Electoral Science Deniers

Scientists are finally starting to figure it out: there is no way to make democracy work.

That is why the Founding Fathers of America didn’t even try to make a democracy but rather a representative republic with serious checks and balances on both the government itself and the power of the people to manipulate said government.

From an article in Tech Science Daily:

“Denmark’s 2022 national election came down to a single seat, even though its proportional voting system was designed to make party representation closely match the vote. That outcome points to a deeper mathematical problem: no electoral system can always preserve local winners, guarantee proportional national results, and keep parliament at a fixed size.

Researchers from the University of Cambridge and the University of Copenhagen reached that conclusion after analyzing proportional and first-past-the-post systems. Their work shows that every method of electing a national legislature requires compromises, most often among regional representation, proportionality, and the number of parliamentary seats.”

Well duh. It mirrors life, and it is impossible to create a truly just and equitable system in life. The will-o-the-wisp that liberals have pursued for over a hundred years now is a truly fair and equal society, and it is just not mathematically possible.

The best we can do is make rules and stick to them.

Of course, politics is now about so much money, and so much power over people’s lives, that the parties — particularly those on the Left, where they are not constrained by a moral or religious code — will do anything to win, and if that means subverting the rules set in place, so be it. They see them as suggestions made by tired old white men anyway.

With so many trying to subvert the rules, is it any wonder politics is such dirty business?

ANOTHER DEMOCRAT BALLOT SCANDAL: Former NJ Mayor Gina LaPlaca and Husband Hit With New Criminal Charges for Forging Signatures to Fraudulently Get on Democratic Primary Ballot

They can’t win without CHEATING! The modern Democrat Party is completely LAWLESS.

Former Lumberton Township Mayor and current Committeewoman Gina LaPlaca, along with her husband, Democratic operative Jason Carty, are facing a new round of criminal charges after prosecutors say they submitted fraudulent signatures to place LaPlaca on the June Democratic primary ballot for the Lumberton Township Committee.

Burlington County Prosecutor LaChia L. Bradshaw’s office announced the charges this week. An investigation found that multiple people whose names and purported signatures appeared on LaPlaca’s nominating petition never signed it and never authorized anyone to sign on their behalf. Without those fake signatures, LaPlaca would not have had enough valid signatures to qualify for the ballot at all.

LaPlaca, 47, signed a sworn affidavit claiming she had “personally circulated the petition” and that every signature was in the voter’s own handwriting. Investigators determined her husband Carty, 49, also collected signatures. The petition was submitted to the Lumberton Township Municipal Clerk by Carty.

The charges:

  • LaPlaca faces fourth-degree making a false statement under oath, third-degree knowingly filing a false petition, two counts of third-degree tampering with public records or information, and fourth-degree falsifying or tampering with records.
  • Carty faces third-degree knowingly filing a false petition, two counts of third-degree tampering with public records or information, and fourth-degree falsifying or tampering with records.

Both are scheduled to appear in Superior Court in Mount Holly on September 21.

Official Burlington County results show LaPlaca finishing dead last in the three-candidate race for two committee seats. She received just 323 votes, or 13.03 percent.

HOUSE GOP TURNS UP THE HEAT: Vendor Ordered to Turn Over Records After New Jersey Registered 6,600 Noncitizens — and Hundreds Actually Cast Ballots

House Republicans are demanding answers from the technology contractor at the center of New Jersey’s explosive voter-registration scandal after state officials acknowledged that roughly 6,600 people who identified themselves as noncitizens were nevertheless added to the voter rolls, and approximately 400 of them later cast ballots.

The House Judiciary Committee and the Committee on House Administration sent a formal oversight letter to IDEMIA CEO Matt Cole on Tuesday, seeking documents and communications that could reveal who knew what, when they knew it, and why the problem was not disclosed publicly for two years.

Judiciary Chairman Jim Jordan (R-OH), Administration Chairman Bryan Steil (R-WI), Oversight Subcommittee Chairman Jeff Van Drew (R-NJ), and Elections Subcommittee Chair Laurel Lee (R-FL) signed the three-page demand.

More Democrat Election Tricks: Milwaukee Election Officials Blame “Human Error” After 5 of 9 USB Drives Arrive to Central HQ WITHOUT Election Results

Milwaukee is at it again.

In the early hours of Wednesday morning, as Wisconsin primary results were still coming in, Milwaukee Election Commission Executive Director Paulina Gutierrez admitted that five of the nine USB flash drives delivered from the city’s central count facility to the county contained audit logs instead of the actual election results.

“It’s a human error,” Gutierrez said. When asked by WISN 12 if it was as simple as somebody pressing the wrong button, she replied, “Correct.”

Officials were forced to return to the operations center at Central Count to re-download the correct results from five machines. Those results then had to be transported back to the Milwaukee County Courthouse for re-uploading. Gutierrez said nearly 15,000 ballots were still outstanding at the time of the admission.

Read that again: on five of the nine USB drives used in a critical election-night transfer, officials copied the wrong files.

James O’Keefe Releases ANOTHER Shocking Undercover Video From Michigan Showing Him Asking “Voters” About Duplicate Absentee Envelopes For Same Person

On Election Day, James O’Keefe was on the ground in Michigan, preparing to expose voter fraud, which is commonly found in a state where Jocelyn Benson, the nation’s most dishonest Secretary of State, is administering elections.  On the day before the election, our Detroit 2020 Election Inspection leadership team (Phani Mantravadi, Yehuda Miller, and Patty McMurray) spoke with James O’Keefe to help him identify some of the hot spots in Detroit as well as surrounding areas that are also ripe for fraud.

O’Keefe’s first bombshell video that went viral on Saturday afternoon was based on my exclusive report, published on the Gateway Pundit on May 19, 2026, featuring six non-citizens on Michigan’s voter rolls who are also on the DHS Worst of the Worst Criminals list, including Dearborn resident Afshin Masheli, a convicted rapist who’s voted several times in Michigan’s election.

According to our research, the U.S. has been unable to deport the convicted rapist, Afshin Masheli, back to Iran. In his latest bombshell video, O’Keefe mentions the Gateway Pundit’s reporting on the Worst of the Worst non-citizens voting in Michigan as he features Masheli, who, according to Check My Vote (an online service that’s tied to Michigan’s voter rolls, created by Phani Mantravadi), voted in 3 of Michigan’s federal and state elections. In O’Keefe’s undercover video, Masheli can be seen speaking with an undercover journalist at his front door, as he arrogantly admits that he was getting ready to vote in Michigan’s primary election later that day.

On Sunday afternoon, James O’Keefe dropped a teaser on X that seemed to imply he was about to drop something even bigger than Saturday’s bombshell:

“Time to raise the stakes,” he wrote, adding, “Tomorrow.”

Insane: MSNOW National Security Reporter Horrified That the Trump DOJ is Stopping Illegals From Voting

This week on MSNOW, their national security reporter David Rohde seemed to express shock and horror that the Trump DOJ is trying to make sure tha illegals don’t vote in our elections.

He refers to illegals voting as a ‘Trumpian conspiracy theory’ even though just last week it was revealed that more than 6,000 illegals were on the voter rolls in the state of New Jersey.

This is a window into the mind of the left. They really want illegals to be able to vote and they’re not particularly shy about showing it.

Transcript via NewsBusters:

DAVID ROHDE: More pe- He would not bring- well, the midterm elections are coming. The Justice Department-

RUHLE: This has been your big thing.

ROHDE: -the Justice Department sent election observers to Michigan for the primary last week. And before that happened, they informed election clerks across the country that they would be arrested and prosecuted federally if they allowed non-citizens to vote.

That is an astonishingly rare thing that happens in the U.S. It’s a giant, frankly, Trumpian conspiracy theory that there’s all these people voting. So whether he’s acting or not, it’s just not acceptable that that’s how, you know, and nothing happened, they sort of watched.

But there’s tremendous worry about what will the FBI do on election day? What will the Attorney General do? What will the Director of National Intelligence- given President Trump’s- We just had four judges testifying the other day, and they were asked – judges, federal judges! – who won the 2020 election. They’re afraid to say it was Joe Biden. This is a huge alarm for our democracy.

Election Integrity Is Not Voter Suppression

The political left has developed a remarkably simple response to almost every proposed election safeguard: Call it voter suppression.

Require identification at the polls? Voter suppression. Verify citizenship during registration? Voter suppression. Correct inaccurate registration records? A voter “purge.” Adjust early-voting schedules? An assault on minority voters.

Different policies addressing different aspects of election administration are bundled together as parts of a national conspiracy to prevent minorities and Democrats from voting. Motive is assumed, discriminatory effect is declared, and accusation substitutes for evidence.

Citizenship is the foundation of our electoral system. Only American citizens may vote in federal elections. Investigators have identified serious anomalies in registration records nationwide. When government refuses reasonable verification or correction of demonstrably ineligible records, it leaves the basic qualification for voting inadequately enforced.

That principle is at the center of the Safeguard American Voter Eligibility Act, commonly called the SAVE America Act. The House-passed legislation would require documentary proof of citizenship when registering for federal elections and photo identification when voting.

Opponents often portray the bill as requiring every prospective voter to possess a passport. That is not what it says.

Acceptable documentation includes identification indicating citizenship; a valid U.S. passport; certain military records; photo identification showing a U.S. birthplace; or photo identification accompanied by a birth, naturalization or other recognized citizenship record.

An ordinary driver’s license establishes identity and lawful presence but not necessarily citizenship. Legally present noncitizens may obtain licenses, including REAL ID-compliant licenses. Those issued to people with temporary lawful status are limited-term, generally expiring with their authorized stay — or within one year when no expiration date is specified. The relevant question is whether citizenship is indicated or a government agency has otherwise verified it.

The act requires states to accept applications from married voters and others whose names differ from their citizenship documents when additional documentation or an affidavit establishes the previous name.

Billionaire heiress who backed Mamdani now shoveling cash to House Dems in hopes of party takeover

Billionaire heiress Elizabeth Simons is pouring hundreds of thousands of dollars into the Democratic Party’s campaign to retake the House — even as she bankrolls the socialist causes and candidates that have Democrats’ establishment leaders increasingly on edge.

Simons, who previously cut a $250,000 check to a super PAC backing Mayor Zohran Mamdani, has donated $354,000 to the Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee — the party’s chief House campaign arm — and thousands more to individual House candidates this election cycle.

The donations, ironically, put Simons behind the same Democratic leadership forces trying to prevent the party’s increasingly powerful progressive wing from taking over.

“I can see why a lot of the very woke left is lining up with Hakeem [Speaker Jeffries] because the goal is winning the House,” said one longtime Democratic fundraiser.

The DCCC is headed by Rep. Suzan DelBene (D-Wash.), a member of the party’s centrist New Democrat Coalition, which is the under guidance of House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries, who is positioned to take power if Dems snatch back the House. Republicans rule by a narrow 218-212 majority.

Simons is hardly a conventional Democratic establishment donor — she has has poured millions into progressive education initiatives while backing candidates like Mamdani.

America First Legal Takes Fight to Fix Botched 2020 Census to Supreme Court – Statistical Tricks Favored Blue States and Robbed GOP States of Electoral Votes

America First Legal has taken its landmark challenge against the deeply flawed 2020 Census straight to the U.S. Supreme Court, demanding that the justices reverse a lower court’s dismissal and force accountability for a count that systematically undercounted red states while padding blue ones.

On August 7, AFL, co-founded by Trump senior advisor Stephen Miller, filed a jurisdictional statement with the Supreme Court. The group is asking the high court to hear its case and overturn the U.S. District Court for the Middle District of Florida’s ruling that dismissed the lawsuit.

A divided three-judge panel had thrown out the case in July, claiming the plaintiffs lacked standing and that the challenge came too late. Judge Steven Merryday issued a blistering dissent, warning that “If the census and the vote are not right, nothing that follows from them is right.”

This is not some technical accounting dispute. The 2020 Census, conducted under the Biden-Harris administration’s early influence after Trump left office, abandoned the Constitution’s clear command of an “actual Enumeration.”

Instead, the Census Bureau leaned heavily on statistical imputation and other gimmicks, filling in missing people with made-up data and injecting “noise” under the guise of privacy.

The result? Florida was undercounted by approximately 3.48 percent, or roughly 760,000 people. Other red and purple states took similar hits, while several blue states were overcounted.

Those distortions directly translated into lost congressional seats and Electoral College votes for Republican-leaning states. Florida, already a powerhouse of growth and Trump support, was shortchanged representation it earned.

Dimwit Kamala Harris Warns that SAVE Act Will Force People to Prove Who They Are to Vote — How Are Democrats Supposed to Win?

How are dead Democrats supposed to produce an ID to vote?

Dimwit Kamala Harris, likely the densest candidate to ever run for president, a woman who struggled to complete full sentences without some nonsensical rambling diatribe, spoke out against the SAVE Act on Friday.

Unfortunately, she thought it was a good idea to post her thoughts on social media.
Big mistake.

She obviously is unaware of her limitations.

On Friday, Kamala Harris warned Americans that the SAVE America Act will force people to prove who they are to vote!
The horror!

Kamala Harris:  This president is trying to push this SAVE Act, which basically would require that for people to register to vote, you’re gonna have to have proof of who you are through a passport, which a lot of Americans don’t have, or a birth certificate. Same point, obstacles to make it difficult for you to register to vote.

And then you got the states. 19 states have already passed laws to make it more difficult to vote, and the ones that that haven’t passed a law are doing it in practice in many places around our country. Why? ‘Cause they’re scared of you. They are scared of your power, the power you have, the power of your voice through your vote.

So the work we have to do right now, let’s make sure everybody, one, check your voter registration status ’cause you know they’ve been purging the rolls. Make sure you register to vote. Even if you thought you are, just make sure. Next, let’s make sure that everybody we know is registered to vote if they’ve not registered before. And then let’s encourage everyone, vote early where they can, vote by mail where they can, and vote.

It’s gonna make a difference.
