Democrats and the Left are silent in light of actual voter suppression that happened in the 2022 election, when many Pennsylvanians in Luzerne County showed up to vote in the morning, only to be told there were no more paper ballots available to cast their votes.
At least 40 polling places did not have the minimum number of ballots required by state law. When paper ballots ran out shortly after voting began, election officials and poll workers directed voters to come back later. //
The very simple matter of providing enough paper for ballots apparently fell by the wayside, resulting in disenfranchised voters in a swing state and a potential swing county.
Where was Biden to cry voter suppression? Where was the Democrats’ unlimited dark money-funded election law consigliere, Marc Elias, to file a case? The fact is the Left and Democrats did not care, as most of the affected voters in Luzerne County were Republicans. //
The lawsuit was necessary because the problems of Luzerne County are not a one-off for Election Day ballot shortages. Similar “voting irregularities” occurred during the gubernatorial races in New Jersey in 2021 and Mississippi in 2023. In both cases, it was Republican voters who were impacted. //
Because of CEC’s legal victory in Luzerne County, counties and elections authorities are on notice that they will literally pay the price if they suppress votes. But don’t expect Democrats to care when it is not their voters who are being suppressed.
So, what are Democrats doing now in light of election officials’ errors like those in Luzerne? Literally the same night the Luzerne County Council approved the settlement and admitted they suppressed votes, a liberal group parroted the Democrats and Left, calling for a new local ordinance to protect election officials from criticism.
As a county in the most targeted state in the 2024 election, Luzerne serves as a microcosm for the country.
The Left cries “voter suppression” as a political talking point but ignores real voter suppression when it doesn’t suit their interests. They don’t try to make the process more transparent, but instead try to make it impossible to critique election officials and improve the process. //

When Legislators make laws that I might break, like Window Tint, it comes with fines that if I don't pay I can go to prison or be shot during my arrest.
When Legislators make laws government employees may break intentionally, there is no penalty to the perpetrator.
How about if there are no Ballots, I get to fire a Taser at the Precinct Captain? Do you think 🤔 they would forget to have the required Ballots? //
