Republican candidate for Virginia governor walks fine line on election fraud [Says Reuters]

At a recent Virginia rally, Republican gubernatorial candidate Glenn Youngkin talked up his plans to boost the economy and fight crime, and said nothing at all about false claims that Democratic President Joe Biden's election victory was the result of fraud.

But some in the crowd heard the message all the same, moments before the former private equity executive's speech, when Republican state Senator Amanda Chase told Youngkin supporters - offstage and without a microphone - that she was on guard against a repeat of election cheating.

"I know what the Democrats are trying to do," she said in an interview after remarks that drew cheers. "If things happen again like this past year, they will be caught," said Chase, one of Virginia's leading voices in support of former President Donald Trump's baseless claims of voter fraud, who last year called on him to declare martial law following his loss to Biden.

The dynamic illustrated the fine line Youngkin walks on the campaign trail. He is trying to avoid turning off die-hard supporters of Trump, a Republican, whose allegations the election was stolen from him were rejected by dozens of courts, state election officials and members of his own administration.

But Youngkin also does not want to alienate the independent voters who disapprove of Trump and his role in sparking the deadly Jan. 6 attack on the U.S. Capitol intended to overturn his election defeat.

The article is actually pretty telling... Glen is making a fatal mistake in my mind. NOVA is probably only eclipsed by LA, SF and NJ on voter fraud. He has to over come it or at least suppress it. I think he is signaling that he won’t contest the election...which is giving the green light for industrial scale voter fraud like we saw in the CA recall. THERE ARE NO BLUE STATES. The entire Democratic Party, much like the CCP is driven by fraud. His only chance is to convince the DNC that he has them dead to rights and have folks on the ground gathering affidavits and actually file a couple within the next couple of weeks.

If he can convince them that he will expose them and their methods he might suppress the fraud enough to win. If he looks like he might accept results that he knows are fraudulent then the Dems will do what Dems do best and steal the hell out of this election like they do every one they can.

When Larry Elder said “Biden won fair and square” it was over over for Larry, the DNC knew they were cleared hot to steal the election for recall on an industrial scale and they went to the max just to show how corrupt and evil they were and how little they care about the will of the Californian electorate.

Not looking good right now.

They just calculate based on what percentage they want to win by, and voila! the number of votes mysteriously appear.

FALSE CLAIMS

BASELESS CLAIMS.

Boy, they quadruple down on the fraud cover up.

The method is in the algorithm. Screw up the algorithm for the win.

“...and said nothing at all about false claims that Democratic President Joe Biden’s election victory was the result of fraud...”

One does not need to know much to see that such writing pretty much counters that sentence. Given that virtually every inquiry into those claims has met with strong Democrat resistance (and destruction of evidence) along with the bend over and do me media, I’ll go with “Reuters is a lying POS collection of liberals”, Jim. And I’ll bet that I am correct.

whose allegations the election was stolen from him were rejected by dozens of courts

Another BIG LIE that is constantly repeated. No court has ever ruled on the allegations. They were "rejected" due to lack of standing or not filing in a timely manner. The most egregious one was in PA filed by the Rep candidate for Congress. In challenging the Sec of States illegal edicts, under PA law, they can't sue unless they have suffered damages ( so no standing ). If they wait until they have suffered damages ( thus have standing ) another part of the law says they had to file before the election. So if they filed before the election - no standing. If they filed after the election - not filed in a timely manner.

beginning with the ambiguous headline - which can be read as alleging Youngkin is planning fraud - Reuters simply uses every stock anti-Trump line you see in FakeNewsMSM every day.

You would think that urinalists like this would hate their jobs knowing how full of crap they are.

There were exactly zero courts that rejected the allegations the election was stolen. There was never a vote fraud case heard in court.

These kind of stories are just paid democrat political advertisements.

Reuters need to be brought up on illegal campaign contributions.

We may be reaching the point where these kinds of BS propaganda articles actually do the swamp more damage. Many people are begging to see the conspiracy of the deep state.

Thank you for posting. And a BIG thanks for the bolding. Really highlights the propaganda techniques of these leftist scumbags.
