Mississippi Secretary of State: Feds come into state prisons, register illegals to vote
[MXMnews] Mississippi Secretary of State, Michael Watson, claims the Department of Justice is encouraging illegal immigrants and incarcerated felons to register to vote, violating election integrity. Watson's allegations center on the DOJ's actions following a Biden executive order aimed at expanding voting access.

KEY DETAILS:
  • Controversial Enforcement: Watson accuses the Justice Department of misusing Biden's Executive Order 14019 to potentially register ineligible voters, including felons and non-citizens, through the U.S. Marshals Service.

  • Program Concerns: Modifications to 936 contracts with prisons to facilitate voting by mail and registration efforts for prisoners have sparked fears of election integrity breaches in Mississippi.

  • Partisan Involvement Worries: The potential involvement of partisan groups in the voter registration process raises questions about the impartiality and reliability of these efforts.

DIVING DEEPER:
Michael Watson, Mississippi's Republican Secretary of State, has launched a significant challenge against the Department of Justice (DOJ), asserting that federal efforts to expand voting access are improperly enrolling illegal immigrants and incarcerated felons as voters. This accusation comes in the wake of actions taken to comply with President Biden's Executive Order 14019, which was introduced as a measure to counter racial discrimination in voting access.

Watson's concerns, detailed in a letter to Attorney General Merrick Garland, allege that the DOJ, under the guise of enhancing electoral participation, is effectively subverting Mississippi's electoral integrity. According to Watson, the U.S. Marshals Service is amending agreements with correctional facilities to introduce voter registration and mail-in voting facilitation for inmates, a move Watson deems fraught with risks of registering ineligible voters.

The Secretary of State's objections are twofold: firstly, the potential for non-citizens and felons, who are ineligible to vote, to be added to voter rolls; and secondly, the engagement of possibly partisan external groups in the registration process. The involvement of such groups, Watson argues, undermines the non-partisan nature of election administration and raises questions about the accuracy and reliability of voter guidance provided.

Watson's letter encapsulates broader concerns among conservatives regarding election integrity and the propriety of federal intervention in state-run electoral processes. The Biden administration's executive order, while framed as an initiative to make voting more accessible and fair, is criticized by Watson and like-minded officials as a vehicle for potential voter fraud and election manipulation.

The Mississippi Secretary of State's call for a halt to these DOJ actions underscores a significant clash between state and federal visions of election management and integrity. Watson's demand for transparency and reassessment of the DOJ's initiatives reflects a contentious debate over the balance between expanding voting access and ensuring that such expansions do not compromise the sanctity of the ballot box.

#4  Dems will win in 2024 with 400 million votes (or whatever it takes). Whether or not anyone actually votes is immaterial, the only votes that count are the ones the counters count. Any objections to this process have no standing.

Pence says he will not endorse former boss Trump in 2024 US election
[Jerusalem Post] Mike Pence, who served as Donald Trump's vice president for four years, said on Friday he will not endorse his former boss ahead of November's US presidential election.

Pence, who ended his own 2024 presidential campaign amid dismal opinion poll numbers, told Fox News: "It should come as no surprise that I will not be endorsing Donald Trump this year."

Pence served Trump loyally but publicly broke with the former Republican president over his role in the January 6, 2021, riot at the US Capitol by Trump supporters.
