'America is under attack from within': Electors in six more states on Democratic lawmaker hit list

There was a time long ago, in 2016, when contesting an election was common practice, particularly among Democrats. Two years later, in 2018, failed Georgia gubernatorial candidate Stacy Abrams complained that the election was "fixed." Famously, the presidential contests in 2000 and 2004 were also contested by Democrats.

But that was then, and this is now.

Partisan Democrat Special Counsel Jack Smith indicted former President Donald Trump for alleged election interference, followed weeks later by an indictment in Georgia by George Soros-backed Fulton County DA Fani Willis, again for suspected election interference. Not happy to only target the former president, Willis set her sights on an additional 19 defendants.

What has slowly become that new norm is that elections, no matter how unfair or even illegal they may appear, may no longer be contested through legal means…that is unless you’re a Democrat.

According to Just the News, additional hammers are expected to drop soon, with Democrat officials in six swing states looking at the prosecution of alternate electors in their respective states.

Contained in the federal indictment of Trump addresses six unnamed "co-conspirators" with whom the former president allegedly did “conspire, confederate, and agree” to defraud the country. That is a fancy way of saying that those six “co-conspirators” were trying to ensure the election was conducted legally and constitutionally.

Contesting the results of an election is nothing new, and it is an art form that Democrats have perfected. They do not like when Republicans use their tactics.

In the first count of his indictment, Smith addressed alternate electors in seven states, calling them “fake” and “fraudulent.”

Just The News noted that those electors were Republicans chosen by their state parties to cast electoral votes for the Republican candidate (Trump) in the general election if that candidate won the state. It is alleged that the electors in question signed documents certifying they were Electoral College voters. Pennsylvania added a provision that their votes would only be valid if they were proven to be “duly elected and qualified electors.”

Each of the seven states where this occurred is handling their respective cases differently, with some seeking prosecution on a state level, some being referred to federal prosecutors, or some not taking any action.

For example, Willis is investigating 16 alternate electors, with eight being granted immunity in exchange for cooperation. Since none of those 16 alternate electors were named, it isn’t known whether they are among those indicted by a Fulton County grand jury along with Trump.

In Michigan, far-left Attorney General Dana Nessel, also a Soros plant, charged 16 electors in that state for allegedly submitting false certificates claiming to be legitimate electors—all eight face criminal charges, including forgery and conspiracy to commit election forgery. Nessel initially referred the charges to federal authorities, who declined to pursue charges immediately.

In New Mexico, Attorney General Hector Balderas, a Democrat, investigated the state’s five alternate electors in January 2022 and referred the case to federal prosecutors. There has been no announcement of any charges in the case. Two electors testified before Adam Schiff’s January 6 inquisition committee last year before Republicans took control of the House.

Pennsylvania Gov. Josh Shapiro, then acting as attorney general, did not pursue charges in the Keystone State against 20 alternate electors. This was because of the caveat that their votes would not count unless they were recognized as “duly elected and qualified electors.” Therefore, he determined they had not acted criminally.

In Wisconsin, while ten alternate electors are not currently under investigation, Gov. Tony Evers announced last week that he wants the state to pursue charges. That state’s attorney general, Josh Kaul, has not confirmed whether a current investigation is ongoing. However, he said he believes “that those who committed crimes with the goal of overturning the results of the election should be held accountable.”

In Georgia, Republicans are not taking Willis’s witch hunt lying down. They have launched a website outlining their actions in the aftermath of the 2020 general election.

Georgia Republican Party Chairman Josh McKoon told Just the News No Noise television program what steps the Georgia Republican Party, and Trump took in the aftermath of the election.

He said that President Trump and the former state Republican Party chairman “filed a lawsuit on December 4^th [2020], contesting the election, as they are allowed to do under Georgia law. They were guaranteed a legal hearing within 20 days of that filing. Ten days later, the deadline arrived to submit electoral votes.”

McKoon then outlined that had “those electoral votes […] not been submitted, the lawsuit would have been dismissed. He emphasized that the only way to protect Trump’s rights “was for the electors to meet and cast these votes. And it has happened before; it did happen in Hawaii [in 1960 Kennedy v Nixon], and was exactly the same set of circumstances, the exact same language being used.”

In the 1960 election, Hawaii was initially certified for then-Vice President Richard Nixon. However, Kennedy supporters filed a lawsuit, alleging election improprieties. The judge sided with the plaintiffs, and the state’s electoral votes were cast for Kennedy.

There is precedent, the law, and the Constitution on Trump’s side in his ability to contest the election. The only issue he faces is that he has an “R” after his name, rather than a “D.”
