The scope of Democrat attempts to gain an illicit advantage in the 2024 election is breathtaking.
The latest maneuver comes from Democrat Colorado judges, appointed by Democrats, to keep Trump off the ballot. The decision was based a series of dubious allegations. The first baseless premise is that the one-day riot at the Capitol was an “insurrection” similar to the Civil War. The concept that a portion of the 14th Amendment, designed to prohibit former Confederates from holding office, is applicable to Trump is absurd. Further, there is no convincing evidence that Trump was responsible for the trespass into the building.
The Colorado decision is merely the latest example.
Democrats have diligently worked to prevent ballot security measures from being enacted. As the Biden Administration has flooded the nation with illegal immigrants, attempts to get them to vote will be a major challenge.
In New York City. In 2021, NPR reported that New York City wanted to allow 800,000 noncitizens to vote in local elections. The measure was struck down in court.
Act for America reports that “The concept [of non-citizen voting through lax security] is not new. Only 5 states feature citizenship status on their drivers license or state issued identification card including Alabama, Arizona, California, Colorado, and Wisconsin…Unfortunately, only the State of Alabama requires a legal form of identification that also requires proof of citizenship and they do not accept inferior forms of ID to vote in their state. This leaves us with 49 States that DO NOT have any security as it relates to proof of citizenship to vote. We are relying on the honor system, without oversight and accountability. 49 states allow inferior forms of identification at the polls that do not verify citizenship status, including Employee ID Cards, Student ID cards, a Fishing License, Bank Statements, Credit Cards with or without a photo, social security cards, and other absurd forms of identification.”
A Townhall analysis quoted Rep. Mike Johnson (R-La.) warning that Biden wants to turn illegal migrants into Democrat voters— hence the reason the administration is looking the other way at one of the worst border crises of U.S. history. “The Biden administration has done this intentionally. [Department of Homeland Security] Secretary [Alejandro] Mayorkas has done this intentionally. For what reason? Everybody asks me all the time. I think that ultimately they hope to turn all these illegals into voters for their side,” Johnson said. “It sounds sinister, but there’s no other explanation for what’s happening down there. It’s an absolute humanitarian and now national security crisis — catastrophe really — and they could reverse it overnight if they wanted to, but they don’t.”
In prior elections, Democrats have sought to ignore existing ballot laws. Just one example: American Military News notes that Republicans are backing an appeal in a federal lawsuit seeking to overturn an Illinois law that allows mail-in ballots cast on or before Election Day to be counted up to 14 days afterward.
The use of election workers to engage in Democrat-oriented partisan activities is a growing problem. A Daily Signal review that “A nonpartisan organization that trains election workers from across the country is now being run by two liberal voting activists—one who previously worked for the nonprofit that distributed hundreds of millions of dollars of Mark Zuckerberg’s election grants during the 2020 elections. The grants were supposedly to “help” local governments run elections, but most of the money went to election offices in Democrat-run localities. Meanwhile, most board members of the National Association of Election Officials, commonly known as The Election Center, are current or former elections officials from heavily blue counties. “Left-wing activists want to insert ‘progressive’ groups into our election machinery, making partisan actors a permanent part of how we count ballots in all future elections,” Hayden Ludwig, director of public policy research at conservative advocacy group Restoration of America, told The Daily Signal.”
The results of all of this are obvious. In June, a Rasmussen poll revealed that “A majority of voters continue to suspect widespread election fraud, and expect cheating at the ballot box to influence the 2024 presidential election…54% of Likely U.S. Voters believe cheating is likely to affect the outcome of the next presidential election, including 30% who think it’s Very Likely.”
