"the voting is cleaner in Venezuela than it is [in the United States]"

I am posting this discussion from the Ron Paul Liberty Report, originally aired on November 9, 2022, to feature the section from 15:10 to 17:10 where Daniel McAdams talks about the screaming incompetence at the polls in Maricopa County, Arizona, the fourth largest county in the United States. Remember, the larger the government jurisdiction, the greater the corruption and more than likely the higher the taxes.  

Yes, there are many races we do not know the conclusions to.  Now people have been conditioned to expect "counting the votes takes time."  No, it doesn't.  And it never has in the past.  We've only had this . . . remember when we had this anomaly in 2000, the national election was . . . the nation was turned upside because we didn't know the result right away.  So just the very fact that we are still counting, we don't know who won, tells you the dire state of voting in America right now.  In fact, I think the voting is cleaner in Venezuela than it is here.  And I was watching with disgust yesterday in places like Arizona, Maricopa County, you see some blue collar workers showing up to vote, they get there and 20% of the voting machines [simply] didn't work.  Didn't they do a test-run?  So these citizens had to get back to work.  They couldn't afford to take the whole day and sit around waiting to vote.  Do we know that these are Republicans voters?  We don't know.  There's a good chance they were.  [Actually, we do know.  Most Republican voters vote in person.] Regardless of who they would have voted for, the idea that ON ELECTION DAY 20% OF THE VOTE-COUNTING MACHINES DIDN'T WORK.  Also, a lot of people posted pictures of their ballots on Twitter.  The ballots were printed in such a shoddy manner, I saw better ballots printed in Albania than I saw [in the photos from voters in Maricopa County].  In fact, they were so badly printed that the automatic reader couldn't read the result.  They had to spoil it and get a new ballot.  And we saw tons of problems in Pennsylvania and elsewhere.  So the fact is, Dr. Paul, that voting in the U.S. is atrocious, it's an absolute disgrace.  It's amazing that a so-called first-world country cannot hold a first-world type of election.  So regardless of the result, we've got a real problem here of how we conduct our elections.

Football, soccer, one of the two great things the British empire gave to the world.  BTW, you can look, you can go and see exactly where the British empire starts, where British shipping reached, where the British directly ruled they played cricket.  Where the British ships, the Navy, went they played soccer.  That's why most of the world outside the U.S. plays either soccer or cricket.  

Looking for U.S. election results, except election Day came and I didn't get the results.  Election Day, at least in the United States has turned unto Election Week.

8:40  From an elections standards, American elections are unprecedented and unparalleled historically for American but also around the globe in this sense:  How we conduct American elections would be condemned if it were the American State Dept. talking about some other country's elections.  Around the world, they do not allow mass mail-in voting; they don't allow you to mail it in.  America now does . . . in most key states, and more key jurisdictions.  In most places around the world, they count the ballots the same day as the election.  They tell you how many people voted, first, and then they count them as to who won.  Brazil just had elections.  Within 3 to 4 hours, all the votes were counted.  That's the norm around the globe.  Ah, not in America.  Nevada's elections went on for . . . they're still counting in Nevada.   


By doing this, the political class can flood places that they want or starve places that they want.  

Abbott invoked the invasion clause of Texas constitution, allowing him to deploy the National Guard and . . .

What does "unprecedented" mean?  More protection from guards of the pensioned class? Back in October, 2022, 33 Texas counties declared "an invasion." Now, the Daily Caller announces that Governor Abbott is declaring invasion on behalf of the state.  

Abbott invoked the Invasion Clause of the Texas constitution, allowing him to deploy National Guard and Texas Department of Public Safety (DPS) personnel to turn illegal migrants back to Mexico, build a border wall and designate the Mexican drug cartels as foreign terrorists. Migrant encounters at the southern border are on pace to hit another record year after there were over 2.3 million recorded in fiscal year 2022
