EIPCa - Still Fighting for the Voting Rights of all Californians!

The United States of America came into existence upon the foundation of the Judeo-Christian heritage, with the fundamental acceptance of God-given rights as proclaimed in the Declaration of Independence. Millions of Americans will celebrate the Independence Day holiday over this next weekend, so it is proper to examine a key element in the Liberty and God-given rights American citizens enjoy.

The very bedrock of the freedoms guaranteed to citizens in the United States is the freedom to choose our leaders in fair, honest and transparent elections. Yet in recent years, many American citizens have grown skeptical of the validity of our national elections, and such lack of faith is dangerous. Simultaneously, suppression of the expression of such doubt about the elections has never before been so strong.

The perfection of election corruption entails purposeful, systematic malfeasance in running a statewide election system rather than random instances of vote fraud. It is becoming increasingly evident that our nation’s elections are prey for authoritarian and autocratic leaders willing to obscure the processing of ballots, instill deception in the ballot processing procedures, deviate from compliance with election laws, and/or rewrite election laws in the midst of an election to set up unbalanced political contests.

This constitutes corruption of our elections, and such disregard for the integrity of our election process undermines the purpose and true value of having elections. As such corruption grows, and goes unacknowledged and unpunished, public faith in elections diminishes and they become formalities or exhibitions –mere illusions of elections.

Election integrity is a much more serious concern today among a wide swath of the American public than it was 40 years ago. Fortunately, there is also less willingness to allow that concern to be brushed under the rug.

As a result, citizen watchdog groups and public forums have sprung up rapidly across the nation. It is quite simple: A majority of American citizens are no longer willing to accept the illusion of elections as a legitimate replacement for fair, honest and transparent elections. Sadly, government and media have linked arms to either overtly or covertly suppress the words and actions of those groups, effectively stripping citizens of freedom of speech, assembly and petition of grievances enshrined in the First Amendment.

Nowhere is this corruption more advanced or obvious than in California. Sadly, the old cliché that “as goes California, so goes the rest of the nation” is once again becoming true. State after state, the infection of California style elections that remove integrity from the election process is taking hold. Many believe there have not been fair and honest elections for at least a couple decades.

In California, the nonpartisan Election Integrity Project^®California, Inc., (EIPCa) has been documenting the gradual, step-by-step passage of laws over the last three decades that have eroded the government protections for fair, honest and transparent elections. Now in its 12th year of work in California, EIPCa has been consistently reporting its findings to several levels of government with little receptivity. Some of that documentation is on the EIPCa website. One report in particular, “The Golden State Agenda,” effectively exposes the apparently deliberate erosion of election integrity in the state. Californians are coming full circle to face the oppression of the contemporary authoritarians, asking themselves, “Do we fight for our rights, or do we flee?”

Many Californians have already voted with their feet and have fled the Golden State. Yet, this is a time when brave patriots need to take a stand for Freedom and bedrock American values – the God-given rights proclaimed by our brilliant founders long ago. Without fair, honest and transparent elections, we no longer have a true Constitutional Republic. California needs the bold and brilliant patriots to do the right thing in this time of need.

If you must or have chosen to stay in California, be part of the fight. Volunteer today with EIPCa and help us restore the voting rights of all Californians!

"THESE are the times that try men's souls. The summer soldier and the sunshine patriot will, in this crisis, shrink from the service of their country; but he that stands by it now, deserves the love and thanks of man and woman.

Tyranny, like hell, is not easily conquered; yet we have this consolation with us, that the harder the conflict, the more glorious the triumph...."
