Just How Many Smoking Guns Do We Need?
From the Department of Old News: They Stole the 2020 Election
This graph comes from ZeroHedge and it’s been making the rounds on the internet. It shows the popular vote (absolute vote count) rather than the Electoral College.
On the vertical axis you can see millions of American voters. In 2012, the second time Obama won the Presidency, there were over 65M Democrat voters (blue bar) and just a bit over 60M Republican voters (red bar). That’s 125M voters in the 2012 election.
And if you skip 2020, Democrat voting has been remarkably consistent—check out 2012, 2016, and 2024. In those same elections, Republican turnout has steadily increased.
Now look at 2020. This is the election cycle that mainstream media assured us was the most perfect election ever, it was pristine, not one single error or fraudulent vote was cast. The Democrats—in this case Biden—got over 81M votes. That’s about 15M more votes than Obama got in 2012 and Obama was massively more popular than Biden.
In 2020, the Republicans (Trump) got over 74M votes. In a normal election cycle, that 74M would have been more than enough to put him back in the Oval Office. In fact, Trump got way more votes in 2020 than in 2016.
The fact that Biden won that election by the biggest voting block in American history is unbelievable (and I mean that word literally);
Biden did so badly in the Democrat primaries leading up to 2020 that he nearly dropped out
Biden failed to win most of the bellwether states
Biden was already considered to be old, out-of-touch, and cognitively diminished in 2020, plus he was prone to gaffes
Biden campaigned minimally and ineffectively
Biden was known as an old-school Democrat, highly corrupt, and an absolute disaster in foreign policy
Of Americans eligible to vote, only 37% voted in 2018, 2020, and 2022 while 30% of eligible voters did not vote in any of those elections. Yet according to the U.S. Elections Project, 66.8% of eligible voters voted in 2020. Not only is that a very high number, it is astonishing since it happened in a pandemic.
The 2024 votes have not yet all been counted (election results will not change no matter what the actual count turns out to be at this point, so the election was called even as votes are still being tallied), there are millions of “missing votes.”
Nobody in the history of America has gotten as many votes as Joe Biden in 2020—despite the fact that he was a tired old candidate who barely hit the campaign trail.
So what could explain this?
Due to the pandemic, mail-in voting was widely allowed and in some areas, actively encouraged
Voting rules were changed, sometimes illegally, to help accommodate mail-in voting
We rolled out all kinds of innovative new ways to vote such as ballot harvesting and ballot boxes
The swing states closed down counting in the middle of the night, threw observers out, and then reopened with Biden winning the swing states
And look at the counties that voted for Biden in 2020 and Kamala in 2024. In not one single county did Kamala outperform Biden. She literally lost voters compared to Biden in every Blue county. This either means that every Blue county in the country liked Biden better than Kamala … or it means that Biden had a little unorthodox “help” in those counties that Kamala did not get.
And we had a lot of people cry foul back in 2020 and all the way to today.
Mike Lindell was one of the first to sound the alarm, investing money in lawsuits and films and advancing a theory that some voting machines were hooked to the internet and sending packets of votes overseas and then back again. For his trouble, he was sued, nearly went broke, and suffered tremendous losses in his formerly successful My Pillow business
Sidney Powell sounded the alarm and got hit with lawfare. She likewise claimed there was some shady internet stuff going on.
Dinesh D’Souza raised the red flag with his documentary fill 20,000 Mules about stuffing ballot boxes.
A massive website started to aggregate all of the evidence for voting fraud (and other topics). It’s called Here is the Evidence, and select the tab “Election 2020.”
True the Vote set up in Texas and monitors elections and produces regular podcasts.
Remember how the vote counting in five swing states suddenly stopped on election night 2020. The counting areas closed, observers were thrown out, some put up cardboard or visual barriers so nobody could see what the counters were doing. These swing states mysteriously closed for four or five hours. And then when they reopened, Trump’s lead was gone and they found millions of Biden votes.
Right now, the mainstream media is howling that the millions of votes that appeared in 2020 but went “missing” in the 2024 election are either inconsequential (they’re missing, so what?), inaccurate (they’re still counting votes and expect to find the ~18M missing votes), or proof that Trump stole the 2024 election. The last one is ridiculous, Trump got fewer votes in 2024 than in 2020. The argument is based on states like New Jersey, where Democrats used to dominate but Trump has made huge headway. New Jersey is not yet a Red state, but it’s now a swing state. Those who argue Trump is committing election fraud (despite our pristine perfect system) say that New Jersey and other states are proof because how else would Trump increase his proportion of votes there unless he cheated? You can almost smell the sweet, sweet Democrat desperation.
How many smoking guns are enough?
OK, maybe it’s water under the bridge, but it’s water that we still need to analyze.
So how was the steal prevented in 2024? Have all Democrats become righteous individuals who do not cheat? Hardly.
There was no doubt cheating going on. Election fraud is as American as apple pie, but America runs its elections in such a way that massive nationwide fraud is incredibly difficult. Local fraud, however, is quite feasible. That’s why election fraudsters have to concentrate on battleground states, swing states, or crucial areas. If you want to rig a national election in this country, you have to work the pressure points. We don’t have one election—we have 50 state elections which are pieced together. And those states have elections in various precincts or districts. Each “unit” has its own system and poll workers. It’s hard to infiltrate the whole network. But here are some thoughts as to what we’re doing right.
The Republican National Convention (RNC) has been fighting to tighten up voting rules. A lot of these efforts have gone under the radar. Part of their work was the hiring and deployment of 100,000 attorneys to monitor the vote and be ready to file lawsuits. Nothing like an army of lawyers to strike fear in a criminal’s heart. The legal eagles looked at poll “testing” (they test voting systems for “logic and accuracy”), early voting procedures, ballot tabulation, and mail-in voting. And naturally, they’d be on the job if there were audits or recounts needed.
The RNC mobilized armies of poll workers and monitors to work all over the country, but particularly in the battleground states. We don’t have the data yet how many poll workers were deployed, but some states had up to 11 or more poll workers per polling place.
Voting rolls were cleaned up. Many precincts maintain voting lists that do not regularly remove people who die, move away, or for some other reason should not be on the list. (If somebody is on the voting rolls, a fraudulent ballot can be cast in their name and it will “match” the list of names, so the system will count it—that’s how dead people vote.) It’s also how some people can vote twice—if you lived in Utah and registered to vote there, you may still be able to vote there again—even if you’ve since moved to California. And if you’ve since moved to California, well, you have bigger problems than we can address here.
Shady voter registrations were brought to light, for example, 120 people who register to vote, all using the address of the local Wal-Mart as their residence. Did we get all of these cheaters? No, and we never will. But we removed more of these sham-voters than we did in 2020.
And we’re discouraging some of these fraudsters because we’re looking for them.
There was no pandemic, although mail-in voting is still allowed. It’s just not as allowed as it was back in 2020.
Data are not available, but far fewer people mailed in their votes in 2024 than 2020.
Mail-in votes make fraud easier although the Brookings Institute assures me that mail-in voting is as safe as Fort Knox. They also say that voter fraud is vigorously prosecuted since it’s illegal.
In 2024, there have only been 20 cases of voter fraud brought to court … for voting more than once, falsely registering to vote, and voting when ineligible. Wow, 20 cases.
In 2020, 36 fraud cases were prosecuted. Wow again.
And let’s home in on Pennsylvania, a state known for its creative voting hi-jinx. In 32 elections over the course of three decades and involving roughly 100M votes, it prosecuted… 39 cases of voter fraud.
Ballot harvesting, sometimes called ballot gathering, is less common in 2024 than it was in 2020, but it’s still legal in 35 states. Ballot harvesting means that somebody other than the voter can turn in the ballot. For instance, let’s say some residents at a nursing home want to vote by mail but can’t get to the polls or even mail the ballot. A person may take their ballot and drop them off at the polling place or ballot drop location.
The states that do allow this shady practice sometimes limit who may harvest the ballots—in some states, only a family member or caregiver may deliver someone else’s ballot. But in 17 states, any rando can deliver a ballot. And just 11 out of the 35 states that allow ballot harvesting limit the number of ballots one person can turn in. This was in 2020.
In October 2024, these laws changed: only 20 states allowed anyone the voter wanted to return the ballot and 8 states did not specify who might return ballots. Twenty-two states restricted this (allowing only relatives or caregivers to return ballots or only allowing the voter to return or mail the ballot).
The midnight shut-down of swing state counting rooms did not happen.
We had no cases of observers being kicked out of counting rooms for hours and windows being obscured as votes changes from trending Trump to Biden landslides.
Republicans typically vote on election day, but in 2024, we broke with tradition and turned out for early voting in masses. As a rule, Democrats are more likely to vote early. This switch—having massive numbers of Republicans vote early—likely disrupted election predictions as nobody knew if the high Republican turnout indicated a red wave or just a shift in voting habits.
Katie Couric went on TV championing a “red mirage,” arguing that the early voting of Republicans was making it seem like Trump was ahead when he really wasn’t. She said it was just Republicans early voting and no Republicans would be left to vote on election day.
It’s sad when people lose their mind like that.
Once we get the full 2024 data, it will be interesting to see how we explain the sudden disappearance of millions of American voters. Considering that this election was hyped to be the most important election of a lifetime … why did so many people sit it out? Or maybe 81M people really didn’t vote for Joe Biden… In a way, the 2020 election fraud is now more academic than real. Donald J. Trump is the next President of the United States.
