Media Ignores Questions Surrounding California Vote Counting as Familiar Patterns Reappear

By: Chris Bray | Commentary, The Federalist Legacy media are insisting that there’s no evidence of fraud or cheating in California’s recent primary elections. It’s obviously not true. Legacy media don’t describe. They exist to prevent description, corralling and deflecting. In the famous description from Iowahawk, “Journalism is about covering important stories. With a pillow, until they stop moving.” Four states held primary elections on June 9, and on the morning of June 10, they were either ahead in their count or about as far along in their count of ballots as California, which held its primaries on June 2. These screenshots from live election results at the NBC News website are both from Wednesday morning at 9:30 PT: NBC NewsImage CreditScreenshot NBC ...

Judge Rejects Democrat Bid To Block Trump Voting Security Measures

By John Solomon | Just the News Judge ruled Democrats failed to show they have standing at present to challenge the order or have suffered any harm. A federal judge on Thursday cleared the way for President Donald Trump to implement his executive order tightening mail-in voting, slapping down Democrats’ arguments for now that federal efforts to police voter rolls with citizenship checks were illegal. U.S. District Judge Carl Nichols, a Trump appointed jurist, ruled that Democrats failed to show they have standing at present to challenge the order or have suffered any harm that would warrant a preliminary injunction. "Given that the Executive Order does not command Plaintiffs to do anything, and that no agency has yet acted pursuant to the Order in a way that c...

Federal Crackdown Expands as Decades-Long Voter Fraud Scheme Surfaces

By John Solomon | Just the News FBI Director Kash Patel says prior administrations looked the other way on election cheating but "those days are over." Despite evidence to the contrary, liberal voting activists have spent years minimizing cheating concerns and portraying those who want to investigate such problems as “election deniers.”  But the FBI and the departments of Justice and Homeland Security are now systematically exposing electoral fraud – from non-citizen voting to ballot-box-stuffing schemes that are turning the table in epic fashion. The latest strike came Monday when a longtime voting activist in California reached a deal with federal prosecutors to admit to illegally paying homeless people to sign election petitions and paying people to re...

Federal order puts Colorado’s mail ballot system on a collision course

By Jen Schumann | Rocky Mountain Voice The way Colorado runs elections hasn’t changed—but a new federal order could force it to. The order would have federal agencies assemble a nationwide list of verified U.S. citizens and share it with state election officials. States could then choose to send their own voter lists to the U.S. Postal Service about 60 days before an election. If they do, ballots would be limited to the names on those lists. In Colorado, that framework could fundamentally change how elections work. Colorado’s system leaves very little room to miss your chance. Ballots go out to every active voter—even those who register just days before Election Day. And for anyone who doesn’t, same-day registration still allows them to walk in and vote right up until po...

Trump Moves To Require Verified Voter Lists For Mail In Ballots

By Mabinty Quarshie | Washington Examiner President Donald Trump signed an executive order on Tuesday directing the Department of Homeland Security to compile lists of eligible voters in every state and ordering the U.S. Postal Service to craft rules limiting the delivery and return of mail-in ballots to individuals on those lists. “I think this will help a lot with elections,” Trump told reporters on Tuesday while speaking in the Oval Office. “We’d like to have voter ID. We’d like to have proof of citizenship.” The executive order, expected to face legal challenges from Democrats, effectively creates a federal voter verification system. It orders DHS to partner with the Social Security Administration to compile a list of verified citizens elig...

Poll Shows 83% of Voters Support Election Day Ballot Deadlines

By: Maisey Jefferson | The Federalist While the Supreme Court on Monday expressed skepticism about states accepting mail-in ballots that arrive after Election Day, an overwhelming majority of voters have already decided against the practice, according to a recent poll conducted just days before the high court heard oral arguments in Watson v. RNC. As The Federalist’s Shawn Fleetwood reported, Watson “deals with a challenge to a Mississippi law authorizing absentee ballots to be accepted up to five days after Election Day so long as they are postmarked before or on the day of the contest.” A survey of 1,600 likely voters conducted on behalf of the Honest Elections Project earlier this month found that 93 percent of Republicans, 83...

Supreme Court Weighs Election Day Deadline For Mail In Ballots

By Andrew Rice | Just the News (The Center Square) - The U.S. Supreme Court on Monday will hear arguments in a consequential case to determine at what point states can accept and count mail-in ballots. The case, Watson v. RNC, challenges a Mississippi law that allows mail-in ballots to be received up to five days after Election Day, as long as the ballot is postmarked by Election Day. Fourteen states and the District of Columbia also allow mail-in ballots to be received after Election Day. Jason Snead, executive director of the Honest Elections Project, said the case would give an opportunity for mail-in ballot laws to be uniform across the country. “Federal law clearly states that ballots must be received by Election Day,” Snead told The Center Square. “Despite...

Justices To Decide If States Can Count Ballots After Election Day

By Shawn Fleetwood | The Federalist Does Election Day actually mean Election Day? That’s the key issue the U.S. Supreme Court is going to consider when it holds oral arguments in a pivotal elections case next week. Known as Watson v. RNC, the legal dispute centers around a challenge to a Mississippi law allowing election officials to accept mail-in ballots up to five business days after Election Day so long as they are postmarked on or before the day of the contest. The issue of accepting late-arriving ballots has become a prominent issue in elections in recent years, with more than a dozen states permitting such a practice. In the case before SCOTUS, the justices will decide whether these state statutes violate existing f...

Legal Battle Erupts Over NCAR Shutdown And Federal Authority

By Óscar Contreras | Denver7 Consortium alleges NCAR dismantling is "collateral damage" for Colorado’s refusal to bow down to the Trump administration and its demands to end mail-in voting and release Tina Peters from prison. DENVER — A consortium of more than 100 colleges and universities filed a lawsuit Monday against their federal partners, alleging the dismantling of Boulder’s National Center for Atmospheric Research by the Trump administration is illegal and part of a “campaign of retaliation” against the state of Colorado. The lawsuit, filed in U.S. District Court of Colorado by the University Corporation for Atmospheric Research against the National Science Foundation and other federal agencies and its leaders, alleges the dismantling of NCAR is motivated by t...

SAVE America Act Fight Heads To Senate Floor In High Stakes Messaging Battle

By: David Sivak | Washington Examiner Senate Republicans are planning a marathon debate on President Donald Trump’s marquee elections bill, a move designed to ease tensions with the MAGA Right after Senate Majority Leader John Thune (R-SD) ruled out a talking filibuster. Thune’s staff has been gaming out days of floor debate that are likely to begin next Monday or Tuesday, according to two sources familiar with the discussions. Also involved are the White House legislative affairs office and Sen. Mike Lee (R-UT), the lead co-sponsor of the legislation, dubbed the SAVE America Act. The contours of that process are still coming together, with Thune first announcing the strategy to his conference on Tuesday, but the overall goal is to replicate a ...
