Now that we're 20 days out from the
“Red Wave” that wasn't, I've had time to contemplate on
the sad fact that we lost across the midterm board because Republican
party leaders let us all down. RINOs for the most part, Mitch
McConnell and crew were too busy and too cheap to help both
Republican and conservative candidates running in what should
have been easily won House and Senate races.
Republicans had the
platform, Republicans had the momentum, but Joe Biden's falsely
spewed “our democracy is at stake” nonsense drew Democrat
voters to the polls in higher numbers than it did Republican voters.
And this was no matter that their party did not address the true
issues concerning voters, as in record high inflation, rising gas
prices, the increase in crime, and the invasion at our southern
border...to name but a few. Resonating with Republicans alone, I do not want to hear any Democrat whining about prices at
the pump and/or at the grocery store for “Let them eat
cake”...and choke on it I might add.
This midterm election, like the
election of 2020, was rife with fraud...fraud we knew was coming yet
did nothing about even with Republican leaders knowing well that the
Democrats would play dirty across the board. And with, as expected,
almost all contested elections flipping to the Democrats even when
Republicans were way ahead at first tally count, the same excuses
were given now as they were before...voter irregularities;
malfunctioning machines; mail-in ballots suddenly appearing that
needed to be counted; tabulation errors or missteps; and the ever
popular the Democrats forgetting to tabulate both the
“dead”
and the
“illegal” vote in what should have been a timely
manner.
Yet our Republican leaders stood by not
uttering even a peep when we lost the Senate seat in Arizona after
Blake Masters suddenly saw his original lead not so slowly slipping
away after his opponent, Mark Kelly, in “extended counting”
pulled ahead. And the same goes for Arizona's governors race where
Katie Hobbs, Arizona's current Secretary of State whose job
description includes being Arizona's chief elections
officer/overseer...pulled ahead of Republican Kari Lake, again only
when counting days were extended. Nice huh...unethical to say the
least as Hobbs refused to recuse herself...conflict of interest and
all...and yet Republican voices, for the most part, were nowhere then
and are nowhere now to be found.
And this very same scenario was seen in many
different House, Senate, and governors races...extend the tally time
allowing the race for said seat to not so miraculously turn blue
even when a Republican was previously ahead. Nevada's Senate seat is another example of late counted and/or suddenly appearing mail-in
ballots allowing for the Senate to remain in Democrat control. Also, isn't it odd that the uber liberal 'Associated Press' called the Nevada
Senate race for Democrat Sen. Catherine Cortez Masto after a batch of
votes from the Las Vegas area suddenly gave her a 5,000 vote lead
that they alone determined she would not relinquish even if
Republican candidate Adam Laxalt made gains in rural Nevada counties that were yet
still counting votes. Simply, Laxalt's 19,000 vote lead on
election night fell to but 900 votes because of extended
counting time, questionable for sure.
So now it seems the liberal media is
allowed to officially call an election even before all votes are
counted, it's no wonder that half this country has zero confidence in
our election process, and rightly so. And they did this no matter
that the December 6th Georgia runoff election between Republican
Herschel Walker and Democrat incumbent Sen. Raphael Warnock still has
to take place. But in the scope of things that race really doesn't
matter for all a Walker win would do is allow for a 50-50 Senate
split with lamebrain Kamala Harris again being the deciding vote.
However, with some Democrats claiming that a
Warnock win would actually allow Joe Biden's agenda to become
“Manchin
proof”...so to speak...giving them 51 votes to Republicans then
49 votes...thereby not needing Harris' tie-breaking vote...they best
not count on it for at times Joe Manchin has indeed done the right thing and
voted with the Republicans against the Biden agenda. But also know that while we
Republicans have gotten our hopes up in regards to
Joe Manchin switching over to the red side of the aisle, when push came to shove we were let down when more times than not he caved to
the Democrat elite. And yet with Manchin's now being hopping mad
at Biden's remarks about completely shutting down America's coal
industry...his state of West Virginia's main industry...I can only
hope he goes
“Tulsi Gabbard” on the Democrats (even if he
were to become an Independent) which would not only negate a Warnock
win, but send the Senate majority over to our side on many key votes.
A girl can wish now can't
she...sigh...especially with it now being obvious that we Republicans need new leaders, new ideas, and new modes of messaging to take place.
So with it having taking a week to
announce that the Republicans had officially gained control of the
House... something we suspected would happen on election night...albeit now
by a very small margin...one has to wonder about not just the current
lack of election integrity, but how do we restore honor to the
election process itself. And the answer is quite simple, as in we
follow the law as set down in the Constitution.
First let's discuss who can and cannot
vote. According to the First Amendment of the U.S. Constitution,
voting is a right afforded to “citizens of the United States,”
note the word “citizens” with the Fifteenth Amendment
specifically stating, “the right of citizens of the United
States to vote.” Again notice the all-important word “citizens”
for nowhere in the Constitution does it say that
non-citizens...as in illegals or even permanent residents...can vote.
In fact there are four amendments to
the Constitution that while expanding the right vote, as in the 15th,
19th, 24th, and 26th Amendments, they all all still include the word
“citizen.”
And yet we know illegals are indeed voting, most especially in blue
states...an important constitutional breech Republican leaders have
yet to address or even seem to want to address.
And
while the Constitution gives the states under Article I, Section 4,
Clause 1, the right to chose the “Times,
Places, and Manner of holding Elections for Senators
and Representatives, shall be prescribed in each State by the
Legislature thereof...” it says not a word about extending the
time frame by which votes are cast, harvested and/or counted. In fact,
in regards to federal elections...which includes the federal
midterms...the Constitution states there is to be a designated
“Election Day” ...as in "the Tuesday next after the first Monday in November"...thus setting a real deadline for voting.
Simply, there is no mention in the Constitution to an “Election
Week” or an “Election Month,” as the U.S. Constitution clearly states that votes are to be cast within a single day, and that said votes are to be counted by the end of a given deadline period
with no mention of extensions for suddenly turning up late ballots.
And while mail-in ballots per se are not addressed, the
constitutional time frame regarding casting one's vote on a single
day should apply here as well for no form of voting is more rife with
tampering and fraud than is mail-in ballots.
But we all know that in recent
elections the Constitution's words have not applied let alone been
enforced as our elections have become a free for all cheat fest.
Folks are indeed voting illegally and in some cases multiple times,
and more so than not it's being done in blue states while election
officials in those states look away what with the Democrats quest for
power being allowed to override the rule of law that is the
Constitution. So I say back to the Constitution we go, and with that in-person voting is done on Election Day alone...no early voting
allowed...and that mail-in ballots are only for the infirm, the
housebound, the military, and young
“citizens” away at out
of state colleges and universities.
Simply, if you cannot give up one day
to do your civic duty maybe you shouldn't be voting at all. And the
whining that “I'll miss work” or whatever no longer holds
true as most businesses do give time off to vote. And maybe here
alone is one place where a constitutional amendment is needed stating
that on the day designated as “Election Day” that all
polls must remain open until everyone in line is given their chance
to vote. This sure would cut down on the fraud committed courtesy of
both mail-in and early votes cast.
Also, in today's age of
computers there is absolutely no reason why votes cannot be tallied
within a single 24-hour time frame. Voting in person on
“Election
Day” tends to leave little chance of fraud being committed, especially
if the rule of law would dictate that everyone voting must
present proof, via ID, that they're a
“citizen” and of age
to vote. You do need proof to open a bank account, or even to secure a
credit card or a drivers license, so why is ID deemed racist or voter
suppression when asking for ID to vote. Simply, it's not except for
those determined to commit fraud by whatever means possible and for
those condoning and even encouraging such fraud to be committed in
order for Democrats to stay in power.
Simple solutions to what has now
allowed our beloved America to become but a laughing stock world
over, for the “Home of the
Free, and the Land of the Brave,” now sees the sanctity
of the vote...the very thing our brave men and women in uniform gave
their lives to protect...being but fodder for late night comedians
and ubber leftist politicians now joyously heralding the fall of our
American “republic”...may she sadly “Rest in Peace.” Case closed.
