Another 24 hours has passed and as I write this and send it out to you, ballots in Arizona, Nevada, Georgia, North Carolina, and Pennsylvania are STILL being counted, leaving the Office of the President undecided. <\/strong><\/p>\n

President Trump could still be re-elected as he is ahead in three states of the five states and the margins are getting closer and closer to less than 1% in all of these states. <\/strong><\/p>\n

President Trump has filed lawsuits to recount the votes in Wisconsin, that was called for Joe Biden with 20,000 votes separating the candidates. He has also filed a lawsuit in Michigan and Georgia, and Nevada for polling place illegalities and voter fraud. <\/strong><\/p>\n

Former Republican House Speaker Newt Gingrich, who engineered the GOP takeover of the House in 1994, on Wednesday urged President Trump to turn the battle over the 2020 presidential race into a war, filing a lawsuit “in every single state” if necessary. <\/strong><\/p>\n

I couldn’t agree more. <\/strong><\/p>\n

If President Trump does not initially win, this will be a blessing in disguise for ALL Americans because Trump’s lawsuits will finally expose the corruption and voter fraud that Republicans have complained about for years, but never had a candidate like Trump who is willing to take the fight to the Democrats with overwhelming, aggressive, legal (not lethal) force.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Donald Trump has the Combat Mindset<\/em> we teach students to demonstrate, when confronted with a lethal encounter: focused, overwhelming, controlled aggression. In Trump’s case it is a “legal” encounter involving what he believes is voter fraud. He will attack the Democrats with focused, overwhelming, controlled, legal aggression. <\/strong><\/p>\n

I have to agree with Trump’s claims of fraud. <\/strong><\/p>\n

So does New York Times best-selling author Kenneth R. Timmerman, the writer of “The Election Heist”<\/a><\/em> and other books. He was nominated for the Nobel Peace Prize in 2006. <\/strong><\/p>\n

Trump Is Right to Suspect Voter Fraud<\/h2>\n

I’ve been researching voter fraud since I was the Republican nominee for Congress in Maryland District 8 in 2012 and encountered defective voting machines in multiple counties in my district. I have drawn on that research for a new book, “The Election Heist,” which projects what I believe will be the Democrats’ playbook for this November.<\/p>\n

Democrats love to repeat that voter fraud is a myth conjured by right-wing nuts to justify the defeat of their candidates at the polls.<\/p>\n

But evidence of voter fraud is overwhelming. Anyone remember “Landslide Lyndon” Johnson, whose first election to the U.S. Senate was secured by stuffed ballot boxes conveniently discovered by his campaign manager?<\/p>\n

In 1994, Republican gubernatorial candidate Ellen Sauerbrey of Maryland was winning by close to 30,000 votes until well after midnight, until the Baltimore graveyards and vacant lots voted and gave the election to her opponent by 5,993 votes.<\/p>\n

More recently, former Sen. Al Franken of Minnesota owed his 312-vote victory against incumbent Sen. Norm Coleman in 2008 to 48,000 disputed votes. But, of course, this wasn’t voter fraud.<\/p>\n

Investigative reporter John Solomon recently cited<\/a> more than a dozen examples of voter fraud over the past two years, fraud that in many cases changed election results and led to criminal indictments and convictions. The schemes “ranged from old fashion ballot-box stuffing to absentee and mail-in ballot fraud,” as well as noncitizen voting and voter harvesting.<\/p>\n

While very serious, these are what I would call garden-variety voter fraud, essentially based on individual initiatives or at most a small group of co-conspirators with no access to sophisticated technology or logistics. Also in this category are the many thousands of double-votes cast by snowbirds in Florida, and others who have recently moved from one state to another.<\/p>\n

The president’s concern over mail-in ballots raises a much bigger issue, since a national system of mail-in balloting would be an open invitation to fraud, especially in states and counties with “dirty” voter rolls. A January report by Judicial Watch found 378 counties across America that had more registered voters than citizens of voting age. Judicial Watch successfully sued Los Angeles County in 2019, requiring them to remove 1.5 million<\/em> people from the voter roles because they had either moved out of the jurisdiction or were deceased.<\/p>\n

That’s the scale of the fraud the president is worried about.<\/p>\n

Under the mail-in ballot scheme Democrats want to impose, all registered voters would receive a ballot, whether they are dead or alive or still live in the jurisdiction. The question is, who will actually cast those ballots?<\/p>\n

Democrat legislators at the state and national level have made it exceptionally difficult for supervisors of elections to clean their voter rolls, citing the canard of “voter suppression.”<\/p>\n

And of course they’ll always find examples of when a legitimate voter was stricken from the rolls, most often because they haven’t voted in the last three national elections. To paraphrase a French saying, these exceptions prove the rule: Dirty voter rolls are an invitation to fraud.<\/p>\n

Mail-in ballots are very different from absentee ballots, which have been in place for many years in the majority of states for military and other voters who can’t or don’t want to show up at the polls. If anything, absentee ballots bear a greater risk of being rejected if the voter’s signature on the outside envelope doesn’t match the signature on record with the supervisor of election, a common occurrence with older voters who haven’t updated their signature in decades.<\/p>\n

In “The Election Heist<\/a>,” I look at these and other, less well-known examples of voter fraud that involve the hacking of electronic voting systems.<\/p>\n
