A Gigantic Egg All Over Brad Raffensperger's Face
American Thinker ^ | 20 Mar, 2023 | Jay Valentine

Posted on 03/20/2023 5:16:51 AM PDT by MtnClimber

Last week, when Georgia secretary of state Brad Raffensperger publicly supported ERIC after it was tossed out of Florida, West Virginia, and Missouri, we issued the Raffensperger Challenge.

The Raffensperger Challenge is the application of Fractal analysis to any entity that currently uses ERIC.

This week, we finished the first, in Washoe County, Nevada.

Brad Raffensperger says anyone outing ERIC is "extremist."

Today, two more extremists joined in: the secretaries of state of Iowa and Ohio. Looks like lots of extremists showing up for work.

Is there anyone in politics who believes that elected officials in the two most benign states of Iowa and Ohio are extremist? It is more like an attack of the moderates — as if moderates could attack anything.

Much in our complex lives is a matter of opinion. Still, there are a few things that are a matter of data, and we are so looking forward to helping Brad Raffensperger, and the diminishing remaining Republican secretaries of state, see how useless ERIC truly is.

This week, we finished the first Raffensperger Challenge — in ERIC "cleaned" Washoe County, Nevada.

Let's go there.

This is a county with about 600,000 people on the voter rolls.

Many are C = cancelled, others I = inactive.

Our friends there want to include all voters in the analysis, since we have such a deep history of secretaries of state converting inactive voters to "active," voting them, and turning them back to inactive.

Every person on every Nevada voter roll we examined was "cleaned" by ERIC. Not a couple of them, not the left-handed ones, but every single voter was ERIC-certified as being a real person, protected by our laws and needs to vote.

-People registered in vacant lots: over 4,200

-Registered in hotels: over 2,000

-Registered in parking lots: over 2,500

-Registered in R.V. parks: 1,600

Amazing how voter rolls — cleaned by ERIC — grow voters like barnacles in hotels and vacant lots up to an even-year election date — then they disappear afterward. This is in the data!

The vote fraudsters don’t look like they will give up until they are behind bars or at the end of a rope.

Getting rid of ERIC is a good start.

But anyone know if RCV-enabled voting machines are still in use in the states that have or are getting rid of ERIC...?

"This week, we finished the first Raffensperger Challenge — in ERIC "cleaned" Washoe County, Nevada.

In reality, this is a county with 301,000 active voters currently "on the voter rolls" (as of 2/28/2023) and another 62,000 who are listed as inactive. Nowhere near a total of 600,000.

Nevada voter registration statistics

If someone is going to try to convince people that ERIC is a Democrat trojan horse to inflate voter rolls (which it is) and should be stopped dead in its tracks (which it should), maybe they should start out by sticking to the facts instead of hyperventilating that a county with a TOTAL population of not even 500,000 somehow has over 600,000 voters.

At least they could provide a link to the alleged data.

Brad Raffensperger is a Democrat assistant who needs to be cleansed from the Republican Party. He probably receives more votes from Democrats voters than he does Republican voters.

I’m not familiar with the specifics obivously, but they said in the article that the 600k included inactive and canceled registrations not just active and inactive. The Nevada SOS doesn’t list registrations that have been canceled. The claim is that some of the “canceled” registrations magically become active when the election occurs, then go back to canceled afterwards.

That would be a serious problem — and an even better reason to supply a link to the data so we can determine the scope of “canceled” voters.

In Washoe County, close to 80% of the voting age population are on the rolls as active voters. Nationally, this is not an abnormal figure by any means.

But if ERIC can expand Democrat vote fraud possibilities by fudging up just a comparatively small number of fictitious voters, that may be all it takes to swing an election outcome in this state which historically has very close outcomes all over the place — which the Republicans nearly always lose aside from occasionally getting some GOPe squish as Governor (rendered impotent by the legislature anyway).

Democrats would be smarter to have ERIC spend its time in Clark County rather than Washoe — and I’m sure it does — because far more elections can be skewed in that manner, and in such a large county the fraud would be easier to conceal.

In both counties, especially Clark, the number of active registrations has already exploded since 2018.

I concur with both options. However I prefer the ‘air dance’ solution because unless the consequences are severe, no change will happen. A short time in a country club detention facility discourages no one.

I’ve been saying it for years.

Since Democrats insist there is no vote fraud then propose a new law requiring MANDATORY MINIMUM 20 YEARS jail for *ANY* government fraud (including vote fraud)

There should be no objections since they claim there is none and any cases actually found are rare.

But this would at very least give people some grave concern about doing it. No more 3 month ‘slap on the wrist’ followed by a standing ovation from a crowd of democrats.

Got that? a crowd of democrats gave a STANDING OVATION to someone who was convicted of committing vote fraud.

I would also be OK with a one-year amnesty for those that turn themselves in- as long as they expose the people who helped.

AND for monetary fraud, I would propose a 10% reward for any department that CUTS it’s budget. They get to keep 10 percent distributed among their department, as a bonus for saving government money. No more ‘spend it or lose it’

Good analysis. Problem is, you are too logical and cite actual facts. We like hyperventilating on FR. Everything is a giant conspiracy by the The Deep State and running in circles, screaming and shouting is the only logical response.

Make me king for a day and:

- voters must affirnatively register in EVERY election, proving citizenship, residency, and qualifications to vote, checked against multi-state databases and contestable by ANY PERSON who is in the same state.

- Restore Election Day. Only in-person voting allowed, at approved polling locations, with state-issued photo i.d., on Election Day ONLY, excepted by a very few outlier allowances which must be documented and notarized.

- new (restored) voting age of 21, no exceptions. I don't care if you're old enough to fight in a war. Everyone has specific responsibilities, and there are a lot of highly immature people entering the military at 18, 19, and 20.

- College students get special scrutiny as to their true residence of record. If they register at their college residence, they will not be allowed to vote until they affirmatively cancel their old voter registration at their home address.

This is only a preliminary list.

Kemp and Raffensperger have done a dirty Dominion deal where they get to keep their cushy state jobs and Dems "win" the two Senate spots.

And we're told that rabid leftists won those Senate seats because the people of Georgia "split their tickets." Yeah, right.

No kidding. Look at Democrat election fraudster Meloweese Richardson of Cincinnati. She was sprung from jail way early and then got raucous applause and accolades when she was recognized at a Democratic public event. She would have remained a nobody except for her crime.

People need to understand. Raffensperger and his ilk are not just misinformed and wrong. They are lying with purpose. He is a rat soldier who used his office to give Ga to the Dems. Issuing challenges to people like Raffensperger is futile and naive

I think that some of the "suggestions" ignore the new reality we are in regarding proof of citizenship. For example, you need a "Real ID" to board an aircraft, and potentially this will be extended to passenger trains.

Getting a RealID is not hard. I found that out years ago when it first started being pushed: my (now renewed) drivers license has that little star that says "citizen".

So the list of vote reforms can be shortened:

I'm not holding my breath.
