Cook County GOP Boots Out Stealth Democrat Committeemen

Worrying over whether someone is a real Republican is hardly a new issue for the GOP in a Democratic-dominated city where some wards are nearly devoid of Republican voters, let alone anyone who can occupy a leadership role. Accordingly, committeemen spots have long been sought by opportunistic converts of questionable loyalty.

But Christopher Cleveland, chairman of the Chicago Republican Party, said concern was heightened after the Democratic-controlled Legislature in one of its last acts under Gov. Pat Quinn in 2015 gave ward committeemen the power to submit lists of proposed election judges. Previously, that power had been held by the county party.

Cleveland said he believes Democrats then tried to install their own people as Republican committeemen in hopes of filling polling places with Democratic election judges, which he said would create “open season for vote fraud.”

“We’re fighting back. We’re fed up. We’ve had enough,” Cleveland said.

Pat Quinn, the populist faker, who promotes vote fraud.

Stealth? Just move up to the big leagues, where the “big tent” doesn’t care what you stand for, just send money. Heck, we don’t even need two parties, the GOP is two parties, baked into one!!

Boulder county clerk kicked out republicans form the vote count because they got out of the box they were suppose to stand in. If they had larger than a size 8 shoe they could not stay in the box. Also one of the republicans had been a registered demonicrat just two weeks earlier

I’m surprised they can find ANY Republicans in Cook county.

Scatter, harassed and gerrymandered, but one of the largest blocs of GOP votes in the state.
