Capital Punishment — it’s the only way to stop this.

I want the death penalty for voter fraud. Some parents lost their children who died in combat, those parents went to funerals believing they live in a free country... and if a person commits fraud they should have to sacrifice their life for disenfranchising gold star families.

I’m sick of this slap on the wrist followed by a standing ovation from Democrats. For cheating!

It should be mandatory minimum 20 years jail time for vote fraud!!

This is one area that could make an immediate difference. Make the penalty for doing this severe. Say, minimum five years in prison for anyone doing this. Maximum 25 years if the person is running for office or employed by a campaign or employed by a candidate in whatever capacity. It will stop.

This is the destruction of our republic. The gallows is a fitting punishment.

Former Dem Rep gets 30-month prison sentence in ballot-stuffing election fraud case
Myers served in the US House between 1976 and 1980 before being expelled for bribery
By Michael Lee, Fox News
October 2, 2022

A former Pennsylvania congressman was sentenced to over two years in jail for committing election fraud aimed at helping Democratic candidates.

"Protecting the legitimacy of elections is critical to ensuring the public’s trust in the process," FBI Philadelphia Division Special Agent in Charge Jacqueline Maguire said in a press release last week. "Through his actions, Ozzie Myers pointedly disdained both the will of Philadelphia voters and the rule of law. He’s now a federal felon twice over, heading back behind bars, with time to consider the great consequence of free and fair elections."

Former Rep. Michael "Ozzie" Myers pleaded guilty to frequently stuffing ballots, conspiring to illegally vote in a federal election and deprive civil rights, voting records falsification, and bribery in favor of Democratic candidates, according to a Department of Justice press release. He carried out the schemes in Pennsylvania during the 2014, 2015, 2016, 2017 and 2018 elections, the DOJ said.

I wonder if he will ever serve a day. I also wonder why his Democrat shield failed. Maybe some cases are just too, too egregious to sweep under the rug.

It sure took DOJ a long enough time to get him.

It would be one thing if this guy just forged a ballot for an uncle who was out of the country. That’s bad enough. But he did it dozens of times! A sentence of probation screams one thing: voter fraud is no big deal.

More and more people believe election fraud should come with the death penalty.

It has taken me a while but I’m warming up to that idea too.
