‘Republicans Accuse Governor of Changing Rules to Win Senate Race’ – SYSTEMIC FRAUD IN DEMSTER POLITICS, THIRD WORLD-LIKE!
AMERICAN/ACTION/NEWS | September 3, 2020
The Trump Campaign and Republican Party committees from the national and state level filed a lawsuit yesterday against Montana Governor Steve Bullock (D).
The Trump Campaign, Republican National Committee, National Republican Senatorial Committee, and Montana GOP have intervened, asking a federal district court to block the implementation of Bullock’s order, which the suit describes as an openly political move.
The Washington Free Beacon’s Collin Anderson reports:
“The Governor’s power grab under the cover of COVID-19 is particularly egregious. The Governor is running for U.S. Senate as a member of the Democratic Party, and his race is one of the most competitive in the country,” the suit says. “He is using his current position to force a brand-new election system on Montanans that, according to his own party, will sway the election in his favor.”
Bullock called the challenge a “template lawsuit.”
“Voting by mail in Montana is safe, secure, and was requested by a bipartisan coalition of Montana election officials seeking to reduce the risk of COVID-19 and keep Montanans safe and healthy,” Bullock told the Washington Free Beacon. “This is the same directive that the Republican President of the Senate and Republican Speaker of the House said was the right thing to do for the June primary. Today, we have many more active cases of COVID-19 than we did back in June.”
Bullock’s order allows counties to determine their own vote-by-mail and early voting measures, creating a “patchwork election code with no uniform procedures,” according to RNC chairwoman Ronna McDaniel. While Montana’s current vote-by-mail system requires voters to request a ballot, Bullock’s order allows counties to send unsolicited ballots to all registered voters.
The race may determine which party holds the Senator Majority after Election Day. The Cook Political Report considers it a toss-up.
What do you think? Could Bullock’s attempt to upend the election process at the 11th-hour doom the GOP’s hopes in deep-red Montana? Let us know in the comments below, and while you’re at it, click those social media share buttons!
