Why did China and its proxies acquire as many as 220 million Americans’ voter registration records?

 Serious stuff! Cause for concern!

"... including non-publicly available data flagged by the Intelligence Community as far back as 2022. The declassified documents show that adversaries holding this data could alter voter rolls to prevent individuals or entire groups from casting ballots, trigger Election Day chaos, or force the mass use of provisional ballots.

Arizona Among Six States Facing RNC Lawsuits Over Never-Resident Voting

Unfortunately, these lawsuits appear to be too narrowly focused, e.g. "through a parent’s former or current residency"

What about e.g. the many snowbirds in Arizona?

Remember/reminder: Trump lost in Arizona 2020 by only about 10,457 votes!

"The Republican National Committee (RNC) is pursuing lawsuits in Arizona and five other states challenging laws that allow some United States citizens who have never lived in those states to register and vote through a parent’s former or current residency.

The RNC has active cases in Arizona, Nevada, Colorado, New Jersey, Virginia, and Nebraska, according to a report from the Daily Signal. The legal campaign follows a June ruling in North Carolina that invalidated a similar provision under that state’s constitution.

“If you’ve never lived in a state, you shouldn’t be voting in its elections,” RNC Chairman Joe Gruters told the outlet. ..."

Software vendor disputes NJ governor's ‘glitch’ claim, says state approves foreigners on voter roll

Good news! This software glitch excuse sounded phony from the beginning!

Kudos to this software company to come out and risking their business with the government of NJ!

"Just hours after New Jersey Democratic Gov. Mikie Sherril blamed a software glitch for thousands of non-citizens being registered to vote, the software company involved issued a statement disputing the claim.

IDEMIA, the software vendor for the New Jersey Motor Vehicle Commission, issued a statement saying it was the responsibility of the state government, which is completely controlled by Democrats, to verify eligibility to vote.

“IDEMIA works with the New Jersey Motor Vehicle Commission, and has for more than 40 years, to support the process through which eligible individuals may indicate their interest in registering to vote when applying for or renewing a driver’s license or state-issued identification card. IDEMIA’s role is to transmit information through the motor vehicle system,” IDEMIA said in a statement to Just the News. ..."

RNC Opens New Front in Election Integrity Battle Over ‘Never Residents’ Voting in 6 US States

Enforcing election integrity in the US is complex and comprehensive task! Too much trust and laxity make this effort even more difficult.

Remember trust but verify (an adage repeated often by President Reagan)!

The loopholes are many and as big as a barn door!

RNC = Republican National Committee

"After a victory in the battleground state of North Carolina, the Republican National Committee has pending litigation against six other states to stop U.S. citizens who never lived in those states from voting in their elections.

The RNC has sued battleground states Arizona and Nevada; blue states such as Colorado, New Jersey, and Virginia; and the red state of Nebraska over laws allowing non-residents to vote. These cases are narrowly focused on closing state loopholes that allow people who never lived in a state to vote by absentee ballot. ..."

Homeland Security found over 250,000 illegal aliens registered to vote in just four states plus 400,000 deceased registrants

Good news!

Voter registration is made far to easy in many states, I suspect!

Sometimes only a difference of a few 10,000 votes by state determine the outcome of an election. 

"... The agency reviewed voter registrations as part of a Trump administration priority to address concerns about illegal voting in the U.S. using the SAVE system, a controversial citizenship database that includes Social Security numbers. The administration is offering the centralized records to states to identify non-citizens on voter rolls across the country. 

The four states opted not to utilize the SAVE system, prompting the agency to conduct a separate review using publicly available voter records. ...

In addition, the agency pointed out that several states have “successfully utilized” the federal records to review and clean their voter rolls. To date, those reviews have identified “400,000 deceased registrants” and “over 28,000 non-citizens illegally registered to vote.” ...

According to the outlet, DHS estimated as many as 190,832 non-citizens registered in California, 35,152 in New Jersey, 15,903 in Nevada and 14,576 in Pennsylvania. ..."

Gerrymandering is still very much alive ahead of the November 2026 elections

Some things barely change over time and both political parties resort to it! 

However, is one of the two parties worse than the other one when it comes to Gerrymandering? My hunch is that the Dimocratic Party is worse than the GOP!

"... The term, originally written as “Gerry-mander,” first was used on March 26, 1812, in the Boston Gazette — a reaction to the redrawing of Massachusetts state senate election districts under Governor Elbridge Gerry.

Though the redistricting was done at the behest of his Democratic-Republican Party, it was Gerry who signed the bill in 1812. As a result, he received the dubious honor of attribution, along with its negative connotations. ..."

Judicial Watch: 372,000 Inactive Voters Removed from Colorado Voter Rolls after Lawsuit and Settlement

Good news! Colorado has only a few million population! Unfortunately, I do not remember of the top of my head how close e.g. presidential election results are in Colorado.

"... Under the National Voter Registration Act of 1993 (NVRA), states must take reasonable steps to remove ineligible voters—such as those who have died, moved, or become inactive—while protecting eligible voters’ rights.

 Judicial Watch filed the Colorado federal lawsuit to clean the voter rolls in 2020 on behalf of itself and three residents of Colorado. (Judicial Watch, Inc. v. Griswold, et al.(No. 20-cv-02992)).

In March 2023, Colorado’s secretary of state agreed to settle the lawsuit and has confirmed to Judicial Watch that since 2023 the state removed 372,000 ineligible voters from the state’s voter registration lists.

Judicial Watch’s lawsuits and legal actions have now led to the removal of six million ineligible names from voter lists nationwide. ..."

Minnesota’s massive Fraud Is Blowing the Lid Off a Broken Election System

What a failed state is Minnesota? Governor Tim Walz is a joke, so glad he did not become the Vice President of the US with the help of Mistress Kamala!

And the citizens of Minnesota voted for Governor Tim Walz twice! Shame on them!

"Fraud investigations are engulfing Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz, but that isn’t the only issue demanding attention in that state.

The state’s election system is being exposed for vulnerabilities that undermine transparency and confidence in democracy.

Recent reporting has brought renewed attention to just how permissive Minnesota’s election framework has become. The state allows voters to “vouch” for up to eight other individuals at the polls — a practice that requires no voter identification and relies entirely on personal attestation. In isolation, that policy would raise red flags. In combination with broader governance failures and ongoing fraud investigations, it becomes a serious liability. ..."

Trump threatens to sue as BBC admits manipulative speech edit before 2024 US elections for $1 billion

I think, he should go ahead and sue BBC! Dishonest and propaganda journalism like BBC with the intention to influence an election outcome needs to be punished!

For the BBC to call this scandal an "error of judgment" [???] is disingenuous at best!

"U.S. President Donald Trump has threatened legal action against the BBC for its editing of a speech he made in 2021 on the day his supporters overran the Capitol, which the British broadcaster admitted on Monday was an "error of judgment" [???].

The president's lawyers said the BBC must retract its documentary by November 14 or face a lawsuit for "no less" than $1 billion, according to a letter sent on Sunday. ...

The crisis was sparked by the leaking of an internal report that raised concerns about the BBC's coverage, including the edit of the Trump speech in a programme broadcast shortly before the November 2024 U.S. presidential election. ..."

Should election ballots be counted arriving or received after election day?

This is a fundamental question facing any democracy! In my opinion this should be generally prohibited as the risk of manipulation is real and prevention thereof is challenging.

Here are contested laws from three US states:

"Mississippi

 ... A state law allowing ballots received up to five days after Election Day to be counted. ...

Illinois

... a state law that extends Election Day by a whopping 14 days beyond the date established by federal law.

California

... [A] state law permitting ballots received up to seven days after Election Day ..."

Trump to Sign Executive Order Outlawing Mail-in Ballots

FBI documents show agency sat on intel on potential China plan to meddle in 2020 election for 46th President

Very serious stuff! Hopefully some US government employees will be indicted soon, if these allegations are confirmed!

The FBI Director (Christopher A. Wray from 2017-2025) under the 46th President was a sleazeball! Unfortunately, President Trump (45) did not fire him!

I have blogged here several times and years ago that the scandals of the senile, demented and corrupt 46th President are much bigger than Watergate ever was. Only this time no journalist followed up on this like Carl Bernstein and Bob Woodward!

Wray a RINO and a sleazebag? Very likely so!
