Go On the Offensive In Georgia
Townhall.com ^ | November 12, 2020 | Kurt Schlichter

The battle over this bullSchiff presidential election has had the fringe benefit of exposing exactly what the scams, grifts, and cons the Dems will use to try to steal the January 5, 2021 Georgia Senate run-off elections. What the GOP needs to do is to keep up the fight to count every legal vote in the presidential race while ensuring that the Dems can’t pull off the same scam again in two months. Yeah, we need to do two things at once. Yes, it will be hard. So what?

The political team has plenty of munitions to drop on the two undistinguished Dem losers trying to steal these seats. David Perdue’s opponent Jon Ossoff is a Beto-like weasel, but it’s unclear if he is a furry too and if he gets off dressing like a weasel. He’s one of those shiny, young Democrats who is essentially an empty vessel into which blue state donors can pour money and Chuck Schumer can pour leftism. He tries to play moderate but he’ll dance to whoever is playing the tune – in this case, the Marxist Tabernacle Choir.

Kelly Loeffler’s opponent, Raphael Warnock, is a full-fledged Castro-kissing commie. He did significantly worse than Ossoff in the general, and maybe the wife-abuse accusations had something to do with it. By the way, the garbage Atlanta Journal-Constitution hilariously headlined it this way: “Warnock, wife involved in dispute.” The article text notes that the Democrat “was accused by his wife of running over her foot with his car during a heated argument days before he filed paperwork to officially seek the office.” Yeah, that would technically count as a “dispute” in my book. I’m sure if it was a Republican, the headline would be “Slobbering GOP brute runs over woman in racist hate crime.” Regardless, we have a chance to define the guy trying to abuse the woman as the guy who has abused a woman.

The political advantage is slightly in favor of the GOP, but we have all learned about the magic power of fraud. That’s what we need to go on the offense against. How do we do it? We do what military guys call “preparing the battlefield.” We need to set conditions in advance that will defeat their fraud initiative. And you do that with lawsuits.

Before the last election, the Democrats were practically getting their mail at courthouses they were suing so often to loosen safeguards in order to make it easier to cheat. We need to do that. As we saw in Nevada (where I was) and elsewhere, the best time to get judges to rule to make the election fair is before the election. Afterwards, judges are understandably reluctant to alter or change procedures. But we have two months, folks.

Two months. That’s forever.

I used to tell my troops (and my associates in law practice) that I can get them anything they need to do their job except one thing. I can get money, ammo, experts, air support, whatever. But neither in war nor litigation can I get them more time.

This two-month delay is a gift, as is the Georgia team’s experience with how the Democrat strongholds cheated. Let’s unwrap it.

The Georgia Team now knows the Democrats’ moves. It needs to file multiple lawsuits within the next couple weeks and start demanding remedies for these abuses. It further needs to be organizing a massive poll watcher contingent to observe – and to have orders in hand before election day that they be allowed to observe properly. Also, we need court orders barring any more “Uh, we stopped counting tonight” shenanigans. Further, they should absolutely demand a court order allowing GOP experts a chance to review the Dominion election machine software to ensure they are no surprises therein. How can Democrats be against this transparency if they have nothing to hide?

Of course, they have plenty to hide, and they will #resist. But President Trump can help by ensuring federal marshals are ready to enforce the courts’ orders.

Oh, and there are Dems promising to play residency games to get into the state and vote. We need to be all over that.

The Senate is the Big Enchilada after the presidency. There’s no reason to half-step. We need an aggressive, pre-election legal offensive to ensure that this nonsense does not happen again.

So, what can you do? If you’re a lawyer, you go down there and do lawyer stuff. You might see me there. If you are a regular citizen, you can volunteer to help turn out voters before and then to stand in the counting rooms at 3 a.m. watching. If you are out of state, you can call voters, or you can give money.

You need to do something. Whether the President wins or loses his fight, we still need the Senate. And after seeing the Democrat’s game plan put into action in real time right in front of us, we have no excuse not to beat them at their own game.

The most useless group of people in Georgia is the legislators. We have the majority and still allow this mess of an election to happen. Only state that has runoffs at least in senate seats. Dumb!

I was born and raised in Georgia. There's always been corruption, maybe not on the level of today.

Look at the movie 'Sharky's Machine'. That was about corruption in Georgia, and that was 1981.

Maybe not, but the legislature in Georgia is a worthless bunch of corrupt leeches, so whether he lives in Georgia or not, he was correct.

I think the legislatures of PA, GA, and all other disputed jurisdictions with Republican legislative majorities should vote in Trump’s slates of electors - but, failing that, they should vote in electors pledged to Pence/Trump.

That would kick the election to the House - where there would be three candidates who got EV’s in the Electoral College. Trump, Biden, and Pence. That would deny anyone an EV majority, and kick the question to the House. Where the vote would go one vote per state, and the representatives of PA et al could vote for Pence on the first ballot.

That would present the Democrats the opportunity to get Trump out of the oval office, at the cost of having voted for Pence and having to take responsibility for it. Otherwise, on the second ballot the Republicans vote Trump in - and by not having voted Pence in on the first ballot, the Democrat representatives would have some responsibility for that outcome.

Democrats hate responsibility. They lust for authority, but that is a different thing.

You didn't post to this Georgia native either but you did post your nonsense in a public manner then proceeded to whine when you were called on it. A finer point, you're wrong about the corruption.

Sadly I have lived in GA for 34 years and the mistake people from out of state make is believing that because we have a Republican state house they are conservative. They are no more conservative than a Republican majority in the US House or Senate. The leadership is a bunch of good old boy RINOs. Half of them are Dems that run as republican because it’s easier to get elected. We can’t even get constitutional carry out of committee for a floor vote. So they are not about to remedy the voting corruption.

I want to know the law in Georgia about people being able to vote in Jan for run-off by just moving there. DEMS are telling people to move there to vote in run-off.

I want to know if it is true they can do this- if Georgia legislature can write a law now, post election banning anyone from voting in Jan that didn’t vote in NOv 3rd election.

I see people say they can and others say law says then can just.

Our party was total flop in the election from the SOS, GOv and legislature.

Embarrassing, isn’t it!

Conservatives talk about “State’s rights” - but when it comes time for a state legislature to act like it was authoritative . . .

Instant fetal position. Because "state legislator” is a sinecure they don’t want to endanger.

From PoppaBear3625 comes this jewel -

https://www.legis.state.pa.us/cfdocs/legis/li/uconsCheck.cfm?yr=2019&sessInd=0&act=77

Pennsylvania’s Act 77 of 2019 authorized mail in voting It specifies in Section 7:

“(ii) An absentee ballot cast by any absentee elector as defined in section 1301(i), (j), (k), (l), (m) and (n), an absentee ballot under section 1302(a.3) or a mail-in ballot cast by a mail-in elector shall be canvassed in accordance with this subsection if the absentee ballot or mail-in ballot is received in the office of the county board of elections no later than eight o’clock P.M. on the day of the primary or election.”

And then we have “Section 11. Sections 1, 2, 3, 3.2, 4, 5, 5.1, 6, 7, 8, 9 and 12 of this act are nonseverable. If any provision of this act or its application to any person or circumstance is held invalid, the remaining provisions or applications of this act are void. “

When the PA Supreme Court struck down the requirement of Section 7, it triggered the “nonseverability” clause.

My impression is that the US Supreme Court could rule that, when the PA Supreme Court struck down the deadline, it also struck down the authorization for mail-in ballots.

It remains to be seen as to whether the Supremes have the guts to say that.

People are claiming that Trump has no shot at actually reversing the election result - but hope springs eternal.

My other thought is that Trump is in fact trying to get SCOTUS to create precedents which will constrain the big-city Democrat machines sufficiently to make Republicans (read, perhaps, Trump himself) better able to compete in 2024 and into the future. That would fit in with his objective of establishing the Republican Party as a viable alternative for big-city voters down ballot as well as for POTUS.

When the PA Supreme Court struck down the requirement of Section 7, it triggered the “nonseverability” clause.

My impression is that the US Supreme Court could rule that, when the PA Supreme Court struck down the deadline, it also struck down the authorization for mail-in ballots.

Yeah, that kind of thing. But the idea would be to affect the big-city machines nationwide, possibly putting more than just the currently disputed states in play for ’24.
