    Default Biden spent decades warning of voter fraud — now called a myth by DEMOCRATS



    The DEMOCRAT Party line treats voter fraud as little more than a GOP fever dream — yet the party’s presidential candidate Joe Biden spent decades of his career sounding the alarm about it.

    Biden, the DEMOCRAT standard bearer, consistently shared GOP concerns about voter fraud during his 36 years as a United States senator from Delaware.

    “Should Voters Be Allowed To Register On Election Day? No,” Biden wrote in 1977. He even chided President Carter for proposing it.

    A “reservation I have and one that is apparently shared by some of the top officials within the Department of Justice is that the president’s proposal could lead to a serious increase in vote fraud,” Biden wrote.

    Throughout the 1980s and 1990s, Biden worked closely with now-Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell to stiffen penalties for voter fraud.

    In 1988 — the same year his son’s drug record was being expunged — Biden introduced the “Anti-Corruption Act,” which McConnell co-sponsored. The bill would have enacted penalties for anyone who deprived anyone of “a fair and impartially conducted election process through the use of fraudulent ballots or voter registration forms or the filing of fraudulent campaign reports.”

    Biden and McConnell tried again in 1989.

    The 1989 version also died as a standalone bill. Undeterred, Biden tried to shoehorn the voter fraud elements into the Federal Crime Control Act, in 1989 and the National Drug Control Strategy Act of 1990 — they went nowhere.

    When Biden introduced the Violent Crime Control and Law Enforcement Act of 1993, McConnell — his faithful partner on the effort — snuck in voter fraud provisions as an amendment. But the bill died.

    McConnell introduced the act on his own in 1995 without Biden’s participation — it died again.

    By the time he served as vice president to Barack Obama, Biden had fully, and publicly, abandoned his former views.

    “Why, without any proof of voter fraud, have 81 bills been introduced in state legislative bodies, to make it harder for people to vote,” Biden asked an audience in 2014.

    Biden has more flip flops than the beach on Memorial Day.

    now we have the regime leader telling Americans to vote twice-corrupting our system..
    "There is no question former President Trump bears moral responsibility. His supporters stormed the Capitol because of the unhinged falsehoods he shouted into the world’s largest megaphone," McConnell wrote. "His behavior during and after the chaos was also unconscionable, from attacking Vice President Mike Pence during the riot to praising the criminals after it ended."

    How is it "corrupting our system", when the president is advising voters to make sure their mail-in vote is counted by cross-checking it at the polls?

    If the mail-in ballot was counted, an in-person ballot can't be cast at the polls. But if the mail-in ballot was "lost" by the members of one of the postal unions supporting Joe Biden, the in-person ballot will be tallied.

    That is not what he said. He said check, and if your vote is not counted, then vote in the precinct. I am sure you know mail-in is not counted until after election day. So there ie no way that it could be tabulated. Therefore Trump is telling people to vote twice.
