Grassley skeptical of Trump election panel aims
Sen. Chuck Grassley said he has no expectations for the Commission on Election Integrity created by executive order. He supports cleaning up voter rolls to prevent fraud but questions the panel's goals while noting minor irregularities and cross state matches found in a 28 state review. Grassley also announced July 26 hearings for Donald Trump Jr. and Paul Manafort before the Senate Judiciary Committee.
