White House provides 'enormous' evidence of voter fraud: Adviser

White House policy adviser Stephen Miller has said that the Trump administration has provided “enormous” evidence of widespread voter fraud that according to President Donald Trump cost him the popular vote during the November 8 election.  

“The White House has provided enormous evidence with respect to voter fraud, with respect to people being registered in more than one state,” Miller told ABC News on Sunday.

“Dead people voting, non-citizens being registered to vote.  George, it is a fact and you will not deny it that there are massive numbers of non-citizens in this country who are registered to vote,” he told host George Stephanopoulos.

But Stephanopoulos pushed back against Miller, and told him the Trump administration did not provide evidence of widespread voter fraud.

“You have provided zero evidence of the president’s claim that he would’ve won the general — the popular vote if 3 [million] to 5 million illegal immigrants hadn’t voted. Zero evidence for either one of those claims,” Stephanopoulos said.

President Trump has come under pressure to provide evidence of voter fraud after he claimed that voters were bused into New Hampshire, costing him a victory in the state.

During a private lunch meeting with a bipartisan group of 10 senators on Thursday, Trump reportedly suggested that he and Republican Senator Kelly Ayotte would have won New Hampshire in the November elections if not for the “thousands” of people who were “brought in on buses” from neighboring Massachusetts to “illegally” vote in the battleground state.

Trump received 46.5 percent of the vote in New Hampshire, while Democratic nominee Hillary Clinton won 46.8 percent and carried the state's four electoral votes.

This is not the first time Trump has made allegations of voter fraud. In a meeting with members of Congress last month, the president claimed that 3 to 5 million had voted illegally in the 2016 election, causing him to lose the popular vote to Clinton.

As a candidate, Trump also repeatedly raised the specter of widespread voter fraud during early voting across the country.

On Election Day, Trump accused the media of ignoring “serious voter fraud” in California, New Hampshire and Virginia.

The outcome of the November vote has also been questioned by Democrats, who have blamed their defeat on foreign influence, particularly the alleged Russian intervention in the election in favor of Trump.
