In reply to the discussion: FWIW Homeland Security releases info on Ian Roberts [View all]bigtree
(92,996 posts)35. prove it to me.
this is who made the charge:
Maryland Republican Del. Lauren Arikan claimed Roberts is currently on the voter roll, according to WJZ-TV in Baltimore.
"The Maryland Freedom Caucus looked him up in the system, and found that he had been an active voter for more than a decade, it looks like," Arikan said.

Md. State Board of Elections sent a statement to Fox News Digital that a review of public information available through Marylands Public Information Act "did not show any voting history for any individual with the name Ian Andre Roberts in Maryland."
The statement further said that due to Maryland law protecting personal identifying information from disclosure, SBE "cannot and will not publicly announce whether media reports about the individual in question is or is not or was or was not a registered voter in Maryland."
Finally, SBE noted that according to Maryland law, it is not a crime to unintentionally register to vote despite not being eligible. The office added that "the right to vote is a sacred right that has been expanded through sacrifices of many before us" and "this office will not disenfranchise a voter based upon partial or unsubstantiated evidence."

I wasn't referring to "wait and see" as that is the only reasonable thing to do until the facts are known.

It wasn't just his criminal record and work authorization. He lied about his citizenship, his degrees and awards

You don't think a major school system hiring a superintendent with falsified resume, & criminal history is newsworthy?

If he had actually been deported a year ago when the orders were issued, I doubt it would have even been national news
