In a significant move for election integrity, five Connecticut Democrats have been charged for their involvement in a massive election fraud scheme. The beleaguered Democrats are alleged to have violated election law by forging signatures, registering non-citizens to vote, changing votes after they were cast, and harvesting ballots so they could be delivered to drop boxes.
For context, conservatives have long theorized about the major flaws in election security, specifically in blue cities. Absentee voting, especially prominent in the 2020 election, has been a target of critics who point to verified cases of ballot stuffing and other shady tactics to bolster their arguments.
In any case, the news was posted to X on February 21, 2025. A viral post read, “ELECTION INTEGRITY: Despite claims election fraud is a myth, CT Democrat Party vice chair Wanda Geter-Pataky turns herself into state police on election fraud charges after being caught stuffing ballot boxes in the 2023 Democrat Primary.”
In the comments under the post, conservatives were incensed by the apparent fraud. One of the comments said, “Election fraud is not a “myth”, that’s MSM speak. Election fraud is a reality, a threat to our Republic.
Trump must address elections, codify Voter ID, chain of custody and make it illegal to use mail in voting unless there is a valid medical reason.”
Building on that point, others stressed how important election integrity is for American democracy. One such comment read, “This is a serious issue that needs full transparency and accountability. Integrity in elections is crucial for maintaining trust in our democracy.” Another said, “People must go to jail and we must enact same day and paper voting laws. Otherwise, they’ll steal another one. And if that happens, it’s over for us as a republic.”
Continuing the comments, other responses hoped Trump would make sweeping changes to election law. A reply stated, “That was one of the things Trump ran on was honest, fair elections. He’s been super busy fire hosing the system!! 
I’m sure he hasn’t forgotten voter integrity. Wouldn’t you love to see his todo list?? 
” Another user tied this to Trump’s recent move to defund USAID, “USAID funded the election fraud with our tax dollars. She and all of the election thieves need to be held accountable for trying to subvert democratic elections.”
Rounding out the responses, conservatives blasted the Democrats for their blatant corruption. One comment on this topic read, ‘Dems are committing election fraud as they try to convince the public there is no election fraud! Anyone who believes anything the crooked dems say is a complete fool!” Another response said, “you know if they cheat in their own primary…..they will do anything to beat the other party.”
