Verrrry long read, but a worthy read imo, about the election "fraud" in Maricopa County and the lasting damage that might be done if these pro-Trump auditors succeed in spreading their brand to other states.

Biden is not running. I think/hope the game plan is to let Biden take the heat first 2 years then let Kamala "campaign" for the last year or two.

I couldnt handle 4 more years of Trump ... which really is the true reason the far rights love Trump, bc he pisses off liberals.

Re: Election Day Thread - Nov. 3, 2020
 

I really doubt Trump will run again. He loves the drama of being in the limelight so he will wait until the last minute to make an announcement and drag out the intrigue as long as possible. But I don't think he can take losing another election. Or even a popular vote, for the 3rd time.

It is exactly why. Because he is certainly not a Republican or a conservative. His true base doesn’t even understand what any of that is. Never uttered the word liberal in their lives. They just like his racist, argumentative, childish qualities. Reminds them of home.

Residents of Trump-Loving Retirement Community Arrested for Allegedly Voting Twice in 2020 Election


Authorities have arrested and charged three residents of a Florida retirement community for allegedly casting more than one ballot in the 2020 election, multiple outlets reported on Tuesday. Joan Halstead, Jay Ketcik, and John Rider all face a third-degree felony charge for their votes, which could land them in prison for up to five years.

It’s unknown which candidate they favored, but Halstead and Ketcik are both registered Republicans, The Orlando Sentinel reported (Rider does not have a register party affiliation). The retirement community where the trio lived, The Villages, is also a well-known MAGA hub, and pro-Trump material has reportedly appeared on Facebook pages appearing to belong to Ketcik, Halstead, and Rider.

Mowers defends voting twice in 2 states for President in 2016


Kevin Landrigan, The New Hampshire Union Leader, Manchester
Wed, April 6, 2022, 4:07 AM


[url]https://news.yahoo.com/mowers-defends-voting-twice-2-080700654.html[/url]


Apr. 6—Republican primary opponents pounced Tuesday on 1st Congressional District candidate Matt Mowers after voting records showed he voted in two different states during the 2016 presidential primary cycle.

Even 2020 Democratic presidential nominee Hillary Clinton weighed in, accusing Mowers, an aide in former President Donald Trump's State Department, of committing voter fraud despite the national GOP's use of that claim as a "flimsy pretense" to restrict voting.

"Republican officials are so determined to transform voter fraud from a flimsy pretense for suppressing votes to an actual phenomenon, they keep committing it themselves," Clinton posted on Twitter.

Election records show Mowers, state director of 2016 presidential candidate Chris Christie's campaign, voted in the New Hampshire primary by absentee ballot in February 2016.

Christie dropped out a day after his disappointing sixth-place finish here.

Mowers left the state and returned to his native New Jersey, gave his parents' address to register to vote there in March and then voted for Donald Trump in New Jersey's presidential primary on June 7.

Charles Barnes, 64, and Jay Ketcik, 63, could face five years in prison for the third-degree felony, but will avoid jail time as long as they participate in 50 hours of community service and take a three-month civics class, among other requirements outlined by the state attorney.

This is what happens when attorneys go along with Kari Lake's election delusions



Laurie Roberts, Arizona Republic
Fri, July 14, 2023 at 3:35 PM EDT

Mark Finchem, Republican candidate for Arizona secretary of state and Kari Lake, Arizona gubernatorial candidate.
A federal judge on Friday ordered the attorneys for Kari Lake and Mark Finchem to pay Maricopa County $122,200 — money the county's taxpayers spent to fend off a “frivolous” lawsuit brought before last year’s election.

Turns out judges don’t much like to see the court system used as a campaign prop.

Attorneys should take note of this.

Lawsuit was simply a campaign stunt
You may recall that Lake and Finchem — with financial backing from MyPillow CEO Mike Lindell — filed suit in April 2022 while they were running for governor and secretary of state.

Their lawsuit asked a judge to bar the machine tabulation of votes in the 2022 election and require that paper ballots be used instead. They claimed that Arizona vote-counting machines produced inaccurate results and that there were no paper ballots to verify the machine count.

ATLANTA (AP) — Jenna Ellis, an attorney and prominent conservative media figure, reached a deal with prosecutors Tuesday and pleaded guilty to a reduced charge over efforts to overturn Donald Trump’s 2020 election loss in Georgia.

Ellis, the fourth defendant in the case to enter into a plea deal, was a vocal part of Trump’s reelection campaign in the last presidential cycle and was charged alongside the Republican former president and 17 others with violating the state’s anti-racketeering law.

Ellis pleaded guilty to a felony count of aiding and abetting false statements and writings. She had been facing charges of violating Georgia’s Racketeer Influenced and Corrupt Organizations Act and soliciting the violation of oath by a public officer.

Slap on the wrist for trying to over throw the US government as far as I am concerned. Too bad she didn't rob a 7-11 for $100 bucks then she would've gotten 5 years of jail instead of probation.

Actually that is not true. 95% of women in Europe live in countries that where abortion is available on request. I know there are term restrictions however the exemptions available in Europe essentially make all abortions available if needed. The 15 week proposal by Youngkin is so limiting it is farcical. If Republicans ever decide to get serious about reducing abortion and reducing late term abortions in particular, they need to first get serious about health care and reduction of poverty those are the two biggest driving factors in late term abortions in the United States despite most abortions being done by 13 weeks

Incorrect in [U]most[/U] of Europe abortions only for serious life threatening reasons or non-viability of the fetus are permitted after 12-18 weeks (depending on the country) elective abortions after the designated limit are illegal. I guess you somewhat say this as well when you said "if needed." That would be the same as what Youngkin was pushing.

BTW I think I know where you got your DATA - was it from here? -

[url]https://reproductiverights.org/wp-content/uploads/2020/12/European-abortion-law-a-comparative-review.pdf[/url]

It's a bit deceptive (probably for US political considerations)

"In the European Union (EU)
almost every country has
legalized abortion on request
or on broad social grounds."

[I][B](Until 12-18 Weeks) - is what they leave out until a few paragraphs down[/B][/I]

"Some ( [I][B]Actually most)[/B][/I] )European countries’ laws
set the time limit for abortion on
request or broad social grounds
between 18-24 weeks ([B][I]actually between 12-18 weeks in most[/I][/B] ) of pregnancy,
whereas many set the limit around
the first trimester of pregnancy.
However, all these countries’ laws
also allow access later in pregnancy
in specific circumstances, such as
where a woman’s health or life is
at risk ([I][B]This is the serious health /fetus nonviability bit[/B][/I]). The standard practice across
Europe is to not impose time limits
on these grounds.....?

Again, Youngkin wanted to establish abortion policy in line with what most of Europe (Actually most of the world with very few exceptions) has.
