America’s electoral obsession isn’t Russian meddling anymore. It’s ballot-harvesting, a long-disputed practice implicated in fraud that’s come to the fore with the nationwide embrace of absentee voting in recent years — and especially in last month’s midterms.
With ballot-harvesting, paper votes are collected by intermediaries who deliver them to polling officials, presumably increasing voter turnout but also creating opportunities for mischief.

Ballot harvesting is just one method of voter fraud. It is estimated that several million fraudulent votes were cast in recent elections and it is getting worse.
This is looking at the problem through a microscope. The real title should be “How the Democrat Party became America’s Premiere Criminal Organization for 180 Years”.
It's like the loaves and the fishes, only different.
George Washington on the Baneful Effects of Political Parties
“Let me now take a more comprehensive view, and warn you in the most solemn manner against the baneful effects of the Spirit of Party...”
Excerpts from George Washington’s Farewell Address
September 19, 1796
“... One of the expedients of Party to acquire influence, within particular districts, is to misrepresent the opinions & aims of other Districts. You cannot shield yourselves too much against the jealousies & heart burnings which spring from these misrepresentations. They tend to render Alien to each other those who ought to be bound together by fraternal Affection.
...
“All obstructions to the execution of the Laws, all combinations and Associations, under whatever plausible character, with the real design to direct, controul counteract, or awe the regular deliberation and action of the Constituted authorities are distructive of this fundamental principle and of fatal tendency. They serve to Organize faction, to give it an artificial and extraordinary force — to put in the place of the delegated will of the Nation, the will of a party; often a small but artful and enterprizing minority of the Community; and, according to the alternate triumphs of different parties, to make the public Administration the Mirror of the ill concerted and incongruous projects of faction, rather than the Organ of consistent and wholesome plans digested by common councils and modefied by mutual interests. However combinations or Associations of the above description may now & then answer popular ends, they are likely, in the course of time and things, to become potent engines, by which cunning, ambitious and unprincipled men will be enabled to subvert the Power of the People, & to usurp for themselves the reins of Government; destroying afterwards the very engines which have lifted them to unjust dominion.“... in a country so extensive as ours, a Government of as much vigour as is consistent with the perfect security of Liberty is indispensable — Liberty itself will find in such a Government, with powers properly distributed and adjusted, its surest Guardian. It is indeed little else than a name, where the Government is too feeble to withstand the enterprises of faction ...
“I have already intimated to you the danger of Parties in the State, with particular reference to the founding of them on Geographical discriminations. Let me now take a more comprehensive view, & warn you in the most solemn manner against the baneful effects of the Spirit of Party, generally.
“This Spirit, unfortunately, is inseperable from our nature, having its root in the strongest passions of the human Mind. It exists under different shapes in all Governments, more or less stifled, controuled, or repressed; but in those of the popular form it is seen in its greatest rankness and is truly their worst enemy.
“The alternate domination of one faction over another, sharpened by the spirit of revenge natural to party dissention, which in different ages & countries has perpetrated the most horrid enormities, is itself a frightful despotism. But this leads at length to a more formal and permanent despotism. The disorders & miseries, which result, gradually incline the minds of men to seek security & repose in the absolute power of an Individual: and sooner or later the chief of some prevailing faction more able or more fortunate than his competitors, turns this disposition to the purposes of his own elevation, on the ruins of Public Liberty.
“Without looking forward to an extremity of this kind (which nevertheless ought not to be entirely out of sight) the common & continual mischiefs of the spirit of Party are sufficient to make it the interest and the duty of a wise People to discourage and restrain it.
“It serves always to distract the Public Councils and enfeeble the Public Administration. It agitates the Community with ill founded Jealousies and false alarms, kindles the animosity of one part against another, foments occasionally riot & insurrection. It opens the door to foreign influence & corruption, which find a facilitated access to the government itself through the channels of party passions. Thus the policy and the will of one country, are subjected to the policy and will of another.
“There is an opinion that parties in free countries are useful checks upon the Administration of the Government and serve to keep alive the spirit of Liberty. This within certain limits is probably true--and in Governments of a Monarchical cast Patriotism may look with endulgence, if not with favour, upon the spirit of party. But in those of the popular character, in Governments purely elective, it is a spirit not to be encouraged. From their natural tendency, it is certain there will always be enough of that spirit for every salutary purpose. And there being constant danger of excess, the effort ought to be, by force of public opinion, to mitigate & assuage it. A fire not to be quenched; it demands a uniform vigilance to prevent its bursting into a flame, lest instead of warming it should consume."
This should be thoroughly investigation and prosecuted
F Mueller, what BS
This is the REAL THREAT to “our democracy” as the Dimwitz like to call it.
Yet, where’s THE OUTRAGE? MR PRESIDENT? Others?
SPEAK UP DAMMIT INVESTIGATE AND PROSECUTE
I don’t get it. If it were the R’s pulling this crap, the D’s would be filing bazillions of law suits. Like that guy in Maine who got the most votes and lost because of the cheating process they have there. It’s time for lawsuits over voter fraud and these cheating ways the libs have come up with. Otherwise it will embolden them to do this everywhere.
Then they go to those homes and ask to deliver the ballot. If republican and filled in it gets filed in the shredder, if not filled in, it gets filled in and submitted.
If dems, easier task, see above.
There is no custody chain, and no one to overlook.If there was a registered republican and dem representative, it could work, but with one person, of either registry, it is totally and only a matter of trust, for the whole enchilada.
And don't even go there with the whole two weeks later bullshit!
This must end.
Does anybody really believe all the provisional ballots that flood in after the polls close are verified to be real legitimate voters?
We have an Election Day. We’ve had it that way for years. Everyone knows when it is. You go vote. At the end of the day when the polls close, it is OVER...that’s it. IF you didn’t go vote, tough shit....shame on you. In this modern digital day and age, we should be able to see who won in a matter of minutes.
This “harvesting” fraud BS needs to cease...and cease now. IF it doesn’t, it’s gonna get verrrrry ugly.
since there is no chain of custody, the practice is ballot fabrication
OFFICIAL REVERSE BALLOT HARVESTING
1) Locate vulnerable SWING districts
2) Organize Suburban & Rural Republicans
3) Register Democrat or Independent: optional
Before Election Day ...
DEMOCRAT
4) Go door to door and collect Democrat ballots in the Big City, Swing District.
5) Celebrate with a bonfire.
REPUBLICAN
6) Collect many blank Provisional Ballots
7) DuckDuckGo search RandomNameGenerator
8) Submit Republican ballots in the Swing District
Any questions need one response, “I don’t recall.”
Democrat Judges are CRIMINAL FRAUDS who ban all forms of PROOF for Election Fraud. That is the Scam Democrat criminal Judges run.
REPUBLICAN
9) Teach Republicans to never give up their ballot to a third party.
10) Or trust only a Voter ID Card person, and smart phone picture the card, then release ballot.
DEMOCRAT
11) Tell Democrats to release their ballot, when asked, for fairness to help the poor and elderly. If they are neither, ask them for the ballots anyway.
Alinsky said beat your opponent with their own criminal rules. Democrats are far more vulnerable to harvest fraud because they are more ignorant.
VOTER ID
This establishes an Informal Voter ID system.
Democrats get nothing. Republicans get integrity.
Criminal Judges should get the death penalty for each Voter Proof they ban.
And never forget,
silence is best,
“I don’t recall”,
“I don’t know”.
Print this out and distribute it.
Republicans could have addressed this and so many other issues during the last two years.
But for the most part they fiddled the opportunity away.
Their plan all along has been to figure out some way to appear interested and involved while working behind the scenes to oppose President Trump
and make sure democrats won a House majority last month.
Question for anyone that knows or has comments about local procedures.
Are paper ballots used that much any more? I thought
most or many used some type of electronic machine etc.
Here is a listing by state and type voting procedure used.
I was surprised at the number of paper ballots used.
https://ballotpedia.org/Voting_methods_and_equipment_by_state
The only absentee voting that should be allowed should have a cut-off date at least a week before election date, with the voter appearing in person to vote at the voter registrar’s office.
None of this counting votes for days after the election is over.
In Wisconsin some people received at least 6 ballots ...
