Left-wing activists in Colorado said they have gathered enough signatures to place abortion on the ballot in November. “Coloradans for Protecting Reproductive Freedom said its volunteers gathered more than 225,000 signatures and met the district requirements, as well,” CBS News reported. In order to successfully place a measure on the ballot, petitioners must gather 124,238 signatures from voters, which must include 2 percent of total registered voters in each of Colorado’s 35 Senate districts, according to the secretary of state’s office. The measure would need the support of 55 percent of voters to pass.

Apetition to have Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis disqualified from former President Donald Trump's election interference case has received more than 43,000 signatures. Willis found herself embroiled in a scandal pertaining to a romantic relationship she held with Nathan Wade, an outside attorney brought into her office to help conduct the Trump investigation. It was argued this relationship was improper and should disqualify Willis from continuing to lead the case. She was allowed to remain, but the decision is being appealed. "Now the case is being appealed, and we're taking action," the petition reads. "Our senior legal team –...

Leaders of the Texas Nationalist Movement (TNM) — which openly calls for the Lone Star State to secede from the United States and become an independent nation again — appear to have surpassed the threshold to put a secession ballot initiative on the 2024 Republican primary ballot this March..

With Kari Lake's legal complaint alleging systematic signature verification failures in Maricopa County remanded by the Arizona Supreme Court to trial court, closer examination of the signature verification software used by the county reveals a strikingly low threshold for signatures to qualify as "high-confidence" matches. Since falling about 17,000 votes short in the 2022 Arizona gubernatorial election to Democrat Gov. Katie Hobbs, Lake has continued to contest the election results in court, arguing that there were ballot chain of custody and signature verification issues in addition to thousands of Republican voters disproportionately disenfranchised on Election Day, when voting machine errors...

Los Angeles County reported Monday that over 27% of the signatures submitted on petitions to recall District Attorney George Gascón were invalid — after reporting that less than 1% of mail-in ballots were invalid in the 2020 election. The county reported that it rejected 195,783 of the 715,833 signatures submitted, roughly 27.3%. The reasons given included that some voters were found to be unregistered; incorrect addresses were given; or signatures did not match those on file.

New footage released by Gubernatorial Candidate Kari Lake and mule-buster Gary Snyder reveals ballot Mules in San Luis, Arizona forging signatures on ballot envelopes and preparing to cast illegal votes in the 2020 stolen election. This same footage was provided to the Arizona Attorney General BEFORE the 2020 General Election and he did nothing about it. The Gateway Pundit previously reported that San Luis residents Gary Snyder and David Lara busted a local ballot trafficking operation using undercover cameras, after observing these criminals operate in their community for 27 years. It was revealed to The Gateway Pundit that this evidence...

Alaska’s Division of Elections will not verify the authenticity of voter signatures on the ballots cast in the upcoming June 11 special statewide primary to replace Rep. Don Young. “There is no statutory authority to verify signatures, but voters will have to provide witness signatures,” a March 25 email from Alaska’s Division of Elections stated. Since this will be the first time Alaska has ever conducted a statewide mail-in election, concerns have been raised about how the state will ensure that voters are who they claim to be. Nationally, the most common way of verifying mail-in ballots is to have...

“After a lengthy lawsuit that saw the Democrats achieve few victories in their goal of stopping the audit of the 2020 ballots in Maricopa County, Arizona, they have reached a settlement with the firm involved in the audit and the Senate Republicans that will see the firm, Cyber Ninjas, cease verifying the signatures on early voting envelopes with the signatures on file from the voter,” the National File reported. “With only 9 days left to go before the audit is set to be completed, signature verification will cease immediately,” the report continued. Per the settlement, Cyber Ninjas “and their agents...

Why do signature checks always move the electorate further to the GOP? Three months after the November general election one congressional seat in New York has still not been certified after the state supreme court justice Scott DelConte ruled that dozens of votes were invalid. Some of the biggest batches the court invalidated: 128 ballots from voters who voted in the right election district but wrong polling place, in addition to 20 ballots cast in the wrong county. 85 ballots from voters who were listed in the state voter database as “purged.” 51 ballots from voters who dropped their absentee...

The voter fraud in this year’s presidential election was widespread and extensive. Instead of asking where was the fraud? The real question is where was there NO fraud? Democrats used every trick in their book to steal votes and manufacture ballots. Here is the latest proof of voter fraud in Texas. Democrats manufactured votes — in the same city, in the same handwriting and at the same address. This is what Democrats do. And they will continue to do this until people are sent to jail. WHERE IS THE DOJ? WHERE IS THE FBI? WHAT HORRIBLE PEOPLE! This needs to...

Michigan hearing: Sequential absentee ballots. No dates. All same signatures. Not in poll book. These votes were manufactured.https://twitter.com/BigFish3000/status/1334309546186125314

The key empirical question that must be asked about the 2020 election results is why the rejection rate for vote-by-mail ballots dropped dramatically from the primary season, when mass vote-by-mail began in some states, to the general election. Absentee ballots, which are traditionally a very small proportion of the vote in most states, are typically rejected at a rate of 1% to 2%. However, the rate of faulty absentee ballots rose to 25% after mass vote-by-mail was adopted earlier this year. The Washington Post reported in August: More than 534,000 mail ballots were rejected during primaries across 23 states this...

Lin Wood @LLinWood · 8h I again call upon Georgia Governor Brian Kemp @BrianKempGA to timely order special session of GA legislature to address unlawful & void 11/3 election resulting from 3/6/20 consent agreement with Democratic Party by @GaSecofState Don’t play political games with our votes, Brian. ——- Only state legislatures can create election laws for the states according to the U. S. Constitution. GA entered a consent decree that altered state law. This was regarding non-matching signature. Dems were rushing to “cure” ballots many days after the election. Likely all those votes are invalid. Or if it can’t be...

The county’s signature verification process didn’t work. The county flagged only my ballot — the most obvious signature that didn’t match. But the other ballots, featuring printed names and signatures that didn’t match those on file, all went through. In contrast, the county’s process for “curing” my signature worked well. It required me to submit photo ID proving I was who I claimed to be.

MADISON, Wis. (AP) — An effort to recall Wisconsin Democratic Gov. Tony Evers has failed, the recall’s organizer told supporters on Monday. Misty Polewczynski, of Burlington, posted on the “Recall Evers Petition” Facebook page on Monday that not enough signatures were collected. She did not say how close the group came to collecting the nearly 670,000 needed signatures and she did not immediately return a message seeking comment. “It is with a heavy heart we announce that after proofing and what came in over the weekend, we have fallen short,” she posted to the group that has 80,000 followers. “We...

HARRISBURG, Pa. (AP) — Pennsylvania’s Supreme Court ruled unanimously Friday on a key concern surrounding an avalanche of mail-in ballots in the presidential battleground state, prohibiting counties from rejecting ballots because the voter’s signature on it may not resemble their signature on their registration form. Two Republican justices joined five Democratic justices in the decision. The verdict was a victory for the state’s top election official, Kathy Boockvar, a Democrat who had asked the court to back her up in a legal dispute with President Donald Trump’s campaign and Republican lawmakers.

Remember the Democratic firm that said Donald Trump could have a huge lead on election night that will end with Joe Biden beating him due to mail-in ballots? Well, Pennsylvania just made that scheme easier by trashing the voter signature provision. Counties in the Keystone State were told they can’t reject a ballot over an election official’s objections regarding signatures. Sounds like it’s a situation that is ripe for fraud (via AP): With concerns rising in Pennsylvania that tens of thousands of mail-in ballots will be discarded in the presidential election over technicalities, officials in the presidential battleground told counties...

HARRISBURG, Pa. (AP) — With concerns rising in Pennsylvania that tens of thousands of mail-in ballots will be discarded in the presidential election over technicalities, officials in the presidential battleground told counties they aren’t allowed to reject a ballot solely because an election official believes a signature doesn’t match the one in the voter’s file. The new guidance from Pennsylvania’s Department of State — that state law does not allow counties to set aside mail-in ballots based on their signature analysis — prompted the League of Women Voters of Pennsylvania and the Urban League of Greater Pittsburgh to drop a...

Two citizens campaigns to legalize recreational marijuana in Florida are headed in opposite directions, with one contending it’s close to getting on the 2020 ballot and the other saying it’s unlikely to get the needed signatures in time. Make It Legal Florida, backed and financed by the medical marijuana industry, has gathered close to 600,000 signatures, chairman Nick Hansen said Tuesday. That would be more than 75% of the 766,200 needed to get on the ballot in November 2020, though only about 119,000 had been verified Tuesday. But Karen Goldstein, vice-chair of Regulate Florida, which backs more sweeping legal marijuana...
