    North Carolina elections chief says 'It is illegal to vote twice in an election' after Trump comment on double voting

    A day after President Donald Trump appeared to encourage supporters in North Carolina to both mail in ballots and vote in person, the state's Board of Elections issued a statement Thursday telling voters it is illegal to vote in an election twice.

    "It is illegal to vote twice in an election," said Karen Brinson Bell, executive director of the North Carolina State Board of Elections. Bell said state law made it a "Class I felony" for a voter, "with intent to commit a fraud to register or vote at more than one precinct or more than one time ... in the same primary or election."

    "Attempting to vote twice in an election or soliciting someone to do so also is a violation of North Carolina law," Brinson Bell added.

    After arriving in Wilmington, North Carolina, on Wednesday, Trump told local station WECT that voters in the state should test their state's election system by voting once by mail, then trying to vote a second time in person.

    "Let them send it in and let them go vote, and if the system is as good as they say it is, then obviously they won't be able to vote," Trump said.

    Trump has repeatedly said an increase in mailed-in ballots due to COVID-19 concerns could lead to widespread fraud. But most experts say incidents of such fraud are rare and unlikely to be successful on a statistically significant scale.

    Brinson Bell said there are "numerous checks in place in North Carolina that prevent people from double voting," including pollbooks at every early voting site that says who has already cast their ballots. If a voter tries to check in at a polling site and it indicates they have already voted, they will be given a provisional ballot instead of a regular one, she said.

    The provisional ballot will then "be researched after Election Day to determine whether it should be counted," Brinson Bell said.

    "On Election Day, voters who have voted absentee are removed from the pollbook, which is updated before voting starts at 6:30 a.m. Absentee ballots that are received on Election Day are not counted until after the election, and this prevents double voting," she added.

    In addition, the board conducts audits after each election that "check voter history against ballots cast and would detect if someone tries to vote more than once in an election."

    Brinson Bell said "if someone tries to get around the system" their mailed-in ballot "can be retrieved and not counted, so it will not affect the outcome of an election." An Elections Board investigations team looks into alleged incidents of double voting and can refer cases to prosecutors if they think further action is warranted.

    Brinson Bell said if voters request to vote by mail but change their mind, they should discard the absentee ballot, not mail it in, and vote in person instead. She concluded by giving voters instructions on how they can check the status of a mailed-in ballot.

    Trump skewers Biden, suggests again supporters vote twice in Pennsylvania

    “Sign your mail-in ballot, OK? You sign it and send it in and then you have to follow it. And if on election day or early voting, that is not tabulated and counted, you go vote,” Trump told the crowd. “And if for some reason after that — it shouldn’t take that long — they’re not going to be able to tabulate it because you would have voted.”

    No it's to prevent the crime of fraud on the mailed in votes. If you mailed it in and on the day of the vote November 3 it's still not registered then it's probably in the process of election fraud crime by the state. If it is registered (counted) on Nov. 3 you won't be able to vote so you won't be able to commit a crime. If it isn't counted yet then you are making sure their crime does not count. If they end up counting twice that's their mistake cause the system is not supposed to be fallable like that.

    Why didn't Trump's voter fraud commission find this fraud?
