Why Democrats Lie About Election Fraud

Why Democrats Lie About Election Fraud

I grew up in Chicago where vote stealing was a standard practice of the political machine.  It was so iconic that people often joked about it. And you know jokes have a seed of truth in them.

When Mayor Daley the First died, one observer opined that at least he can still vote.  When Illinois Democrat Senator accidentally voted twice on the floor of the Senate, he attributed it to his Chicago background.  Many Republicans switched parties and voted Democrat after they died.  The common mantra was “vote early and often.”

The jokes were based on reality.  At least three major civic organizations were devoted to fighting against vote fraud. 

The League of Women Voters had a task force on the issue.  I headed the City Club of Chicago that had an investigative arm address vote fraud.  There was a group called Project LEAP (Legal Elections in All Precincts).  In several elections, U.S. Marshals came in to protect the vote in the precincts with a history of election fraud – where party hacks from the Democrats held all the Republican observers’ spots.

Most of these efforts continued as late as my departure from the Windy City in 2013.  Vote fraud is an open secret in Chicago.  I had a private conversation with a Black Democrat precinct worker friend after CNN’s Chris Cuomo declared that there had not been more than 30 instances of vote fraud in the past ten years.  My friend laughed and said he would get that many illegal votes out of his precinct every election.

You do not see a lot of folks going to the slammer for vote fraud because it is virtually impossible to identify the culprits and take corrective measures.  For example, if we have more votes in a precinct than requests for ballots – a common occurrence – how do you find who did it?  And … how do you correct the corruption?  What votes do you remove from the count?  

You have the same problem when thousands of non-eligible voters – including the deceased – cast a vote. 

It is virtually impossible to effectively address vote fraud after the fact.  The secret ballot shields those committing the fraud.  That is why counting court cases as a measure of vote fraud does not tell the story.

The most effective way to address and minimize vote fraud is a strong defense. We need a secure system that keeps the balloting process – from registration to certification – within a transparent chain of security.  History has made it clear that any weak spots in that process can, and will, result in the illegal manipulation of the vote.

While Democrats claim that their reforms are only to expand the right to vote to more citizens, they also provide backdoor weaknesses that are available to those skilled in election fraud and manipulating votes.  It would take a full tutorial to explain all the means by which vote counts can more easily be altered through the so-called reforms – and very difficult to detect, correct and prosecute.  These include early voting, vote harvesting and same-day registration. But the most obvious evidence that Democrats do not want safe elections is their refusal to remove ineligible voters from the voting rolls and a strict requirement for proper voter identification.  The majority of the American public supports both of those actions.

Let’s make it simple. 

THE ONLY REASON TO NOT REMOVE THE INELEGIBLE VOTERS FROM THE VOTING ROLLS IS BECAUSE THEY CAN BE – AND ARE – USED TO STEAL VOTES. 

Every one of such votes that is recorded is prima facie proof of vote fraud.  And we had millions of proven examples in the 2020 presidential election.

Of course, those most responsible for vote fraud are the very ones most insistent that it does not exist.  They will deny it even in the face of incontrovertible proof.  Those false claims are reminiscent of what we hear from despotic authoritarian governments in such places as China, Russia, Cuba, Venezuela, North Korea, Iran, etc.  The claims that we do not have serious issues of vote fraud is propaganda for the ears of fools.

What we see in 47 of our 50 states across the nation is an important and legitimate BIPARTISAN effort to preserve the constitutional rights of states to manage elections and to reinforce the protective shield around our elections.  It is a push back against Democrat efforts to nationalize the American election for the first time in history in the form of House Resolution (HR) 1. 

And IF the election was fraud free – as Democrats and their media allies claim – why do we need HR 1? 

That answer to that is simple.  Democrats want to block the states’ constitutional right and responsibility to establish fair and reasonable protections against vote count manipulation.

So, there ‘tis.

      This is a very good story, but you seem to have left out a lot of very important information. The first thing is that every ballot not used at the actual polls is registered and if the name coming back does not correspond to the person the ballot was sent to then it is questioned and possibly thrown out. Then there is the tally sheets created at every step of the voting process, one is created when you present yourself to vote, then one is created when the votes at the voting machine or box are counted, prior to being sent to the place where all votes are sent to be counted, now every vote put in that transfer box is counted and another tally sheet created and when those votes arrive at the counting center another tally sheet is generated, and when the votes are counted each counter has a tally sheet to fill out and at every step those tally sheets have multiple copies , and a copy goes to every effected person up to 12 copies, now when the vote totals do not match the amount on the tally sheets there is a huge investigation to find out why the totals are different. This is exactly why not one person involved in the elections has ever claimed anything about Voter Fraud just out side persons who had nothing to do with the actual election in any way.
      Trump could not win the first election and with every President put in office by the electoral College who did not win the popular vote they have been a one term President and Bush was only exception saved by the horror of the Twin Towers.

        *YOU* tell a fine story. But have you not been paying attention enough to know that many key precincts seemingly deliberately ignored many of those intended safeguards, and made it impossible to determine which votes were produced with a proper identification and chain of custody?

    Larry,
    I read your post several times, there’s no proof as your email suggested, just a “black friend” told me. That’s not proof.
    But I suspect you already knew that.
    Again, Texas LT Governor is paying BIG money for actual proof of voter fraud. You could be a rich man if you inform him of your “proof”.

    • pcwalt

      Chicago has been famous for election fraud for more than 150 years. New York City has been famous for election fraud for more than 200 years (as have Philadelphia and several others). Tell us you don’t know this, and we will know how trustworthy your opinion on the matter is.

    As another former Chicagoan now turned staunch conservative living in Wisconsin, I can relate fully to your “vote early vote often” article. I am black and lived in Chicago’s south side until my 40s. I saw the steal for decades until Harold Washington broke the mUoral color ceiling. Then I saw The Vordoliaks and the Burkes other career machine aldermen constantly steal the vote over and over again. Once Obama went national, Chicago crooked politics went national with him.

    Now opinion are just that, nothing more nothing less. Where is all this proof of voter fraud, that you speak of, if it is so massive, why is it the effected party has not taken it to law enforcement, who investigates any thing to do with law breaking and voter fraud, which is a violation of the law. Now even in RED states their law enforcement can find no voter fraud in any way, if they did it would be made to be the biggest headlines in history.
    These Voter Fraud allegations are investigated all the time in the case of the 2020 elections over 1000 ,allegations of voter fraud were investigated by State and Federal law Enforcement with appointed members of both political parties involved and not one of the 1000 voter fraud allegations was proven correct in any way.

    Of course demorats want to rig elections that’s the only way they can achieve communist ways in america. You seen it already in less than 100 days the push to pay back china by the pedofile installed in the white house. I say time for civil war is upon us. Time we drag out the communist in our govorment and hang them for treason starting with john roberts. He is supposed to protect our constitution but he always wipes his ass on it.

      John,
      Republican voters are a minority party. You haven’t won the popular vote in almost 20 years, and only once in the last 36. Studies indicate that college aged voters lean overwhelmingly toward progressive policies. Republican didn’t win an individual age demographic in the last election until you get to the 55+ group. Your voter base is rapidly dying off.
      If you don’t like the direction the Country is heading, leave. Violence is not the answer. You guys already tried that and now 400+ of your voters are facing federal felony charges. Republicans have largely fought against felons being able to vote, so you have lost even more voters. Conservatives fought a civil war once already and lost badly, why would you want to alienate even more voters?

    What I have always told people today is that when you are evaluating a good on-line electronics retail store, there are a few components that you have to consider. First and foremost, you need to make sure to choose a reputable as well as reliable retailer that has received great reviews and classification from other individuals and business sector advisors. This will make certain you are getting along with a well-known store to provide good support and aid to the patrons. Many thanks for sharing your thinking on this website.

    I would like to inform all of the huggers of the corrupt, criminal democratic party, that Joe Biden is a damn fraud and cheat like the last election we had.
