Here are the 10 biggest lies Democrats tell about U.S. elections so you can identify and combat these mistruths.
1. Election Integrity Laws ‘Suppress’ Voters
Under the guise of Covid, many states expanded the use of unsupervised mail-in voting, permanently changing the electoral landscape and how modern elections are conducted. With Covid-era lockdowns now in the rearview mirror, many Republican-controlled states have spent the past several years returning their election systems to pre-Covid practices and moving away from unsupervised methods.
With their
election machine that thrives off the insecure mail-in system threatened, Democrats have taken to dishonestly attacking GOP-backed election integrity laws. The most common of these smears is the
debunked claim that
voter ID laws suppress voters, especially those who aren’t white. Of course, there’s no evidence to support such assertions, as
multiple court rulings have found.
One of the more egregious examples of these attacks came from President Joe Biden, who
grossly labeled a benign 2021 Georgia election law as “Jim Crow on steroids.” Contrary to Democrats’ smears, Georgia experienced record early voter turnout during the state’s 2022 midterms. A poll conducted after the election also
revealed that
zero percent of black Georgia voters said they had a “poor” experience voting.
2. The 2020 Election Was the ‘Most Secure in American History’
3. Voter Fraud Doesn’t Exist
4. Election Workers Are Under Siege
5. Ranked-Choice Voting Is ‘Fair’
6. Contingent Electors Are ‘Fake’ and Unlawful
After Arizona Democrat Attorney General Kris Mayes
released an indictment alleging 18 Republicans illegally participated in a so-called “fake elector scheme,” media hacks are once again using this dishonest terminology to characterize Trump’s challenging of the 2020 election results as unlawful and unprecedented.
But there’s no such thing as a “fake elector,” and the naming of contingent Republican electors during the 2020 election was neither unprecedented nor unlawful. The process undertaken in states such as
Georgia closely mirrored efforts taken during the 1960 presidential contest between John F. Kennedy and Richard Nixon.
Had courts ruled in Trump’s favor in lawsuits disputing the election results in battleground states, the alternate electors would have been in place to ensure the will of the people was exercised.
7. ERIC Is ‘Nonpartisan’
8. Mail-In Voting Is Secure and Reliable
9. Democrats Are the Party of ‘Democracy’
10. Biden’s Federal Election Takeover Is Just a ‘Nonpartisan’ Outreach Effort
The seriousness of
Executive Order 14019 cannot be overstated. Signed by Biden in March 2021, the directive ordered hundreds of federal agencies to
interfere in state and local election administration by using taxpayer dollars to engage in voter registration and get-out-the-vote activities — a policy Congress never authorized.
Under the edict, each department was instructed to draft “a strategic plan” explaining how it intended to fulfill Biden’s order, and to collaborate with so-called “nonpartisan third-party organizations” that have been “approved” by the administration to supply “voter registration services on agency premises.” While Biden and his lackies claim these outside groups are “nonpartisan,” the facts tell a different story.
Good government groups and conservative media have discovered that many of the organizations collaborating with the administration are
extremely left-wing, indicating an effort to identify and register likely-Democrat voters. Among those identified are the
ACLU and
Demos, both of which contributed to a “
progress report” tracking agencies’ compliance with the “Bidenbucks” order.
