How about using Georgia as an example.

What she is actually saying is that voter ID laws make it much harder for the Democrats the cheat and steal elections.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 40px;\"><b>Bellows&#8217; opposition to the proposed laws, which did not pass, came as Democrats in a number of states opposed largely Republican-led efforts to pass laws aimed at <a href=\"https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/politics\/republicans-roll-out-new-national-voting-law-warn-americans-watch-out-democrat-deception\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">ensuring election integrity<\/a> in the wake of the 2020 presidential election, most notably in Georgia, where some dubbed a similar bill &#8220;Jim Crow 2.0.&#8221; <\/b><\/p>\n<p>And, as I mentioned above, what actually happened was dead opposite of the claims of Lying Liberals.

As far as she\u2019s concerned, they should be ignored and reviled and anything they did declared wrongthink and destroyed. Like all modern Democrats, she loves to say that she is \u201cProtecting our Democracy,\u201d when she\u2019s doing the opposite. She is also forgetting that technically, the United States isn\u2019t a Democracy, it\u2019s a Republic.<\/p>\n<p>I was curious as to how Shenna Bellows became the Secretary of State. It turns out that the office is not an elected position. She was chosen by the state legislature. Here is how it works according to that font of highly accurate misinformation, <a href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Secretary_of_State_of_Maine\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Wikipedia<\/a>:<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 40px;\"><i><b>The secretary of state is elected biannually by ballot of members of both houses of the Maine Legislature assembled together, identical in procedure to its neighbor, New Hampshire. The position is elected at the start of the first session of the Maine Legislature, which also sits for a two-year term, concurrent with the other constitutional officers of Maine.<\/b><\/i><\/p>\n<p>If I\u2019m doing my math correctly, it looks like this SCoaMF will be in office until next year. This means she will be available to cause all sorts of mischief during the 2024 election season. I have a sneaking suspicion that Bellows may be looking for a new job when the Maine Legislature sits to choose the Secretary of State.<\/p>\n<p>Bellows, like most Progressive Liberal Democrats, is learning what FAFO means. I doubt she anticipated the anal probe of her life that is now underway. She might want to discuss how this might turn out with the now former president of Harvard, Claudine Gay.<\/p>\n<p><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter \" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/i.pinimg.com\/originals\/84\/42\/ce\/8442ce336d4270c3035e91f2883487b8.jpg?resize=497%2C444&#038;ssl=1\" width=\"497\" height=\"444\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Thatisall<\/p>\n<span id=\"post-ratings-42024\" class=\"post-ratings\" data-nonce=\"f98d1264d8\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" decoding=\"async\" id=\"rating_42024_1\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/angry.net\/blog2\/wp-content\/plugins\/wp-postratings\/images\/stars_crystal\/rating_on.gif?w=640&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"1 Star\" title=\"1 Star\" onmouseover=\"current_rating(42024, 1, '1 Star');\" onmouseout=\"ratings_off(5, 0, 0);\" onclick=\"rate_post();\" onkeypress=\"rate_post();\" style=\"cursor: pointer; border: 0px;\" \/><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" decoding=\"async\" id=\"rating_42024_2\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/angry.net\/blog2\/wp-content\/plugins\/wp-postratings\/images\/stars_crystal\/rating_on.gif?w=640&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"2 Stars\" title=\"2 Stars\" onmouseover=\"current_rating(42024, 2, '2 Stars');\" onmouseout=\"ratings_off(5, 0, 0);\" onclick=\"rate_post();\" onkeypress=\"rate_post();\" style=\"cursor: pointer; border: 0px;\" \/><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" decoding=\"async\" id=\"rating_42024_3\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/angry.net\/blog2\/wp-content\/plugins\/wp-postratings\/images\/stars_crystal\/rating_on.gif?w=640&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"3 Stars\" title=\"3 Stars\" onmouseover=\"current_rating(42024, 3, '3 Stars');\" onmouseout=\"ratings_off(5, 0, 0);\" onclick=\"rate_post();\" onkeypress=\"rate_post();\" style=\"cursor: pointer; border: 0px;\" \/><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" decoding=\"async\" id=\"rating_42024_4\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/angry.net\/blog2\/wp-content\/plugins\/wp-postratings\/images\/stars_crystal\/rating_on.gif?w=640&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"4 Stars\" title=\"4 Stars\" onmouseover=\"current_rating(42024, 4, '4 Stars');\" onmouseout=\"ratings_off(5, 0, 0);\" onclick=\"rate_post();\" onkeypress=\"rate_post();\" style=\"cursor: pointer; border: 0px;\" \/><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" decoding=\"async\" id=\"rating_42024_5\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/angry.net\/blog2\/wp-content\/plugins\/wp-postratings\/images\/stars_crystal\/rating_on.gif?w=640&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"5 Stars\" title=\"5 Stars\" onmouseover=\"current_rating(42024, 5, '5 Stars');\" onmouseout=\"ratings_off(5, 0, 0);\" onclick=\"rate_post();\" onkeypress=\"rate_post();\" style=\"cursor: pointer; border: 0px;\" \/> (<strong>5<\/strong> votes, average: <strong>5.00<\/strong> out of 5)<br \/><span class=\"post-ratings-text\" id=\"ratings_42024_text\"><\/span><\/span><span id=\"post-ratings-42024-loading\" class=\"post-ratings-loading\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/angry.net\/blog2\/wp-content\/plugins\/wp-postratings\/images\/loading.gif?resize=16%2C16&#038;ssl=1\" width=\"16\" height=\"16\" class=\"post-ratings-image\" \/>Loading...<\/span>\n<p><i><b>~The Angry Webmaster~<\/b><\/i><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Good day all.
