Since the controversial 2020 election, American patriots have answered the call to secure one of our most important freedoms and obligations. And with less than a month until the 2024 election, the battle over election rules is reaching its climax.

Georgia is the scene of some of the most intense electoral battles. Over the past few months, the Georgia State Board of Elections has passed a number of rules aimed at making it easier to investigate potential fraud and harder to commit fraud. Unsurprisingly, the state Democratic Party and the Democratic National Committee sued over the rule. And on Tuesday, a state judge ruled in their favor.
Fulton County Superior Judge Robert McBurney handed down two sentences. First, he said election officials cannot delay or refuse to certify election results based on suspicions of fraud. He said the problem with the commission's rules is that there are no limits on potential investigations.
McBurney also ruled that the requirement to manually count ballots on election night would not go into effect before the November election. Opponents argued the rules were enacted too late and there wasn't enough time to train poll workers. Ironically, another objection was that the rule would delay election results. Republican Georgia Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger is among those who have made the latter argument. Concerns over delayed election results are laughable, given that Democrats have turned “election day” into “election month.”
J6's brawl was part of the judge's reasoning for the second sentence. Mr McBurney wrote in his eight-page judgment: The memory of January 6th will never fade, regardless of your view of the day's fame or infamy. Anything that adds uncertainty or disorder to the electoral process is detrimental to the people's interests. ”
The judge did not rule on the other five rules discussed at Tuesday's hearing.

Election integrity activists in Ohio have some good news, but there's still plenty of reason to be concerned.
On Tuesday, the Ohio Supreme Court upheld election rules that make it more difficult to collect ballots. The court sided with Ohio Secretary of State Frank LaRose, ruling out recent rules prohibiting authorized persons from using drop boxes to return absentee ballots for people with disabilities. I supported it. Previously, a family member or someone authorized to deliver a ballot on behalf of a voter with a disability could drop off the ballot in the mailbox. Currently, these people must go to the Board of Elections to return their ballots and fill out certification forms. The court dismissed a lawsuit filed by two voters and the Ohio Democratic Party, saying absentee voting began Oct. 8, too late. Mr. LaRose said in a statement after the verdict:
We are grateful that the court has allowed us to move forward with our efforts to protect the integrity of Ohio's elections. Political activists have once again tried to dismantle the safeguards we have put in place, particularly in this case, for ballot collection, but they have been rebuffed. This is the same policy that has been successful in other states and is intended to protect both individuals and election officials from accusations of illegal voting.
But the verdict on the state of Ohio's elections is still out. According to a press release issued by United Sovereign Americans on October 15th, “Over the last week, more than 100,000 new Registration violations were detected. Of these suspicious edits, 32,480 were existing registrants whose registration dates suddenly backdated, and 74,576 were required by federal law to have a single unique ID. However, I am an existing registrant whose ID number has mysteriously changed.'' Learn more.

Virginia has also been a hotbed of election controversy.
On October 11, the U.S. Department of Justice charged the state of Virginia with violating federal law by removing potentially illegal individuals from its voter rolls so close to the general election. According to ZeroHedge, the Justice Department argued in a court filing that Virginia's voter exclusion program violates the “quiet period” provision of the National Voter Registration Act. The law requires states to complete a program to remove ineligible voters from active rolls no later than 90 days before an election.
Zero Hedge details:
According to the complaint, Virginia Governor Glenn Youngkin signed an executive order in August requiring the secretary of state to certify that the state's voter rolls are updated daily.
The Justice Department said the process resulted in the cancellation of U.S. citizens' voter registrations. According to the complaint, the state removed 6,303 people from its rolls from January 2022 to July 2024.
It further argued that local registrars do not have discretion to prevent the revocation of voters who do not return an “affirmation of citizenship,” even if they have reason to believe that those voters are U.S. citizens.
“This systematic voter removal program conducted by states within 90 days of an upcoming federal election violates quiet period provisions,” the Justice Department said in a statement.
Youngkin criticized the Biden administration for filing the lawsuit less than 30 days before the election, saying the administration had implemented the law “appropriately.”
The Republican governor called the Justice Department's lawsuit “unprecedented” and a “politically motivated” attempt to interfere with the state's elections, according to a statement released by the governor's office on Oct. 11.
“Virginians, and the American people, will see this for exactly what it is: a desperate attempt to attack the legitimacy of elections in the very crucible of American democracy, the Commonwealth.”

In Arizona, which Joe Biden won by an estimated 10,000 votes in 2020, the election situation is quite bleak. Election watchdogs suspect at least 200,000 illegal immigrants are registered to vote. America First Legal has sued Arizona Secretary of State Adrian Fontes for refusing to turn over the names of more than 200,000 registered voters who allegedly failed to provide proof of citizenship.
The complaint says Fontes violated the law by refusing to respond to records requests for the names of about 218,000 people who were registered to vote but did not provide proof of citizenship.
Additionally, hundreds of voters were found to be using for-profit businesses as their residence. Breitbart's exclusive article cites a study by the Public Interest Law Foundation (PILF) that shows a portion of Arizona voters are registered with abortion clinics, strip clubs, high schools, and the Arizona Cardinal Training Facility. As Breitbart reported, PILF uncovered similar voter registration issues in Clark County, Nevada, where voters registered to vote at strip clubs, casinos, Harry Reid International Airport, smoking areas, gas stations, and other commercial establishments.

And in Texas, in a significant reversal from guidance from just days ago, Texas Secretary of State Jane Nelson said voters cannot use a noncitizen's driver's license as identification.
As Texas Scorecard reported, the Secretary of State's directive issued Tuesday afternoon states that citizens should not use those types of IDs to vote, but poll workers still presented non-citizen IDs. It is stated that regular voting should be offered to people who are on the electoral register. This is a 2018 statement from the Secretary of State's Office that states that DPS-issued driver's licenses and personal identification cards “should not be used if the front of the card says 'Limited Time' or 'Temporary Visitor.'” This is contrary to the guidance. Indicates that the person is not a U.S. citizen. ” Instead, voters with such identification were encouraged to present other forms of identification, such as naturalization certificates or passports, the Scorecard reported.
