Gestapo DOJ Sends Election Meddlers to 24 States; Ron DeSantis Tells Them They Are Forbidden to Enter State Polling Places

These tyrants must be made to pay.

Take their power away.

Take their funding away.

And in 2025, take their jobs away.

The Justice Department will send monitors to 24 states in an effort to ensure compliance with federal voting rights laws in Tuesday's elections.

The action, which occurs regularly on Election Day, comes as civil rights groups and the federal government have raised alarm over potential voter intimidation at some polling places and ballot boxes.

The 2022 election is playing out against the backdrop of persistent falsehoods made by former President Donald Trump and his Republican allies about losing the 2020 vote, a relentless campaign that will have implications as people cast their ballots.

Democrats, on the other hand, have expressed concerns over the potential for voter suppression.

The 64 jurisdictions where federal monitors -- typically lawyers with the department's civil rights division and U.S. attorney's offices across the United States -- are going include Maricopa County, Arizona, where there have been reports of people watching ballot boxes, sometimes armed or wearing ballistic vests.

Ballot boxes are not polling places, and ballistic vests are not weapons.

BREAKING: Florida Department of State sent a letter to Biden's DOJ telling them their federal election monitors are banned from going inside polling places

The Dept says it would be counter productive and undermine confidence in the election

Missouri's Secretary of State sent a similar letter.

Meanwhile, there are reports that Democrats are ejecting legal, credentialed poll watchers from polling places:

Is that on the level? Well, last month she tweeted out her certificates of graduation from a poll watching course, which credentialed her to be a poll watcher. Did she start a "hoax" a month ago? Is this The Long Con in action?

Seems unlikely.

105 When you are old and grey and full of sleep,
And nodding by the fire, take down this book,
And slowly read, and dream of the soft look
Your eyes had once, and of their shadows deep;

How many loved your moments of glad grace,
And loved your beauty with love false or true,
But one man loved the pilgrim soul in you,
And loved the sorrows of your changing face;

And bending down beside the glowing bars,
Murmur, a little sadly, how Love fled
And paced upon the mountains overhead
And hid his face amid a crowd of stars.

Anyway, just now back from voting.

It's a lovely, sunny day, in the 50's...no reason not to get out and vote, vote, vote.

The polling place was empty...maybe five voters in total at this precinct. This is very odd given the demographics of the neighborhood, as it skews older / retired. In years past, voting at this time of day would have been a nightmare.

And my kvetch of the day: Enough with three generations of candidates from one family. Especially when the recent generation's spawn is an idiot. Unfortunately he was on the R and I line...didn't want to vote for him, but I had no choice.

194 and the feckless GOPe better not stand for this crap again.

Honest question - why wouldn't they stand for it? Consider:

- the 2020 election was stolen in broad daylight and the right bent over and took it dry.
- the GOP has campaigned on virtually nothing and, for a few moments, was looking at a 'red wave.'
- Cruz, Paul, McConnell, McCarthy, Grassley and all the rest will still have their phony-baloney jobs after today's 'vote' is over.
- they know there isn't going to be any sort of nationwide strike, backlash or punishment for the Dem steal, because you - the putative 'voter' - have to work, pay your bills and feed your family. You can't afford to protest the steal.

So, again, why shouldn't the GOP 'stand' for it?

She adds that if you've already checked in, you should NOT go to another place and cast a provisional ballot, because it probably won't count.

217 OK, here we go :

"Mail ballot deadline extended in Georgia after clerical error...A judge in Georgia has ordered one state county to extend the deadline for returning mail-in ballots for hundreds of people.

A clerical error in Cobb county north of Atlanta meant just over 1,000 people did not get sent their ballot papers.

Some have voted in person and others have been sent ballot papers by overnight mail.

But instead of 19:00 on election day, those voters will have until 14 November to get their papers back, as long as they are dated by today.

State officials have blamed “human error” for the problem.

I disagree. There should be degrees.

If you, an individual, cheat on your individual vote (voting twice, etc. - retail voter fraud) then the punishment should be severe but non-permanent. 7 years in the stony lonesome, perhaps.

If you cheat beyond the individual scope, however - if you're a vote mule, for example or engaging in other mid-level vote fraud - then it should be more severe. 15 years.

If you cheat as an official - that is, if you engage in *election* fraud in any way whatsoever, no matter how minor - l then it should be life without parole.

"Election officials in Arizona's hotly contested Maricopa County say they're working "as quickly as possible" to address technical issues with voting tabulators.

He added they were trying to fix the issue as soon as possible, but if voters encountered difficulties, they could also put their ballot into a secure box as a back-up. He also said people could go to another voting location in the county to cast their ballot if they preferred..."

380 DeSantis admin is trying to block DOJ election monitors from accessing polling places in South FL He wants to run Florida like a 3rd world country with a dictator.

He's one of the more dangerous politicians I've seen. I just do not understand Americans that totally lack the capability to see through his BS.

They are doing this in Missouri too. The monitors are not going inside but staying outside. What is their problem? What are they trying to hide?

the Constitution (and federal laws enacting same) are superior to state laws/constitutions but DOJ has to actually point to something in that constitution/law enabling their actions. Particularly since the federal constitution gives the most control over elections to the states.

Hmmm, what if congress sent them? Constitutionally congress can define a lot of parameters around voting for congressional seats nationally IINM

420 *sips tea*

All of this angst about machines down and mail in ballot counts only matter if the early vote is close to the election day vote. Which means low turn out today.

Election day turnout has exceeded expections in 2016, 2018, and 2020. The data has shown massive intent for GOP voters to vote today.

Early vote didn't hit the numbers needed and ABC is wishcasting if they think more votes are sitting in post offices that will overcome today's vote.

Everything I've seen is turnout is heavy in GOP areas so far, so we will see what happens.

Also, why compact your trash when you're just dumping it into space?
Nothing about that scene makes sense.

Just like people walked around for four years *sure* that Trump was authoritative-izing over them, they'll walk around for 2 more *sure* that democracy is dead.

518 I'm stuck in the middle with you after voting & getting more wood for the woodstove. Here, in glorious Delco, PA, county voters who have submitted ANY flawed vote-by-mail ballots are being reminded to correct them as any considered to be flawed (damaged, unsigned, undated, improperly dated, unsealed, or not placed in the "secrecy envelope" before being placed in the larger return envelope) may be disqualified.

The county's Bureau of Elections is responsible for reviewing all ballots returned by mail. Those considered flawed are segregated & the Bureau attempts to contact voters to give them a chance to obtain a new ballot at the Voter Service Center, for completion & return during the same visit. Voters who didn't receive their vote-by-mail ballot can check the status online & visit the Voter Service Center to obtain a replacement. Vote-by-mail ballots must be properly completed, sealed, signed & dated to be counted before 8pm today.

A Philly radio station reported Comcast CEO Roberts had a flawed vote-by-mail ballot as did a well-known attorney. So we see if they can F-up, anyone can.

527 >>> 420 *sips tea*

All of this angst about machines down and mail in ballot counts only matter if the early vote is close to the election day vote. Which means low turn out today.

Election day turnout has exceeded expections in 2016, 2018, and 2020. The data has shown massive intent for GOP voters to vote today.

Early vote didn't hit the numbers needed and ABC is wishcasting if they think more votes are sitting in post offices that will overcome today's vote.

Everything I've seen is turnout is heavy in GOP areas so far, so we will see what happens.

Literally NO part of the Cons. reads that way.

Even the literature around the 14th says that "rights" cannot be counted or enumerated (doctrinally correct). That there are virtually unlimited number of rights. But it does not confer them to the discretion of the federal government.

The people doing intake when I went (right when they opened, so as to miss a minimum of work) said that the crowd when the doors opened (there were 15 people in line, including me - I counted) was larger than usual. The line was still 10 deep (consisting of some new people, of course) when I walked about the door 13 minutes later.

Dunno if it means anything or not. This is my first election here.

627 Mercer County, NJ scanning machines are not being used. Voters are signed in, handed a ballot to fill out, and those ballots are being dropped in a slot in the machine that appears to be a garbage container.

It's Mercer County, so there are not very many Republicans, but there is a bitter (by this town's standards anyway) school board election here, with charges of racism and misogyny (thrown against a female immigrant candidate), as well as pleas for support of the school board's "equity" curriculum.

It's easy if you just understand it at a schoolyard level. The Dems want their way.

They don't want you to say what they don't want you to say. They don't want you to vote how they don't think you should vote.

778 The Sandinista National Liberation Front completed its political domination of Nicaragua on Monday as electoral officials said it had won control of all the country’s 153 municipalities in elections that critics called unfair.

Coming into Sunday’s elections, the party of President Daniel Ortega already controlled 141 of Nicaragua’s municipalities. But having outlawed the country’s main opposition parties and jailed dozens of opposition figures, the field was clear for the Sandinistas’ sweep.

Binding Prayer for a Fair and Moral Election

In His Name and by the power of His Cross and Blood, I ask Jesus to bind any evil spirits, forces and powers of the earth, air, fire, or water, of the netherworld and the satanic forces of nature. By the power of the Holy Spirit and by His authority, I ask Jesus Christ to break any curses, hexes, or spells and send them back to where they came from, if it be His Holy Will. I beseech Thee Lord Jesus to protect us by pouring Thy Precious
Blood on us, which Thou hast shed for us and I ask Thee to command that any departing spirits leave quietly, without disturbance, and go straight to Thy Cross to dispose of as Thou sees fit. I ask Thee to bind any demonic interaction, interplay, or communications. I place us under the protection of the Blood of Jesus Christ which He shed for us. Amen

It's true though that in the Bible where God wanted to part rivers he had the Israelites wade into them first. You have to do a part, even it the part itself seems futile in the hope of getting the whole thing done. (Which *wading* wouldn't do).

844 Cris radio ad just now blaming DeSantis for high electricity and food costs. Democrats are evil and have no shame at all, plus they do truly believe that their voters are stupid.

847 I generally avoid pessimism and "conspiracy theory" thinking, but come on, you can't see this pattern and NOT be suspicious:

1) To culminate a 2 year campaign of "othering" anyone who shows even the slightest skepticism about election integrity, Biden gives a completely out of place speech, scheduled hastily, demanding everyone accept the results of the upcoming election that all indicators show is likely to be a bloodbath for his side.

848 Ok, that's Biden just doing the stupid thing because it's Biden, right? Well, then we get...

2) In the final days before the election, a coordinated steady drumbeat of "any intelligent person knows that it's going to take days or weeks before the results are known" despite the fact that even a 3rd world hell-hole can count all their votes in one day.

Now, why would they stress that so hard? you may ask yourself. And that's when the final piece kicks in:

3) On election day, systemic "failures" of voting machines plus last-minute procedural changes (ala Philadelphia) all designed to do one thing: delay the counting and reporting of votes in key districts.

The only sane and logical conclusion is they're going to steal everything that isn't nailed down - and they're bringing in crowbars to try for them too.
