The California Republican stressed there is a “huge problem in getting elections accurate,” prompting a skeptical Cuomo to challenge him.
“So you believe that millions of people voted illegally? You believe that?” the CNN anchor said.

The two went back and forth over just how pervasive the problem of illegal voting is.
“Chris, I love you, but you’re in fact talking about dozens and saying, out of 320 million Americans, it is a lot more than dozens,” Issa said at one point. “In my own state, in my own election, I had a pair of ballots where obviously a spouse voted for their dead husband.

Playing off of Issa’s point on accurate elections, Cuomo told Issa he would send him studies hat back up his claim of much smaller numbers.
