Utahns will soon be asked to write a state ID number on mail ballots.
Utah is among the handful of states that conduct primarily postal elections, and the current practice is that every voter is automatically mailed a ballot. But that’s about to change, under a bill recently passed by the state Legislature, which Gov. Spencer Cox’s office tells us he plans to sign.
Democrats—with a virtually noncompetitive race, a presidential call to ditch caucuses, and memories of the bungled 2020 caucus—are turning entirely to mail ballots for the 2024 caucuses in Iowa.
The 2024 election will probably be preceded by another flood of lawsuits over voting rules, especially absentee ballots, and keep an eye on Pennsylvania. Last week a federal judge there ruled that timely mail ballots must be counted even if the voter neglected to write the date, as state law requires. This may go to the Supreme Court, which punted a similar case last year.
Activists’ claims of widespread voter fraud were bolstered by video evidence of illegal ballot box stuffing that caused a judge to order a redo of a primary.
Arizona Republican candidate Kari Lake announced an upcoming trial date in a lawsuit to acquire mail-in ballot signatures nearly a year after the November 2022 midterm election.
Discussions and policies of the COVID-19 lockdown were heavily politicized and manipulated. Are we going to have a replay of the lockdown just in time for the 2024 election cycle?
At the end of the day, Democrats don’t care about the security in-person Election Day voting brings or the integrity of U.S. elections. All they care about is acquiring and maintaining power. If that means embracing risky voting policies like mail-in voting, then so be it.
The analysis also found that 95,556 ballots—almost 5% of those listed on the state’s active voter lists—were sent to undeliverable addresses. Meanwhile, an additional 1.2 million ballots were never mailed back to election officials, according to the analysis of data from the office of Nevada Secretary of State Francisco Aguilar, who was first elected in November.
The California Secretary of State just issued data that show the 2022 election was a mess.
Why? Because of vote by mail.
They hope to return the state to in-person election-day voting on paper ballots that are to be hand-counted—no more electronic scanners or voting machines.
