"If You Want To Win, Get More Votes to Beat Election Fraud..."

American Family News: If you want to win, get more votes to beat the fraud
Looking at America’s political landscape, a former U.S. Justice Department attorney says all is not lost for our country but people must vote to make a difference.

In recent weeks, Democrats have been emboldened by two big election victories: a key Wisconsin election for a state supreme court seat and the mayoral run-off election in Chicago. Democrats heavily outspent Republicans to put Janet Protasiewicz on the state court, and Chicago voters chose a radical defund-the-police candidate to oversee their crime-plagued city.

Christian Adams, who is president and general counsel of the Public Interest Legal Foundation, tells AFN there is still hope. “I don't think it's a lost cause yet,” he insists, “because the Founders, in their brilliance, always put the final say with the mass of the people.”

In other words: More votes wins. “Because I'm convinced we're still a good country,” he says. “We still value basic things that we've valued for generations.”

The key to winning races, Adams advises, is to "dive deeper” into the population to find and register voters, and then urge them to cast a ballot.

To his credit, Adams knows a lot about voting laws as well as voter fraud. He witnessed the worst of the Left from inside the Obama-led Justice Department, where he emerged as a whistleblower. He has since exposed voter fraud, such as a vacant lot used as a fake address. He also warns about legal voter fraud schemes such as ballot harvesting. So he personally understands the difficulty of a fair and legal election.
 
We've got local elections coming up and a new thing here is we're going to have to produce photo ID at the polling station to vote.

There has only been a few reports of election fraud in the UK and from what I gather it's mostly been in the Birmingham area and is not regarded as being widespread.

I'm not going to bother voting anymore. The electoral college overrides the popular vote anyway. My vote doesn't matter.

Most states require that all electoral votes go to the candidate who receives the most votes in that state. After state election officials certify the popular vote of each state, the winning slate of electors meet in the state capital and cast two ballots—one for Vice President and one for President. Electors cannot vote for a Presidential and Vice Presidential candidate who both hail from an elector’s home state. For instance, if both candidates come from New York, New York’s electors may vote for one of the candidates, but not both. In this hypothetical scenario, however, Delaware’s electors may vote for both New York candidates. This requirement is a holdover from early American history when one of the country’s major political fault lines divided big states from small states. The founders hoped this rule would prevent the largest states from dominating presidential elections.

Yes! This happened to George W. Bush in 2000, who lost the popular vote to Al Gore by .51% but won the electoral college 271 to 266.

As explained above, the President is not chosen by a nation-wide popular vote but is determined by the electoral college. In all elections since the nation’s founding, except for three, the popular vote aligned with the electoral votes.

The three elections where the popular vote differed from the electoral votes were: the Hayes/Tilden election of 1876, the Harrison/Cleveland election of 1888, and Bush/Gore in 2000.

Speaking of which....

Yeah, because we should trust the judgment of New York, Los Angeles, Chicago, St. Louis and other big cities alone.... :rolleyes:
 
"In other words: More votes wins. “Because I'm convinced we're still a good country,” he says. “We still value basic things that we've valued for generations.”

That is the funniest joke I've heard all week!

But let me break this part down: "We still value basic things that we've valued for generations".

1) Racism
2) Prejudice
3) Sexism and, specifically, ensuring females have no say over what they do with their body (or their vote)
4) Pricing out lower socioeconomic classes so that they will never be able to afford property
5) Keeping ignorant, greedy, dirty, underhanded politicians in power to decide what the citizens of this country and and cannot do
6) Guns and lack of responsibility on their owners

Yeah, let's go back to that. :rolleyes:

Maybe you should run for president instead if that's the case.

I'm too blunt and too damned opinionated to do that.

Come on man, I want to be on the Webster Administration. That'd be cool. If you were to win the election, we could get a cut of the profits on us selling weapons to other countries like Obama, Clinton, and Trump did.

 
My one little vote may not count for very much but people have fought wars and died just so that I can be free to have that one little vote.
I always use it,
