GOP
legally barred from fighting vote fraud
30 years later, consent decree violation claims still
threaten
“
|
The case is the Democratic National Committee vs.
the Republican National Committee, originally from 1982.
Democrats alleged Republicans were trying intimidate minority voters in
New Jersey and brought the legal action. The RNC, inexplicably, decided
to agree to a consent decree before a Democrat-appointed judge rather
than fight the claims.
The judge, Dickinson Debevoise, appointed by Jimmy Carter, later
retired but decided he would continue to control the case. The decision
requires the RNC – but not the DNC – to “refrain from undertaking any
ballot security activities in polling places or election districts
where the racial or ethnic composition of such districts is a factor in
the decision to conduct, or the actual conduct of, such activities
there and where a purpose or significant effect of such activities is
to deter qualified voters from voting; and the conduct of such
activities disproportionately in or directed toward districts that have
a substantial proportion of racial or ethnic populations shall be
considered relevant evidence of the existence of such a factor and
purpose.”
The rest of the agreement essentially requires the RNC to follow
applicable state and federal election laws.
But the section cited above has been used for decades to warn off
Republicans from any challenge to evidence of voter fraud in districts
with “racial or ethnic populations.” [Full

What surprises me is that this is the first time I've heard mention of
that consent decree. Still, I have so long ago decided that the
GOP was little more than a
cup of water to throw on a Democrat grease fire, that I can't
really be
upset. Everybody, and I do mean everybody, knows there was
MASSIVE
vote fraud in the recent election.
Everyone has, or should have seen this coming. I certainly did.
In 1978, American
farmers from across the nation drove tractors, and converged on
Washington DC. I remember getting caught up in the traffic jam
they caused,
and listening to Harden and Weaver on WMAL without moving a foot.
The farmers
were protesting government farm policy. All I remember is them
being
pissed over being paid not to grow
crops! Anyway, that incident triggered the writing of my first
political novel."Bring Me Bronco
Stoma's Head!" [Vane Press]
Bronco
Stoma was a fictional president in my story. I based him on
Jimmy Carter, Ted Kennedy, the anti-Christ, and
Bob Short.
You can still find it in some rare book stores, but it didn't sell all
that well. The establishment press refused to publish it, and
after
spending all our savings self-publishing, the book stores were warned
by "The Man" not to carry it. I gave copies to waiters and cab drivers
in lieu of a tip.
Anyway, the exciting finish. 70,000 tractors, each with mounted
.50
cal Browning, and rocket launchers, and followed by 5 million foot
soldiers (pissed-off Americans) came to Washington. Here, in
retrospect, is the really weird deja-vu part. Them storming
the White House matches exactly
the Seal attack on bin-Laden's compound.
Even the burial at sea (so Stoma's body couldn't be memorialized by
Democrat cultists). Oh yeah, the mob went on to hang everybody in
the
city, and then burn it to the ground.
Of course, all that is fiction; but so is everything we know
about the current poseur.
