The Florida Supreme Court has allowed new U.S. House districts drawn by Republicans to be used in the midterm elections, marking another victory for the GOP in a nationwide redistricting effort aimed at helping the party retain its slim House majority. The court on Wednesday refused a request to issue a temporary injunction against the new districts. Attorneys for voters who sued argued that the new House districts violate a state constitutional provision prohibiting partisan gerrymandering, and that the court should order the state to continue using the same districts as in the previous election. Republicans already hold 20 of...

Democratic Gov. Gavin Newsom of California on Tuesday raised the stakes of the midterm elections and the landscape for 2028 by issuing an implied threat of incarceration to President Donald Trump. “Trump says voter fraud should land people in prison,” Newsom wrote on the social media platform X. “Agreed,” the governor added. “And let’s start with the politicians spreading election lies with the goal of illegally interfering with counting ballots.”

State election officials could soon face a stark choice: Hand over voter lists to the Trump administration or risk losing Postal Service delivery for mail-in ballots. That dilemma stems from newly proposed USPS rules that seek to comply with an executive order President Donald Trump signed this spring to crack down on mail-in voting. If courts let the order stand, it would give the federal government an unprecedented role in elections — and could put even more voter data in the hands of Trump officials searching for supposed election fraud. The proposed rules lay out new conditions that states would...

"I’m the look-around candidate. All you have to do to understand why I’m surging in the polls is just look around. . . ." — Spencer Pratt. Just watch in wonder and nausea as California’s mail-in ballots dribble in, providing a real-time demonstration of the “Our Democracy” party spitting in the country’s face again, since everybody knows exactly what’s going on. Meanwhile, the Senate voted down the SAVE Act again this week by 52 to 48 for. . . reasons. But, hey, cheer up, it’s Pride Month. At the same time that California was queering its own “jungle primary,” a...

Its critics had thought it dead, but suddenly there was revived support for the SAVE America Act in the U.S. Senate and the idea of securing America’s elections appears to be back. The plan, sought by a majority of Americans and President Donald Trump, would require identification and verification in order for people to vote in American elections, an idea that seems reasonable. However, critics have claimed it would prevent married women and others from voting. Now it has happened during a Senate “vote-a-rama” to advance the GOP’s $70 billion immigration enforcement package. Sen. Mike Lee, R-Utah, had an amendment...

The Republican National Committee and the New Jersey GOP went looking through voter-roll records in one of America’s bluest states. What surfaced should make every legal voter pay attention. Fox News reported Monday that documents obtained through public-records requests showed noncitizens on New Jersey voter rolls for years, including some cases where voting histories also appeared. The NJGOP and RNC requested voter rolls from all 21 New Jersey counties, according to the report. The records reportedly showed multiple noncitizens seeking naturalization asking to be removed from the rolls, saying they had been unknowingly registered to vote. Most of those noncitizens...

This is the Democrat Party’s idea of “secure” elections in their one-party utopia. Investigative reporter Nick Shirley — the same journalist whose explosive February 2026 video we reported on here at The Gateway Pundit — knocking on doors and exposing the rotting corpse of the state’s Democrat-controlled election system, and the latest clip is pure fire. Meet Doris. She lives in California. According to the California Secretary of State’s own voter rolls, she is 126 years old and has cast ballots in 51 elections. There’s just one small problem. Doris is not 126 years old. She was born in 1940....

Now that the race for U.S. Senate in Texas is solidified between Republican Ken Paxton and Democrat James Talarico, there are photos emerging of Talarico, who had famously declared his campaign to be "non-meat," now packing all kinds of meat into his mouth. End Wokeness is highlighting some of the images on X, stating: "James Talarico's team is now forcing him to eat meat in front of reporters "proving he's Texas tough." "He looks like he wants to puke."

Another damning ballot dump in the rigged Los Angeles mayor race put Democratic City Councilwoman within striking distance of Spencer Pratt, now trailing by just 1% with nearly 200,000 ballots remaining to be counted. They’re counting ballots that came in after election day! Who could trust these results? Los Angeles Mayor Karen Bass has already been projected to advance to the November runoff. The top two candidates will advance if no candidate receives more than 50% of the vote. After the Saturday results came in, Pratt now leads by just 7,494 votes, roughly 1.1% of the total ballots counted. The...

In the November 2024 election, an overwhelming majority of voters in Washington, D.C. voted to pass Initiative 83 (I-83), which introduced ranked choice voting and semi-open primaries for elections in the District of Columbia. Campaign Legal Center, on behalf of our clients who proposed and supported I-83, has successfully defended the will of the voters in court against baseless claims that I-83 is unlawful. Ranked choice voting (also known as RCV) will be used for the first time in the District's history in primary and special elections this month. What is Initiative 83? Spearheaded by Campaign Legal Center’s clients in...

Decision Desk HQ made the call Saturday night after several days of vote counting: Democrats are out of California's 40th Congressional District. Rep. Young Kim advanced out of the primary alongside Rep. Ken Calvert, and November will be a Republican-versus-Republican. California voters passed Proposition 50 last year, redrawing the state's congressional maps. Governor Gavin Newsom (D) was the driving force behind it, and the stated goal was flipping Republican seats. The new 40th was supposed to be one of them. The plan was to jam two Republican incumbents into the same district, let them bloody each other, and walk in...

California is using the Federal mail system to corruptly elect Federal representatives (and state and local officials). So don't recognize their corrupt election/certification system. Don't seat their representatives. There goes 53 seats in the Congress until you stop the corruption.

California is still California. Democrats still have the state’s built-in advantage, but the latest unofficial count out of the governor’s primary is the kind of number they usually pretend they never saw. As of the California Secretary of State’s June 6, 2026 update at 6:04 p.m., Democrat Xavier Becerra led with 1,824,635 votes, or 27.0 percent. Republican Steve Hilton sat right behind him at 1,757,533 votes, or 26.0 percent. That is a one-point gap at the top of a statewide governor primary in deep-blue California.

Actor and comedian Jamie Kennedy expressed astonishment at the dramatic shift in odds away from Spencer Pratt in the Los Angeles mayoral election. The “Scream” star, who supports Pratt, shared a post on Friday showing that socialist city Councilmember Nithya Raman had a 95% chance of advancing to November’s general election despite Pratt still maintaining a lead with votes still being counted. “This is a literal crime scene,” he wrote. “There is no way this is an honest election.” Oddsmakers had recently given Pratt more than a 75% chance to advance out of the primary.aintaining a lead with votes still...

California’s slow ballot count isn’t just a political disgrace. It’s also a symbol of how California does everything: late, if at all. The high-speed rail was approved in 2008, to connect San Francisco to Los Angeles by 2020. Not one inch of track has been laid. The Sites reservoir was originally proposed in the 1950s. It was only approved this year, and nothing has been built. The Delta tunnels were proposed decades ago. Now the project is down to just one tunnel, and it may never be dug.
