Videos show conservative activists cheering on voter suppression: 'We need to stop those ballots from going out'
When conservatives gathered behind closed doors for conferences of the right-wing Council for National Policy, their talks had a common theme: Voter suppression.
Conservatives met for three days in February and another three in August, maskless regardless of Virginia state policies, to discuss election strategies and other goals, The Washington Post reports . One August speaker was Charlie Kirk, the founder of the college conservative group Turning Point USA. At one point, Kirk pinned college campus shutdowns on Democrats, and then called those purported decisions a "very foolish thing" because it's going to lose them opportunities to "harvest" left-leaning college students' votes, video of the event obtained by the Post reveals . "Please, keep the campuses closed, it's a great thing," he said.
Tom Fitton, president of the conservative group Judicial Watch, was more explicit. He alleged Democrats were "war-gaming" a plan to make House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) president, and used that as a call for conservative action against mail-in ballots. "We need to stop those ballots from going out, and I want the lawyers here to tell us what to do," Fitton said in video obtained by the Post . J. Christian Adams, a former Justice Department official, meanwhile told attendees to oppose mail-in voting and "be not afraid of the accusations that you're a voter suppressor, you're a racist and so forth."

I think that anyone who tries to interfere with or suppress voting should be deported to China where they could feel right at home.
The same should apply to voter fraud...as it's practiced by the dastardly Dems
Did Trump's vote fraud commission find any?
NO!
Like North Carolina?

Examples? And I want some that amount to more than .000001% of ballots cast, it needs to be statistically significant, not a number you just round off because there is no point in even including it.
The idea that Republicans would never try and cheat but Democrats would was always absurd. Cheating is a human condition and I would never rule it out, but if the state election boards do their job there will be little of it. People like Charlie Kirk and Ralph whats his face the Christian fanatic are completely untrustworthy.
And vice versa.......................................
Good on ya
And there is very little of it because our public servants that oversee the elections are honest, hard working people just trying to do their jobs and do them right (99.99% of the time, there is always that one...)
The amount of verifiable voter fraud in the US is so small it isn't even worth acknowledging. Honestly, tracking down the one one-millionth of a percent of fraudulent ballots is almost a waste of government resources.
Don't democrats want some Scouts decisions overturned?
Like Citizens United..... Yes, and if I recall, you want that one overturned as well.
So in other words, get out there and oppose mail in voting and when people tell you that is voter suppression, act dumb and say nuh uh....
