DeSantis: GOP 'Must Reject the Culture of Losing,' No More 'Excuses'
News Max ^ | 5/14/2023 | Eric Mack

Posted on 05/14/2023 7:47:32 AM PDT by rod5591

While echoing the policies and positions of former President Donald Trump, Florida GOP Gov. Ron DeSantis took some veiled shots the runaway GOP primary polling leader – blasting Republicans as having been losers.

"We must reject the culture of losing that has infected our party in recent years. The time for excuses is over. We've got to demonstrate the courage to lead and the strength to win."

"If we make the 2024 election a referendum on Joe Biden and his failures, and if we provide a positive alternative for the future of this country, Republicans will win across the board," DeSantis said. "If we do not do that, if we get distracted, if we focus the election on the past or on other side issues, then I think the Democrats are going to beat us again, and I think it will be very difficult to recover from that defeat."

Ballot Harvesting is the solution
We did it in California. Churches,Gun Shops and other Conservative places. But Trumps Mormon moron pick is hurting us at the RNC.

This is my plan
Secured Voting Integrity for MAGA Only (It’s who counts the vote)

Terms:
Voting bank; This is essentially a more sophisticated drop box designed explicitly for MAGA voters.
Token; A physical object such as (one of a kind locking puzzle piece) generated when a voter registers.*
A Ballot template; A transparent sheet with holes corresponding to preselected candidates.
A locked precinct voting map; A map of all eligible voters in your district numbered with locking tokens.*

Purpose: Provide a method for validating and comparing election results from a controlled group of verified MAGA voters. Although anyone can register at a MAGA voting bank, however, they only will be able to vote for MAGA candidates; this reason will become apparent.

Rationale: It is essential to isolate MAGA ballots from independent, Democrat, or cross-party ballots to prevent them from being manipulated. Isolation reduces the number of ballots needed for examination to about half of the electorate, making audits easier.

This strategy will thwart vote-switching or disqualification of Republican or MAGA ballots because it provides incontrovertible evidence if needed in a court of law. These pristine ballots are a touchstone for transparent and tractable secured voting, a standard in contrast to machine voting.

Also, by holding our votes until or after election day, depending on the law, election day cheating becomes more difficult for the Democrats.

Tasks: Create an identity for voters that cannot be altered. (One voter token matches one ballot only) This token will only fit into a locked precinct voting map using a physical process instead of electronic data, such as a physically manufactured locked segment or (puzzle piece key) kept by the voter. Withholding votes is a tactic.

Seek out those unregistered potential MAGA voters with ballot harvesting. Keep A copy of ballots cast during early voting or the mailed-in period and hold them at the voting bank until after the election. The objective is to catch fraud after the fact by retaining a copy of a certified ballot, recorded by the voter before their ballot is sent to the polling center on election day.

Process: Only voters who volunteer to register as MAGA ONLY supporters must register at a voting bank; they will vote using a straight party ticket or a straight party template for mixed ballots depending on each state. The voter will use a transparent template for marking MAGA candidates and a signed consent form. Then a physical key or token, including the photocopy of the ballot, will be generated with a PIN attached to the back of the token. This PIN will be published on the web alongside their voting selections.

Each voting bank has a map of eligible voters in their district with corresponding tokens; MAGA voters will receive their locked token for voter identification. If the law allows, these tokens could be substituted for a signature when voting in person.

Develop A certified voting roll by re-registering MAGA voters in parallel with existing state election laws. The MAGA registration is kept for examination at an independent MAGA voting bank.

Create a legal standard: Holding a copy of the ballot and producing a token means that the interpretation of any rejected or corrupted ballot is eliminated.

Why use this strategy? Our republic is failing. If you have a better idea, please present it. My prayers will be answered if I inspire just one person capable of altering our dystopian future.

Who or what is capable of managing this project? This project would require a large organization capable of multiple operations.

Good thoughts.
But every Mass Mail Out Ballot MUST include a copy of ID inside the mailed ballot when mailed in or dropped off.
No different than showing ID on early voting or Election Day voting.
No copy of ID inside returned ballot, no counting of that vote.
