VIDEONow that it is apparent that weaponizing the DOJ and using lawfare against Trump by charging him in multiple court cases leading into the 2024 election is NOT stopping Trump, look for the Democrats to desperately attempt to introduce Ranked Choice Voting in the Battleground States to stop Trump since that bizarre type of voting system negates the effect of third party candidates who would draw votes away from Biden. No wonder that the Trump hating Rolling Stoned is hyping Ranked Choice Voting in a dopey "instructional" video.

Americans are feeling weary that the pandemic might not be as over as they once believed, and a growing number of Republicans have expressed concern that the coronavirus is indeed getting worse. According to a new Gallup poll, 44 percent of Democrats feel the situation is getting worse, up from 6 percent this June. The sentiment also grew among Republicans from just 3 to 16 percent in the same time period. "I think that because there was a new variant that emerged, the 'newness' and the uncertainty of the new variant's virulence and severity likely caused an uptick of concern,"...

U.S. Sen. Catherine Cortez Masto’s win in Nevada guaranteed that Democrats would retain control of the Senate after the 2022 midterm elections. It also confirmed the strength of the Democratic Party in the West. Since 1992, Democrats have flipped the region away from Republican control, a shift that began with the end of the Cold War and carried through a Pacific Coast economic recession, anti-racism demonstrations and violence in Los Angeles and the area’s increasing diversity. I am a professor of political science who has published on the subject of critical elections and how regional realignments in voting patterns have...

Another weekday brought with it a fresh White House briefing featuring Karine Jean-Pierre and her Big Book of Talking Points, which she remained glued to while answering a question about why it could take days to know the winners of some races after tomorrow’s midterms. How’s this for goalpost shifting? VIDEO AT LINK............... “That’s how this is supposed to work”? Um, no it isn’t. Michael McNally @notoserfdom · Follow Replying to @townhallcom It is not 'supposed' to take several days to count all the votes in an election. This is a narrative peddled by Dems and the media, to normalize...

Primary midterm elections occurred Tuesday June 14th in Nevada, but much like the heavily contested 2020 election…they haven’t quite finished “counting” them yet. It’s been 2 days without a final tally and updating numbers on multiple sites have mostly stalled or stopped. The Clark County government website actually went down completely, at least from what I can tell from the one part of it I can read in English… ... Home to Las Vegas, Clark County is the most populous in the state by far and it has some serious explaining to do with the “results” that have already start...

When Stacey Abrams ran for governor of Georgia in 2018, she was relatively unknown. By 2020, though, her work in Georgia and for Democrats across the country made her a household name, in time for a second run. Abrams ran unopposed in this year’s Democratic primaries. Now, she faces current Gov. Brian Kemp (R), whom she lost to by a narrow margin in 2018, in another contentious race. But this time, Abrams has an army of newly registered voters behind her. In 2020, Abrams and a team of grassroots organizations registered more than 800,000 new voters, turning Georgia blue for...

The Biden administration’s silence is an attempt to get America to look the other way while they illegally involve themselves in state elections. Despite promises of transparency, the Biden administration is hiding its plans to undermine state control over election laws. Last spring, the White House issued Executive Order (EO) 14019, “Promoting Access to Voting.” The EO required every federal agency to submit a plan to register voters and encourage voter participation. It also required agencies to form strategies to invite non-governmental third parties to register voters.To date, few details have been released—and naturally, there are questions. What will these...

New York Times admits Hunter Biden's laptop is legitimate Everlasting, undying, soul-rending shame be upon you, Facebook and Twitter and Politico and all the others who covered up, denied and suppressed this newspaper’s true and accurate reporting about Hunter Biden’s laptop in 2020. You should be hurling yourselves at the feet of the American people, begging forgiveness. You should be renting billboards saying, “WE LIED.” But most importantly, you should be hauled before Congress to answer humiliating questions. These and other information purveyors owe us — not just this paper, but this country — restitution for what now looks like...

RC Di Mezzo, former national press secretary for the anti-Trump Lincoln Project, left the Super PAC to work for Soros-funded “anti-disinformation” project, Good Information Inc. Democrat mega-donors like Laurene Powell Jobs, Reid Hoffman, and George Soros teamed up to fund the Good Information Inc. start-up at its launch in 2021. As Breitbart News reported: The new project, “Good Information Inc.,” will be led by Democrat party strategist Tara McGowan, and according to Axios, “aims to fund and scale businesses that cut through echo chambers with fact-based information.” McGowan has been at the top of multiple companies with financial ties to...

A judge is withholding the release of an audit report of Dominion voting machines in Georgia. Now the federal government and the Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA) has inserted itself into the case and is asking the judge to delay the report longer.We reported on this case previously. Per our report a week ago:A federal judge is being urged to release a report that, despite the secrecy surrounding it, appears to indicate there are potential flaws in the Dominion Voting Systems’ equipment used in Georgia.“The public deserves to know the context of J. Alex Halderman’s claims and his testimony...

ATLANTA (AP) — A federal cybersecurity agency says a report by an expert who says he’s identified security vulnerabilities in voting machines used by Georgia and other states shouldn’t be made public until it has had time to assess and mitigate potential risks. The report has been under seal since July in federal court in Atlanta, part of a long-running lawsuit challenging Georgia’s voting machines. Its author, J. Alex Halderman, said in sworn declarations filed publicly with the court that he examined the Dominion Voting Systems machines for 12 weeks and identified “multiple severe security flaws” that would allow bad...

Public Interest Legal Foundation (PILF) filed a lawsuit Wednesday against Michigan’s Secretary of State Jocelyn Benson, alleging that almost 26,000 dead people are still registered to vote in that state. More than 17,000 dead voters have remained on the rolls for 10 years. Thousands more have been there for 20 years. Some are considered “active” and some are “inactive.” All are supposedly dead. Why is this important? Because Benson sent a letter to Michigan’s election clerks before the 2020 election telling them to forgo signature verification for absentee ballots, a move that was later swatted down as illegal, and thus...

The Justice Department announced Thursday it has sued the State of Texas over its restrictive voting law that went into effect in September. The complaint argues SB1 violates Section 208 of the Voting Rights Act "by improperly restricting what assistance in the polling booth voters who have a disability or are unable to read or write can receive." SB1 affects voters who have a disability by preventing those who assist them from providing help like answering questions on their behalf, confirming voters with visual impairments have properly marked their ballots and responding to any requests they might have about certain...

California on Monday became the eighth, and by far the largest, U.S. state to make universal distribution of vote-by-mail ballots permanent, a practice that became more widespread during the COVID-19-plagued 2020 election cycle. The measure requiring mail-in ballots to be routinely sent to every active registered voter from now on was signed into law by Governor Gavin Newsom as the centerpiece of a package of bills aimed at improving the state's overall election system. Its enactment in one of the nation's most heavily Democratic states, and the most populous, contrasted sharply with a wave of new voting requirements and limits...

Gov. Gavin Newsom’s signature Monday on Assembly Bill 37 makes California the eighth state in the nation with a law on the books requiring every voter to be mailed a ballot. The law takes effect in January and will require ballots to be mailed to all voters for statewide elections in June and November. AB 37 also applies to local elections, potentially improving turnout in community contests but also increasing costs, given that vote-by-mail ballots are provided with prepaid postage.

More than eight months after the acute polling embarrassment in the 2020 U.S. elections – that produced the sharpest discrepancy between the polls and popular vote outcome since 1980 – survey experts examining what went wrong say they have no definitive answers about why polls erred as markedly as they did. That inconclusive finding reported by a polling industry task force will do little to assuage popular skepticism about election polls which, in one way or another, have misfired in all U.S. presidential races but one since 1996. And if the source of the 2020 polling error cannot be pinpointed,...

As the Arizona audit of 2020 ballots winds down, progressive activists — continuing the tradition they laid out in that extraordinary TIME Magazine article where they admitted all the things they did to ensure a Biden win — are now admitting to traveling from California to Arizona and Georgia to help cure ballots in the days following the election.A California nonprofit called Unite Here is profiled in yet another extraordinary piece in The Atlantic in which they admit they sent activists across state lines to Arizona to help “cure” ballots in the days following the election.The article titled, “How Unite...

Two-hundred-and-eight days after Joe Biden became just the second Democrat presidential candidate to win Arizona’s electoral votes since 1948, Arizona Secretary of State Katie Hobbs is still getting death threats. Ms Hobbs, 51, has had to travel with a 24-hour security detail since 7 May, when Governor Doug Ducey assigned Department of Public Safety officers to protect her following her multiple threatening phone calls. One caller asked what she was wearing that day to ensure that she’d be “easy to get”. Another incident involved a videographer from the far-right conspiracy website The Gateway Pundit chasing her and an aide. Asked...

Nevada Democrats are ramming through legislation to make last year’s chaotic “emergency” voting procedures permanent. On Wednesday, the Democrat-controlled General Assembly approved a measure that would legalize ballot harvesting and make universal mail-in voting a permanent fixture of elections, both changes that were initially implemented to be temporary last year. Assembly Bill 321, now moving on for consideration in the upper chamber, requires registered voters to opt out rather than opt in to receiving a mail-in ballot. The law sets up ballots to be sent out automatically as they were in the fall, where nearly all votes cast were by...
