Ken Cuccinelli, the Republican Attorney General of Virginia, agreed with WMAL radio host
Cheri Jacobus Tuesday when she insinuated that President Obama may have illegitimately won the election through lenient voting laws.
Jacobus stated, “He can’t win a state where photo ID is required. So
clearly there’s something going on out there.” In fact, President Obama
won Michigan and Florida, both of which have voter identification laws.
Jacobus’ co-host
Brian Wilson claimed to have received several emails from listeners wishing to report voter fraud.
He then asked Cuccinelli,
“When you hear these kinds of stories, one wonders, why isn’t there a
way for the Attorney General of the commonwealth of Virginia to get
involved and to look into these matters?”
Cuccinelli told Wilson he was unable to investigate election
violations unless state officials first requested an inquiry, but agreed
that there “ought to be a way” for him to look into these matters.
After Jacobus seemingly became angry with him for not investigating the
voter fraud allegations, Cuccinelli stated, ”Your tone suggests you’re a
little upset with me. You’re preaching to the choir. I’m with you
completely.”
After the interview,
Noah Wall, political spokesman for Cuccinnelli,
said in an email that Cuccinelli never meant to question the legality of President
Barack Obama‘s
campaign: ”There is no question that President Obama legitimately won
re-election. Ken was simply talking about the fact that there were
problems on election day which need to be addressed.”
