Actions To Take Now To Protect Our Elections

 




Here are 3 actions that everyone can take now to protect the integrity of our elections.



1.  Be a poll watcher or election judge

Contact your county's party and volunteer to be a poll watcher or an election judge.  In Texas both positions require training, and you must be appointed to the position.  Your local party can get you started.  If you don't know how to find your county Republican party, you can sign up through the state party website at https://texasgop.org/electionworkers/.

2.  Stay informed by connecting with credible sources of information

Besides the political parties, there are organizations that can help you stay informed on election integrity issues and ways to make an impact.  True The Vote is a reputable organization dedicated to the cause.  Their website is https://www.truethevote.org/.  The Heritage Foundation has also been active on the issue, and their website is https://www.heritage.org/election-integrity.

3.  Engage your legislators on election laws 

State legislatures write the laws governing elections in the state.  You can find out how your state rates on election integrity initiatives.  Heritage has developed a scorecard for states which can be viewed here:  https://www.heritage.org/electionscorecard/.  Let your representatives know that you care about making it easy to vote but hard to cheat.  

Also, tell your U.S. Congressional Representative and Senators that you oppose Democrat efforts to take over elections at the federal level in order to implement their practices that leave elections vulnerable to fraud and corruption.

Ballot Harvesting Rarely Allowed





Ballot Harvesting is Rarely Legal Contrary to Left-Leaning Fact Checkers

The recently released movie "2000 Mules" lays out evidence of illegal ballot trafficking in the November 2020 election.  Ballot trafficking, much like drug trafficking, is the illegal purchase and movement of mail-in ballots.  Under the COVID crisis, counties across the U. S. expanded mail-in voting and implemented special drop boxes to deposit the ballots.  In many cases the effort was funded by "Zuck Bucks", which were grants from Marc Zuckerberg's foundations totally over $400 million given primarily to highly populated, Democrat counties.  Normally mail-in ballots are allowed only for elderly and disabled voters, and the ballots must be returned either by the voter personally, the U.S. Postal Service, or a certified carrier.  Many Americans were concerned about the massive expansion of mail-in ballots due to the loose security of them, the significant increase as a percentage of votes, and the mass mailings to voter lists which contained many ineligible voters.  These actions were taken contrary to state election laws under COVID emergency claims.  There was clearly reason for concern.

 Yet, even with geo-tracking and video evidence from True The Vote, fact checkers continue to staunchly claim that there was no widespread fraud.  One claim of the fact checkers' defense is that clear evidence of hundreds of individuals each dropping multiple ballots at dozens of different ballot drop boxes can be explained as legal ballot collection.  The law, however, in the states in question and in most states, is very restrictive about who may deliver ballots and under what conditions.  It is not plausible that hundreds of individuals dropping several ballots at dozens of drop boxes could occur within the legal restrictions.

The states most in question are Arizona, Georgia, and Pennsylvania.  Those states had Biden victories in a margin that could have been produced by illegally cast ballots given the apparent evidence found by True The Vote.  In Arizona a mail-in ballot may only be returned by a family member, a caregiver, or someone in the household.  In Georgia disabled people may have a family or household member deliver their ballot.  In Pennsylvania a disabled or ill voter may designate a person in writing and filed with the court to deliver their ballot.  In all three states the people allowed to deliver a ballot is strictly limited.  It is impossible to believe that these ballot "mules" were legal carriers given that they went to at least twenty boxes and can be seen on video with many ballots per box.   Further investigation requires unmasking the identity of the cell phone owners to confirm the apparent illegal operation, but it defies reason to believe that these carriers were legitimate.
