Glad to see nothing has changed in Chicago regarding elections, for the past.......93 years or so. Democrats in control since 1931....and counting as the city continues to sink below the waves of Lake Michigan, figuratively speaking.
Fioretti is a Democrat plant. He was in office as a democrat for decades prior to 2022 when he became a “Republican”...hmmmm...I wonder why. Another pathetic joke on the incredibly stupid citizens of Chicago. They deserve all the crap coming down the pipe their way....it’s going in only one direction, down.
Plant or no plant, he serves a useful purpose for the Republicans. If the eventual winner of the dem primary has to withdraw outside Illinois period for withdrawal, then Fioretti automatically wins.
That is a major reason to always have opposition candidates on the ballot even if they have no chance of winning.
Extra ballots offset poll results.
If FJB can pull in over 81 million votes, I’m pretty sure he can easily overcome a 15% to 25% differential in the polls . . .
Yep, one of the worst and most dangerous things that can happen is to leave people with nothing left to lose.
Interesting, thanks for posting more context.
"Chicago Board of Elections adds over 10,000 votes 'mistakenly left out' to unofficial count"
FR: Never Accept the Premise of Your Opponent’s Argument
Given the zero tolerance "hair trigger" language of Section 2 of the 14th Amendment, that section a penalty for states where ballot box fraud has occurred, which Pence and the J6 Congress wrongly ignored imo, the questionable excuse by the Chicago Board of Elections begs a Section 2-based federal investigation imo.
"is denied to any"
"or in any way abridged,"
"14th Amendment, Section 2: Representatives shall be apportioned among the several States according to their respective numbers, counting the whole number of persons in each State, excluding Indians not taxed. But when the right to vote at any election for the choice of electors for President and Vice President of the United States, Representatives in Congress, the Executive and Judicial officers of a State, or the members of the Legislature thereof, is denied to any of the male inhabitants of such State, being twenty-one years of age, and citizens of the United States, or in any way abridged, except for participation in rebellion, or other crime, the basis of representation therein shall be reduced [emphases added] in the proportion which the number of such male citizens shall bear to the whole number of male citizens twenty-one years of age in such State." [Apportionment of Representatives]
If this was a better world, the feds would be warning the states before every election that they will be darkening the doorways of the vote counters in response to the complaints of counting room whistle-blowers, likewise for voter complaints about problems at the voting stations, to perform Section 2-based investigations.
The remedy for corrupt, unconstitutionally big federal government oppressing the people under its boots ...
Patriots IMMEDIATELY need to primary ALL state and federal incumbent lawmakers and executives running for reelection, except for MTG, Gaetz & Company (and others?), replacing them with patriot lawmakers in November who will support hopeful Trump 47 to finish draining the swamp.
Crooked politics in Chicago, surely you jest?
“The gap in the race for Cook County State’s Attorney has narrowed even more.”
That’s the race the cheating bastards are trying to throw! At this point, the “good” (ie, lesser of two evils) candidate is slightly ahead of the machine filth. Guess who’ll eventually win when more “missing” cheat by mail votes turn up?
“Let me guess 100% of them were for Democrats.”
The leading candidates are both democrats naturally, and the choice is between the machine endorsed stooge and a less communist challenger.
“I mistakenly left out additional ballots “ sounds so much better than saying, “Hey, look what we found . . “
“Mistakenly leaving ballots out” should be a crime in and of itself. Certain people have a legal duty to present the ballots cast by the deadline. If they screw up, they should be criminally charged - just like we are when we have legal duties but screw up.
Also, these ballots should be counted separately. Are they statistical anomalies, or do they actually look like legit votez?
