Election Day results, like clean streets and easily available products in supermarkets, have become artifacts of a recent glorious past. Don’t count on finding eggs and milk at the market or finding out who won the election on Election Day. The 2022 midterms, like the 2020 elections, are a work in progress that will, one day, when the right ballots are found, elect somebody.
Acting Secretary of State Leigh Chapman, the leftist election rigging activist appointed by Gov. Tom Wolf, warned that it will take days to determine who won. At a “virtual press conference”, the virtual election boss, who hasn’t actually been confirmed by the legislature, warned that it would take “several days worth of work” to determine who won what. And who didn’t.
Chapman, a veteran of The Advancement Project, funded by Soros and the Ford Foundation, which worked against voter ID rules to stop voter fraud, and Let America Vote, a leftist group to eliminate election security regulations, urged voters to “feel confident in our election system and in the final results.” Nothing creates confidence in an election system like a radical partisan activist being put in charge of it and then warning that the FBI will target any critics.
If there’s still any doubt, Chapman assured that “this delay does not mean anything nefarious is happening.” Being told that “nothing nefarious is happening” is incredibly reassuring whether it’s hearing it from a strange guy in an alley, a corporate CEO or an election official. People who aren’t doing anything nefarious don’t usually feel the need to assure you of that.
“The process is working as it’s designed to work in Pennsylvania,” Chapman promised.
And I believe her. The question is who designed the process and what outcome do they have in mind?
In October, the Supreme Court threw out a court’s illegal ruling that barring undated ballots violated the Civil Rights Act. A judge decided that when it says, “the elector shall then fill out, date and sign”, the date is actually optional because the word “shall” is not “mandatory”.
Chapman insists that the Supreme Court ruling on undated ballots “provides no justification for counties to exclude ballots based on a minor omission, and we expect that counties will continue to comply with their obligation to count all legal votes.”
So expect a lot of undated ballots to be found and a lot of days to be spent counting them.
“Election workers must be given a reasonable amount of time to do their jobs thoroughly,” Chapman urged. We used to get election results immediately. Now counting votes has to be done “thoroughly” and requires a “reasonable amount of time” which is measured in “at least a few days”. Or however long it will take, a few weeks, a few months or a few years.
And then she complained about “misinformation”.
In Michigan, Secretary of State Jocelyn Benson warned that “unofficial results” might only be available “within 24 hours of the polls closing”.
This should sound familiar. In 2020, Benson, a veteran of the Southern Poverty Law Center and assorted structural initiatives to benefit Democrat voter strategies nationwide, warned that, “We should be prepared for this to be closer to an election week as opposed to an Election Day.”
Benson was able to preemptively send out absentee ballots to millions of people, rewriting election law, and getting away with it. Since then, she has kept on trying to unilaterally write election laws, but without the pandemic, she’s been losing some of those battles. Her attempt to control poll watchers was struck down as illegal because the activist didn’t bother actually going through the process. But the absentee ballots are going out and the results will be delayed.
Like Chapman, Benson had complained that election results would be delayed because she couldn’t pre-process absentee ballots. Except that she now legally can.
Last month, Gov. Whitmer and Republican legislators gave election officials two days to pre-process and prep absentee ballots. After demanding that authority, Benson and election officials claim that it’ll do no good. The majority won’t pre-process and Benson claims that there isn’t enough money to actually carry it out.
With at least 1.8 million absentee ballots coming in, there’ll be plenty of excuses for delays.
In Wayne County, home of Detroit, officials warned that they wouldn’t be able to get their results in because AT&T no longer provides 3G services. AT&T and other companies had spent years warning about a 3G transition. Even most ordinary AT&T and Verizon customers knew that 3G was being left behind. And yet the officials in charge of Ground Zero for ballot counting in Michigan were somehow unaware and had no plans for moving past an outdated technology.
Next up, the dog ate all the ballots.
But if you’re at all worried that anything funny might be going on, Benson’s Department of State has a video urging voters not to “believe the lie that dead people vote.” The video, ominously warns that there are people out there who “want you to think elections aren’t fair”. It assures skeptics that the only reason dead people appear to vote is because they “cast an absentee ballot” and coincidentally “then died right before Election Day”. Nothing nefarious is going on.
Election officials, no matter how partisan or self-interested they may be, are to be innately trusted.
Anything else is an “attack on democracy”.
Then again, the Philly Inquirer just reported that “Philadelphia’s top elections official and her office knowingly misled voters multiple times this month” The Democrat paper warns that this “could further erode trust as growing elements of the Republican Party are seeking to undermine election results — especially by attacking Philadelphia.”
Top election officials lie and Republicans pounce is the narrative.
The midterm election rigging is underway. It’s not glamorous work. Mostly it involves bureaucratic rules, election battles and building an infrastructure in which election security is a joke and there are plenty of opportunities to poison the well.
When the real election begins only after the polls close then democracy really does die in darkness.
Brazenness is its strength.
The Soviet Union collapsed because of the naked disparity between the elites that drove automobiles, weekended in their dachas and dined upon comestibles vended through exclusive, nonpublic commissaries.
On their upside, the “public” could expect to max out with aspiring to stainless steel teeth and escaping scurvy.
Look to your political Left and see if you spot a domestic, contemporary diorama displaying similarity.
There shall be another STOLEN ELECTION… the ONLY NEW THING TO KNOW IS HOW DID THEY DO IT THIS TIME ???
The mules running around stuffing drop boxes will leave their cell phones at home.
Leftist frauds learned from “2000 Mules”; Mitch McConnell learned nothing from it.
Always a day late, under that corrupt Turtle.
The same ways as in 2020, apparently.
Huh?
” … because of the naked disparity between the elites….” and whom?
Unless you identify the other group, the statement is incomplete, and makes no sense.
Solzhenitsyn. Former Red Army artillery officer became a zek upon criticising Stalin in a private letter. He was sent to the camps. His life’s work was as historian to the millions who suffered under the twentieth century’s great social experiment.
You owe it to yourself to peruse his writings, his biography and bona fides.
A reasonable contemporary vernacular would seem the non elite were “workers”, as in the worker’s paradise.
iww.org
Founded by Big Bill Haywood, who defected to the said worker’s paradise, and expired in Moscow in 1928.
The judge saying “shall” is not a required instruction to voters makes me wonder about appearing in the court of that judge. If I called the judge “Mr. Judge” would I be told, “You shall address me as Your Honor” and then be held in contempt for failing to do so?
It is a fundamental rule of statutory interpretation that the use of the word “shall” is a mandatory command. Otherwise, the word “may” would have been used. Either the judge never went to law school or is a partisan politician in robes. There are no other possibilities for that decision.
Even the left leaning Google provides synonyms for SHALL as, “SHOULD, WILL and MUST”. Doesn’t seem to be much room for that judge’s ruling.
Word weasels have claimed the word “shall” isn’t necessarily an imperative for awhile now. It’s just another sleazy way to subvert laws, and it’s false. Dirtbagocrats and other lefties are shameless in their subversive sabotage of laws, traditions and culture. Our current dictionaries help their cause too, because ALL of them have words with incorrect spellings, pronunciations and definitions jammed into them.
“Shall” is always an imperative, no matter what crooked bureaucrats and fake dictionaries compiled by descriptivists and “woke” activists claim. That means it’s “mandatory. It’s absurd to pretend otherwise but Dirtbagocrats will use the absurd or any other tactic to get what they want, won’t they? They have no scruples when it comes to cheating for power.
Back in the old days I’d walk to the polls in two foot snow drifts uphill both ways to vote in person. Oh how I long for those days.
Me too, and I didn’t even have shoes.
Like a full court press in basketball, or a blitz in football, they are coming from every direction, hoping some will get through.
Yes, and knowing many will get through. You’re right, they’ll use any means known and are always devising new angles, like the drop boxes and universal mail in ballots so prevalent in 2020.
It’s guaranteed that the RINOs and MAGA Republicans would take the House and Senate easily in a halfway fair election but boy, do I worry about Dirtbagocrat cheating.
“nothing nefarious is happening”
That’s the kind of thing street criminals say to you on a dark night, when they catch you outside, and try to convince you to come with them to a dark alley where they are in control.
Where’s Batman when you need him?
“shall”
That’s a good example of the dangers in the ambiguity of the English language.
Even the left leaning Google provides synonyms for SHALL as, “SHOULD, WILL and MUST”. Doesn’t seem to be much room there
Yeah, I looked it up, the original definition was pretty strict, but has loosened up a bit over the centuries.
I think it’s more like decades.
“Will” and “must” are correct, “should” isn’t.
“Shall” is an imperative but because dictionaries now use false and bastardized definitions which match the incorrect usage of words by the public, even if it’s only a small portions of the public, the definitions of many common words such as “infer,” “Palestine,” “reticent” and even “man” and “woman” have been subverted by left-wing lexicographers (descriptivists, actually) to promote their collective opinions and agendas. Leftists subvert everything they’re a part of and make it sociopolitical and dictionaries are no different. The change of dictionaries from guides for the correct usage of words started decades ago and it’s become so bad that any current dictionary is worse than worthless and is a propaganda tool for the left.
I buy dictionary volumes from the late 1960s. They’re accurate, copious and usually come in three volumes with extra features such as grammar guides, differences between American and Commonwealth English, and much more.
You might enjoy a dictionary aggregator like Onelook.com. It even has Webster’s 1828 dictionary, which is fascinating to compare to modern editions.
Thanks! I just bookmarked it and will explore it later but I entered a few words in a few sources for a quick look. I entered “stygian” because it’s a bit obscure but not so obscure that nobody knows what it means and it’s not archaic. Many sources didn’t have it (crappy dictionaries) but I was sorry that “Worthless Word For The Day” didn’t, because I like that word. I’ll check later what else that source considers worthless. “Webster’s 1828” had it but it was the “hellish” definition, which is actually secondary to the “gloomy” definition. On “the Phrontistery – A Dictionary Of Obscure Words,” all the definitions are listed under the first letter on a single page you have to scroll down and I found “stygian” under “S.”
Boy, does this dictionary make me feel like an illiterate ignoramus. Here’s a small section under “S.” I only knew a few of them before I saw this!
“scuttlebutt cask of drinking water aboard a ship; rumour, idle gossip
scuttles portholes on a ship
scyphiform shaped like a cup
scytodepsic of, like or pertaining to tanning leather
se twenty-five-stringed Chinese zither

sectiuncle small section

secund on one side only

I entered “infer” and was pleased to find some of the current dictionaries don’t list “imply” as one of the definitions. The two words are antonyms. Sadly, only the 1828 and 1919 Webster’s dictionaries were correct. The different current ones listed “imply” as a synonym.
Thanks again. I’m going to have a good time with that website. 🙂
Get ready for the “most secure election in American history” part 2.
I saw a couple of hosts on Fox News say the Dems have only two things to run on, abortion and election integrity. HUH???
Election integrity. That’s hilarious.
The usual suspects are already saying that, LOL!
I hope no one is so gullible that they believe any of the left’s preemptive lying. Biden got his ass kicked by Trump in the polls and in attendance to his rallies in 2020. Biden hid in his basement. But Biden ended up becoming the illegal, traitor president because the left invested big money and effort into every form of election rigging and fraud imaginable. And they did so with impunity. They knew the FBI had been thoroughly corrupted from at least the point Comey was appointed as its director.
Wray is thoroughly corrupt and Merrick is a reincarnation from Bolshevik Russia. Cheating is now official procedure in the USA. That being said, don’t stay home. Vote. No .one knows when God’s hand will help those who honor His laws and act on faith and with courage.
“Biden got his ass kicked by Trump in the polls”
Totally false. Trump was the one who got his ass kicked in the polls. Several days before the election he was behind Biden by as much as ten points in some polls and almost as much in many others.
Stop believing lies or stop spreading them.
I’d wager that you were stupid enough to believe that ridiculous poll that had Hillary up by 90% in 2016.
No crowds flocked to Biden. In fact there was such a void, that leftist pricks photo-shopped a giant gathering of “Latinos for Trump” and pawned it off as a crowd for Biden.
The lame trick didn’t work except with liberal lightweights.
Yeah, drive-by rallies where nobody drove by or attended. I would hear the SAME TWO car horns honk periodically from the same locations. Ridiculous. And to believe some people actually voted for that shit. Not many but more retards such as John R, Butthola than America should be stuck with.
“Totally false”…hey, that is the perfect screen name for you
Show us these polls you made up. Citing imaginary polls may work in your deluded, diminutive mind. It may make you feel better, but it won’t work here. Trump was crushing Biden in every possible way, with the exception of the cretin, idiot, imbecile, and moron demographics.
The polls were ridiculous lies, you hopeless trolltard.
I voted by mail in early October because I live in CA, which allows voting for close to a month and counting as long as it takes for the Dirtbagocrats to have more ballots than the Republicans. If I were to go vote on election day, they’d have had a month to subvert my ballot. It’s better here to add my ballot to the early deluge mailed in and hope it makes it through.
That’s how badly the D-Bags have subverted the voting process. Guys like me have to live with it and there’s not a damned thing I can do except try to subvert the subversive voting process. It boils my blood. I’ve been seething since November 11th, 2020, and the last two years have been the worst for our country in my entire lifetime. Worse than all the 56 which came before.
Worse than all the 56 previous years PUT TOGETHER, I meant to write.
Hey! Glad to see you back on here! Man, things have gotten worse here in this country.
In PA, even more partisan than the Wolf administration is the State Supreme court. 4 of the judges on the court are hard core partisan hacks that allowed PA to be stolen for Biden and THEY set the congressional boundaries giving Democrats 4 additional congressional seats. The State constitution says the legislature is suppose to set the boundaries, but these 4 always say the constitution is what makes Democrats more powerful.
I do not think the Supreme Court will let this go so quietly this time. If the local GOP have their side ready, they can get a fair amount of these things fixed, or illegal ballots nixed from the count.
From your lips to God’s ears.
The election is only seven days away and voting has been going on for nearly a month in many places.
“This delay does not mean anything nefarious is happening.” = “Be quiet and everything will be all right” (9/11 hijacker)
The Democrats are desperate and will do anything to avoid the consequences of the election because a loss means a loss of power
Not just power, some may face fraud or criminal charges. Who Knows what else?
“Election Day” has evolved into “Election Season” that is a completely obscure time frame from way way before to way way after. The rules are changed on the fly with zero legislative input. Computerized vote machines experience “glitches” and inexplicable shut downs. In the end it is declared the leftist win….again….. and to question the outcome is deemed treason by the winner’s. The American public by large are ship of fools to tolerate what is happening.
It cannot be underscored enough to anyone age 35 or younger: BEFORE the “Age of the Internet,” and electronic voting (i.e. last 15 years), ALL U.S. elections during my lifetime (I’m 50) were complete and tabulated THE NIGHT OF THE ELECTION, with very few exceptions. This, with paper ballots, scan-tron ballots, etc.
Anyone claiming that it now takes LONGER to tabulate ballots than it did when we counted votes by hand and with scan-trons is LYING TO YOU. It’s a farce on its face.
Use of “technology,” as such, is supposed to improve things. More accurate. Faster. Etc. The fact that it doesn’t for vote tabulation, is the prima facie evidence that voter fraud at scale is a real thing. It’s that, or, it’s true that #2 pencils and scan-trons were more advanced “technology” than Dominion machines. Third-world bananna stuff right here.
I’m a good bit older than you, I first voted with pen and paper ballot, but I agree the advancement in tech. voting just opened the door for some to take advantage of potential fraud. Of course there were over 100 million less people then.
This article is so full of shit. Republicans are all over this election so no impropriety will go un remarked. And many non-impropriety will be called out because the watchers are hyper-polarized.
There was no election fraud in 2020 (even Trump has admitted that). This whole exercise is driven by the childish man’s giant ego. Talk about a waste of time and money!
No valid evidence of fraud will be turned up this time around either. Maybe its because there is no fraud. Or maybe its because the Democratic fraudsters are too smart for you. Undermining election integrity has been around for decades—the ‘Commies’ started doing it during the cold war. You are the latest incarnation and your fact-free innuendo serves no good for our country.
You’re the one who is full of shit. First of all, show me the quote where Trump “admitted” the 2020 election wasn’t rigged.
Everyone with an IQ above 25 knew the 2020 election was rigged. I guess the IQ This may be why you think you can claim it wasn’t, and that Trump admitted it. Two lies and each is profoundly stupid.
“Heaps” is a fitting name for you. I’ll bet the middle initial is “shit” too..
If you’re going to regurgitate a lie, make it a BIG and reverse reality one, eh, little Adolph? You fascist fuck.
How contemptible are you to advocate for the current disastrous state of America caused by cheating Dirtbagocrats? The entire country and everybody in it have had our way of life severely diminished, with the exception of scum sucking politicians and the moneyed interests they collude with.
You’re beneath contempt.
One thing is for certain. If JoJo is in the White House due to fraud, no Democrats care as the goal was to get rid of President Trump by any means necessary.
Their moral and intellectual leader Jane Fonda said it best: “Covid is God’s gift to the left”. Is there a reason you think it was OK to allow judges and others that were NOT State legislators to change State election laws?
“ There was no election fraud in 2020”
Yes there was. In the Arizona audit, more than 50,000 invalid Biden votes were found, 5X the amount that Biden “won” by.
Over 230,000 invalid Biden votes were found in Michigan, 70,000 more than what Biden “won” by.
Wisconsin declared the 2020 election unconstitutional and over 40,000 invalid Biden votes were found there.
Try harder, Tankie.
The only way anything nefarious will come to light is if Republicans get in on the act.
They’ll be accused of it anyway. The Dirtbagocrat hypocrites always yell “election fraud!” when they lose.
With all sorts of surveillance equipment available to private detectives, potential information could be obtained to demonstrate electoral fraud.
And promptly dismissed by activist courts and their criminal judges, unfortunately.
The democrats have claimed the elections have been rigged every time a republican president has been elected starting with Bush in 2000. In every case, our republican lead government never stifled free speech for those claiming election fraud. In every case, the republicans have offered common sense voting reform to our elections, such as voter ID, same day results, and election transparency. In every case the Democrats refused, because they know the only way that poor policies and candidates can win is by election/voter fraud. Politics is not a gentlemen’s sport; it is a blood sport that needs to be fought vigorously and sometimes dirty.
The results of the 2000 election radicalized the left immensely. They still haven’t gotten over it.
Thanks Daniel
“the Ford Foundation, which worked against voter ID rules to stop voter fraud “
Great phrase, an oxymoron for the left to live by. What’s next?
Why on earth would it take “days” to know who won? (A rhetorical question). Here in Canada, they close the polls at 6PM local time across Canada, local scrutineers count the ballots and phone in the results at headquarters. No ballots are accepted after 6PM. The official voting results are published within a day or two.
I believe Italy got it done the same day.
Some states are taking measures to secure voter integrity. I recently moved to Florida, and I haven’t gotten a driver’s license from that state yet, so I had to fill out an absentee ballot from my previous state and fill it in. Florida does try to take measures to oppose fraud, but it’s hard to counter fraud when voting machines are in every state of the Union and the algorithms are set.
Don’t blame the scumbag scumorats. Scumbags do what comes naturally to scumbags — lie, cheat and steal.
Blame the ones directly responsible for electing the maggots who can create protocols for cheating — the stupid electorate.
You get what you elect, idiots.
Will t hose no account Polecats cheat again? Dont put it past those Sidewinder to do it they have the M.S. Media Owlhoots to cover for them
Perhaps America should invite some foreign country to come over and oversee this next Election in the USA as the USA has certainly payed the high horse game when it went to many other nations to oversee their Elections as Uncle Sam didnt want the corruption to enter a ”free election” in whatever nation it was.
So perhaps some African or South American politicians can come over the USA next week and make sure the election is free and fair as is done in their country.
That should sort it all out, dont ya think?.
We all know that the power brokers, movers, and shakers of the New World Order, the elites, billionaires, and politicians who support socialism, are not going to let go of their power. They will do anything to derail American society and a Constitutional Republic, as they are doing in other countries. Cheat, lie, steal, change times and laws, is their mantra. Everyone needs to go vote in huge volume for the right kind of government and leaders who represent YOU, not global bureaucracy.
If power is obtained by unpunished cheating, what will prevent its reoccurrence?
If it takes more than a day to count the vote, your election system is below the standard of third-world countries – which consistently demonstrate, worldwide, the ability to count votes in one day.
I read one about Voting Machines that switched the Republican vote over to the Democrat and how a Democrat was caught with Voting Machine in their car
