John Fund: Sneaky feds plot to grab state election power

Latest scheme in move to let U.S. government centralize America's voting systems

The Obama administration is using the intelligence reports of Russian hacking influencing the 2016 campaign as the premise for asserting more power over the states in running elections, but a top election fraud expert says federal involvement would make elections more vulnerable to mischief and is really just a way to insert the federal government where it doesn’t belong.

Article I, Section 4 of the U.S. Constitution is clear about the roles of the federal and state government in overseeing elections.

“The times, places, and manner of holding elections for senators and representatives shall be prescribed in each state by the legislature thereof; but the Congress may at any time by law make or alter such regulations,” it reads.

However, on Jan.6, the Obama administration – not Congress – decided to give the government more power in running elections. President Obama has been very busy cramming in many new regulations before he leaves office, but elections expert and columnist John Fund told WND and Radio America this one is particularly alarming.

“One of the most troublesome (orders) came last Friday and gave the federal government the power to begin centralizing our election systems. The Constitution explicitly gives states the power to set the ‘times, manner and places of holding elections,'” wrote Fund in National Review Online on Sunday.

This has Soros's name all over it. It is part of his doctrine of centralized control.
Create a fictitious need then tell everyone that "we're here from the government and we're here to help"
All you need to do is Google Saul Alinsky and look at his methods for creating a totalitarian government. Soros read it and Obama and HRC wrote papers on it. It's how and why they think the way they do.

It isn't "sneaky".
It is immoral and criminal, and it is an international agenda among the elites who own and rig all of the markets.
