There are a number of articles on the ballot harvesting fraud in NC.

“Republicans, leaders in American Voter Fraud”

They’re doing a good job at Campaign Fraud too!

> [Republican Rep. Jeff Fortenberry of Nebraska](https://www.cnn.com/2021/10/19/politics/jeff-fortenberry-indictment/index.html) was found guilty on Thursday of concealing information and making false statements to federal authorities in regard to an investigation looking into illegal campaign contributions in his 2016 reelection campaign  
> …  
> “After learning of illegal contributions to his campaign, the congressman repeatedly chose to conceal the violations of federal law to protect his job, his reputation and his close associates,” US Attorney Tracy L. Wilkison said in a statement. “The lies in this case threatened the integrity of the American electoral system and were designed to prevent investigators from learning the true source of campaign funds.”  
> …  
> during a June 2018 call, the fundraiser co-host told Fortenberry that the $30,000 in donations “probably did come from” a foreign national.

A mistake or oversight is one thing. But to actively lie and conceal it …

Getting control over the police force would be one of the easiest to do for a potential dictator. We saw that on Jan 6. We’ve seen it used to shot protestors. It wouldn’t be that hard to round up some congress people and a couple justices and push through some “emergency” legislation.

All they needed was a single hostage and the democratic process would have come to a standstill and dictatorship would have taken over. This may still happen unless the SCOTUS regains integrity and applies Constitutional Representative Law as it was intended to function.

_(they are a bit long winded about it, so their not perfect, gloating is obnoxious, but facts is facts)_

I find the similarity to homophobe hysterical, projecting their own sins onto other, inescapable. The disintegration of American civility, is not a good thing.
