Anonymous no longer (Dem party infiltration plot in Idaho)
Coeur d’Alene Press ^ | March 31, 2022 | Kaye Thornburgh

Posted on 03/31/2022 7:21:26 AM PDT by ProtectOurFreedom

A woman who said the Kootenai County Republican Central Committee tried to recruit her as part of an alleged plan to infiltrate and dismantle the local Democratic Party is now speaking publicly.

The Press published in early March a recorded phone call between Kootenai County resident John Grimm and a person he identified as KCRCC Youth Chair Dan Bell.

In the call, Bell described a plan by the KCRCC to take control of the local Democratic Party by having its own candidates run for Democratic precinct captain positions.

Penelope Harries-Morris, a paralegal, told The Press in early March that Greg McKenzie approached her at a KCRCC meeting and tried to recruit her for what she called a “scheme” to infiltrate the Democratic Party.

“He asked if I was willing to register as a Democrat,” Morris said.

She said she was confused by the question until McKenzie explained the KCRCC’s plan to fill the local Democratic Party’s ranks with their own members.

When Morris refused to participate, she said McKenzie asked if she would be willing to recruit other volunteers instead. Morris said she declined.

Far leftist rag CdA Press is always slamming Idaho Republicans without fail.

This cracks me up. The Press is trying to make this sound like Watergate.

I believe the Democrats have long infiltrated the Republicans.
How else do you explain the candidates who talk conservative on the campaign trail and then vote the opposite.

“I believe the Democrats have long infiltrated the Republicans.

Clearly the case. But OBVIOUSLY the media doesn’t talk it.

One easy way to confirm is simply to look at the GOP reaction to populist candidates - they absolutely panic. But why? People like Trump, and especially DeSantis actually WIDEN the appeal of the GOP and support everything they run on.

...it must be something else.

I think the name of (hyphenated) " Penelope Harries-Morris, a paralegal", gives away her true allegiance.

There was a group of conservatives that did this in Lewis County Washington back in the late ‘90’s or 2000’s. The dims have been doing this to conservatives forever. Pierre Deflecto, Susie Collins, Lizard Murkowski, et al.

Bring it on!

If you want to know what the left is up to, just pay attention to what they accuse their enemies of doing…

CDL and Sandpoint have been ruined. Now, moving East to Montana the Californicators are taking over now.

But as for this story. Who cares. The democrats do this all the time. Fake ads for primaries. Fake candidates. Fake PACs. All using “conservative” candidates to destroy the republicans or supporting progressives like Susan Collins.

Democrats do this kind of stuff all the time. Even if it were true, who cares.

Worse, California uses the "Top Two Candidates" primary system...
The Top Two Candidates Open Primary Act, which took effect January 1, 2011, created "voter-nominated" offices. The Top Two Candidates Open Primary Act does not apply to candidates running for U.S. President, county central committees, or local offices.

Most of the offices that were previously known as "partisan" are now known as "voter-nominated" offices. Voter-nominated offices are state constitutional offices, state legislative offices, and U.S. congressional offices. The only "partisan offices" now are the offices of U.S. President and county central committee.

All candidates for voter-nominated offices are listed on one ballot and only the top two vote-getters in the primary election – regardless of party preference - move on to the general election. Write-in candidates for voter-nominated offices can only run in the primary election. A write-in candidate will only move on to the general election if the candidate is one of the top two vote-getters in the primary election.

Prior to the Top Two Candidates Open Primary Act, the top vote-getter from each qualified political party, as well as any write-in candidate who received a certain percentage of votes, moved on to the general election.

Once a party begins to dominate a state, this primary system ensures that party will win every future election. It is a total disaster.

That's why this muck-raking article cracks me up. The CdA Press is notorious for this type of "journalism."

The Democrats do this on a regular basis. I don’t think it is against the law.

“About time they started fighting back!”

That was my reaction to the story, too. “What took them so long?”
