David Barton, a devout (and devious) Christian, is desperately encouraging his followers to vote for Donald Trump at this year's presidential election. He is claiming that there was a 100% voter turnout during the first 200 years in America, and now it is time for Christians to ensure that the same thing happens again in 2016. He says,
So, in our case, as Christians, we don't have a right to vote, we have a responsibility to vote ... And that’s why you will find that for the first 200 years after we started having votes in America, voter turnout in America was 100 percent.

It's all bullshit though. Voter turnout in America has never been close to 100%. It occasionally reaches 80% but it has also been as low as 6.3%. David Barton (devout and devious Christian) is once again "telling lies for Jesus".
