State Legislatures Chose Electors is the Answer

 

 

A Summary of the Texas Election Lawsuit

By Robert Madsen www.americanthinker.com

Texas claims that the presidential elections as held (and as directed by government officials outside the legislature) in Pennsylvania, Georgia, Wisconsin, and Michigan all flagrantly violated their own election laws by materially weakening or doing away with security measures.  Further, according to the U.S. Constitution, the legislature (representing the citizens) of each state has absolute authority and responsibility for how presidential electors are chosen; the will of legislature being expressed through state law.

Texas claims that the violations of election law in these states created an environment where ballot fraud was enabled and likely to occur.  The lawsuit lists the violations of law in each of the defendant states and provides evidence of fraud (the number of ballots handled unconstitutionally) in each of the states sufficient to change the outcome of the ballot counts.

Pennsylvania

Facts:

1. Vote Tally: 3,445,548 for Biden and 3,363,951 for Trump - margin 81,597.
2. Requests for mail-in ballots 70% Democrats and 25% Republicans.
3. Mail-in ballots increased from 266,208 in 2016 to over 3,000,000 in 2020.

Violations of Election Law:

1. The Secretary of State unilaterally abrogated signature verification requirements for mail-in ballots.
2. PA supreme court changed existing deadline for receiving mail-in ballots from 8:00 PM on the day of election to 3 days after the election and adopted a presumption that non-postmarked ballots be considered as valid.
3. Election officials in Philadelphia and Allegheny Counties did not follow state law permitting poll-watchers to be present for the opening, counting, and recording of mail-in ballots.
4. The Secretary of State directed election officials to remove ballots before 7:00 AM on the day of election in order to “cure” defective mail-in ballots.  This was done only in Democrat majority counties.
5. Election officials did not segregate ballots received after 8:00 PM on election day breaking the promise made to the U.S. Supreme Court thus making it impossible to identify or remove those ballots.

Evidence of Fraud:

1. Ballots with no mailed date: 9,005 (no evidence they were sent to a voter)
2. Ballots returned on or before the mailed date: 58,221
3. Ballots returned one day after the mailed date: 51,200 (Perhaps not impossible, but highly unlikely for the average voter to receive a ballot, fill it out, place it in the mail and have it returned the next day.)
4. On Nov 2, the day before the election, PA reports that 2.7 million ballots had been sent out.  On Nov 4 that number had increased to 3.1 million -- an increase of 400,000 mail-in ballots at election time with literally no reasonable chance of them being used by legitimate voters.

Georgia

Facts:

1. Vote Tally: 2,472,098 for Biden and 2,458,121 for Trump - margin 12,670.
2. Mail-in ballots: 65.32% for Biden and 34.68% for Trump.
3. Mail-in ballots increased from 213,033 in 2016 to 1,305,659 in 2020.

Violations of Election Law:

1. The Secretary of State unilaterally abrogated signature verification requirements for mail-in ballots.
2. The Secretary of State authorized opening and processing mail-in ballots up to three weeks before election day when the law prohibits that until after the polls open on election day.
3. The Secretary of State materially weakened the security requirements for ballot rejection based on signature verification or other missing information.

Evidence of Fraud:

1. Mail-in ballot rejection rate for missing or inaccurate information or for non-matching signatures decreased from 6.42% in 2016 to .36% in 2020.  Rejecting 2020 ballots at the same rate as 2016 would have resulted in a net gain of 25,587 votes for Trump – twice the number needed to overcome Biden’s count.  With a six-fold increase in the number of mail-in ballots, reason would indicate that the rejection rate would increase, or at least stay the same, with so many first-time mail-in ballots.

Michigan

Facts:

1. Vote Tally: 2,796,702 for Biden and 2,650,695 for Trump - margin 146,007.
2. In 2016 587,618 voters requested mail-in ballots.  In 2020 3.2 million votes were cast by mail-in ballot.
3. Democrats voted by mail at a rate approximately two times that of Republican voters.

Violations of Election Law:

1. The Secretary of State unilaterally abrogated signature verification requirements for mail-in ballots.
2. The Secretary of State sent out unsolicited ballots to all 7.7 million registered voters contrary to election law which requires a voter to request a mail-in ballot through a process that includes a signature to be matched with the voter registration.
3. The Secretary of State also allowed absentee ballots to be requested online without signature verification.
4. Local election officials in Wayne County -- containing 322,925 more ballots for Biden than for Trump -- opened and processed mail-in ballots without poll-watchers present.
5. Local election officials in Wayne County also ignored the strict election law requirements of placing a written statement or stamp on each ballot envelope indicating that the voter signature was in fact checked and verified with the signature on file with the state.

Evidence of Fraud:

1. 174,384 mail-in ballots in Wayne County had no valid registration number, indicating they likely resulted from election workers running the same ballots through the tabulator multiple times.
2. 71% of Wayne County Absent Voter Counting Boards were unbalanced, where the number of people who checked in did not match the number of ballots cast.

Wisconsin

Facts:

1. Vote Tally: 1,630,716 for Biden and 1,610,151 for Trump - margin 20,565.
2. Mail-in ballots increased from 146,932 in 2016 to 1,275,019 in 2020.

Violations of Election Law:

1. The Wisconsin Elections Commission (WEC) positioned hundreds of unmanned illegal drop boxes to collect absentee ballots.  (The use of any drop box, manned or unmanned, is directly prohibited by Wisconsin statute.  Any alternate mail-in ballot site “shall be staffed by the municipal clerk or the executive director of the board of election commissioners…”  “Ballots cast in contravention of the procedures specified in those provisions may not be included in the certified result of any election.”)
2. The WEC encouraged voters to unlawfully declare themselves “indefinitely confined” in order to avoid security measures like signature verification and photo ID requirements.  Nearly 216,000 voters said they were indefinitely confined in the 2020 election, nearly four times as many as in 2016.
3. Strict laws requiring mail-in voters to certify by signature including the signature of an adult witness were ignored or circumvented by election officials.

Evidence of Fraud:

1. One hundred thousand ballots were supposedly missing and directed to be “found” after election day.

Conclusion

Significant violations of election law that were put into place to protect against election fraud is sufficient to invalidate the results of the elections, apart from whatever evidence is able to be gathered in a short time to show actual numbers of fraudulent ballots.  Reason would indicate that there is a high number of fraudulent ballots that are impossible to identify, which is why the election laws pertaining to mail-in ballots were established to begin with.

There is no remedy to correct the Nov 3^rd election because ballots that did not adhere to election law cannot be identified as separate from those that did.  An accurate count of legal ballots that were cast cannot be made.  Therefore, as directed in the Constitution, it falls to the legislature of each state to choose electors as has been done in the past.  Failing that, each state may determine not to submit any presidential electors.

The Texas lawsuit claims the odds of Biden overcoming Trump’s lead and winning any of the states after the point indicated was one in a quadrillion.  And therefore, the odds of winning all four was one in a quadrillion to the fourth power.  The lawsuit did not provide information on how that number was determined.  This may seem an exaggerated to some.  It is enough to state that the odds of winning any one of the states was highly unlikely and the odds of winning all four were extremely unlikely.  For example, if the odds of winning any one of the states was numerically much less extreme but still highly unlikely, say something like one in twenty, then the odds of doing that in all four states would be 1 in  160,000.  Twenty beans in a jar: 19 white and 1 black.  Reach in without looking and be lucky enough to pull out the one black bean.  Chances of doing that again is 1 in 400.  Clearly indicative of cheating if someone claims to have done that four times in a row.  As I said the statistical analysis behind the claim of odds of 1 in a 1,000,000,000,000 are not given so I cannot speak to that.  But even if the odds were orders of magnitude better than that, they were still astronomically small.  At any rate, the merits of the lawsuit do not depend on any certain level of odds of Biden overcoming a lead that had been established by 3:00 A.M. the day after election.

 

Illegal Voter Registration = Lawlessness = Destruction of Our Republic

 

 

How Illegal Alien Voting Corrupts Our Elections

12/7/2020 - Dale Wilcox Townhall.com

In the chaotic weeks since the presidential election in November, the news from conservative media has been dominated with charges of suspicious late-night deliveries of mail-in ballots and statistically impossible vote surges for the Biden-Harris ticket. While those are serious charges that require investigation, they are just some of the many ways we have learned how our electoral process is wide open for manipulation. Another way is the presence of non-citizens in the United States finding their way onto voting rolls, and it is just as great a threat as what has been alleged by the Trump campaign.

The American people have been warned about this for years. Illegal immigration metastasizes throughout our country and harms it in innumerable ways. Some of the most obvious symptoms are more competition for jobs, higher crime, and more drain on limited social services resources.

Then there are the less noticeable but equally dangerous other effects, like the harm it does to our electoral process. My organization, the Immigration Reform Law Institute, recently completed an investigation into electoral procedures in North Carolina, and the results are disturbing.

In many states, jurors are selected from lists of driver’s license holders and those on voting rolls. We found that in Mecklenburg County, the state’s second most populous county which includes metropolitan Charlotte, a total of 51 individuals were removed from the jury pool list because of non-citizenship between October 28, 2019 to July 7, 2020, as confirmed to us by the county’s Jury Office. We found similar results in two other large counties, Cumberland and Forsyth.

While a spokesman for the state’s judicial branch told us the non-citizens came from the driver’s license records, it does not eliminate the possibility that they are coming from voter rolls. Even the potential that they are coming from voter rolls brings the integrity of North Carolina elections into question. What revelations might a more comprehensive, statewide investigation bring, in North Carolina or any other state?

There is unlikely to be a wider investigation into this problem, however, in North Carolina or elsewhere. Why? Because the end result of the problem benefits certain politicians and their parties. While the Democrats are the primary beneficiaries of this, there are plenty of establishment Republicans who passively support it. Why fix something that is serving them so well?

That illegal immigration is tainting the integrity of our elections is not an unintended consequence, but rather it is by design. It is designed to keep money flowing into incumbents’ re-election campaigns and to allow them to stay in power.

Politicians have become practiced at selling mass migration to the public. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez in 2018 was photographed, grief-stricken, at the gates of an immigrant detention facility in Texas which was actually an empty road. Sen. Chuck Schumer once brought out Syrian immigrants as human shields for a press conference and even burst into tears while attacking President Trump’s travel ban.

They put on quite a show that probably sways some people to their side, but it obfuscates from the true objective: to use immigration as a near-infinite source of new voters who will reliably vote for establishment politicians who offer them safe haven in America and access to a deep pool of welfare benefits, schools and jobs. American citizens who may suffer from all this are acceptable collateral damage. As a cherry on top, Big Business industries looking for the cheap labor that mass immigration provides will underwrite the campaigns of ambitious politicians if they play ball.

This thinly-veiled voter registration drive is buttressed by a host of other related policy positions. Not coincidentally, anti-borders politicians are also against voter ID requirements at polling places, restrictions on mail-in voting, and any attempt to authenticate voter signatures. Anything that brings more transparency to elections is clearly a sign of racism towards those who don’t look like us. It’s a devilishly clever scheme: subvert the legitimate electoral process to feather your own political nest, while wrapping yourself in the veneer of a true humanitarian doing it in the name of civil rights for all. Machiavelli couldn’t have done it better.

The presidential election of 2020 should go down in history with a giant asterisk for the Third World manner in which the votes were tabulated. It should also be a sign of things to come if we continue to allow the malignant effects of illegal and excessive legal immigration on our country to go untreated.

State Legislators MUST Do Their Duty!

 

If vote fraud wins in 2020, prepare for life to get ugly

By Martin Marcus americanthinker.com

In the aftermath of the 2020 presidential election, we have heard about massive voter fraud in Arizona, Georgia, Michigan, Nevada, Pennsylvania, and Wisconsin.  It appears that the fraud, if reversed, would change the winner in these states from Joe Biden to Donald Trump.  The electoral votes in question add to 79.  This would give Trump a total of 311, easily making him the winner.

Trump has tried suing to right the situation, but unfortunately, almost all of the judges hearing the cases dismiss them without even giving Trump's lawyers the right of discovery.  These judges are ignoring several smoking guns.

Will the Supreme Court come to the rescue?  If they do, they can make judgments regarding only the crimes that may have been committed.  They cannot decide who gets the electors.  This is the state legislators' responsibility.  It will be helpful if the Court reminds the legislators of this.

For the states in question, all but Nevada have a Republican majority in their legislatures.  I assume that the Nevada majority is pleased with the Democrat electors.  The rest of the state legislature majorities should be champing at the bit to invalidate the election and make their own choice.  To their credit, they are having hearings on this issue.  Unfortunately, they fear backlash from the press.  As low-level politicians, some of them may not have the courage to undo the damage and elect a Republican slate of electors.  If this is the case, then the criminals will have won.  They will commit this crime in every subsequent election, including the January Senate runoff in Georgia.  There will be a Democrat majority in the House, the Senate, and every state Legislature.  Acting like cowards will ensure their political demise.

With this new government, most people will have very little control over their lives.  Those at the top of government will have a lot of power and will probably take a lot of perverse pleasure in it.  State legislators in what will become the minority party are not at the top of government and will have no more power than the rest of us.

What kind of changes will we have to endure?  We will wear masks forever.  There will always be a medical crisis mandating them.

There will be a war on combustion.  We will be forced to drive electric cars or no car at all.  Barack Obama began this effort in 2009 with his "cash for clunkers" program.

Thanks to new regulations, we will pay much higher prices for technology and medical care.

We will have medical death panels.  It is already starting.  The first to receive the COVID-19 vaccine will be health care workers and nursing home residents.  So far, the choice is palatable, but who will be the next one to be deemed worthy of survival?  I assume that I will be dead last (pun intended).

The war on combustion means there will be no fossil fuel to heat our homes.  We will have to use heat pumps exclusively.  Heat pumps require refrigerant.  There is already a high price for refrigerant because of previous regulations.  Expect the price to go higher.  All of this will lead to rationing of electricity.  There will be either rolling blackouts or central control of the thermostat.  The latter already occurs in some people's homes.

Government monitoring of our telephone calls and internet use will continue.

All guns will be confiscated.

The state legislators will not be exempt from this horror.

I call upon all Republican state legislators in Arizona, Georgia, Michigan, Pennsylvania, and Wisconsin to reject the 2020 presidential elections in their states as inconclusive and vote in their own slate of electors.  Make democracy great again.

 

 

Rule of Law Must Prevail to Save Our Republic

 

What if all the judges are cowards?

By Patricia McCarthy Americanthinker.com

Despite the glaring evidence of astronomical vote fraud, the local election officials who participated in the fraud or witnessed it have naturally been stubborn in their refusal to admit the cheating.

The state judges before whom some of the lawsuits have come have likewise refused to admit there is cause for taking these incidents on.

Now that the crisis has reached a fever pitch, hundreds of whistleblowers have come forward and sworn affidavits as to what they saw.  There have been public hearings in Michigan, Pennsylvania, and Arizona so far.  They have gone on for hours as person after person has testified to the ballot malfeasance they observed.  The mainstream media have of course ignored all of this.  Whatever they deign to report is characterized by numerous negative modifiers meant to deceive the public –- "baseless," "unwarranted," "desperate," "unproven," "unsubstantiated," etc. — as if the president has mounted this crusade against vote fraud for fun.  Bottom line?  There is, as Sidney Powell has said, a tsunami of evidence of long planned, unconstitutional, illegal election-rigging for Democrat gains.  And they did it in so many deceitful ways. 

At this moment in time, there is no doubt that the president won the election in greater numbers than the cheaters had imagined possible.  As he was gaining on Election Night beyond their expectations, they called a halt to vote counting for hours in order to catch up with hundreds of thousands of phony ballots from anywhere they could find or manufacture them.

The chicanery was thankfully detected by the many witnesses who have now come forward but are being thoroughly disregarded by the propagandists at CNN, MSNBC, CBS, ABC, and NBC.  These outlets are not one bit dedicated to disseminating actual information to the public; their job is to propagandize, to control the prescribed narrative, and to hide the news.  Any threat to that narrative will be shut down, derisively mocked as though it were as fantastical as a comic book.  That is how the American media operates.  Sadly, even Fox News has joined their "we will tell you what is true" liars club.  So much for Fox News; it's over for the millions of viewers who have supported the cable news outlet for decades.  It turns out all those "conservative" anchors and hosts either were faking it then or are doing the Murdoch sons' bidding now.  Either way, not one of them is trustworthy, not even Tucker Carlson or Laura Ingraham.  Only their yappy but truly loyal Sean Hannity is true to his word. 

But as the tales of vote fraud are legion, those charged with dispensing the law have so far been shockingly cowardly.  As we hear about the whistleblowers receiving death threats, several even having been beaten, one has to wonder — are even our judges afraid to render a verdict that could endanger their lives, or their families' lives?  Throughout the year, as city after city was looted, burned, and utterly destroyed, Joe Biden and Kamala Harris had not a single disparaging word about all the violence and destruction meted out by BLM and Antifa.  They could not or would not; the members and adherents of both of those gangs of thugs are whom they counted on to vote for them.  Kamala was busy raising funds to bail out the rioters, looters, and arsonists.  Even more frightening for judges, some have been targeted.  Could it be that the left has so terrorized any and all Trump-supporters, those of us who value our once-civilized society and our law enforcement personnel, that even those elected or appointed to uphold our Constitution are afraid to do what they know what is right and lawful? 

Jonathan Turley wrote the other day that he has received death threats for his writing on the law that favors Trump.  He is not a Trump-supporter; he is a constitutional scholar who has been threatened for words on the law the left abhors.  If the SCOTUS declines to accept the vote fraud cases that will be presented to it, it may well be that the justices, too, fear the violent left. 

How else could we explain their refusal to take on the most monstrous and obvious, the most documented vote fraud in U.S. history?  If they take any one of the cases that might come before them, do they fear a resurgence of the rioting, looting, arson, and murder that plagued so many cities over this past year?  Do they fear for themselves?  If they do decline to take up a case and rule against those who have so clearly rigged the election with the certainty that Biden would be declared the winner, what does that mean for America as founded?

It means the nation as founded is over and done, that those elected or appointed to uphold the Constitution have become weak, frightened men and women who fear upsetting the worst among us, those who delight in violence and destruction.

"To see the right and not to do it is cowardice." —Confucius

May our appointed justices gird their loins and shut down the left's habitual vote fraud and set this nation on a righteous course.
