Once again — A popular, attractive, honest, and competent Republican candidate had his race taken from him after several days of delayed vote counting.
This time it was Adam Laxalt in Nevada.
Laxalt led the polls and had a good election day turnout. He led the race by tens of thousands of votes.
On Thursday Adam Laxalt told Tucker Carlson that his opponent did not have a valid path to victory. Adam Laxalt told Tucker that his opponent needed 63% of the remaining 84,000 votes in Clark County, Nevada to catch up with him in the vote count.
Adam Laxalt told Tucker: “She does not have the amount of votes left to be able to catch us. She would have to win over 63%… The Las Vegas ballots left include election day drop off mail.”
Guess what happened?
As Emerald Robinson explains it: “So it was strange, and a little disconcerting, to see that Laxalt’s opponent got exactly 63% of those remaining 84,000 votes two days later.”

Thanks to the Dems the entire system is corrupt, need to revert to a signed paper ballot with voter ID or the Democracy is over with.
Well, it appears they too have some basic math skills. Dems were already working on it when he said it to Tucker.
We’re NOT a democracy.
“Thanks to the Dems the entire system is corrupt, need to revert to a signed paper ballot with voter ID or the Democracy is over with.”
I am sure that will be the very first thing the victorious demonrats tackle
“...need to revert to a signed paper ballot with voter ID...”

People are calling for the GOP to get with the program, but it’s a system that fundamentally favors urban party machines because it’s easier to ballot harvest from an apartment block than it is driving country roads.
Democrats changed the way we do elections in 2020, giving themselves weeks/months to canvas ghettos, nursing homes, etc squeezing ballots out of extreme low-propensity voters who don’t even know who’s on the ballot. It’s a fundamentally different political decision-making system.
Florida is a *supposedly* purple state where none of this is allowed, and we just saw what happened there. GOP state parties should replicate Florida’s rules everywhere they have power, and do what they can make up the difference in states where they don’t.
Biden didn’t even campaign and got 12m more votes and much better turnout than Obama in 2008. He got 16m more votes than Hillary in ‘16, even though Trump increased his vote total by 12m. The idea that this is due to anything but scamming mail-in/harvesting rules is absurd.
Democrats can’t ever allow improvements to election security, because the huge difference in their vote count pre- and post-reforms would beg too many questions. Florida has always been a 51-49 state, but went R+20 once basic election securities measures were put in place.
Meanwhile, those that showed up on election day (72% GOP) were met with machines not working, long lines, shortage of ballots, etc.
That is REAL voter suppression.
We don’t do anything about it, so they’ll keep doing it.
Section 2 of the 14th Amendment (14A) is a penalty for states that rig the ballot boxes. That amendment gives the federal government the responsibility to investigate and punish offending states with a loss of House eeats, the corrupt feds wrongly not even willing to investigate allegations of voting fraud.
Excerpted from 14A:
"Section 2: Representatives shall be apportioned among the several States according to their respective numbers, counting the whole number of persons in each State, excluding Indians not taxed. But when the right to vote at any election for the choice of electors for President and Vice President of the United States, Representatives in Congress, the Executive and Judicial officers of a State, or the members of the Legislature thereof, is denied to any of the male inhabitants of such State, being twenty-one years of age, and citizens of the United States, or in any way abridged, except for participation in rebellion, or other crime, the basis of representation therein shall be reduced in the proportion which the number of such male citizens shall bear to the whole number of male citizens twenty-one years of age in such State." [Section 2: Apportionment of Representatives]
"Section 5: The Congress shall have power to enforce, by appropriate legislation, the provisions of this article."
Corrections, insights welcome.
Patriots need to raise their voices about the feds blatantly ignoring the Constitution.
When the counting of ballots takes more than 2 days, it ALWAYS results in the Democrat winning.
Imagine that.
“We’re NOT a democracy.”
We ARE a Constitutionally mandated, democratically elected, representative republic.
If the “democratically elected” portion is compromised, we are Russia.
The only pertinent question is : What the hell is Laxalt and the Republican Party, including the newly elected governor GOING TO DO ABOUT IT?
27 states - mail-in ballot with no excuse(reason) required
8 states - mail-in ballots are sent out to every registered voter
That’s 35 of 50 states that don’t require you to have a reason for requesting a mail-in ballot
Meanwhile, dems utilize mail-in ballots as a tool and repubs do not. Dem NGOs likely either mail people(dem voters) a ballot request form or a reminder and instructions on how to request one.
Not buying into GP fairy tales this time. Republicans lost because Republicans are playing the wrong game to win. Forget the candidates or the issues; under the new rules, all that counts are ballots. Republicans need to put their money into the ground game, i.e., ballot collection. It’s the only way to win, especially since the election rules can’t be changed with Democrat legislative majorities.
Thanks to the GOPe you mean. That is the system that leaves their same sorry lazy drunken asses in their seats year after year.
