Ballot Harvesting is defined as “the collection of absentee ballots from voters by a third party who then delivers them to election officials. At present, 27 states and the District of Columbia allow Ballot Harvesting. Partisans engaged in harvesting of ballots include party activists, campaign managers, consultants, and other political guns-for-hire with a vested interest in winning an election.”
“Ballot Harvesting over the last three election cycles has emerged as a major problem for anyone concerned about election integrity.”

About the Mid-term Election process…
The brain trust of the Republican party slept through the attack ads of the democrat party, totally failed to denounce these allegations during the election cycle when it mattered. Instead, they relied on the rosy scenario of a red wave, then stumbled badly on November 8th. One key variable in the 2022 Mid-term election is the focus of the two parties. Republicans focused on getting votes, while Democrats focused on getting ballots.
Given the election results, do we have any doubt about which focus worked?
As the chart indicates, in seven states the Dems over performed compared to the poll surveys, while the Reps performed close to the survey averages
# 2: The Republican Party must launch a national campaign to restore Election Integrity.
# 1: Republican Party develop Ballot Harvesting program for state and national elections. And seek legislation to oppose or limit all ballot harvesting programs in the 27 states where it is allowed.
