DeMockery: Dumbocrats Claim to Protect the Black Vote but Have Spent Substantial Time and Resources to Keep Cornel West Off the Ballot, Miring His Candidacy in Fuckery, Rendering It to Write-In Status
/From [HERE] Hmm: Democrats are fighting to get third-party candidates Jill Stein and Cornel West off the ballot in multiple states — while simultaneously battling to keep RFK Jr. on some states’ ballot even after he’s withdrawn.
“Defending democracy” sure is a tricky business.
Of course, the “principle” at stake here is nothing but “what’s best for Kamala Harris.”
West is running this cycle as an independent candidate. Only Democrats get to play games, including switching out Biden for Harris once they realized Joe was a sure loser.
They keep saying “democracy is on the ballot” this year, but (to quote Inigo Montoya) we don’t think that word means what they think it means. As a result of dumbocratic fuckery, The West/Abdullah ticket is on pace to be the largest presidential write-in campaign ever!
Arizona
In August 2024, the Arizona Secretary of State said that the West Campaign did not file sufficient paperwork to gain ballot access in the state before the set deadline.
Michigan
In August 2024, Cornel West and his running mate Melina Abdullah were both initially disqualified and denied entry onto the 2024 Michigan presidential election ballot, due to an incorrectly notarized form.
The group Clear Choice Action is backing the effort to block West from the ballot with help from lawyers with ties to the Democratic Party. Clear Choice founder Pete Kavanaugh said there’s ample evidence of “widespread and blatant fraud.”
“When you look through these petition pages, and there are thousands of them, again, it’s close to 30,000 individual signatures, what you see are clear patterns of fraud,” Kavanaugh said.
His campaign responded to a request for comment with a statement saying it “sees these accusations as part of a broader attempt to undermine the democratic process rather than legitimate legal objections."
"The allegations focus on procedural issues such as incomplete voter information and errors by petition circulators, disproportionately emphasizing technicalities over substantial compliance,” the statement continued. [MORE]
The Michigan Democratic Party has been fighting to keep West off the ballot, as has voter Rosa Holliday, who is represented by attorney Mark Brewer, a former Michigan Democratic Party chair. The Michigan Department of State appealed the Court of Claims ruling to the Michigan Court of Appeals, but did not follow through with an appeal to the Michigan Supreme Court, as Brewer did. [MORE]
The Michigan Secretary of State had given West's campaign a week to submit a response concerning the notarization issues and did not receive a response, after which the department disqualified West. On August 24, a Michigan judge overruled the decision, and required West to be given ballot access in Michigan.
Pennsylvania
In August of 2024, a judge ruled agreeing with the Secretary of State’s office that West’s candidacy paperwork was insufficient for ballot access in Pennsylvania.
West’s insurgent candidacy had been challenged in Pennsylvania by Democratic Gov. Josh Shapiro’s administration, with his secretary of state’s office arguing that the 71-year-old far-left candidate did not submit all the required paperwork on time.
The state’s Supreme Court ruling affirmed a lower court order from last month knocking West off the November ballots. [MORE]
West’s campaign has now sought relief from the federal court.
Wisconsin
In Wisconsin, an employee of the Democratic National Convention challenged to keep West off of the ballot. In August 2024, the Wisconsin Election Commission rejected the challenge, and voted 5-1 to keep West on the ballot.
VA
The Virginia Board of Elections also ruled earlier that West will be included on ballots despite previously disqualifying him over alleged faulty paperwork. [MORE]
According to FUNKTIONARY:
dumbocracy – unrepresentative democracy tolerated by a public schooled in public schools. (See: Democracy & Dummy)
demockery – a spectacle of the true nature of democracy. What each political party (the jackass and the elephant) wants is not justice but its own idea of what is just (for themselves and their special interests). “We the people have no say, our duty is to obey and pay for lavish lifestyle of our betters, politicos, bankers and men of letters who talk down to us as though to fools, the working stiff, taxable mules. With intent to confuse the dumbed-down herd, economics, science presented by some nerd, with confident arrogance, talk not plain, why attempt with animals to explain the higher thoughts of lofty mind to junk-gene people left behind. For government you’ll fight, be taxed, labour, next election you’re supplied (again) with another savior.” ~ Alan Watt. (See: Government, Justice, Predictive Programming, Equality, Elections, Voting, Politics, Holodeck Court, Ideology, Collective Delusions, Taxtortion, Slavery, Political Money, Freedom, Control & Violence)
democracy – a commercial form of “government” (exploitation and theft via force, deception and involuntary participation) of the mob, by the mob, and for the mob, i.e., Mob-Rule. 2) a guise rubber stamping of an alternative royalty into overruling power. 3) the worst possible form of government because the majority rules whether they be good, evil, or misled by a minority. 4) slavery of the people, by the people, for the people. 5) equality achieved through force. 6) a system where only the majority need to be fooled. 7) advertised equality. 8) a parody of a free society that only ethical anarchism or voluntaryism can usher into existence.
