Need voter fraud evidence? Poll provides first-hand confessions

In the poll conducted by Rasmussen Reports, 1,085 respondents were asked the question, “During the 2020 election, did you fill out a ballot, in part or in full, on behalf of a friend or family member, such as a spouse or child?”

In their answer, 21% answered “yes” to that question.

In other related questions, 10% said they personally know of someone who cast a mail-in ballot in a state where they didn’t actually live, and 17% of the respondents admitted they did that themselves.  

The poll was conducted last December by Rasmussen in partnership with The Heartland Institute, a Chicago-based think tank.

Mail-in ballots set new record 

Jim Lakely, vice president and director of communications at Heartland, tells AFN the longtime pollster Rasmussen was “shocked” at the results. That is because the survey data found 28% of the respondents admitted they engaged in at least one type of voter fraud involving mail-in ballots.

“And what it shows,” he says, “is that people’s natural suspicions, by what they see with their eyes and what they hear with their ears when it comes to the 2020 election, that those instincts were correct…”

According to official election results from 2020, Joe Biden defeated Donald Trump 51% compared to 46% for Donald Trump.  

In total votes, Biden officially received 81.2 million votes compared to 74.2 million for Trump, which also set a record. Both totals set new records for a U.S. presidential election.

In that same election almost 3 1/2 years ago, mail-in ballots also set a new record: A whopping 43% of votes came through the mail, the highest percentage ever, up from about 20% during the 2016 presidential election, according to a 2021 post-election story by The Associated Press.

Incidentally, at least according to the AP story, voter turnout jumped 6.7% from the 2016 election to set those record vote totals for Biden and Trump.

Documentary dealt with ballot harvesting

Among the many claims of a “stolen election” in 2020, the documentary “2,000 Mules” alleged massive ballot stuffing at drop-off boxes in several key swing states, including Michigan, Pennsylvania, and Wisconsin.

In the documentary, the group True the Vote cited cellphone data it collected to allege so-called ballot mules repeatedly visited those drop-off locations. The documentary was predictably challenged by the liberal news media, including an AP fact-check. That fact-check, which not dispute the cellphone data, suggested there could be innocent reasons people were repeatedly near the drop boxes. 

The story by the AP acknowledged, however, that ballot harvesting is illegal in the swing states where the documentary focused.  

According to Lakely, the Rasmussen survey is evidence there needs to be tough voting rules, such as voter I.D. and a mail-in ballot that requires a witness such as a notary, for the 2024 election.

It is also evidence, he adds, that Donald Trump was robbed of a second term with mail-in ballots.
