California Is Blocking a Federal Audit of Its Voter Rolls

California allows first-time voters to register using forms of ID that most Americans would find surprising, including:

-Gym membership card
-Employer ID card
-Credit or debit card
-Prescription drug label
-Insurance card (California provides free health coverage to undocumented immigrants)

Full list: https://t.co/BvfviJsYG8

This is permitted when a voter fails to provide a Social Security number or driver’s license at registration. Our office believes this policy deserves a closer look.

We also have serious concerns about how California maintains its voter rolls. There are open questions about whether the state is promptly removing deceased voters, people who have moved, and individuals convicted of disqualifying felonies.

On top of that, California allows third parties to collect and turn in ballots on voters’ behalf (a practice known as ballot harvesting) with few restrictions. This makes it difficult to track who actually received, completed, and submitted each ballot.

For over a year, the Department of Justice has been trying to audit California’s voter rolls. Federal law gives the Attorney General the authority to review state voter files and confirm that only eligible U.S. citizens are voting in federal elections.

@AAGDhillon sent California a letter explaining our legal authority. California refused to comply, claiming state privacy laws block the review, an argument that does not hold up because those laws don’t apply to the federal government in this context. We’ve sued California in federal court, and the case is before the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals.

If California genuinely wants voters to trust its elections, it should open its records, not fight to keep them closed.

What are they afraid of?

58 years ago today, Robert F. Kennedy's assassination was the first act of Palestinian terrorism on American soil.
Sirhan Sirhan’s diary made his motive crystal clear: ‘RFK must die' due to his support for israel. Sirhan chose the 1st anniversary of the Six Day War to kill RFK.

40% accurate signatures when most signatures these days are scribbles.

Yea, they’re stuffing ballots by the millions in California.

The only ingredient needed = TIME

This is really the smoking gun

It’s not surprising the Democrats would outperform Republicans in the mail-in ballots

But it makes zero sense that Raman would dramatically outperform Bass

Given that Raman herself was crying on election night, yet the betting markets were already predicting she would make it through, it is clear that the fix was in

And I don’t think she was part of it

I think the power behind the scenes that runs the DNC had made the decision

Scott Pelley really is cosplaying Ron Burgundy here. To believe delivering the news to being an airline pilot. What an idiot.

[Brent Baker 🇺🇲🇺🇦 🇮🇱 @BrentHBaker]

Scott Pelley says Bari Weiss needs to be removed from CBS News because she, not he and CBS News, are biased: “She brings an ideology into CBS News where that is just anathema.” And he equates running CBS News to flying a 747.
@LuluGNavarro, @NYTimes The Interview podcast host: “Do you think Barry Weiss needs to be removed?”
Pelley: “Oh, gosh, yes. She’s a lovely person. And her Free Press organization that she founded has been very successful. She’s proven that, great for her. But television’s not her thing. She brings an ideology into CBS News where that is just anathema. And so it’s a terrible fit. It’s probably not her fault. But it’s just a terrible fit. She doesn’t know television. She doesn’t understand how it works. She doesn’t have management experience for a large organization like CBS News. So yes, I do think that we would be far better off without her. Maybe she goes back to the Free Press and has a sterling career. But this is like somebody walking up to me and saying, there’s a 747. There are 400 people on it. We need you to fly it to Paris. I’m going to decline because I don’t have a clue.”

Today is the 82nd anniversary of D-Day.

The Greatest Generation fought hard to save Europe from the inhumane ideology of the German Nazis

They would have deserved to grow old in prosperous & peaceful societies. Sadly, communist subversion & mass-immigration ruined that prospect

@JoePompliano It’s not even a real country anyways.

[Western Lensman @WesternLensman]

Tapper: What would you say to a Republican who says if a Republican combat veteran had a Nazi tattoo, you wouldn’t be so forgiving?

Carville: It’s true. I would say you're exactly right.

About sums it all up.

Democrats don't actually believe Donald Trump is a Nazi.

If they did, they'd be voting for him.

[Fusilli Spock @awstar11]

Eric Swalwell must be fucking furious watching the Dems continue to support Platner for roughly the same thing he did but with a Nazi tattoo.

[RNC Research @RNCResearch]

Maine Wire reporter, Steve Robinson on Graham Platner:

“He’s proven himself to be a pathological liar...The oyster business, totally fake...Look at the date that his website for his fake oyster business was created, it was created after Graham for Maine, his Senate website.”

[Magills @magills_]

I just want the government to provide free health care and if a few Republican women have to get beat up to make that happen then so be it.

[exi(s)t @theleftislying]

Fetterman has turned out to be a gem. Dems will push him out next cycle though

[Karli Bonne’ 🇺🇸 @KarluskaP]

Sen. John Fetterman when asked about Graham Platner, he said who P hustle? The reporter with a puzzled and perturbed look on her face replied: is that what you call him Fetterman replied: no that’s what he calls himself. 🤣

@SirajAHashmi Send in Talarico

[Nate Silver @NateSilver538]

Keep in mind that if you're defending Platner at this point you're signing up for 5 more months of defending an obvious pathological liar.

[Magills @magills_]

Just sent $100 to the Platner campaign to keep him in the race.

NEW from @dailycaller on the NYT's catch and kill operation:

- A source tells @wupton that the NYT had two women prepared to make sexual assault allegations against Platner.
- Those details were revealed to Fifield, presumably to make her feel more comfortable coming forward
- They never made it into the story, allegedly being removed at the behest of NYT editors and Platner's lawyers.
- The Platner campaign was originally only given two hours to respond, but that stretched into 24 hours, contrary to what interview subjects were told
