Every aspect of American life is built on the bedrock of trustworthy elections— an indispensable right that gives citizens a say in the direction of the country, allowing the will of the people to guide our government and be reflected in our laws. Safeguarding elections is a cause rooted in the principles of ordered liberty and individual empowerment.
An illegal voting Democrat cancels a legitimate vote. This is a threat to our sovereignty. I trust that election integrity will be a priority under the Trump administration . But the burden of this really falls to the individual states.
You are absolutely right, Fred. Fortunately, Fred, the Republicans in NC have gained control of the NC State Board of Elections. They are engaged in various election integrity efforts already. That is a vast improvement on the socialists who were quite content to allow the system to accommodate all the fraud their supporters were committing.
