The stomach-turning 'ballot-harvesting' that enabled Democrats to walk off with California
American Thinker ^ | 12/03/2018 | Monica Showalter

The picture emerging from California's election is grotesque. How again did Democrats engineer their strange midterm victory in Orange County and in other traditionally Republican areas? In that election, apparently-winning Republican candidates were all unseated as the ballots just kept arriving, and arriving, and arriving, until the results flipped. Each and every time. And no such flips happened for Republicans, just Democrats, after Democratic operatives had enough information from televised results to know that Republicans were winning. Democrats say it's just 'counting all the votes.'

Welcome to ballot-harvesting.

The Daily Caller has an ace report with a video showing just how that's done:

Attorney Robert Barnes, on Twitter, noted just how problematic that new practice is:

 

Cali new law for 2018 election "allow anybody to walk into an elections office and hand over truckloads of vote by mail envelopes with ballots inside, no questions asked, no verified records kept. It amounts to an open invitation to large-scale vote buying, voter coercion" — Robert Barnes (@Barnes_Law) December 2, 2018

 

Which is why it's illegal almost everywhere in the world. California, on the other hand, back in 2016, passed AB1921, a law that actually permits it. Anyone can turn in ballots now, no questions asked, no chain of custody required. Back at the time, Democrats were hollering about low turnout and how getting more turnout was a priority, even though they were running a one-party state at that time, as they are now. They painted themselves as all concerned about 'democracy' given the low rates of turnout in their districts, many of which were known as 'rotten boroughs' full of non-citizen voters.

But what they really had in mind was 'ballot harvesting.' Most of the attention at the time from Republicans was focused on the involuntary registration of voters through the Department of Motor Vehicles, which has led to what was feared: the registration of illegal immigrants. But the bigger thing was going on on the outside, with the mail-in ballots nobody asked for and the apparent real purpose for these unasked for and unwanted ballots, which was ... ballot-harvesting.

Should be outlawed for federal elections - but no chance of that now.

If no one is going to do anything about it, then it’s going to continue and expand.

Kalifornia passed ‘motor voter’ many, many moons ago, whereby when one obtains or renews the driver’s license, one is automatically registered to vote. Kalifornia then made it ‘legal’ for illegal trespassing crimigrants to have ‘legal’ driver licenses. Presto chango, illegal trespassing crimigrants get to vote! Just last week I learned that even when a person goes to the DMV for just the Kalifornia ID card, they insist you register to vote! But, it gets even better (worse). My client, a developmentally challenged woman, obtained her new Kalifornia ID at the DMV, and they insisted she also register. Gee, I wonder just what political party the creepozoids at the DMV chose? And how many times did she end up ‘voting?’ Creepozoids All.

It’s about to not matter. They are just jumping slightly ahead of their demographic replacement plan. Trump makes them nervous, so they are pushing. Why not? They usually get away with it, and it distracts everyone from their primary plan.

Exactly. And when we fully enter in WROL - there will be 10 million dead leftists and a full govt. reboot.

the American people as a whole need to wake up to the fact that the DNC political machine has figured out how to rig elections ... and will do it anytime and anywhere they want....
we used to criticize rigged elections in communist and Muslim dictatorships...
now we is one...

If this is true then it needs to be addressed by Republicans. Pursue legal action. Otherwise this is just lies and rumors. I’m in California and Republicans all over the place need to not only get a serious spine. But also need to come up with a war plan and start turning around this BS. Otherwise call the WAAAAMBULANCE.

The only way people wake up is if they are WOKEN up. If the Republicans want to win elections, they need to start showing the heck up with a message that clarifies these issues and with a solid winning strategy. American people are sadly force fed and stay that way. We need to do better as conservatives.

Limbaugh’s pet theory since the Trump election is that leftists will adopt the line that governance is too important to be left to the vagaries of elections.

I think he’s mistaken. Instead, we will see more of exactly what we’ve see already:

-Corruption at the lowest levels eg county recorders. It doesn’t hurt the leftist cause that many local officials are ignorant, lazy and self-important and susceptible to such corruption.

-Lawsuits and delays will become automatic when the slightest turn of momentum goes against a leftist candidate even in an otherwise ironclad election.

-Fraudulent votes produced by any means possible - absentee, provisional, machine malfunction. Recounts and verifications will be correspondingly slow while officials make flimsy excuses. Stopping fraudulent votes will be like trying to catch every piece of confetti at the Super Bowl before it touches the ground.

There’s no need to overthrow the system and risk a backlash when the system can be merely overwhelmed and the opposition merely goes crazy trying to catch up and eventually gives up.

No chain of custody on the ballots? No cutoff time after the polls (supposedly) close?

I can see the headline now; stacks, crates, shipping containers full of mail-in ballots arrive, ALL for Hillary.

DJT has until noon to vacate the WH.

This is just the tip of the iceberg regarding the large scale voter fraud in the 2018 midterms.

The entire election was fraudulent.

Voter fraud was massive.

“the American people as a whole need to wake up to...” a whole lot of things in addition to vote fraud.

But they won’t, not until they feel actual loss one day (financial, liberty, health). By then, it’ll be wayyyy to late.
