Are we in a suicide pact?

Why are common sense measures, designed to add integrity to the voting process, usually opposed by Democrats, too many of whom identify with socialist/communist?

Their age-old argument, that requiring voter ID would be racist is in and of itself racist. Research has shown most races favor voter ID.

People who want to undermine our country do not think citizenship should be a prerequisite to voting; even though citizens would like to keep that as a sacred privilege.

Republicans believe mail in voting should be the exceedingly rare exception; while democrats want ballots sent to every registered voter. They refuse to accept that this presents a problem when said registered voter has moved or died, or maybe they count on that as an advantage.

If a hundred-dollar bill can be counterfeited, how much of a stretch is it to counterfeit a post mark by evildoers determined to reverse a voter trend? Should not a red flag pop up if the system allows for the counting of mail in ballots arriving almost a week after election day if they are post marked on or before election day? Really? Keep counting those votes until you get the numbers you need.

“Mailin techniques rely on the delivery of ballots in unsecured modes. Mail channels to and from the courthouse are generally unsecured. The primary assurance that the intended voter returned a legal ballot is a signature on an affidavit that accompanies the returned ballot. Therefore, the integrity of the voting rolls depends on the signature verification skills of local election officials.”

“A Provocative Scenario: It is 2002, and in a tight race for the U.S. House, a voter complains that she did not receive her absentee ballot. The town election official says that the citizen actually voted. An investigation reveals that an organization applied for and filled out hundreds of absentee ballots of people on the “inactive” registration list. The election ends up going to the courts. “

If a citizen can go to a drop box s/he or they or them can go, maybe an extra mile, to a local voting center to vote? If they cannot make it to a polling place, we regret their loss of that right. Many brave people have sacrificed their lives to keep our system of government as it was constituted.

How corrupt or ignorant does a system have to be to allow ballot harvesting?

“France banned absentee voting in 1975 because of massive fraud in Corsica, where postal ballots were stolen or bought, and voters cast multiple votes. Mail-in ballots were used to cast the votes of dead people.” SSRN. 8/3/2020

The rewards and responsibilities at the end of a political race are enormous, particularly when concerning a country as powerful as the US. Hence, we must acknowledge that some dishonest people or countries will stop at nothing to undermine the will of patriotic Americans.
