Senator to Election Integrity Commission: 'Jump in The Lake'

Sen. Amy Klobuchar, D-Minn., rebuked the Presidential Advisory Commission on Election Integrity's request for voter registration data from states.

"I just ask my fellow citizens. This Fourth of July week, find the body of water nearest you, and go tell the commission: Jump in the lake," Klobuchar said in the video.

The Presidential Advisory Commission sent letters to all 50 secretaries of state, asking for names, addresses, birth dates, felony convictions, the last four digits of Social Security numbers, and voting records back to 2006 of registered voters in those states, according to The Washington Post.

As of Friday, at least 25 states have challenged the request or refused to comply with it.

President Donald Trump formed the commission to probe his allegations that voter fraud was widespread, according to The Post.

On Saturday, President Donald Trump questioned the states that refused to turn over the data. "What are they trying to hide?" he tweeted.

Numerous states are refusing to give information to the very distinguished VOTER FRAUD PANEL. What are they trying to hide?
