We’re seeing a lot of coverage of the Arizona audit on rightwing news sites that are stating that the mail-in voting systems must be “fixed,” so that 2020 cannot happen again. I respectfully disagree. Mail-in voting cannot be fixed, corrected, repaired, refurbished, renovated, adjusted, overhauled or patched. Once a state adopts universal mail-in balloting, Democrats always seize full control of the reins of power and eventually, Republicans become incapable of winning any statewide offices there. Funny how that phenomenon only works one way, huh?
Here’s a look at two states that are considered the gold standards for mail-in voting in America: Oregon and Colorado.
Oregon was the first state to adopt universal mail-in voting in 2000. How’d that work out for Senator Gordon Smith (R-OR), the last Republican to be elected to a statewide office in Oregon?
Smith was first elected to the Senate in 1996, prior to universal mail-in voting. He defeated his Democrat opponent by a vote of roughly 677,000 to 624,000. Smith proved to be a popular leader with Oregon voters, and when he ran for election in 2002, he wiped out his opponent: 712,000 to 501,000. This was Smith’s first run with universal mail-in voting in Oregon.
In 2008, Gordon Smith accomplished something that no other Republican Senator from Oregon had ever done. He increased his vote total over his 2002 run by roughly 100,000 votes. It was an all-time high for a Republican Senator in Oregon: 805,159 votes. And yet somehow, Gordon Smith lost. The Democrats who totally controlled the elections in Oregon somehow came up with an additional 363,000 votes over their 2002 total. Gordon Smith was the last Republican US Senator for Oregon. There will never be another one elected, so long as universal mail-in voting decides the outcome of Oregon’s elections.
Then there’s Colorado, which became a universal mail-in voting state in 2013. Cory Gardner won his first run for US Senator in Colorado in 2014. It was a narrow election, but he managed to unseat incumbent Sen. Mark Udall (D-CO) by about 40,000 votes.
During his run for reelection in 2020, Senator Cory Gardner accomplished an astonishing feat. He pulled in a record-high 1.4 million votes! This was about a 450,000-vote increase over his total in 2012. No other Republican candidate for Senate has ever pulled in numbers like that.
But… and stop me if you’ve heard this one before… Cory Gardner lost his seat, despite that record-high total. The Democrats somehow turned up an additional 783,000 mail-in ballots over their 2014 total, to wipe out Cory Gardner. Universal mail-in voting allowed 783,000 new voters to materialize out of thin air.
If this all sounds eerily familiar, that’s exactly what happened to Donald Trump in 2020. He enjoyed record-high turnout and earned more votes than any Republican candidate in history. He increased his vote total over his wipeout of the Crooked One in 2016. And he somehow lost, after mail-in ballots continued to materialize out of thin air in five Democrat-controlled counties in swing states.
32 countries in Europe know that mail-in voting cannot be “fixed.” They’ve banned mail-in ballots entirely. If you want to exercise your privilege to vote there, you have to show up in person and cast a paper ballot after showing your ID. Nine countries in Europe allow strictly controlled mail-in voting, but the postal service doesn’t mail the ballot to you. A voter in those countries has to show up in person and present their ID to get a mail-in ballot. Only two countries in Europe allow universal mail-in voting. The rest have either banned or strictly control the process, because it’s too easy for fraud to take place otherwise. Mail-in voting is a system that cannot be “fixed.”
Maricopa County, Arizona is holding local elections next month, so they’ve already started mailing out ballots there. Arizona State Rep. Travis Grantham (R) is sounding the alarm already, because his sister’s ballot came to his parents’ address. The problem is that she moved to California 15 years ago, and she asked to be taken off Arizona’s voter rolls when she moved away in 2006.
In the words of Rep. Grantham, “Something ain’t right.” That’s for sure. Mail-in voting only has one purpose: Democrat election theft. It’s a system that cannot be fixed. Banning it is the only solution.
I agree it is to easy to use even dead people s name s that have died within even up to more than a year before the actual voting. Because no person actually check’s on it or someone moved and was not removed. The laws I saw for open elections if you’re from a different country on vacation here you could vote because of no restrictions
Bon Qui Qui von Hair Gel won his CA recall with 66 % of the mail-in votes tallied in his favor to save his lying ass from expulsion. I did one don’t think he pulled in 2 out of 3 votes in that special election.
He’s the slimiest of the slithering slime balls that hail from wonderful, liberal, facist CA.
OH the leaders we have from CA…….
Diane Feinstein ……
Nancy Pelosi …..
Eric Swallwell …..
Adam Schitt……
lest we not forget our favorite, James Brown wig wearing, loquaciously ignorant piece of feces Maxine Waters
And folks wonder why CA is such a fucked up State. Look at this leadership. That why CA is where it is.
These folks mentioned are ALL mental facility candidates
Wait, what? Republicans are only now waking up to what We the Little People have known for 20 years now? That universal anything goes mail voting is costing them?
Small wonder that the Democrats are cleaning house. Republicans are STUPID.
There were and still are legitimate reasons for mail-in voting. But NOT that download ballots from the net fully criminal fiasco type of thing that Democrats just pulled off in Caliphorniastan. It must be properly controlled.
Republicans in office have DELIBERATELY allowed the CommieCrats to seize the vote. That way they can retain their percs and privileges and still blame the other guy for the nations collapse.
I totally DISTRUST both parties now and recent events prove why. No problem though, the Republican Party will turn the problem over to the likes of Romney, El Foldo McConnell and Murkowski to solve and no doubt McCain will vote from the grave to help them out.
Get ready for the midterms! The Democrats will roll with another 491 million votes and take all 50 states, the northern half of Mexico and Quebec.
An old adage says:
“It is not the vote that counts, but who counts the votes is what counts.”
Democrat politics is about gaining more and more power and control. Therefore, voting by mail with Democrats processing the ballots meets their needs. Who cares about the needs of our nation, right?
This is EXACTLY what I have said about Oregone for many years.
As if I wrote this article my self.
It is a true fact, Republicans are doomed if they continue mail in voting.
But when you have a super majority state of Democrats, you can’t change anything they don’t want changed.
No wonder the eastern part of the state wants to succeed to another state.
OREGONE SUCKS…
I don’t know who wrote this article (no signature), but he (or she) is absolutely correct. Eliminate mail-in voting outright, unless it is requested by the voter due to illness or temporary absence.
The problem is…corrupt politicians who cheat to win elections. This is a Federal offense…right?
Cheating and lying are a way of life for politicians of both parties, especially the Democrat Party. Integrity and honesty are foreign or words not in their vocabulary. The sad truth is when a politician or individual speaks or behaves honestly he or she is immediately labeled racist, homophobic or misogynist or some other name. No wonder this country is going under water. A sovereign God is still in control and allowing this to happen since this country has turned its back on God. Even Obama mocked Jesus concerning the Beatitudes in Matthews 5. Better get ready for the Rapture folks. Maranatha!
Mail-in votibg has got to be out to an end!! It is a truly corrupt tool to STEAL ELECTIONS!!!
