Republican Judge Jefferson Griffin’s lawsuit challenges the results of North Carolina’s Supreme Court election, where he lost to Justice Allison Riggs by a narrow margin. He seeks to invalidate tens of thousands of votes due to alleged registration irregularities, a move legal experts deem an attempt at mass disenfranchisement. This action, supported by the RNC, is seen as setting a dangerous precedent for future elections, potentially undermining faith in the democratic process. The case is currently before both the state Supreme Court and the Fourth Circuit Court of Appeals, with significant implications for the integrity of elections nationwide.

A new AP-NORC poll reveals a significant shift in Republican confidence regarding election integrity. Following Donald Trump’s 2024 victory, approximately 60% of Republicans expressed considerable confidence in the national vote count, a substantial increase from October’s figures. This rise in confidence extends to state-level counts, and overall public confidence in the accuracy of the 2024 election is now around 60%, up from 50% in October. This contrasts sharply with the post-2020 period, marked by widespread Republican skepticism fueled by Trump’s unsubstantiated claims of election fraud.

Following the November 5th election, approximately 200 absentee ballots in Madison, Wisconsin went uncounted, prompting a state investigation into the city clerk’s actions. The Wisconsin Elections Commission launched the investigation due to the late disclosure of the issue, nearly a month and a half after the election, and the significant number of uncounted ballots. Although the uncounted votes did not alter election outcomes, the commission deemed the oversight serious enough to warrant a full investigation into potential legal violations and procedural failures. The city clerk’s office has pledged to cooperate and implement improved processes to prevent similar occurrences in future elections.

Another Florida state representative has switched from the Democratic to the Republican party, marking the second such instance this year. This action has sparked considerable outrage and accusations of voter fraud, with many questioning the legitimacy of the election process.

The widespread anger is palpable, particularly amongst those who feel betrayed by the representative’s actions. The sentiment is that this constitutes a form of political dishonesty, a betrayal of the trust placed in the representative by their constituents.… Continue reading
Following his “Patriot of the Year” award from Fox News, Trump announced plans to address election integrity, focusing on implementing paper ballots, one-day voting, voter ID, and proof of citizenship. This renewed focus on election reform, despite his November victory and the statistical rarity of widespread voter fraud, suggests a continued pursuit of his 2020 election fraud claims. His comments specifically targeted California’s voting system, which doesn’t mandate photo ID at polling places.

While Vice President Kamala Harris has conceded the presidential election, her campaign is now partially redirecting donations towards a recount effort. This effort is being channeled through ActBlue, with a portion of donations being allocated to a “Recount Account” without specific details provided about its purpose or scope. Although multiple states would need to flip to change the election outcome, some states have automatic recount procedures triggered by close margins. Notably, Harris’ campaign is also seeking donations to support Democrats in uncalled congressional races, highlighting the ongoing efforts to ensure all votes are counted in close contests.

Elon Musk’s recent statements regarding the ease of hacking voting machines have sparked a flurry of discussion and debate. The tech billionaire has repeatedly claimed that voting machines are “too easy to hack,” raising concerns about the integrity of elections.
Musk’s claims have been met with skepticism and even accusations of him deliberately spreading misinformation.

They argue that the process of rigging an election on a large scale would be extremely difficult and require coordinated efforts across multiple jurisdictions.… Continue reading
The recent election has ignited a wave of conspiracy theories on both the left and right, primarily fueled by a drop-off in Democratic votes. Many voters on the left are expressing bewilderment and frustration, unable to reconcile the outcome with the perceived strength of the Democratic campaign. They cite anecdotes about problems with mail-in ballots, missing votes, and discrepancies in vote counts as evidence of something amiss. The prevailing sentiment is that the election results don’t seem to make sense, particularly given the historical voting patterns and the relative strength of the Democratic candidates.
On the other side of the political spectrum, many Republicans, particularly those aligned with the former President, see the election as a victory for their party and a validation of their own narratives.… Continue reading
Clark County, Indiana election officials have once again failed to accurately count all ballots, mirroring a similar issue from the 2022 general election. Over 4,000 ballots were not included in the initial unofficial election results due to a problem with memory sticks used to transfer results from voting machines. While the error did not affect the outcome of any race, voters expressed frustration and called for improvements to the process. The county clerk assured the public that the accuracy of the election results is a priority and that they are committed to maintaining public trust in the electoral process.
