President Trump on Monday urged Republican governors to take action to fix election-related problems in their states, calling for same-day voting, paper ballots, and voter identification.
“All Republican Governors should immediately pull out of ERIC, the terrible Voter Registration System that ‘pumps the rolls’ for Democrats and does nothing to clean them up. It is a fools game for Republicans,” he wrote on Truth Social.
He continued, “….And while these Governors are at it, GO TO SAME DAY VOTING, ALL PAPER BALLOTS, AND VOTER I.D. (VOTER IDENTIFICATION). Mail-In Voting ONLY for FAR AWAY MILITARY and those that are VERY SICK! PROBLEMS ON ELECTION’S SOLVED!”
President Trump’s comments directly address the concerns of many voting Americans who have become worried about the safety and security of the election processes in the country following the chaos of the 2020 presidential election and the 2022 midterm election cycle.
As previously reported by RSBN, Trump promised Americans in late February that “we’re not going to let them” steal the election again in 2024.
During his address made at the 2023 CPAC event in Washington, D.C., over the weekend, Trump declared that he would “move heaven and Earth to fully and finally secure our elections.”
He added, “All Republican governors should immediately go to paper ballots, one-day voting, and voter ID.”
Trump’s comments are reminiscent of his remarks made during an appearance at Club 47, formerly Club 45, in West Palm Beach, Florida, in February.
He stated that Americans were going to have to “fight like hell” in 2024 and that once his administration was “in,” he would take action to implement “paper ballots, same-day voting, voter ID, and be done, okay?”
In the meantime, the president has said that Republicans must learn to embrace legal ballot harvesting to combat the Democrats’ strategic advantage during election cycles in the United States.
“Our path forward is to MASTER the Democrats’ own game of harvesting ballots in every state we can,” Trump stated, per RSBN.
Trump’s eldest son, Donald Trump Jr., added during his own CPAC speech last week, “While we want all of those things as Republicans we’ll NEVER GET THEM if we don’t actually play the game. Right? The left has weaponized Covid, they weaponized the pandemic to change the playing field and guess what? We can’t implement the things that we want if we’re not in control.”
Yes,
The battle should be focused on local and state. we need to get busy.
About friggin’ time
Expect resistance from RONOs that hold the mistaken belief that someday, somehow, the system will benefit them.
Can’t he make them all INDIVIDUALLY commit to getting right on it? They owe it to us not Trump. It’s like telling Germany to budget 2% for defense. Talking about it won’t make it happen. 3 election cycles and it’s still goin on. 2024 gonna be just another?
Unless election integrity is restored soon, any discussion of 2024 is actually a waste of time.
Forget FL. DeSantis likes early and machine voting including Dominion.
I can assure you that Georgia will do nothing.
Folks can bitch that he has to stop talking about this.
Well, no Republican is going to win Arizona, Pennsylvania, or Michigan.
Kemp was allowed to win Georgia because he’s more or less a Leftist.
A lot will be telling if the NC legislature wins the case it has before SCOTUS. If they do, then the state legislatures make the rules and no court nor Mark Elias can do anything about it.
So, even the states that have Dem Governors, SOSs, AGs, etc, but have Republican legislatures: Oregon, Wisconsin, Kentucky, Louisiana, Arizona, can make their own rules and there’s nothing that any of the aforementioned can do about it.
Gee, that only took 4 years.
State legislatures make the rules for each State’s elections. End of Story.
Trump’s call for Governors to take unilateral action is misguided. State Legislatures have the issue in their hands has been my point since 2020.
He could have actually done something about this when he was President. Talk is cheap.
Motor Voter Law.
Ballot Harvesting.
Kalifornia has shown the democRATS how to cheat and steal election after election. Without a conscience, without a soul, democRATS are capable of anything.
Kalifornia has Motor Voter Law. DMV registers you to vote when you visit for license, auto registration, etc. Illegal trespassers ‘legally’ get KA Driver License, no doubt vote registration at the same time. My developmentally challenged client went to renew her KA ID Card at DMV. She is very, very challenged, needs assistance with most daily things. She was assisted by home staff to get there, and go through the process. They did not ask anything about citizenship. She was FORCED to register to vote. Gee, I wonder which Political Party she “chose?’ I wonder how many times she has ‘voted’ w/o her knowledge?
26 states have GOP governor, 24 states with Dem.
(2nd figure for Dems reading this post who have trouble with subtraction from 50).
Good start but the Dem states are outright vote fraud havens.
Need I mention Gov.Whitmer in Michigan who ordered leftist Sec. of State to erase all the voting machines immediately as courts were getting requests for evidence of vote fraud.
She said state law requires all machines be set back at zero in time for use in future elections. Just getting ready REALLY early. Just in case, you know.
Long overdue but it is not just the Governor’s. Has to also include the state legislators.
Sure they do. End of story.
Until Mark Elias comes in and sues, and wins, like he did in Georgia this last election cycle.
Until the North Carolina Supreme Court nullified changes made by the NC legislature, which is why the case is in the Supreme Court
Or how about Elias traveling all over the country suing over election laws and winning.
Day late and a $ short.
As President he did nothing to save his own ass
Good grief, you are delusional.
This should have been his priority starting the day he left office.
People bitch about Soros…but he put his money where it affected change. His change is bad…but, my point is that the right should have been “doing something” rather complaining.
Agree!
Nice thought President Trump.
Just one problem.
The bush league chamber of commerce worshipping republiCAN’Ts are in on the scam.
But, this is a good way to bring them into the light
