Homeland eyes special declaration to take charge of elections
washingtonexaminer.com ^ | 8/30/16 | Paul Bedard

Even before the FBI identified new cyber attacks on two separate state election boards, the Department of Homeland Security began considering declaring the election a "critical infrastructure," giving it the same control over security it has over Wall Street and and the electric power grid.

The latest admissions of attacks could speed up that effort possibly including the upcoming presidential election, according to officials.

"We should carefully consider whether our election system, our election process, is critical infrastructure like the financial sector, like the power grid," Homeland Security Secretary Jeh Johnson said.

Is this where Obama declares an emergency and cancels the election?

The government creating a circumstance to step in and take over is kind of old; you would think they could think up something new. Waiting for Ryan and McConnell to ride in with the calvary.

Opening salvo to rig the election. Yes, we will have an election, but it will be patterned after what happens in Latin America.

This is admitting we no longer have electoral integrity. Welcome to Big Brotherland. You must trust!

DHS:

You trusted us to keep invaders OUT —instead we brought them IN.

You’re charging us to keep the election HONEST —instead we will..........

FILL IN THE BLANK.

I forgot to remind everyone — Homeland Security is the Obama administration.

Homeland takes charge, the vote count is held in secret, and hillary is ‘declared’ the winner.

The true votes are hidden away forever, along with obama’s birth certificate and proof of citizenship.

This stuff is already old. It’s been going on since the days of the Roman Empire.

What could go wrong with Obama and his loyal minions supervising what may be the last American election?

Tonight I did a webinar for a voter fraud prevention organization and it brought up on this type of cyber danger.

Oh, now isn’t that an interesting observation: DHS can’t go declaring it critical infrastructure and then _not_ require voter ID.

No way, not his style. But, how about a Federally managed "impartial" recount?

How about controlling only certain precincts and counties for certain EC-valuable states.

You know. Like in a state with a non-Trump supporter, like, say, Ohio.

Fox guarding the henhouse?

Even worse.

Handing the control of the election directly to the Democratic Party.....

Thus, the end to free and honest elections........

It’s over folks. It’s over.
