March 9, 2021 (LifeSiteNews) — Local officials in Texas, New Jersey, and Mississippi have been indicted on nearly 200 total election fraud charges, state attorney generals have announced in recent days.

In Texas, a judicial officer and three other individuals were arrested last month on 150 charges of election fraud, according to a news release by the state attorney general’s office.

A Medina County, Texas, justice of the peace, Tomas Ramirez, was arrested on Feb. 11, after a grand jury indicted him earlier that week. Ramirez faces charges of organized election fraud and over a dozen counts of illegal possession of a ballot or ballot envelope.

Leonor Rivas Garza, Eva Ann Martinez, and Mary Balderrama were arrested along with Ramirez. Their charges include illegal voting, election fraud, acting as an agent, and tampering with government records.

The attorney general’s office noted that the indictments center around allegations of illegal vote harvesting at Texas nursing homes, which impacted 2018 county races. Ramirez was elected as a justice of the peace that year, although he has since been suspended from his post.

Less than a week after Texas announced the Medina election fraud arrests, the New Jersey attorney general’s office revealed that councilmen from the city of Paterson were indicted for alleged interference in a special election last May.

The councilmen, Alex Mendez and Michael Jackson, won their primary races in May, although they and two other campaign workers were charged with fraud within weeks of the election. New Jersey voting was overwhelmingly conducted by mail-in ballot in 2020.

Mendez and Jackson both were indicted by a state grand jury in late February on election fraud, record tampering, fraud in casting mail-in votes, unauthorized possession of ballots, and falsifying records. Mendez was indicted on charges of false voter registration as well.

The attorney general began probing irregularities in Paterson after U.S. Postal Service inspectors reported finding hundreds of mail-in ballots stuffed in mailboxes. The county elections board rejected over 800 Paterson ballots, and a New Jersey judge later invalidated the results of the race.

Late last week, a judge also voided a municipal election in Mississippi. In his decision, Judge Jeff Weill, who was appointed to the case by the state supreme court, said that 78% of absentee ballots cast in a June run-off election in Aberdeen, Mississippi, were invalid. 83 regular ballots were counted despite lacking signatures of election workers, he added.

Judge Weill issued a bench warrant for a notary, Dallas Jones, who signed off on problematic ballots and admitted to violating election protocol. Jones has since been arrested. She had testified that she corrected ballot paperwork of a local official’s father at the official’s house in June and authorized “about 30 something ballots” while there.

Election fraud in Aberdeen implicated the town’s police chief and a former mayor, as well as one of the candidates for the municipal council, all of whom broke voter intimidation and harassment laws, Judge Weill said.

Weill has called for a new election, which is set to be scheduled on Tuesday.

The so-called 'Equality Act' contains deadly poison for Christian democracy in the United States. And, its harmless-sounding name tries to hide this insidious reality.

But, unfortunately, Pelosi and company have JUST PASSED this morally repugnant bill in the US House of Representatives.

Pro-life and pro-family organizations, as well as Christian churches and the US Conference of Catholic Bishops, and freedom-loving groups everywhere, are now sounding the alarm.

Wake up, America, this is RED ALERT time!

This petition, therefore, calls on every US Senator to vigorously oppose and reject this bill.

Yes, it's THAT important.

The bill has nothing to do with "equality," or with extending the 1964 Civil Rights Act, which is how it is being touted by the leftists in the mainstream media.

It is, rather, one of the MOST EXTREME anti-life, pro-LGBT indoctrination bills ever proposed.

It has been described as a short-list of the worst possible elements of the Radical Left's agenda in Congress...and, REMEMBER, it has just passed the House!

We need to tell all US Senators, in no uncertain terms, that WE WILL NOT ACCEPT this outrageous attack on our freedoms and on life, itself!

SIGN AND SHARE THIS URGENT PETITION, TODAY!

And, after you have signed this petition, please CLICK HERE to DIRECTLY CONTACT YOUR U.S. SENATORS, and tell them to oppose this assault on our freedoms of thought, speech, conscience and religion.

Thank you!

FOR MORE INFORMATION:

Below are some of the devastating critiques of 'Equality Act,' leveled by some of the best conservative, Christian minds in the country.

ON LIFE:

Tony Perkins, president of the Family Research Council (FRC), has written that the 'Equality Act' will include, "the largest expansion of taxpayer-funded abortion this country has ever seen.” 

"Under this big new umbrella of 'discrimination,'" continued Perkins, "any American who doesn’t want to fund, offer, perform, or participate in abortion on demand will have no real choice. They can conform — or they can be punished."

"Every wall that’s been built between abortion and the government would come crashing down, including the Hyde Amendment, the pro-conscience Weldon Amendment, and several international barriers that keep our country from exporting abortion."

ON CHRISTIANITY, RELIGIOUS FREEDOM and LGBT INDOCTRINATION:

Lloyd Marcus, of the American Thinker publication, has written about the 'Equality Act' in the following terms:

"LGBTQ enforcer and homosexual Democrat congressman David Cicilline is sponsor of the Equality Act. Cicilline's evil bill is the most aggressive assault on our constitutional religious liberties in U.S. history...If the Equality Act becomes the law of the land, every outrageous, tyrannical demand [of LGBTQ activists/enforcers] will become reality."

And, Liberty Counsel Action, a law and policy education, training and advocacy organization which, among other things, advances religious freedom, the sanctity of human life, and the family has extensively criticized the 'Equality Act'.

On their webpage, dedicated to analyzing the 'Equality Act', which you can access below, Liberty Counsel Action state: "The 'Equality' Act' elevates 'sexual orientation and gender identity' to the same protected category as race. It will violate the religious freedom of Americans in numerous ways."

The go on to list the areas of life which this will affect: "It will impact all employers, including religious and non-profit organizations; contractors; houses of worship; public, private, and religious schools; curriculum; bathrooms; sports; daycare providers; shelters; hospitals; places of gatherings; entertainment providers; counselors; foster care and adoption; biological parents; landlords; anywhere providing a “good, service, or program,” including those advertised online; transportation drivers; and all local, state, and federal entities and many other areas."

And, as they note: "[T]here is NO RELIGIOUS EXEMPTION to this bill!"

Taking into account all of these potential threats to Christian democracy, Life and religious freedom, it is easy to see how the so-called 'Equality Act' has been called a "poison pill."

It is imperative that the US Senate vigorously reject this bill, AND EXPOSE IT FOR WHAT IT REALLY IS.

Please SIGN this urgent petition, TODAY!

Recent election fraud indictments in Mississippi, Texas, and New Jersey follow numerous similar incidents across the U.S., flying in the face of Democrats’ insistence that mail-in voting, which is banned in other industrialized countries, is free of serious fraud risks.

H.R. 1, or the “For the People Act,” which passed in the House last week without a single Republican vote, would force states to take up universal mail-in voting and end voter ID requirements, among other things. The attorney generals of Texas, Mississippi, and eighteen other states have denounced the bill as an unconstitutional attempt that “usurps states’ authority.”
