The Election Denier Who Could Run Michigan’s Elections
The Atlantic ^ | 5/22/22 | Elaine Godfrey

In the weeks after the 2020 election, one particular Michigan woman was trumpeting claims of fraud as loudly as she could. Kristina Karamo, a community-college professor who’d previously accused Democrats of having a “Satanic agenda,” went on Fox News again and again to describe how illegal ballots supposedly had been tallied for Joe Biden at the TCF Center in Detroit, where she worked as a poll watcher. She testified before the State Senate that sacks of votes inexplicably had been dropped off there in the middle of Election Night. She suggested that Dominion Voting software had flipped Trump votes to Biden votes statewide.

None of what Karamo described actually happened - as far as anyone has been able to confirm. Her story served its purpose, though: Karamo has spent the past year campaigning to be Michigan’s next secretary of state. Some people might have dismissed her, at first, as just another down-ballot conspiracy kook with no chance of winning her party’s primary. But last month, the Michigan Republican Party chose Karamo as its nominee. Barring any changes at an upcoming convention in August, and with Republicans poised to have a strong midterm election year, Karamo has a shot at victory in November.

Michigan’s next election chief, in other words, might be one of its foremost election-conspiracy theorists. And what happens in this swing state in 2024 could tip the entire presidential outcome. “One thing the last six years has taught me is you never say never,” Jeff Timmer, a former executive director of the Michigan Republican Party who has been highly critical of the GOP’s new direction, told me this week. “Crazy is powerful, and it doesn’t get tired.”

Donald Trump is the main reason Karamo has gotten this far.

The opening sentence of the article refers to Karamo as an unknown “poll watcher.”

What requirement or expectation is there that she be known? Seems to me, she’s no longer unknown.

These people cannot help themselves in furtherance of their “Big Lie” narrative.

It’s up to us to cram it down their throats.

The 2020 election was stolen! Very soon we will have the names of not only the mules, but of the ballot distribution 501C3 organizations driving the fraud.

They are already “Singing like Canaries” in AZ, as they have already initiated law enforcement raids.

Most of the fraudsters involved are busted and they don’t yet know it. That said, many are busted and do know it, and are sitting around waiting for their door to be kicked in.

It is feasible to suggest that we are just beginning to see how long and how deep the voting fraud really is on both a state and national level. In 2020 the election thieves had all the latest data they would need down to the precinct level.

One thing you never really hear about either is the rat-on-rat scandals behind the scenes both here in MI and nationally...you think that Dingell and Conyers really won every election primary by a landslide in well over a century combined? There was some 12 redistricting acts in the meantime too, I see why people stay home.

Democrats are criminals and republicans are mostly worthless - the ones who aren’t criminals themselves..
