Beware the ‘Long Count’
American Thinker ^ | 1 Aug, 2023 | Jonathan Gault

Posted on 08/01/2023 5:01:46 AM PDT by MtnClimber

Luckily, the Supreme Court has cleared a path for eradicating the Democrat habit of counting votes long after the election until you win.

The foundation of a free society is, of course, self-government, and the foundation of self-government is when the citizens of that society, via the electoral process, choose who governs them. Therefore, it is essential not only for elections to be fair and competitive but, more importantly, that there is a perception that they are fair. In the United States, this is no longer the case, but the Supreme Court has cleared the path for eradicating the worst fraud and changing the perception.

Both elected officials and unelected bureaucrats often refuse to maintain voter rolls properly while suggesting that non-citizens be permitted to vote. Tech oligarchs pump hundreds of millions of dollars into cities to purposely muddle the election process as they “manage” public opinion via censorship, half-truths, and (their favorite) “misinformation,” meaning any charade they themselves don’t believe.

SNIP

The Long Count is defined as counting votes well past election day. Long Counts took place in these cities (and others) because, said the Democrats, “every vote must be counted,” even though, in many jurisdictions, early voting was available for months prior to election day on November 3, 2020.

Even with modern technology, for some reason, 21st-century Americans are unable to count votes, even over a period of two months, so we now also count votes well past election day. Therein lies the rub… However, considering that we are dealing with modern-day Bolsheviks, for whom, in their quest for unbridled power, the end justifies the means, there may still be hope.

But, with electronic voting there are so many ways to cheat.

Correct, and until electronic voting is BANNED and we return to paper ballots, require ID to vote and have clear, dual-controls over chain of custody of ballots, Democrats will continue to cheat AND WIN elections.

They've mastered it, they've put in the rules and corruptocrats to enforce their crooked rules and until they're stopped (quite literally by ALL means necessary) then nothing gets better.

The way to fix it… every republicans stronghold refuses to complete and report results until the communist cities post final results. Like a bunch of idiots our areas report results by 10 at night on Election Day, then the rats know the number they need.

Drag our feet in rural areas and do not report!

I always wondered why hardly anyone speaks up when the Dems just keep re-counting votes and then stop when their guy wins. This has to stop.

What’s the “path?” Does the article ever get around to that part?

What the author overlooks is that collecting ballots and counting votes BEFORE Election Day is a much bigger problem than counting votes for weeks afterward.

Given the current makeup of the Supreme Court a case based on this long count theory could be a real winner.

Even if there was no cheating in the election process, when a state such as Florida can count 7.5 million votes and have everything completed by midnight of election day and states like Arizona take days or even weeks to count less than one third of the number of votes, it leads a lot of people to believe fraud is involved, which often times there is.

I am convinced, they’re at least 4 areas of the election process that are much more important to reform than electronic voting machines.

Some of those issues were talked about in this article.

My 4 areas are.

Lack of Universal ID verification.
Universal Mail in Voting
Ballot Harvesting
Spoiled or fraudulent voter rolls.

The bottom 3 are the most serious issues, if you have fraudulent voters rolls because dead people are still considered eligible voters, that’s a real problem.

If you have universal mail in voting, those dead people will get mailed a ballot.

Those ballots mailed to dead people will be harvested.

Once they get harvested and turned in, they will get counted and no court in the USA will throw them out.

Once fraudulent ballots get counted, the method of counting doesn’t matter, you can hand count them, you can use electronic voting machines, it won’t matter because fraudulent ballots count the same as real ones.

Notice now this article has less than 10 replies.

If it was a Trump or DeSantis article, it’d be a 50+ bash-fest.

We get the government we deserve.

It’s click bate. It’s like the Supreme Court has all the answers, it’s like they are going to eliminate the “long count”.

The rats are firmly entrenched in many states and major cities. New laws or new rulings will change nothing except forcing the rats to improve their fraud, graft and other felonious behavior. As with any criminal, sooner or later they will have to be physically removed from positions of power.

It’s pretty weak sauce. He finally links to another article about a Supreme Court decision from 1997 about Congress having the ultimate power to define “election day”, and the article tries to extend that to mean that elections that don’t have a final result by that day are void. But of course, only a successful lawsuit before a court could actually make the election “void”, and the courts have shown zero interest in that.

The Trump campaign needs to see this - he would be POTUS today if this article had been in front of his campaign attorneys in 2020. Someone PLEASE get this to a contact high in his campaign.

High tech is the only way to steal a landslide.

The rest is just cover for the high tech.

Centralized counting has to be eliminated. If ballots are counted and REMAIN at the precinct, recounts and audits are accurate. Once ballots are centralized and commingled, their number can be augmented by periodic or mass insertions.

I am not against that, what we need to do is not get sidetracked by pointing to the shiny object that diverts attention from more important issues.

Poll watchers need to be tracking USPS large trucks on election day.

WE do speak up...
The bush league chamber of commerce worshiping republiCAN’Ts that we blindly elect refuse to hear our voices and act.

Why is it this way?
Look in the mirror.
Remember, when you vote for the lesser of two evils, you are still voting for evil.

Democrats could not have stolen anything in 2020 had it not been for RINO-controlled state legislatures rolling over on the cheat-by-mail-in ballots and enforcing voter ID.

Ditto for 2022 (i.e. Kari Lake).

Ditto for 2024?
