Democrat Judge Dismisses Lawsuit Seeking To Keep Noncitizens Off Arizona’s Voter Rolls

Published

on

On Friday a federal judge dismissed a lawsuit filed by a conservative group and an Arizona resident that sought to force election officials to ensure noncitizens aren’t registering to vote in the state.

Writing on behalf of the U.S. District Court for the District of Arizona, Judge Krissa Lanham, a Biden appointee, ruled that Strong Communities Foundation of Arizona (SCFA) and state resident Yvonne Cahill lacked standing to bring their legal challenge filed against Arizona’s 15 recorders last month. As The Federalist previously reported, that lawsuit alleged that the recorders “have failed to take the actions required by law to ensure that foreign citizens are removed from their voter rolls.”

“Plaintiffs are not entitled to a preliminary injunction because they have not made a sufficiently clear showing they have standing,” Lanham wrote. “Plaintiffs’ request raises no more than a ‘generalized grievance’ shared by every Arizona voter that elected officials must follow the law.”

SCFA and Cahill had asked the court to affirm existing voter list maintenance laws and issue an injunction requiring the state’s recorders to comply with them. They specifically argued that “federal law requires County Recorders to ‘perform list maintenance’ and to engage in ‘reasonable efforts’ to ensure that foreign citizens are not registered to vote.”

“Because it is illegal for foreign citizens to register to vote in federal elections, any foreign citizen who is registered to vote is ineligible,” the lawsuit reads.

Lanham noted that she would still deny plaintiffs’ injunction request “[e]ven if [they] had standing,”

Cackling Kamala And Tampon Tim Are Just Weird As Hell

Published

on

I just have to say it. You already know it. You feel it. Vice President Kamala Harris and her running mate, Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz, are creepy and, yes, just weird as hell. 

In the nearly three months since the Democrat Party elite pushed President Joe Biden off the reelection train and his dim-witted vice president took his place, Harris and her No. 2 have brought us a nonstop buffet of weird and creepy campaign moments. As have their leftist political allies and their corporate media PR agents. 

From Harris’ bizarre and cringy fake accents to the ticket’s bouts of explosive verbal diarrhea that not even “60 Minutes” can fix, the gruesome twosome are a political train wreck — and a campaign manager’s nightmare. 

Let Them Smoke Weed

Harris, who has seen support among black male voters sink so badly that former President Barack Obama has gone on a “Shame on ‘the Brothers’” tour, recently rolled out a pandering “Opportunity Agenda” for black men. Interestingly, the proposal includes legalizing the recreational use of marijuana and “ensuring Black entrepreneurs have access to the growing cannabis industry,” USA Today reports. 

My how things have seemingly changed. As former Congresswoman Tulsi Gabbard has pointed out, Harris has bragged about her tough-on-crime stance against weed possession. 

“She put over 1,500 people in jail for marijuana violations and then laughed about it when she was asked if she ever smoked marijuana,” Gabbard, who, like Harris, ran an unsuccessful campaign for the Democrat Party presidential

Michigan’s Second-Largest City Lost An Entire Tray Of Mail Ballots And Still Has No Clue Where They Went

Published

on

Grand Rapids, Michigan, has lost a tray of absentee ballots, City Clerk Joel Hondorp told The Federalist. The city is investigating but does not yet know where the ballots went.

“Voters were calling, saying, ‘Hey, we didn’t receive our ballots,’” Hondorp said. “There’s a tray of ballots that were set to be mailed out. Looks like it may have got to the post office, we’re trying to figure out where the disconnect is.”

A tray holds close to 300 ballots, according to Hondorp. His office is working with the United States Postal Service to investigate at what point the tray of ballots got lost. 

“We do ballot tracking with our mail vendor, and so we can kind of verify where a tray gets scanned into the system,” Hondorp said. “We’re investigating right now.”

Hondorp said his office has sent 100 replacement ballots to voters who did not receive theirs. If anyone submits duplicate ballots, he said his office would “spoil” one of the ballots so only one vote counts per voter.

“If for some reason this tray shows up somewhere, and then they get another ballot in the mail, we know which ballot to count so they don’t return two,” Hondorp said. “If two ballots happen to come back to us, we know we only keep one of them.”

A few ballots sometimes get lost in the mail, Hondorp said, but typically the number is not this high. “It doesn’t seem to be a whole tray in the past. We

GA Judge Rules Election Officials Must Rubber Stamp Results Even If They Are ‘Non-Sensical’

Published

on

A Georgia judge ruled Monday that election officials must certify election results even if the results show “more votes than voters.”

Fulton County Superior Court Judge Robert McBurney ruled that “no election superintendent (or member of a board of elections and registration) may refuse to certify or abstain from certifying election results under any circumstance,” even if there is a “non-sensical result.” McBurney did, however, agree that election superintendents have a responsibility to investigate discrepancies and are entitled to review election-related materials as part of this process.

Fulton County Board of Registration and Elections (FCBRE) member Julie Adams, who brought the suit, argued (as described by McBurney’s ruling) in part that “it is proper for her, as a co-election superintendent who has taken an oath to ‘prevent any fraud, deceit, or abuse’ to exercise discretion in certifying election results — a conclusion, which, if correct, would empower her to refuse to certify if she believed the results to be incorrect or not sufficiently reliable to merit certification.”

The Democratic Party of Georgia threatened Adams with legal action after she did not certify the results of the March presidential preference primary. Adams initially filed a suit in May seeking clarification about her role. Adams said she refused to certify the results after she was allegedly denied access to election-related documents and asked that the court clarify her role to be discretionary — meaning members should only certify the results once they are confident the election was administered lawfully — rather than
