A former strategist for Sen. John McCain's failed 2008 presidential run had some harsh words for anyone claiming voter fraud is alive and well in the United States.

During a Monday morning appearance on MSNBC, Steve Schmidt criticized the recent spate of voter ID laws, all aiming to fix what creators call a massive problem in America.

"I think that all of this stuff that has transpired over the last two years is in search of a solution to a problem, voting fraud, that doesn’t really exist when you look deeply at the question," Schmidt said in the interview. "It’s part of the mythology now in the Republican Party that there’s widespread voter fraud across the country."

A recent ProPublica investigation found that since 2000, only one case of voter impersonation has been reported for every 15 million votes cast.
