California recall candidate Larry Elder launches voter fraud website ahead of election

SACRAMENTO, Calif. —
California gubernatorial candidate Larry Elder is already preparing to challenge the recall results if Gov. Gavin Newsom stays in office.

Elder is currently the top-polling candidate seeking to replace the governor.

A link on Elder’s campaign website takes users to a form where they can report incidents of voter fraud and sign a petition to investigate the results of the recall.

Elder made comments to reporters earlier this week that there could be “shenanigans” in the recall similar to the 2020 election. There was no evidence of widespread election fraud in the 2020 election.

From the site:

As is the case, we implore you…our fellow citizens…to join us in this fight as you are able, primarily by signing our petition demanding a special session of the California legislature to investigate and ameliorate the twisted results of this 2021 Recall Election of Governor Gavin Newsom.

1. Voters who cast improperly formed ballots have an advantage over voters who cast their ballots in person, a violation of both the Equal Protection Clause of the Fourteenth Amendment to the US Constitution and the Privileges and Immunities Clause of Article IV of the US Constitution.

2. Instances of undocumented ballots have been discovered prior to the election date of September 14.

3. If the recall election advances to an audit, we must not permit county officials who may or may not have contributed to these discrepancies to conduct the recount themselves instead of allowing independent groups under state control to conduct the recount. Allowing this is tantamount to allowing an alleged criminal to examine the crime scene, or negligent workers at the site of an industrial accident. It is nonsensical.

4. Statistical analyses used to detect fraud in elections held in 3rd-world nations (such as Russia, Venezuela, and Iran) have detected fraud in California resulting in Governor Gavin Newsom being reinstated as governor. The primary analytical tool used was Benford’s Law and can be readily reproduced.

(Emphasis mine.)

So, Newsom has already been reinstated? Awesome! Fuck Larry Elder.

Just like the recall itself. Rile people up for no good purpose, create controversy where there is none.

Item 4 tries to tar Newsom by mentioning baddies in the same sentence. So blatant. When they can't win they throw up dirty tricks.

This is such corrupt crap. It is a desperate grab for power with no regard for the cost to the social fabric. It is evil.

Both because they think it is morally justified since they don’t agree with democratic norms and also to show that “the system doesn’t work.”

I heard a clip the other day, with Trump on the phone with one of the Trump station's host. He said the election would probably be rigged. GOP losers crying election fraud will be the trend for some years to come.

Repukes no longer believe in democracy and they are out to destroy ours.

If I win, then it's on the up and up. If I lose, then it's because of voter fraud.

In other words, either we should not have a democracy or only Repukes should be allowed to vote, count the votes, certify the votes and win!

Apparently this is the GOP's latest tactic. If you win, it was fair & square but if you lose it was obvious fraud! Then claim you were cheated and demand recount, after recount, after recount. Never back down and admit you lost. Just keep riling up your idiot base about how you are the REAL Governor/Senator/Congressman/President/local council member/school board director--the list is endless. It's insane. For some unknown reason Republicans think that their ideas and policies are a huge hit with the American voters so they can't imagine losing. All this does is lead to hatred and division.

is that bad? Good! The more I see his ads the less he presents himself as a governor. I had no knowledge of him before the recall. Never heard him speak.

If this is the best the CRP can do with a pool of 40 million people, they are bankrupt.

Get those NO ballots to your registrar before the 14th!

I voted NO on recalling Gavin Newsome. He's a very good governor and we don't want a Trumper ruining Calif. Elder is against Women's rights and the mask mandate that is protecting us from Covid. He also abuses women. Horrible odious man not fit to replace Gov Gavin Newsom.

I think severe penalties are needed for any interference in our right to vote. This includes trying to pass laws to impede any measures needed to insure that all Americans can vote easily.
