Why do Republicans never “find” a bag of ballots?...........

If we don't start playing their game, we're sunk.

If we DO start playing their game, we will be worse off because we can never be guaranteed of a fair election. What we need is for this Congress to establish uniform voting and ballot custody laws for the entire United States.

First, do away with mail in ballots for anyone not actually outside the country or the state on election day. Most states have early voting so there is little excuse for not showing up. As we have seen, this is nothing but a way for Rats to stuff the ballot box with fake ballots.

Second, establish firm laws regarding the chain of custody. Have representatives of all parties to witness the number of ballots at the start of the election and the number of ballots, cast and still blank, at the end of the election. Serialize the ballots with bar codes. All unused ballots are to be counted, their serial numbers recorded and then taken into custody. This won’t stop ballot box stuffing, but it will reduce the number of “found” ballots.

Third, eliminate electronic voting machines that do not have a paper trail. There is no reason that the machine could not print your selections and allow you to view them through a window to verify them. If there is an anomoly, you call the judge over who stamps “VOID” on it and you BOTH initial your ballot. The electronic tally from that machine is then declared unreliable and the paper ballot is used for the tally from that machine.

Fourth, force EVERYONE to present a government issued photo ID before the are allowed to vote.

Fifth, require all states purge their voting records of the dead and those ineligible to vote six months before the presidential elections. Require people to renew their voter registration IN PERSON once every 4 years.

Sixth, eliminate “same day registration”.
