In Chinese tradition, 2019 is the year of the pig. In the Hebrew calendar it is year 5779.
In America, this is the year citizens can finally be protected from organized voting fraud.
In the year leading up to the presidential vote, major candidates and challengers quickly move from toe to toe and become fully immersed in the campaign. Many Democratic notables are publicly eyeing the 2020 White House election, and a few swamp-educated, establishment Republicans are posing behind the scenes.
While potential candidates argue about their presidential hopes, voters busy with their daily lives do not consider whether their vote could be invalidated by a false vote. However, this possibility has become a sedate problem that threatens the very foundations of our democracy.
The National Voter Registration Act of 1993 (commonly known as the “Voter Drive”) gave voting rights activists what they had been looking for for years – uncomplicated voter registration. Anyone who obtained a driver’s license or applied for federal welfare benefits could vote. However, only A legal provision intended to protect citizens against vote fraud was ignored – Art. 8 – which required states and counties to maintain precise voter rolls.
That’s why today, voter rolls across the country are filled with the names of millions of people who have died, emigrated, are not U.S. citizens, or never even existed. This matters because each of them can be voted on, and each of these names and these false votes dilutes the value of each legitimate vote. Millions of dollars flowing from George Soros to register foreigners and the refusal of election activists to remove ineligible names from the rolls are fostering organized voting fraud that is virtually undetectable.
As politicians and political analysts like to say, “elections have consequences.” This is indeed the case, and corruption in elections also has consequences, all of them tragic.
The law may be on the books, but if it is not enforced, it may as well not exist. This was the problem with Section 8 and why a federal lawsuit was filed against Broward County, Florida before 9/11vol The U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals has the potential to change the entire game – for the benefit of eligible voters.
The American Civil Rights Union v. Dr. Brenda Snipes will finally give Section 8 NVRA the resources it needs to protect original votes by defining the processes and procedures election officials must employ to keep voter rolls immaculate and precise – literally cutting off the blood of voter fraudsters.
ACRU v. Snipes the hearing will take place on March 12vol and that’s it the a case that could impact the integrity of our 2020 elections. Florida, Ohio, Texas and Virginia are key battleground states and if even one result is stolen through fraud, a national election could be thwarted.
Broward County, Florida was the most frequently reported election integrity issue in 2018, but it wasn’t the only one. Voting rights activists who reject voter photo ID laws, citizenship requirements to register to vote, immaculate voter rolls and other common-sense voting protections have eroded the votes of the conservative electorate, especially in places like Orange County, California.
According to the latest census data, there are more than 3 million more registered voters in the United States than living adults. The elderly joke: “Dead people vote!” this is not a joke at all. Yet anyone calling for precise voter rolls is accused of “voter suppression” by the progressive left, an accusation that is outrageous, disingenuous and self-serving.
Self-government is our most precious civil right and cannot survive without fair elections. Voting fraud and stolen contests are destroying the foundations of our system. How ACRU v. Snipes influence, facts about voting fraud and corruption in Florida will be made public.
In Chinese tradition, the Year of the Pig brings good luck. In the Hebrew tradition, the number nine can mean purity. Let’s hope this will be the case in 2019 as well.
Politicians, election officials, media and voters should monitor this situation closely ACRU v. Snipes. This landmark case changes the dynamics of our electoral process to the benefit of the American voter.
