Texas Governor Greg Abbott recently
announced that the Lone Star State’s effort
to clean up its voter rolls has resulted in more than 1 million names being
removed.
Since
Senate Bill 1 was signed into law in 2021, individuals who have moved out of
the state, are noncitizens, or who have passed away have been taken off voter
rolls. Indeed, thousands of noncitizens have been removed from the rolls. This,
of course, greatly angers Democrats, who fervently believe that non-residents,
non-citizens-- and the dead-- should be able to vote. As often as they like.
Abbott
released a statement saying, “Election integrity is essential to our democracy.
I have signed the strongest election laws in the nation to protect the right to
vote and to crackdown on illegal voting. These reforms have led to the removal
of over one million ineligible people from our voter rolls in the last three
years, including noncitizens, deceased voters, and people who moved to another
state.” Fascist! Hater! Far-right racist! How dare he try to prevent the dead
from voting! Is he trying to destroy our democracy?!
A
million names came off of one state’s voter rolls? And the 2020
presidential election was determined by as few as 50,000 total votes in just
three states?! And Democrats and pundits still claim the election was the most
secure in American history?! (Covers mouth, coughs while saying “bullshit!”)
That
claim might be slightly more credible if Democrats weren’t “freaking out over Republicans’ efforts to stop
illegal aliens from voting,” as The Gateway Pundit recently reported. Or if Michigan
Secretary of State Jocelyn Benson hadn’t issued a direct threat to any local
election officials who might choose not to certify the upcoming 2024 election
results in the event of fraud, saying, “We will come for you.” Or if states had honored the
request of RFK, Jr. to be removed from their ballots. Or if the California
Senate hadn’t passed a law banning voter ID in local elections.
Republicans’
pathetically tepid efforts to prevent Democrats from stealing elections in the
future apparently haven’t assuaged the fears of Democrats that the Bad Orange
Man could somehow win in 2024. Therefore, many are hoping and planning
for a quick return of COVID-19…and especially the accompanying
draconian lockdowns and mail-in voting that were the hallmarks of the previous
pandemic.
