Supreme Court Allows Virginia to Remove
Noncitizens from Voter Rolls before Election

Original Article

Posted By: Dreadnought, 10/30/2024 10:28:17 AM

The Supreme Court ruled Wednesday that Virginia is entitled to remove noncitizen aliens from its voter rolls, siding with the commonwealth over lower courts less than a week out from the election. The order comes two days after Virginia attorney general Jason Miyares filed an emergency application, requesting that the Court stay an injunction that ordered Virginia to restore some 1,600 suspected noncitizens who are ineligible to vote to the state’s voter rolls. A federal appeals court upheld the injunction on Sunday, quickly prompting the attorney general to appeal to the Supreme Court.

An important victory for sanity in our election system. Now make it nationwide and require legal picture ID and the Democrat party will collapse.

Did I read this correctly? Did the SC response indicate that the leftists judges would have permitted voting by non-citizens? Shocking.

One has to wonder if Justices Sonia Sotomayor, Elena Kagan, and Ketanji Brown Jackson have ever looked at the Constitution of the United States. The three of them have proven that they were appointed to reinforce democrat initiatives rather than to determine if such initiatives conform to, or violate the Constitution. If they want to be lawmakers, they should be senators or congresscritters.

One would think that that Obambi, Biden and living dead Clinton judges would get tired of being slapped crazy because they fail over and over to follow the law. The law says no illegal can vote in national elections. It doesn't give exception for Black-Robed demigods to say otherwise.

President Trump's campaign really needs to make hay with this ruling. What better way than to come up with a commercial, not only highlighting how we have a problem with non citizens on voting rolls, but how the Demonrats DO NOT follow the law, as in the three "wise" Commiecrat appointed Supreme Court Justices who would've allowed the illegal voters to stay on the rolls! And another thing, the same commercial, or another, could point out how the Demonrats are massive liars when it comes to saying President Trump is dangerous, lawless, Hitler, etc.,.. Here is proof right before everyone's eyes on how the Bidet DOJ, and demonrat judges, reps, etc.,.. are the lawless ones! And for those who still watch the legacy media, maybe such a commercial would expose the Enemedia even more on their blatant disregard for the law, and truth in any way or form.

Removing suspected noncitizens would be wrong but are they only suspected noncitizens? If not removed and they voted they could be arrested but you couldn't remove their vote, only solution is redo the election.

The 90 day quiet period also needs to be reviewed. I understand not changing election laws at the last minute. However, Virginia was simply applying existing law. Basically, if an person self identifies as NOT a citizen on some government form, they can be removed from the voting rolls. The fact that the ACTION to remove them happens within 90 days of voting shouldn't matter. Plus, if a mistake was made, the person can produce proof of citizenship and vote provisionally. If their citizenship is confirmed, their vote counts. Sounds perfectly fair, doesn't it?

You don’t have to be a law school graduate to realize that non US citizens, who are citizens of other countries, should not be included on the US Voter Registration rolls and thus be allowed to vote In US elections, as it is a Federal felony crime for non US Citizens to vote in US elections. That’s just common sense. Unfortunately the leftist and progressive Democrats who will do or say anything to attain or keep political power have no problem with non citizens, including illegal aliens, registering and voting in US elections. The reason for that is that the leftist and progressive Democrats whose covert political agenda is to transform the USA into a future socialist utopia need as many voters as possible, including non citizens voting for them, to attain their mission agenda to transform the country into a socialist utopia.

Former President Trump is suing CBS News over a “60 Minutes” interview it broadcast with Vice President Harris earlier this month that he and his allies have claimed was edited to cast her in a positive light. The lawsuit, which seeks $10 billion in damages and was filed Thursday in U.S. District Court in the Northern District of Texas alleges the network engaged in “partisan and unlawful acts of election and voter interference through malicious, deceptive, and substantial news distortion.” “To paper over Kamala’s ‘word salad’ weakness, CBS used its national platform on 60 Minutes to cross the line from the exercise of judgment in reporting to deceitful, deceptive manipulation

The Washington Post poll of 1,004 registered voters reveals that Trump is leading Harris there 47% to 45%. Among that group, those who said they were likely to vote for Harris over Trump 47%-46%. The poll was conducted Oct. 24-28 and has a margin of error of 3.7%. Of those who responded, six out of every 10 voters view the state of the economy negatively, according to The Washington Post.

The short answer is yes. But they don't yet understand what it means. After years of watching trust in the news media slide down so much that POLITICIANS are now more trusted than journalists, it is dawning on executives and some journalists that people dislike them...they really really dislike them. But they don't yet understand why. They see the distrust of Americans as an indictment of Americans. We are irredeemable, deplorable, Nazis, and garbage. That sentiment is not directed merely at Trump supporters; it's aimed at every dissenting voice regardless of ideology. It is of course aimed at conservatives in the main because support for Trump is proof positive

Twenty-eight hours. That's all it took to turn around a one-minute campaign ad for Donald Trump after Joe Biden's weird intervention on Tuesday. While Trump himself had all sorts of fun yesterday flipping Biden's script on his supporters being "garbage," his new campaign spot hammers both Biden and Kamala Harris for their campaign of "hate" against the American people. Or half of us, anyway: That may be an effective closing message -- assuming they can get it on the air in time to matter. Getting the turn-around in that fast of a time frame certainly helps, of course. One minor quibble: Why not include the actual video

Thus far, we've avoided focusing on single polls in the presidential election. Having been burned by that approach in the past, we have instead watched trends across aggregated poll data to ensure we don't get ahead of our skis. The Quinnipiac poll released late yesterday justifies an exception. First, we're coming down to final iterations in the closing days of the campaign, where pollsters presumably will do their best to ensure accuracy compared to the election outcomes. And second, this is the first time Quinnipiac has shown Donald Trump with a lead -- any lead -- in Pennsylvania (hat tip to A.W. Guerra in Thursday's Wednesday's Final Word):

GOLDSBORO, North Carolina — Early vote numbers in North Carolina show the electorate skewing older and whiter, compared to the state’s voter registration, a red flag for Democrats who need Black voters to turn out in heavy numbers if Kamala Harris is going to flip this state. As of Wednesday, Black voters make up 18 percent of the electorate in early voting, and some Democratic operatives said they must bump that up to about 20 percent for Harris to be competitive statewide. In 2020, Black voters were 19 percent of the electorate, when Donald Trump narrowly won the state. And Democrats acknowledge that without a swing in their favor

You probably knew it was coming. President Donald Trump -- the master of trolling -- would have a good response to Joe Biden calling Trump supporters "garbage." Indeed, he did, sitting in a garbage truck on Wednesday, calling out Biden for insulting millions of Americans and having a lot of fun in the process. He already showed he has a talent for this with his McDonald's success. That was about serving the people. This time it's about cleaning up Washington. What a great symbolic move it is. How great was it? CNN even had to cut away to cover it, rather than talking about Kamala Harris.

Joe Biden narrowly won Nevada in 2020 by just over 30,000 votes. The state has strong union support for Democrats but anyone expecting a clear Harris victory there this year might be in for a surprise. Hometown reporter Jon Ralston estimates that about 60% of the vote in the state is already in and so far Republicans have a big advantage. We are at 790,000 ballots recorded, or 39 percent of registered voters. So I’d guess about 60 percent of the vote is in, maybe a little less. We are going to get at least 75 percent of the vote in before Election Day and maybe as much as 90 percent

It finishes by noting that Walz’s education expertise was one of the reasons Harris selected him as her running mate. The ad was paid for by Restoration PAC. I broke the story of Lozenski’s call for the overthrow of the U.S. here at National Review Online about a month ago.

ABC has sparked wild conspiracy theories after mistakenly airing election results for Pennsylvania. The results appeared on the ticker along the bottom of the screen during a broadcast of the Formula 1 Mexico Grand Prix by ABC local affiliate WNEP-TV on Sunday. It showed Kamala Harris taking the state with 52 percent of the votes, while Donald Trump's share was 47 percent. It instantly prompted claims of election rigging on social media, with one person tweeting: 'The cheat is on.' WNEP-TV said that the numbers came up on the screen in 'error' and that they had been 'randomly generated' as part of a test ahead of election night on November 5.
