This is on-going voter fraud. (Virginia)

Although it is in Virginia now, the shits running this scam are using it as a test run for the 2024 election, nationwide.

Yesterday they got a cease and desist order from the Virginia State AG:

"ARLINGTON, Va. (7News) — Virginia Attorney General Jason Miyares issued a Cease-and-Desist letter Tuesday to prevent the distribution of flyers that contain misinformation and threats about voting.

Less than a week ago, 7News reported that the Prince William County Office of Elections received numerous calls about the phony flyers being distributed in Loudoun, Prince William and Fauquier counties."

While the article does not identify the group sending out this fraud, I did via another story in the "Prince William Times."

- It is from a group of Reich-wing weasels called the “Virginia Voter Assistance."
- “Virginia Voter Assistance." is a “special project” by "Look Ahead America."
- "Look Ahead America" is a conservative political nonprofit founded in 2017 by Matt Braynard, the former director of data and strategy for the Trump presidential campaign.

Sweet!!

How Reich-wing are they?

These American Patriots™ call those arrested on Jan. 6 “political prisoners” and has supported them with rallies, candlelight vigils, a political prisoner podcast and a database of jobs called “Jobs for #J6.”

Here it comes:

Most recently, Look Ahead America shifted its attention to the upcoming Virginia elections as a dry run for the 2024 Presidential Election.

“This is bigger than the 2023 state elections in Virginia. If we can prove our method of turning out patriotic voters using a 501(c)(3) with high-pressure tactics works here, then we will open the door to resources that will allow us to do it nationwide in the presidential election in 2024.”

Only one Party does this....

1. The GOP's credo has morphed from Country First, to 'If You Can't Beat'em - Cheat'em'

Not that they ever really took the first one seriously; it was more like 'Country Clubs First' - but still.

2. You know it is bad when the Commonwealth's Right Wing Attorney General even comes out against it.

Just like "Moms for Liberty" want to dictate to others what they can and can't read.

Orwellian.

All the total opposite of what they are meant to sound like.

Have I told you lately how much I loathe these traitorous motherfuckers?

And it's only gotten worse. Much worse.

Tens of millions if voters can't see thru the lies.

And millions relish the lies and the harm done -- anything to "own the Libs."
