Dick Morris: How Dems Stole Seven House Seats in California
Western Journal ^ | December 3, 2018 | Dick Morris

Posted on 12/05/2018 9:21:04 AM PST by george76

On election night, the Republican Party lost 26 seats in the House, a serious erosion but not a catastrophic one.

But two weeks later, seven races that had been called for Republicans switched and the Democrats were certified to have won. All seven were in California and no seats moved the other way — from blue to red.

...

The state’s Democrats engineered a massive piece of legal fraud to jimmy the results.

...

California sends ballots to every voter before Election Day, whether they request it or not. All the voter needs to do is to fill in his choices and mail the form back.

But, if the mail ballot is not received by Election Day, it can still be counted if a sealed, completed ballot is dropped off with elections officials by hand — and the voter does not have to come to drop off their ballots in person.

In 2016, California Gov. Jerry Brown opened the door to fraud by signing a law allowing anyone to drop off a ballot for another person. This gave rise to a new practice known as “ballot harvesting” in which Democratic Party canvassers visited people who had not voted on Election Day and collected their mail-in ballots and turned them in on their behalf.

This year, a record 250,000 people voted by having someone else turn in their vote-by-mail ballots.

...

the practice of ballot harvesting makes a mockery of the idea of Election Day

...

So what the Democrats did was they looked at the Election Day returns and then targeted those districts they lost but where the margin was close enough that victory might be snatched from the jaws of defeat by a little ballot harvesting.

They flipped seven seats

That’s exactly what happened.

The system should be illegal. Early voting is fine, but late voting amounts to unequal protection of the laws. It gives voters who are harvested an unequal opportunity to cast their ballots. So those who vote for parties that are better organized and send canvassers around door-to-door get to have an Election “Day” that stretches into weeks.

Morris is correct, here.

Something else should be observed and frequently stated...

Democrats (including socialists and Marxists) just HATE free and fair elections. And...

Democrat voters do not seem to realize that THEIR votes eventually will not matter, either. (Should scare them, doesn't.)

I know we have Freepers who live there and probably love it, but increasingly I see no good reason to want to live in California, or even to visit.

How many people who made fun of Trump’s vote fraud investigation have seen the light and owe Trump an apology?

So, are there any, you know, DEADlines involved in this practice?

Oh, that’s right. Until the Democrat candidate pulls ahead. THAT’s the deadline.

They are just perfecting their vote fraud.
2016 shocked them.
They did their usual cheating and it wasn’t enough.

The Democrat Party was broke.

Who paid all those people to go out and collect ballots?

They didn’t do it for free.

California wouldn’t even lift a finger to defend its properly, popularly enacted marriage amendment.

A government of criminals.

THIS should be the number one news story on every US outlet.

The fact that it isn’t illustrates how totally fake the Fake News is.

How is this ballot harvesting, as well as early voting, etc... constitutional according to the 14th Amendment?
