Chris Christie: Hillary Clinton 'just wants an opportunity to commit greater acts of voter fraud'

New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie (R) isn't too keen on Hillary Clinton's call to automatically register every American to vote when they turn 18.

Speaking to a group of reporters on Friday, Christie rejected Clinton's claim that Republicans were on "a crusade against voting rights." Clinton specifically mentioned Christie in her remarks, noting his veto of a bill that would have allowed early voting 15 days before New Jersey elections.

"Secretary Clinton doesn't know the first thing about voting rights in New Jersey or in the other states that she attacked," Christie said Friday, according to NorthJersey.com. "My sense is that she just wants an opportunity to commit greater acts of voter fraud around the country." Watch Christie's statement below. Meghan DeMaria
