Voters passed the last November as a Democratic countermeasure to Republican-led redistricting efforts in Texas, Florida and other states. California’s controversial Proposition 50 – passed by voters last November as a Democratic countermeasure to Republican-led redistricting efforts in Texas, Florida and other states – is now on a collision course with the Supreme Court. The measure empowered California’s Democratic-controlled legislature to sideline the state’s independent Citizens Redistricting Commission and redraw congressional districts mid-decade. That commission, created by voters in 2008, was intended to curb partisan manipulation by placing map making in the hands of an independent 14-member panel focused on...

SNIP The governor revealed the secret contingency plan to prevent two Republicans from advancing in the governor election — as polls show Trump-endorsed Steve Hilton near the top of the field in the packed race. Newsom alluded to “action efforts” behind the scenes to make sure Democrats aren’t locked out of the governor’s race, saying he “making my case” to “encourage that doesn’t happen.” Recent surveys show Democratic frontrunner Xavier Becerra and Hilton as favorites among registered voters, with billionaire Tom Steyer, Republican Riverside Sheriff Chad Bianco and Democrat Katie Porter trailing a few points behind.

WASHINGTON, D.C. — Sen. Eric Schmitt, R-Mo., said Monday that he anticipates Democrats are planning to shut down the government just ahead of the midterms, calling them “legislative terrorists” who will hurt Americans in an effort to rig the election. Speaking with a group of reporters on Capitol Hill, Schmitt said the potential for a government shutdown could be “the most under-reported thing … out there,” adding, “this is not your grandfather’s Democrat party. They’re hellbent on chaos, and they think chaos is their friend. It’s not good for the American people, but if they think that can get them...

Angry Democratic lawmakers held a venting session this weekend to complain about Virginia’s Supreme Court overturning its new gerrymandered map — and some of the Dems floated a “dramatic idea”: replacing the state’s Supreme Court in order to push through the new map anyway. That’s according to a report from The New York Times on Sunday afternoon. The paper reported “struggling” Dems like House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries (D-NY) held a private discussion on Saturday, where they fumed about the court’s ruling from a day earlier. They also strategized a potential counterstrike. Journalist Reid J. Epstein reported the group discussed...

Currently, wiser heads are dubious about the plan, but who knows what the Democrats will do if they feel they’re out of options? ast week, the Virginia Supreme Court, which has been considered a left-leaning court, surprised everyone, including the Democrats, by issuing a correct ruling: The rushed ballot initiative to gerrymander Virginia’s Republicans into oblivion didn’t pass muster, invalidating the election. Democrats responded with their usual “burn it all down” rhetoric. CNN’s Abby Phillip, in full “emo kid” mode, announced that America is now “in the depths of hell,” and that all black voters have been disenfranchised. House Minority...

DOZENS OF ELECTIONS WORKERS WHO FACILITATED THE 2020 PRESIDENTIAL ELECTION IN PENNSYLVANIA have come forward claiming that they were PERSONALLY ORDERED by then Pennsylvania Governor Tom Wolf and Secretary of State Kathy Boockvar to TRASH A TOTAL OF OVER ONE HUNDRED THOUSAND BALLOTS CAST FOR PRESIDENT TRUMP and to count OVER ONE HUNDRED THOUSAND FRAUDULENT BIDEN BALLOTS that were cast in the names of dead voters and illegal aliens and shipped into election precincts in the middle of the night. The fraud was reportedly especially egregious in Philadelphia and was "outcome determinative"... President Trump was right that he actually WON...

Data obtained by America First Legal also shows how many people used "vouching" to register to vote in 2022 and 2020. Data from the Minnesota secretary of state shows that 18,898 people used “vouching” to either update their voter registration, or become registered to vote, in Minnesota in 2024. That information was obtained by America First Legal in a data request. Under Minnesota state law, an individual seeking to become registered to vote on Election Day can confirm their residency simply by having a registered voter “vouch” for them. In short, the registered voter signs an oath confirming the unregistered...

Nebraskans will vote next week in the U.S Senate primary race to determine which Republican and which Democrat will face off in November for the congressional seat. But a closer look reveals the latest in Democrat election rigging — complete with legal help from Russia Collusion hoaxer Marc Elias. The apparent master plan involves leveraging the primary race to prop up the so-called “nonpartisan” candidate vying for the Senate seat, who, under an “independent” facade, has deep leftist ties that could threaten fair representation in the red state. On May 12, Democrat candidates Cindy Burbank and William Forbes will face...

Heather Honey runs an organization called Verity Vote in Pennsylvania. She is a walking encyclopedia of information on how elections are actually run in this country. In the aftermath of the 2020 election in Pennsylvania, Heather began to hear some very disturbing things. Put simply, she began to acquire information that in counties around the state, more votes had been counted than the number of voters who voted. I’m not a math whiz, but I think we all understand that this is a big problem. Those two numbers – the number of people who voted and the number of votes...

The chair of the California Democratic Party has had enough of the possibility that Republicans could lock out Democrats in this year’s governor’s race — and wants to change the the voting system to prevent that in the future. Rusty Hicks is one of the first prominent Democrats this year to embrace a wholescale change to how the state holds its primaries, where currently the top two candidates regardless of political party advance to the general election. “The current system we have does not work,” Hicks told the Guardian. “It needs to be revised or repealed.”

Henrilynn Ibezim, a former Democratic mayoral candidate in New Jersey, pleaded guilty to forging nearly 1,000 voter registration applications during the 2021 Democratic primary, New Jersey's Office of the Attorney General announced Thursday. During the 2021 Democratic primary for Plainfield, New Jersey's mayoral seat, Ibezim allegedly brought a garbage bag filled with around 1,000 falsified voter registration applications to a post office in Elizabeth, New Jersey, with the intention of mailing them to Union County's registration commissioner. Of the 1,000 applications, most were completed with the handwriting of only three or four people, according to the attorney general. None of...

The decision could touch off a scramble by Republicans to redraw majority-minority congressional districts, especially in the South, that could cost many Black Democrats their seats.The Supreme Court on Wednesday sharply weakened a key provision of the landmark Voting Rights Act, a ruling that limits the consideration of race in drawing voting maps and could usher in Republican gains in the House.The decision is expected to touch off a scramble by Republicans to redraw majority-minority districts, especially in the South. New districts could shift the balance of power in Congress by imperiling the reelection prospects of some Black Democrats, possibly...

The Rich Men north of Richmond may have won for a day, but they cashed out every ounce of public goodwill they had to do it.If they truly wanted non-partisan redistricting, they would have pushed the Virginia Model to the other 49 states. So spare me — not interested. Lucy can keep her football this time.

Virginia used to be a model of fair redistricting. That reputation is now gone. On Tuesday, Virginia Democrats passed a redistricting plan that transforms one of the most fairly apportioned states in the country into one of the most blatantly gerrymandered. Keep in mind that Virginia only narrowly backed Kamala Harris over Donald Trump in 2024 by roughly five points. Virginia is, in every way, a battleground state. Yet under the new map, nearly half the state’s voters effectively lose their voice. The new lines snake from densely packed, heavily Democratic suburbs deep into rural territory. There is nothing democratic...
