I was pleased to see that President Trump was moving forward with an executive order to initiate the process of removing mail-in ballots from future elections. This topic came up during the Russian talks, specifically with Putin, where they discussed the problem that all democracies face in not having secure elections. With so much at stake, it should always be assumed that election fraud will occur if there are not tight controls in place on the process. No matter where in the world those elections are taking place. Cheating is endemic to the human race among those who are too lazy to compete. And there are always lots of those people in any society. And in America, where laziness is encouraged, of course, there will be a large sector of the population that will be inclined to cheat to get their people elected. There is always a lot of money and power at stake in elections, so we should always assume that cheating will be present unless we are vigilant in preventing it. And now we have a lot of proof that the mail-in process does not have honest people in it, and that cheating was part of the anticipated vote count, which we saw in the 2020 election that we still have not solved. Mail-in ballots continued to be a problem in the 2024 election, but Trump had such a significant lead that Democrats couldn’t overcome him in state-to-state races. As I pointed out before, states without voter ID had more election fraud than states that didn’t. And, of course, there is nothing worse than a mail-in ballot that comes from an undisclosed person in a box with a bunch of other votes from unknown sources, and is counted alongside all the legitimate ballots, which an election worker witnesses.
We observed a significant overcount in 2020 from mail-in ballots that likely didn’t represent actual voters, as Democrats were unable to replicate the effort in 2024. They fell well short of the 81 million votes for president that they had shown for Biden. Those numbers fell short for Kamala Harris, which should have been the same number of engagement. Logically. Only in 2020 were mail-in voting rules loosened due to COVID lockdowns, which then opened the door to massive cheating, which was much harder to replicate in the 2024 election. What is interesting about the 2024 election is that while everyone was focused on the presidential election, with a margin for victory much higher for Trump, the House races and many Senate races were largely overlooked. Yet at least 7 House races were decided by a margin of less than 1%. The California 13th district, where Adam Gray defeated the incumbent John Duarte by less than .09%, or 187 votes out of 200,000 cast. That margin was likely determined by mail-in ballots counted illegally. That was likely the case in Colorado’s 8th district, where Yadira Caraveo beat Gabe Evans by just 557 votes. And going back to 2019, in the race for governor in Kentucky between Matt Bevin and Andy Beshear, the Democrat won by just 5,136 votes out of 1.4 million cast, with an election margin of just 0.37%. If illegal mail-in ballots had not been counted, the Republican majorities in the House and Senate right now would not be as close as they are. There was still a significant amount of fraud in 2024 that did not receive much attention because Trump won his election. But a lot of the margin for Republicans in the House and Senate would have otherwise been much larger.
Democrats, of course, hope that nobody notices and that they can cheat in 2026 to gain majorities back in the House and Senate, so to prevent that from happening, we have to have much better controls over elections. The election fraud question came up again in the White House as an off-topic question while Zelinsky was visiting. And Trump had to explain his reason for the executive order on mail-in ballots. This idea that we need to bring elections to the doorstep of voters is a Democrat one because they have so many of their members who are lazy and unengaged. And they need their votes to get any power. But that’s not how a free society is supposed to work. People need to manage their representation in person, providing proof of their identity. And someone needs to witness that exchange. The security should be just as rigorous as cashing a check at the bank or any other financial transaction. We should assume that people will want to cheat. So we must guard every vote. That seems logical, but the expectation from Democrats is that every disenfranchised person should be able to vote, allowing them to fill out the ballot and submit it through mail-in ballots as a legitimate vote. And many of these close elections are going to Democrats over Republicans, tipping power in a way that does not represent what voters pick. And the damage is extensive. Just looking at the cost of Biden being in office over Trump, everyone discussing the Russian peace talks agrees that if Trump were in the White House, there would not have been an invasion into Ukraine, and millions of people would still be alive. That is the cost of election fraud.
You can see that same trend in just about every political race in the country, where Democrats routinely steal yard signs of their opposing candidates. When people try to steal a message by removing people’s visibility to it, you see a desire to cheat the message toward a favorable outcome by denying information to voters. That same logic applies to mail-in ballots. When people can steal a message with fake ballots thrown into a box to be counted with legitimate votes, they certainly will, and do. So we have to take away all these opportunities to cheat that Democrats have lobbied for over the years, disguised as fairness. Because the exact opposite has happened. There are a lot of Democrats in office now who should not be. And when a former KGB agent in Putin says that the 2020 election was stolen, it’s not because he played a part in it. We know now from intelligence reports that Russia could not impact the 2016 election or the 2020 election. But many people have discussed the election rigging that has gone on in Russia and many other places in the world. And when Putin says that there was blatant cheating, people should listen, because he would know. Elections work against those who want power from an administrative perspective, so all election locations are prone to cheating. With each one, we need to approach them with a heavy hand toward security. We must expect people who want power, as well as those who want to hold it, to cheat to gain it. Cheating in an election is safer than an armed revolt, and many of these radicals would not hesitate to take power through force. Cheating for them is a reasonable concession. And because cheating has been so pervasive, we have a lot fewer Republicans than we otherwise should have. And we need to correct that before the 2026 midterm. Democrats will cheat to gain power back, and it is our job to take that ability away from them and force them to win honest elections. Which they likely can’t do.
