Ballot-harvesting, not just for California anymore...
American Thinker ^ | December 7, 2018 | Edward Ring

Posted on 12/07/2018 6:07:16 AM PST by NYer

California looks like a lost cause for Republicans, given how Democrats clinched the midterm with a series of new laws.  Maybe no big deal, given that California has been a solid blue state for something like 20 years.  But are Americans aware of the potential for California vote-rigging to come to their states, making them so blue that no conservative will ever be able to win an election?

A California political operative, Edward Ring, writing in American Greatness, lays out the coming spectacle:

Three laws in particular combined to stack the deck against Republicans.  First came the Motor Voter law.  This meant that as soon as any California resident acquired or renewed his driver's license or state ID, he would be registered to vote automatically.  Second, the state legislature authorized counties automatically to send absentee ballots to voters, even if they had not requested those ballots.  Third, the rules governing ballot custody were changed so that anyone could turn in absentee ballots, not just the actual voter.

The opportunities presented by these three laws were fully exploited by Democrats.

You are right.

As a former New Yorker, I agree with you. The Democrats (with the help of the Rockefeller Republicans - little difference) have ruined that beautiful State. That's one reason I got escaped New York. It vies with Kommiefornia, Taxachussets, and Joisey for being politically loathsome.
