The report from LaRose’s OHIO's office is the latest to show how rare voter fraud is in American elections. A review published by The Associated Press in December of 25.5 million votes cast for president in Arizona, Georgia, Michigan, Nevada, Pennsylvania and Wisconsin — the six states critical to Biden’s victory — found just 475 potential cases of voter fraud, far below Biden’s margin of victory in any of the six states. And many of those cases turned out to be meritless as well. Officials in Pima County, Ariz., declined to pursue criminal charges in any of the 151 cases of potential voter fraud there, the county attorney’s office said last month. County Attorney Laura Conover said the system had worked, and in no case did a voter cast more than one ballot that was counted. Still, Trump and some Republican candidates have clung to lies about the results of the last election even as they look ahead to the midterm contests. Trump himself appeared in a television advertisement run on behalf of former Sen. David Perdue (Ga.), who lost a Senate runoff contest last January and is now challenging Georgia Gov. Brian Kemp in the Republican primary, to renew debunked claims of voter fraud.

You cannot possibly, after exchanging messages with me for > 10 years off and on, have concluded that I would EVER support taking rights from business owners. You have a selective memory. Either that of you never really got the point. Here's me in September trying to disabuse you of your notion that the right to employment supersedes the right of businesses to set criteria: Message 33492471 "Well, what if he wants to require masks? Or vaccinations? Or businesslike hair styles? Are those not all prerogatives of the business owner? Or are the owners' prerogatives only those that suit you as a customer? Or as a busybody? Some employers are requiring that all their employees be vaccinated. A couple of airlines are doing that. What about the companies requiring their customers be masked? Or vaccinated? What about an airline requiring its customers to be vaccinated?Since when can employers not set conditions of employment? Whatever happened to "no shirt, no shoes, no service" when it comes to masks or vaccinations? Do you support the prerogatives of businesses like Republicans used to? Or have you suddenly decided that the dreadlocked and shirtless can't be forced upon businesses but the unmasked or unvaccinated can depending upon your approval of their criteria? Airlines have long disallowed passengers on various lists, recently including people who refuse to wear masks or assault cabin crew. Everybody has a right to fly? To employment? Where's the consistency?"
