North Carolina Proves Meadows After Voter Fraud Allegations

North Carolina authorities launched an investigation into former White House chief of staff Mark Meadows on Thursday, following a report earlier this month that revealed a questionable address Meadows registered under to vote in the 2020 election.

This better not take long.
He didn’t live there, he illegally registered to vote there while living in VA and then he voted there. This is so open and shut its absurd.

Noticed the county change? That’s cause he sold his house in Transylvania and moved to VA.

From the New Yorker article:

Did Meadows potentially commit voter fraud by listing the Scaly Mountain address on his registration form? It’s a federal crime to provide false information to register to vote in a federal election. Under President Trump, the White House Web site posted a document, produced by the conservative Heritage Foundation, intended to present a “sampling” of the “long and unfortunate history of election fraud” in the U.S. Many of the cases sampled involve people who registered to vote at false addresses, including, for instance, second homes that did not serve as a person’s primary residence.

Voting from a home that is not your primary residence seems to be one of the common forms of election fraud that does exist. Seems like a pretty clear cut case that is what Meadows did here.

Also, this section from the New Yorker article deserves some further investigation:

In July of that year, less than a month after the House voted to form a select committee to investigate the January 6th attack on the Capitol building, Donald Trump’s Save America pac donated a million dollars to the institute. “The contribution to Meadows’s nonprofit stands out both for its size and for its timing,” NBC noted. A few months later, Mark and Debbie Meadows purchased a $1.6-million-dollar lakefront estate in Sunset, South Carolina. According to Thibault, the director of the Macon County Board of Elections, their voter registration remains linked to the Scaly Mountain mobile home.

I just hope the DOJ doesn’t have to get involved.

So it’s a federal crime. Sleepy Joe will likely be too tired to pardon him I guess.

If you’re a White Republican that’s what’s known as an ‘honest mistake’. :wink:

“Since a few of us have risked voter fraud and gotten away with it so far, it must be the case that millions and millions of other people are doing the same thing,” he remarked when asked. “We’re doing the country a favor by exposing the practise, sort of a sting operation.”/s

So his vote is nullified. That means Trump lost by 8,000,001 votes instead of 8,000,000.

Funny thing: There’s plenty of voter fraud committed but — gadzooks! — it’s always by Rethugliklans. Who’d’a thunk?

And now … a waltz!

I remember over in Kansas a couple had residence there and in CO. I believe their CO residence was their primary residence. But they voted twice, husband claimed he only once for President in one state. His reasoning was because he paid property taxes in both states he should be able to vote for his preferred local politicians in each state. Can’t remember is this during Kobach’s term as KS SoS.

If we didn’t have such assholes in MO then there could be a very strong case that Hawley and wife voted illegally. They have a house in VA. They claim a house that his sister owns in Ozark, MO as their primary residency, but I don’t think they actually live there. It would telling to see where his oldest two sons are registered for school.
When Hawley won election to MO AG he didn’t want to move his family to Jeff City, because he owned a house in Columbia, MO which is 32 miles away. State statue requires state officers live within Jefferson City, poor baby had to rent an apartment in Jeff City.

Effing DOJ. We won’t hear another word about the referral. Not that it matters, Criminal Contempt is a minor misdemeanor.

And he will be found to have committed voter fraud which he could have avoided since NC allows for exceptions for politicos that have to live in DC (hey it is expensive to maintain two residents) BUT if and when he found guilty of doing what he and others have accused democratic voters, he will only receive a mere slap on the wrist.

Which will encourage the base to do the same and they’ll do jail time.

Yeah, but their extra votes will still count since the conviction always comes after the election certification. Ok, maybe not in carolina where the elections board can invalidate a spoiled election, and did so in 2018 for the NC-09 House rep. But note that they didn’t void any of the downballot races even though the 1000-2000 stolen or discarded ballots would have had even more effect on those.

Good reporting, but some style points/nitpicking from a long-time North Carolinian & former newspaperman (back in the days when people were actually called that):
The News & Observer is a newspaper in Raleigh, often referred to as “The N&O” but never called “The Observer.”
If you say “The Observer,” you’ll be understood to be referring to The Charlotte Observer.
(Its detractors sometimes derisively referred to The N&O as The Noisome Disturber.)
