The Blob: Maine Wire Exposes Non-Citizen Voting and Election Vulnerabilities Created by Paroled Illegal Aliens

Maine Wire Editor-in-Chief Steve Robinson joined the Maine Policy Institute’s Pine Tree Pulse Podcast on Friday to explain how we can prove that non-citizens, including legal aliens and paroled illegal aliens, are registered to vote in Maine elections–and some have had votes cast in their names.

In the podcast, Robinson answers many of the questions readers and critics have had about the nature of the reporting, the underlying source documents, and the request from Maine Attorney General Aaron Frey (D) and Secretary of State Shenna Bellows (D) to hand over the identities of non-citizen voters.

Here’s the Oct. 11 letter in which Frey and Bellows, the former head of the American Civil Liberties Union in Maine, asked Robinson to provide information that would reveal the identity of his source for the reporting and allow Frey to prosecute non-citizens.

In response to our report showing that non-citizens are registered to vote — and votes have been cast in their names in Maine since at least 2016 — Maine's AG and Sec. of State Shenna Bellows have asked @TheMaineWire to hand over records which could potentially out sources. pic.twitter.com/iu17JXpVtq

As Robinson explains in the podcast, he will not comply with this request, as doing so would place his sources at risk and expose non-citizens, who may be victims of identity theft, to deportation.

Quick note: In the podcast, Robinson refers to the documents that illegal aliens can file in order to apply for asylum. Those documents are I-589s, not I-598s, as he mistakenly said. The I-589 is an “Application for Asylum and for Withholding of Removal.”

Shenna Bellows is much better at removing Trump from the ballot than she is removing non citizen voters from the voter rolls.

Frey and Bellows don’t need your sources.
They’re the ones facilitating the illegals and could stop it today.

I would believe Mr Robinson sooner and easier than I’d believe Bellows and Frey .
We heard that Bellows is a Soros operative and Frey just another of the shelf democrat tool .
Save your tax dollars VOTE NO ON ALL FOUR referendum questions .
We need to stop spending and start saving .
VOTE NO to change the state flag .
Let’s try to save Maine from these crazy democrats who will destroy our beautiful state .

Benny is correct . We need to spend less and save more . Too much of our Maine tax money is wasted on these “ non profit “ ….” charitable “ …organizations run and staffed by far left loonies . Their pet projects ,like changing the state flag , are all designed to change what we were and are , into what “ they” want us to be . It’s been taken way too far , and now we are up to our eye balls in debt for their socialist pet projects . We need to stop this insanity now . Later may be too late .

Bellows has ZERO achievements in life . She only gets her “Positions ” by being a Militant Feminist Marxist …. The State Legislature is full of them . Only a Genuine Dumbass would vote for any Woman to hold Public Office …. How has it been working out ?

Hi!

I am a “legal” immigrant arriving in Maine as a 3 year old, and spoke ONLY French.

I was born on the French side of Canada right outside of Quebec City.

I became a citizen so I could vote.

I seriously question whether I should vote any longer with all the fraud happening in elections.

I became a citizen at the South Paris Courthouse (State court) where naturalization ceremony belongs lawfully, not federal courts – see the 10 miles square doctrine in Art. 1, Sec. 8, Clause 17 in the federal constitution.

It’s a jurisdictional issue.

NOT taught in schools and more.

My parents NEVER became citizens and NEVER voted as they couldn’t lawfully.

They NEVER attempted to do so.

My older brother was a Canadian citizen at the time he was drafted regarding the Vietnam non-declared war by Congress.

He went without protests as many did who were born in one of these United States.

He was eventually given an ultimatum to either become a citizen or go back to his own country. He chose to become a citizen in Hawaii and later returned to Vietnam.

My younger sister is STILL NOT a citizen; her son is NOW a judge in Maine.

All for now.

Bellows believes that noncitizens be protected by her Remain in Maine policy and that the former POTUS not be allowed to participate in the federal election in the democratic state of Maine. Self serving would define her.
