Election Interference via Executive Order? - SunsetBengal - 05-07-2024 Based upon the items listed in this article, it sure seems like that may be the case. https://www.msn.com/en-us/news/politics/biden-voter-registration-meeting-raises-eyebrows-on-capitol-hill-election-interference/ar-BB1lWYVr?ocid=msedgntp&pc=U531&cvid=9dbf35afb60a4f83a8c336adf835ff31&ei=64 Quote:House Republicans investigating the Biden administration ahead of the 2024 election are raising concerns over revelations from documents reported by the Washington Examiner about a key meeting between the White House and left-wing activists on voter registration. RE: Election Interference via Executive Order? - NATI BENGALS - 05-07-2024 Voter registration is election interference?

See the republicans don't have a ground team to do these things because so much money is going to Trump's legal defense (for one reason) so if the Democrats are being smart and registering people to vote , encouraging people to vote, spending money on getting out the vote then it MUST be election interference because anything that might make Trump lose is election interference. It's obvious. RE: Election Interference via Executive Order? - XenoMorph - 05-07-2024 (05-07-2024, 01:58 PM)GMDino Wrote: Yes. Lots of New registrations in areas with a lot of new illegal immigrants RE: Election Interference via Executive Order? - GMDino - 05-07-2024 (05-07-2024, 02:01 PM)XenoMorph Wrote: Lots of New registrations in areas with a lot of new illegal immigrants Nah. That's too obvious. They'll probably bus them to all the really deep red areas to swing those elections. Of course they'd be caught too.

So now the right has a problem with more registered voters in our representative democracy? That’s kind of the whole point of a representative democracy is it not? When a political party is scared of more people registering to vote in a democracy… It makes me think there might be a problem with that party. In Ohio party affiliation has nothing to do with voter registration until you go to vote in a partisan primary and ask for a specific party ballot. Freaking ridiculous the right wing disdain for democracy.

There were only activist groups on behalf of the democratic party in on the Zoom meeting, thus the "approved" groups. If they are funding these efforts with money contributed by Americans from both sides of the aisle, then both sides need to share the benefit of these "registration drives".

One of the two major political parties in my country has a problem with people registering to vote. This is a democracy. How does that make any sense? To be against registering new voters? Dictator/authoritarian type vibes. And we have all seen how willing Trump voters are to go down that path. Party affiliation has nothing to do with registering to vote. I could be mistaken. But party affiliation has no bearing unless it is a closed primary.

Yeah, it pisses me off, too that one of the two major political parties wants to act sneaky and underhanded in an attempt to gain an edge by using taxpayer dollars contributed by folks from both sides.

So is it hypocrisy that we haven't seen the outrage from the conservatives here, where multiple state legislatures are doing all they can to interfere and block minority voting? What's worse? Making it more difficult for a specific portion of the voting public to vote at all, where they generally represent votes for the other team or encouraging people to register to vote regardless of their party affiliation? Ok I'll just come out and say it......Outrage over this this is the EPITOME of hypocrisy, but red legislatures limiting voting options and voting rights is "ok". Note: Registered Republican here.

I accept that as proof there is some common sense left over there. RE: Election Interference via Executive Order? - Belsnickel - 05-07-2024 I am curious about the context of it all. Given that the sourcing came from the Washington Examiner, a publication with a, let's say tentative grasp on the facts, I have some skepticism. In looking over the EO in question, I don't see any issues with it, really: https://www.whitehouse.gov/briefing-room/presidential-actions/2021/03/07/executive-order-on-promoting-access-to-voting/ So I would like to know more about the context behind this news article. RE: Election Interference via Executive Order? - Luvnit2 - 05-07-2024 Board members lose credibility with each cry of No Democracy as they cheer on an attempt to keep Trump off the ballot and put him in jail. Democrats think independents are just plain stupid and won't notice the 3rd world country crap going after Trump. They have most of the eggs in the let's get Trump basket. But it appears the idiots like Bragg and Garland have turned the basket upside down. Less than 6 months to see if Democrats can convince voters who can't afford groceries and ret watching illegal immigrants get free housing and groceries.

Interesting how the meaning of "election interference" has expanded and diluted since Trump considered seizing voting machines in swing states, then instead sent 7 slates of false electors and a mob to the Capitol to change a valid election outcome.

And Republicans think Independents are stupid and will ignore Trump’s criminality just like they do. So we’re at an impasse RE: Election Interference via Executive Order? - BigPapaKain - 05-08-2024 (05-08-2024, 01:21 AM)pally Wrote: And Republicans think Independents are stupid and will ignore Trump’s criminality just like they do.

RE: Election Interference via Executive Order? - SunsetBengal - 05-08-2024 Smoke beginning to accumulate, subpoena issued in the matter. https://www.msn.com/en-us/money/smallbusiness/biden-administration-receives-subpoena-over-inappropriate-swing-state-voter-registration-push/ar-BB1lZDnL?ocid=msedgntp&pc=U531&cvid=fd2016ca58ba45429c0ab95de6c75eb5&ei=17 Quote:On Tuesday, the House Committee on Small Business subpoenaed the Small Business Administration, claiming that the Biden administration was possibly violating the Constitution by funneling resources to register voters in the swing state of Michigan. RE: Election Interference via Executive Order? - Belsnickel - 05-08-2024 I really do think that the biggest problem right now is that Congressional approval ratings are abysmal and there is a large portion of the country that does not see Congress as an entity functioning in good faith. I mean, the spread on the approval polling average, the SPREAD, is over 50 percentage points meaning there are over 50% more people in the country that disapprove of what Congress is doing than approve of it. We should not at all be surprised at this sort of thing right now. |
