Alexander: The Biggest Threat to 'Free and Fair' Elections -- BIG Tech

“We should be unfaithful to ourselves if we should ever lose sight of the danger to our liberties if anything partial or extraneous should infect the purity of our free, fair, virtuous, and independent elections.” —John Adams (1797)
The Democrat Party and its Leftmedia propagandists have spent most of the last three years telling us that Donald Trump colluded with the Russians to steal the 2016 election.

But in truth, we now know that this was an epic charade set up by way of real collusion between the Obama administration, Hillary Clinton, and the Democrat National Committee. Most significant is the fact that Demo operatives at the highest levels of the Department of Justice gave this political ruse its rise.1

Their goal? To ensure the appointment of a special counsel and a subsequent investigation to end the Trump presidency, or at the very least undermine his administration’s policies by calling into question the legitimacy of his presidency.

We also know that the Russians did meddle in the election, mostly by way of odd and inconsequential social-media posts, as well as by hacking into the DNC server and releasing some embarrassing email exchanges between Demo bureaucrats.

But foreign election meddling is nothing new, and there isn’t a shred of evidence that Russian interference in 2016 changed even a single vote.

By comparison, it is the Demo/MSM tag team that has posed the biggest threat to free and fair elections for almost 50 years — and it is remarkable to think how different our current political landscape would look if the media coverage was balanced. The Leftmedia’s “in kind” donations to Democrat candidates are the equivalent of billions of dollars in promotional advertising — but not a dime of it is ever declared.

The biggest threat to free and fair elections are unsecured electronic voting booths that our elected officials turn a blind eye to.
