‘Election integrity’ turns white-hot, and all minorities favor voter ID laws

Election integrity has skyrocketed to one of the top concerns in the congressional midterm elections, with huge majorities of Democrats, independents, and Republicans citing it as a driving issue.

While Democrats and Republicans have different views of what “election integrity” means, together, 83% of likely voters believe it will be a factor in the elections for House and Senate — and the 2024 presidential election.

For Republicans, Rasmussen Reports found that 89% said the issue is “important,” with 62% calling it “very important.” Among Democrats, 78% called it "important," including 52% who said “very important.” And 84% of independent voters feel it is important, with 60% in the “very important" column.

Republicans have been hot on the issue since former President Donald Trump lost the 2020 election, despite winning more votes than in 2016 and scooping up historic numbers of minority votes.

In the same poll, 75% of Republicans believed “cheating” changed the outcome.

But Democrats also have a gripe with Republican states trying to tighten election standards, efforts they say go too far, though it was President Joe Biden who received a historic number of votes in 2020 despite running a Rose Garden-style campaign.

A majority of Democrats do not believe cheating affected the 2020 election.

That's big! I think, once you add back in dems indies, that meant that over half the country knows the election was stolen.

"[Biden] ran a 'Rose Garden-style campaign'"

Huh? He ran a Rathskellar Style Campaign! Except he didn't serve any beer.

Yes! Isolated. Alone. In the bunker. Much better description than "Rathskellar."

Is there any conservative group with a website who is seriously working on voting integrity?

2000 Mules can move this awareness up even more.
Completely
Stolen
Election

If the opposition did the entire Steele dossier / Russia collusion / FISA / FBI against candidate Trump, we all know what they mobilized against President Trump.
And now the US is in decline
War
Inflation
Degenerate energy policies
Race wars

Stolen elections have consequences

Anyone know if any of the RCV provisions that were in HR1 are in the omnibus?

Agreed!

I think this may be why we are told to focus on Russia-Ukraine emergency so they can slip the bloated budget through because they added this emergency funding inside. Now everyone will say, “OHHHH, please pass this bill so that Ukraine can get help.” This is one of the greatest scams performed by our elected officials.

“Republicans have been hot on the issue since former President Donald Trump lost the 2020 election...”

Trump did not legitimately lose the 2020 election. It was stolen by Potato Head and Co. via massive voter fraud.

Minorities understand that their votes were stolen to support the illegal aliens brought in to replace them.
