It's all they have. And it will continue to be all they have until they can find a way to either make it illegal for non-whites to vote, or establish as foundational law that the white vote will always be considered at a ratio to the non-white vote whereby the white population is established as a permanent ruling majority, no matter what the country's actual demographics might be. That's the real objective, of course, but it's proving to be a tricky needle to thread.

Republican National Committee Chair Ronna McDaniel appeared to distance herself from the recently circulated GOP document calling on Republicans at the state level to ramp up election denial efforts for 2024, according to WISN 12 political director Matt Smith.

"That's not an official report. There's other things that need to be added to that, including all the legal pursuits that we had, all the lawsuits that we had," said McDaniel. She added that, "We're going to continue to engage in election integrity, poll watchers, poll workers and litigation when it's necessary."

I think you can describe that distance in Planck length.

Well yeah, they convince the people they want voting for them not to vote at all because it's rigged; effectively rigging it against themselves. It's a pathology. They'll do it to themselves so long as there's a Lib who can be blamed for it. See also: Cut their own face, deface their own property with anti-liberal slang that they use against liberals to label liberals so that they can blame it on the liberals (ie. Antifa)

The GOPs push of election related conspiracies isn't designed to win over voters, its designed to make sure they get to decide who counts the votes, and consequently who's votes get to count.  Unless you missed all the times during the last election cycle where they tried to get mail-in ballots tossed, and passing laws to make it harder to do so in the future.  Couple that with closing voting locations in minority neighborhoods, and election integrity volunteers voter intimidation squadsand the end goal becomes pretty clear.

False. "Having republicans in the eleection infrastructure" will create corruption.

You may be presuming that such decision is voluntary. Furthermore, when someone doesn't vote at all, rather than votes by casting a blank ballot, it would seem to make it less clear whether the decision was voluntary or not, thereby diminishing election integrity.

Contrariwise, I'm aware of the existence of current case law such as Dixon v MD board, which holds that a person has a right not to vote as an expression of dissatisfaction with the choices given; I'm more making a political argument about what precepts should guide election law, even if a federal Amendment is required.

SpectroBoy: He quoted Rush


Which doesn't make his challenge unsound.

spongeboob: So if I vote twice I'm defending Democracy?


I probably do need to work on phrasing to rule that out. Maybe "Election integrity is diminished every time any adult US citizen doesn't cast their one ballot?"

houginator: Couple that with closing voting locations in minority neighborhoods, and election integrity volunteers voter intimidation squads and the end goal becomes pretty clear.


Which is precisely why I'm trying to hijack the concept of "integrity" out from under them.

Young people voted and it turns out they hate us. Double down.

The demise of the Republican Party is being caused by the Republican Party. Good riddance, but I'm very concerned about how desperate they are to hold on to their last bits of power on the way down.
