After the strange and unusual occurrences around the 2020 election, it is more important than ever that we prevent fraud and fishy activity in the election that’s coming up this November.
Republican National Chairman Michael Whatley, whose emphasis on election integrity in 2020 in his home state of North Carolina helped Donald Trump to win that hotly contested battleground state. Whatley has applauded recent rulings protecting election integrity and calling rulings like it “a crucial victory for election integrity and voter confidence.” Whatley as the leader of the RNC has facilitated the filing of additional lawsuits in 23 states to enhance election integrity as posted on protecthevote.com.
In 2020 Pennsylvania allowed 2.7 million mailed-in ballots without any verification of signature or requirement of a witness or notary.
Poll watchers traditionally safeguarded election integrity by watching what happened at precincts as people voted in person. Donald Trump and other Republicans repeatedly win the in-person voting by landslides, only to have the elections taken away from them based on millions of ballots cast in a process that bypasses poll watching.
Ballot harvesting and drop-box ballot dumping combine the most unverified millions of mail-in ballots to overwhelm the voters who cast their ballots in person on Election Day. There should be transparency as to who cast these mail-in ballots and what their alleged signatures look like, but candidates are denied any way to protect against fraudulent voting practices by opponents when states like Pennsylvania have these rules.
The RNC also sued Arizona and Michigan, requiring them to perform signature matching on mail-in ballots. Without signature matching, after all, Democrats can send hundreds of thousands of mail-in ballots using hired operatives while bypassing the voters.
All of our states need serious measures to prevent ballot fraud in the upcoming election. After all, the American Republic depends on free and fair elections for the continued strength and protection of liberty in our great nation.
