Watchdog Warns Of ‘Massive’ Leftwing Infrastructure Prepared For Election ‘Lawfare’

A conservative elections watchdog organization released a report on election laws in 2024 battleground states, warning that the Left has a “massive operation” in place ready to engage in litigation “lawfare.”

The Honest Elections Project released its guide to voting laws in battleground states on Wednesday, surveying the varying state laws on mail-in voting, early voting, drop boxes, ballot receipt deadlines, voter registration deadlines, voter ID laws, and other measures. The states included in the report included Arizona, Georgia, Michigan, Montana, Nevada, North Carolina, Ohio, Pennsylvania, and Wisconsin.

“As we head toward a presidential election that appears it will be decided by a razor thin margin yet again, election integrity policies could have major implications on the outcome. While some states’ election safeguards are better than others, it is important for the public to be aware of the status of these laws as we get closer to election day,” Honest Elections Project Executive Director Jason Snead said. 

States like Arizona, Georgia, and Pennsylvania are all expected to be close and determine the winner between former President Donald Trump and Vice President Kamala Harris.

In a press call on Wednesday, Snead said that some of the states surveyed, like Georgia and Ohio, had “substantially better” election laws in place while he raised concerns about election administration in Michigan and Nevada. 

He said that election security of Georgia and Ohio stood out, praising their tight restrictions on ballot drop boxes. 

”A lot of the credit for improving the upcoming election goes to state lawmakers who have passed elections laws in Florida, Georgia, Texas, Arizona before the change in power in 2022, and others,” he said during the call. “They passed laws often in the face of incredibly stiff opposition when the Left was hurling invectives.”

In contrast, he criticized Michigan over its passage of Proposition 2 last election cycle, which overhauled the state’s election laws. One portion allowed a person to sign an affidavit instead of presenting an ID when voting. 

Snead also warned that the Left had a massive private “get out the vote” infrastructure in place that was more lacking by the Right. 

“They have a massive, massive operation. It’s sort of a perpetual machine at this point,” he told The Daily Wire. “The Left has outsourced most of those activities whether you’re talking about litigation lawfare, voter registration, GOTV, to nonprofit groups that operate 24/7 365 and they have access to enormous sums of money to do what they are doing.” 

Additionally, Snead urged Congress to pass the SAVE Act, which would add protections to ensure that only American citizens will be able to vote in elections.

Fibis I am just an average American. My teen years were in the late 70s and I participated in all that that decade offered. Started working young, too young. Then I joined the Army before I graduated High School. I spent 25 years in, mostly in Infantry units. Since then I've worked in information technology positions all at small family owned companies. At this rate I'll never be a tech millionaire. When I was young I rode horses as much as I could. I do believe I should have been a cowboy. I'm getting in the saddle again by taking riding lessons and see where it goes.
