Michigan’s Democrat Secretary of State Jocelyn Benson has just been hit with an election integrity lawsuit from the Republican National Committee (RNC).

On Wednesday, the RNC filed a lawsuit against Benson in an effort to address the swing state’s voter register rolls.

According to a press release, the RNC’s lawsuit alleges that the state is failing to abide by the National Voter Registration Act’s (NVRA) requirement that voter rolls must keep “clean and accurate voter registration records.”

Under the NVRA, states must make a “reasonable effort” to remove people who are ineligible to vote from their voter rolls.

On Thursday, Obama-appointed Judge Amy Berman Jackson ruled against a group of seven Republican plaintiffs — all U.S. citizens and all registered to vote in D.C. — who argued the city’s “Local Resident Voting Rights Amendment Act of 2022” violated their Fifth Amendment rights by letting illegals water down their votes.

As a reminder, in 2019 Judge Jackson sentenced Roger Stone to 40 months for ‘lying to Congress,’ and ordered Paul Manafort to be held in jail prior to his conviction, but dismissed Benghazi charges against Hillary Clinton. In a prediction of greater things to come, Judge Jackson shut down President Trump’s 2017 travel ban against several terrorist countries, since they were ‘predominantly muslim.’

America last.

The District of Columbia’s 2022 law, which Judge Jackson just loves, removed any citizenship requirement to vote in city elections. “Noncitizen residents” can now vote for local officials, including mayor, local initiatives, referenda, recalls, and charter amendment measures. You aren’t going to believe this, but the law also allows “noncitizen residents” to run for D.C. government roles and serve on the city’s Board of Elections.

What could possibly go wrong?

Actually, I gave it some thought. It might not be a bad thing! I’m not sure that illegal aliens could possibly vote worse than the citizens who live in 90%-democrat D.C. In the same 2022 legislative session as passing the illegal voter law, dumb-as-rocks DC also changed its criminal code, eliminating most mandatory minimum sentences and lowering maximum penalties for violent crimes.

And while they’re at it, having perfected mail-away ballots and having dispensed with the citizenship requirement, why not go all the way and chuck the residency requirement, too? Let the “noncitizens” vote for the next DC mayor right where they are, by mail-in ballot, from the convenience of their home countries.

You can’t get more inclusive than that.

I’m not dumb enough to promise progressives won’t try, but this kind of thing is unlikely to spread very far beyond DC, since a similar law would be much harder to pass outside DC. Citizenship to vote and to hold office is required by most state constitutions, or by state election statutes, which can’t be so whimsically be changed by a single out-of-control city council.

Congress, with presidential approval, can review DC laws. If the Republicans ever regain control of the out-of-control federal government, they can vacate both the illegal voter law and the criminal ‘reform’ package. ...

“This case is only just the beginning. It was always going to be decided at a higher level than a U.S. district court,” Mr. Hajec explained, quite reasonably adding “the very notion of our nation’s independence is threatened by this law and others like it.”

Wisconsin Question 1, the Prohibition on Non-Governmental Funding of Elections Amendment, is on the ballot in Wisconsin as a legislatively referred constitutional amendment on April 2, 2024.[1][2]

Wisconsin Question 2, the Only Designated Election Officials to Conduct Elections Amendment, is on the ballot in Wisconsin as a legislatively referred constitutional amendment on April 2, 2024.[1][2]

Mississippi Secretary of State Michael Watson wrote to U.S. Attorney General Merrick Garland on March 6 alleging that agencies under the attorney general’s charge are “attempting to register people to vote, including potentially ineligible felons, and to co-opt state and local officials into accomplishing this goal.”

The allegation relates to President Joe Biden’s Executive Order 14019, which states, “The head of each agency shall evaluate ways in which the agency can, as appropriate and consistent with applicable law, promote voter registration and voter participation.”

Among other things, this order has forced U.S. Marshals to modify more than 900 contracts with prisons and jails to provide voter registration documents and facilitate mail-in voting for inmates, Mr. Watson wrote.
