This article is from 2019. Back then, it was the Dems who recognized the dangers of electronic voting machines (EVMs). If the bill had become law, it would have prevented some (of course not all) of the problems that Sidney Powell highlighted in her latest filings.

The irony is that the bill never became law because Mitch McConnell didn't even let it come to a vote. The GOPe was completely okay with hackable EVMs as long as they were confident that the beneficiaries of vote rigging would all be Republicans.

For 2021: Will a bill like this now pass the Senate, only to be buried by Pelosi? Could happen.

Maybe this bill was passed by the Liberals as a cover for what they knew was going to happen.

I'm sure the dems knew it wouldn't fly.

To be honest -> I'm sure there are plenty of Republicans guilty of all this stuff too. Who knows - maybe Kemp won this way? Maybe Stacey made a deal - couldn't prove it but they agreed this election was her turn to control the knobs.

I'm not saying that's TRUE ... just that the fact that it's entirely plausible means that -> YES dem policy will destroy the country, but that doesn't mean much of the Republican party is not disgusting and corrupt too.

Democrats have been the election-fraud party since at least 1960. If they were for the 2019 bill, it was a scam.

“Voter-verified paper ballots” do not equal security. This is what they used in CA in 2020, when the State mailed unsolicited ballots for every registration, no matter how out-of-date or duplicate. The ballots were easily harvested.

I’m glad that they voted for using paper ballots.

However, what is in the legislation that prevented Republicans from voting in favour?

What does the bill say beyond the first paragraph? I trust nothing coming from democraps. No doubt it had voting for Guatemalans and banning signature and/or ID checking.

I’ve never liked voting machines. I’m OK with hand filled ballots and tabulator boxes like they use in NM where you keep the original ballots in case of recounts, but I’ve seen it myself where the stupid computerized machines will be at least defective and try to register the wrong vote. And do you really trust or know whether it’s actually tabulating the vote you selected? An ink and paper hand-filled ballot is visible and obvious to the voter.

This has been mentioned a number of times, with the comments being that other provisions within it would have mandated compromise of the election systems nation-wide, instead of just the states that did it to themselves.

I do not trust any “Election Assistance Commission.” On the face of it, a swipe at the common citizen deemed incapable of voting and counting. This commission is in need of investigation, and most likely dismemberment. Who are these people? What are their convictions?

The ProgsDems always play the long game. It may be a perfectly honest bill. But the Dems goal is to federalize elections. Once the fed controls elections then the elections will be run by those who control the Fed i.e. Democrats.

Once the Dems control the election they can then go full Banana Republic.

Interesting.

Twelve and Fourteenth amendments. Signing of those two EOs back in 2018.

13849 or six, not sure.

We live in interesting times.
