The 2022 Midterm Elections have offered many disagreeable surprises for Republicans this yr, together with the chance they might not take the Home. One of the crucial surprising races is going on in Washington’s 3rd Congressional District.
MAGA Republican Joe Kent, who upset By no means Trumper Jamie Herrera-Beutler within the August 8th Major, is presently trailing far left Democrat Marie Gluesenkamp Perez by 2% with about 30% of the vote nonetheless out. This was a district Donald Trump carried by 4 factors in 2020. Whereas most of remaining ballots ought to favor Kent as a result of they have been turned in on election day, he suspects election officers could also be as much as no good.
Kent went on Steve Bannon’s “Struggle Room” podcast Thursday to offer updates on the election outcomes. When Bannon requested why poll counting was taking so lengthy, Kent offered this reply:
“Greatest case, they’re simply making an attempt to demoralize us. Worst case, there’s some sleight of hand happening behind the scenes,” Kent mentioned.
The native media is dismissing his assertion as a conspiracy idea. The Gateway Pundit, nonetheless, has produced many insightful articles detailing suspicious election exercise throughout the nation. The drop and roll particularly was in full impact this election cycle. We additionally know Clark County officers in Nevada can’t be trusted with correct counts. Adam Laxalt is probably going toast and who is aware of with Joe Lombardo. Maricopa County shenanigans additionally occurred this yr similar to in 2020.
Kent has extra purpose to be suspicious. The 2004 Washington Gubernatorial Election involving Democrat Christine Gregoire and Republican Dino Rossi was arguably probably the most corrupt election this century. Rossi not solely was forward within the preliminary vote, but in addition gained the primary recount. Officers then magically found further votes in a second recount achieved by hand and Gregoire “gained” by 129 votes. The Democrats who run Washington State haven’t disappeared and solely a naïve idiot would belief them to ship trustworthy leads to a razor-thin race.
America is in dire want of great electoral reform. Mail-in balloting is so notoriously unreliable that even Jimmy Carter raised considerations over potential fraud. This technique of voting needs to be abolished utterly. Moreover, each poll should be counted inside hours, not days. If France can accomplish this, so can America. Nationwide Voter ID can also be important.
Kent’s race could show the distinction between both Republicans or Democrats controlling the Home. Time to hope for a transparent victory exterior the margin of fraud.
