With an unprecedented pandemic sweeping the country and millions of Americans now out of work, it didn’t take long for Democrats to begin looking for a way to exploit the crisis for their own political advantage.
After all, as former Obama advisor and veteran of Democrat Chicago machine politics Rahm Emmanuel famously said: “Never let a good crisis go to waste.” And the Democrats, now led by House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, are doing just that.
Their gambit this time?
Try and use the CARES bill designed to get badly needed relief to struggling Americans and small businesses during the coronavirus pandemic to push for one of the far-left’s favorite pet issues: mail-in voting.
To the uninitiated, this may seem innocent enough, after all, aren’t House Democrats merely attempting to make voting in November’s election safer for everyone involved by helping them avoid potential infection at the polls?
This may seem convincing at first until you realize that mail-in-voting historically has been one of the easiest ways for desperate and unscrupulous politicians and political parties to perform election fraud. And if you think this fact is lost on a seasoned political operator like Nancy Pelosi, you’re dead wrong.
Of course, in recent months, as Democrats have done everything in their power to smuggle their mail-in-voting scheme into coronavirus aid packages, they have been quick to play dumb on the issue and act shocked and outraged when Republicans have raised the concerns about potential fraud.
And let’s be clear here, the fraud isn’t merely “potential,” if mail-in-voting is allowed in November, it will assuredly happen. And, with hundreds of millions of Americans potentially voting by mail, the scale of the fraud may very well turn out to be the largest in modern American history.
How do we know this? Because even public figures and media outlets on the left have been reporting it for years. Even Jimmy Carter has stated as much, as he pointed out in a bipartisan 2005 report of the Commission on Federal Election Reform, he co-chaired with former Secretary of State James Baker III: “Absentee ballots remain the largest source of potential voter fraud.”
Still not convinced? National Public Radio (NPR), a news outlet not exactly known for its right-wing bias, concluded much the same in a 2018 article, which, ironically enough, was written to criticize President Trump’s concerns over in-person voting fraud.
As the article points out, in-person fraud is relatively rare. Or at least rarer than the voting fraud conducted by absentee ballots (voting by mail). The article quoted Charles Stewart, who studies election technology at MIT, who remarked that: “The consensus, among people who study fraud carefully, is that voting by mail is a much more fertile area for fraud than voting in person.”
While liberal outlets were happy to trumpet this fact in 2018, as at the time it seemed like a good way to criticize the president, you won’t hear the same from them today.
Still, if you’re, understandably, not convinced by the words of liberals, you can turn your eyes to an exhaustive report conducted by the Heritage Foundation which recorded over 1,000 proven instances of voter fraud. Many of which involved the fraudulent use of absentee ballots.
The advantage of using mail-in-ballots for fraud is obvious and simple: there is little to no oversight. No poll monitors, little to no ID verification, and absolutely nothing to prevent a nefarious political operator from collecting ballots and filling them out for their preferred candidate en masse in the place of actual voters.
As the previously cited sources have detailed, mail-in-votes were already a fraud problem on the local and state level, and if Nancy Pelosi gets her way, they will be an absolute nightmare in November.
With hundreds of millions of votes involved, there is simply no way to properly guard against voter fraud. Of course, this isn’t a problem for Democrats, who are desperate to try and win in November. And with Joe Biden, their presumptive nominee, already underperforming in the polls, it’s more than likely that they’re willing to use any means at their disposal to do it.
Legal or otherwise.

Federal voter ID. Picture and fingerprints required for voting privileges.
Here Here!
In 2016 the Democrats made 8 million fraudulent votes.
This time it will be more like 13 million FRAUDULENT VOTES.
They don’t plan to lose.
Well You Americans better stay vigilant at any and all elections both local and especially national NOW and far into the future and watch the polls and stop the anti-American democrats and their tools for it the bought out biased medias propaganda LIES fraudulent means! Judging by the way the anti-Americans and medias are acting , no anti-American democrats should be elected , but they will by fraudulent means and unless you Americans are too lazy and dumb to stop it , YOU American will loose big time! Stop having blind patriotism to their corruption and the false mindsets that any government is too big to fight or fail and that any other party vote is wasted beside the current , corrupt 2 party system of repubs and especially the anti-American democrats! The powers that be already think the common masses are too dumb and lazy to go against them, while on the other hand actually fear it! Power to the people!
When someone says “voter fraud is non-existent”, you say “how would you know, no one checks”? The polls are ran by Democrats, they check your address, not your citizenship. I stood in line witnessing a woman at the front demanding that she be allowed to vote, saying loudly that she voted at her previous address, but moved that morning so she needs to vote at the NEW address. They provided her with a ballot, and she proceeded to vote. I can’t unsee that. When the people running California, and the House of Representatives have a family history of mob ties (Google the names), you should have expected.
Did you know that Gavin Newsom is related to Nancy Pelosi, and was adopted by the Getty family?
Dan Winright ….Other wise DemocRATS will Win for sure by fiddling.
Let’s not forget that across the country & world that prisons are letting criminals & illegals out of prison to keep them “safe” from COVID19. The Left wanted those groups to be allowed to vote . . .
The Democrats are the enemy of the American people. Have done nothing but bash our Presidentcand try to impeach him. They are all socialists and will definitely cheat in 2020 election. Only way they can win,
Before I even read the article I was thinking that was exactly their ploy. How many hundreds of thousands of dead people do you think will be voting if that occurs??? How many lost ballots will there be??? This is a really bad move!!!
For every “lost” ballot that voted for Trump, they will create two for Biden
Here’s my experience with the u s mail. Wrong mail in my box, mail people never showing up, stolen birthday money from mailed cards and people i send things to never getting it! My experience with the mail is not an exaggeration. I’m not for mail voting. No no no
Sue …And it’s about time Republicans make noise about NO MAIL VOTING . We got to organise or we will lose it
The collusion charges didn’t stick. The impeachment was a bust. Only cheating will get them in power.
If Wal-Mart is open then so should the voting precient.
The democrats will hang them selfs.Nancy Po lose is a frusttrate old hag.The analysis will consume her.
Mass Mail In Votes is a Big Hell No!!! Been proven by the small amounts that have to already have proven that many are stolen not lost…all deliberately hidden. Voter IDs should be required and have the Supreme Court finally rule on this crap. Mail In and Voter Harvesting is nothing but Election Tampering and Voter Fraud. Harsh max penalties with prison time and with lifetime bar from participation in any Election.
If you do not carry your vote in to the voting poll with valid Government ID you do not vote. Anything else is a scam by Democrats to steal an election.
Valid picture ID proving you’re a true and valid American citizen must be required.
The only way to stop fraud is to use voter ID. PEROID!!!!!
RICH RECO ”voter ID ” Not for DemocRATs, they don’t believe in it hence Mail Voting
ID required to buy a 6-pack of Bud (even though I’m 55 years old), so why should I have a problem with being asked for my ID in order to vote?
Voter ID is the ONLY way to prevent voter fraud, and if liquor stores can be considered “essential” and stay open during a pandemic, then the same should go for election polls.
If still necessary in November, then put up the 6-foot distance lines on the ground (inside and outside of polling places), place voting booths 6 feet apart…you can even make wearing masks mandatory. BUT DEMAND a valid picture ID!!!! There is NOTHING “racist” or “discriminatory” about it, and the ONLY people who have a problem with it are the ones who intend to commit voter fraud!
If the isis dems cant win in November they want to hurt as may of us as possible. No matter what the votes in califukistan need to be investigated if the dems win again. They are only in there now from voter fraud
The only personnel that should be able to use mail in ballots should be the military personnel that are out of CONUS and a way to have proof is that these absentee ballots have a Special military marking on it. Should also state democrat or republican voter. Not to stop people who are going on vacation during the election time should be allowed to submit an absentee ballot one day before the election providing they are actually starting to go on vacation not more than that one day before the election.Also on the military ballots they should be mailed to a specific selected polling counting station on a selected And only one selected military base.Then counted and submitted to the proper democrat party or Republican Party.
The left has already proved to America that they will do and say anything to regain the power.
But there is a simple litmus test to find the truth : 1.) Whatever they say or do, the exact opposite is the truth. 2.) Whatever they don’t like, it must be good. 3.) Whatever they say is broken, must be effective. America is based on everything that has gone before – our laws, our policies, our culture all tried and true foundations. The greatest nation in the history of the world will advance even farther with adult supervision. That leadership is spelled TRUMP.
All is fair in love and war….and politics. Cheating is part of the process, and nobody is as good at that than the Scum-o-crats. Well dead people still have the right to vote…don’t they?
The Voter Fraud already started – in Wisconsin with photos of voters giving snarky looks to the photographers so one can’t help but want to know how many of those ‘voters’ belong there?
Voter ID is a must, not the whole package to stop the Democrat Sharpton and his Rig The Vote Sharpies but it will be a big help – and also get all those ‘deceased’ off the rolls, there’s over a million of those just in one state that was recently in the news.
As well, it’s a good idea that the ‘voter’ must speak – if they don’t understand the language they’re probably not bona fide voters – just ask their name and residence as it’s done in States that do have Voter ID.
There’s no excuse for noone not having an ID.
U have to have ID for doctor office credit card alcohol cigarettes hotel sooo many things so what is different that doesn’t bother u ID mask 6ft r the way To go can’t tell truth!!! Just do the right things! It will be a better world God Bless
Waiting for Voter ID and Trump to limit all languages for Federal notices to English.
This is America, it was never multicultural b/c America has only one culture – immigrant discipline has not changed, immigrants propound allegiance to America only, and save their ethnicities’ cultural doings for their home life and fiestas like Italian-American Day, etc.
Sirdirkfan,
to get american citizenship you must be able to speak english.
so,why do some get a translater??
tell me,why to mexican children born in the US have mexican citizenship?
you want to be mexican that bad,go back to mexico!!
hasta la vista.
Nana got it right: Voter ID is the ONLY way to prevent voter fraud, and if liquor stores can be considered “essential” and stay open during a pandemic, then the same should go for election polls.
If still necessary in November, then put up the 6-foot distance lines on the ground (inside and outside of polling places), place voting booths 6 feet apart…you can even make wearing masks mandatory. BUT DEMAND a valid picture ID!!!! There is NOTHING “racist” or “discriminatory” about it, and the ONLY people who have a problem with it are the ones who intend to commit voter fraud!
November is a ways off so there is absolutely no reason to push for all mail in votes! What should be pushed for is a voter ID law for in person poll voters!
They are desperate and will do and say anything. We’ve got beat them at their own game. This is the only country that cares about anyone else. The good have got to prevail!
Democrats =domestic terrorists
There will be massive voter fraud with mail in ballots. Democrats will conveniently lose Republican votes, or just throw them away. Counties will have more votes than there are registered voters, we already know it, we’ve already seen this in many other elections.
There is no question voter fraud will be on a biblical level! The Anti Hate America left will see to it. They love this engineered Chinese virus, and what it has done and is still doing to America. I say NO MORE agree to disagree with these moronic brain dead voters. Who vote against America, if you vote left YOU Hate America period!
