What if you're not following any of the rules?  What if you are allowing ballots to be submitted after election day?  What if you are double-counting ballots?  What if you allow changes to be made in election machine software, and then not re-certify the machines?  What if you don't check signatures on mail-in ballots or even accept mail-in ballots without signatures?  What if you set up more absentee ballot drop-off boxes than the law allows?  What if fail to monitor those drop boxes?  What if you allow ballot harvesting in violation of State law?  What if you fail to have a chain of custody for absentee ballot box pickups?  Repeatedly.  What if you accept new mail-in and online voter registrations without proper ID follow-up?  What if you tally ballots outside the hours when Republican observers are present?  And what if you hire a highly partisan political action group to be in charge of collecting ballots?

Each and every one of these things took place in Georgia in 2020/21.  Twice.

Then there is nothing you can do that will work, and you had best prepare for the Second American Revolution.

But before that begins, I suggest trying every legal means. And that includes exploiting laws that the Democrats have created.
After 40 years of being lied to by people who called themselves "Conservatives", I no longer consider myself to be a "Conservative".

Excellent point. All the rules in the world mean nothing if infractions aren't enforced, or not even observed because there is no transparency.
The Republic is lost.

The GOP has now won 218 seats after the Associated Press projected that Republican Mike Garcia will win reelection in California's 27th Congressional District.

we knew this yesterday...when are they going to announce Kelly?

If the Dems can turn one Republican, then they will do everything possible to keep the GOP at 218 seats.  Find the most liberal Republican in the House, and that person (along with 217 Democrat votes) could be your next House Speaker.

And again I say, it isn't cheating if you are following the rules as written.

The miracle of the ‘22 midterm is that GOP will take the House *in spite* of Democrats’ gargantuan ballot harvesting advantage. That is a testament to the enormous depths of Joe Biden’s unpopularity.

Either work with every legal means available, give up, or prepare for war. Those are your three options.

If you think using legal means in an attempt to win elections is more immoral than consigning hundreds of millions to tyranny, or killing thousands or millions in a war, you have a strange moral compass.

If democrats do it without breaking the law then how is it cheating? Morally wrong? Meh, don’t think we have a choice any more.

Wrong!  We do have a choice.  We DO NOT have to accept what they are condoning. It may be the 'way of the leftists' but we can still stand for what we believe is right.

A fool's errand... The reason it works for them is because it expands their ballot stuffing into an industry. Unless you mean to stuff ballots too... You'll always wind up short.

Alaska Update: Kelly Tshibaka Maintains Narrow Lead over Sen. Murkowski in First Round, Sarah Palin Trails Democrat

Jordan Dixon-Hamilton 16 Nov 2022

Sen. Lisa Murkowski (R-AK) is cutting into her Republican opponent Kelly Tshibaka’s lead in the Alaska senate race, and Republican Sarah Palin trails Democrat Rep. Mary Peltola in the race for Alaska’s lone congressional seat, according to Alaska’s latest vote count update.

Tshibaka, who earned an endorsement from former President Donald Trump, has a narrow lead over pro-impeachment Sen. Murkowski. After roughly 27,000 more votes were counted on Tuesday, Tshibaka’s lead was cut from 3,000 to 565.

Tshibaka and Murkowski both have approximately 43 percent of the vote. Under Alaska’s new ranked-choice voting system, voters’ second and third choices will be tabulated if neither candidate earns more than 50 percent of the vote.

As Breitbart News explained:

    All candidates from all parties appear on the ballot together in the August primary. The top four vote-getters regardless of party then advance to the general election, and their voters are given the opportunity to pick their top choice, as well as their second and third choices. If no candidate in the first round of voters’ first choices gets 50 percent of the vote, the last place candidate’s second choices are distributed across the remaining three candidates to see if someone can get across the majority threshold. If that fails again to produce a majority vote-getter, then a third round is conducted where the third place candidate’s votes are redistributed according to second choices between the remaining two candidates.

Yeah, our side wants to be virtuous while their side wants to win.  However, these particularly nasty winners then go about imposing their dystopian world vision on the rest of us.  Those are the rules.  Want change?  Then, win elections.

The point being that no one can change who you are and what you believe in but you. Stand strong in your beliefs, your integrity and your values is the message I was trying to convey.

You want to win elections??  That's not going to happen until the RNC, GOP and voters find a way to ensure election integrity.

And that won't happen until the entire GOP wants that.

I have said the absence of aggressive changes to election laws which enabled the Steal has not happened because the  GOPe or elements thereof find it handy to take out 'noisome' elements within the GOP, no matter how popular.

Seventeen Techniques for Truth Suppression

Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.

It’s the chicken and the egg dilemma.  In regards to election reform which must come first?  My answer, winning (rigged) elections—by any means necessary.  Then, legislatively unrigging them.

Of course, that must happen state by state.

After roughly 27,000 more votes were counted on Tuesday, Tshibaka’s lead was cut from 3,000 to 565.

How convenient.  That means Murkowski, who was only pulling in 42% of the vote, magically collected over 55% of these 27,000 votes.

From what I understand that with the ranking garbage to determine winner, it is almost a certainty that all the dim candidate's "2nd choice" votes will go to Murkowski.  This race was decided months ago.

Of course, that must happen state by state.

That's what I don't understand @aligncare -- ultimately it is up to the State's to implement election reform, I get that, but also each state has to abide by federal law.  At least that is how it has been explained to me. So you would think that our GOP Senators and Congressmen would be 'encouraging' a change in election laws and 'encourage' the States to do something along with the RNC.  You would think that the GOP governors would get up off their butts. 

Then there needs to be something in place to ensure that the Supervisor of Elections follow the rules.  Conservative precinct captains and poll watchers are needed with a way to report fraud.

Secondly, we need to get back to voting on Election Day only. No early voting or mail in ballots.

After a tough few weeks, Thought I'd give everyone a bit of good news for 2024.  Looking ahead?

Looking at the 2024 senate elections, I see  as many as 8 democratic seats flippable,  versus 0 for the GOP.  Not having to play more defense will give us a huge strategic adantage.

These states are in play as far as I am concerned, if we can get really good solid vetted candidates.

AZ- Sinema
MT- Tester
NV-Rosen
OH- Brown
PA- Casey (retiring)
VA- Kaine
WV- Manchin
WI- Baldwin
