The Amish Don't Vote. Why This Year Could
Be Different
Posted By: Imright, 11/3/2024 3:01:11 AM
The Amish traditionally don’t vote in presidential elections due to their faith-based beliefs and Christianity’s historic separatism from mainstream society. Still, this year brings a whole new ball game as the candidates seek support from the horse and buggy riding group. Since the Amish are a reliably conservative group given their faith-based convictions, reluctance to engage with people outside of their culture and lack of eagerness to conform to modern-day technology, the group can drastically shift the outcome of some rural states such as Pennsylvania, Ohio, Indiana, and Wisconsin. A report from Elizabethtown College recorded that about 90,000 Amish live in Pennsylvania, 84,000 live in Ohio, 26,365 live in Wisconsin,

Saturday Night Live's effort to give Kamala Harris some free publicity backfired spectacularly when NBC was forced to provide Donald Trump equal airtime. And the former president used that time to his full advantage.
SNL had initially refused to allow any presidential candidates to make cameos during their sketch comedy show but then tossed that faux integrity right out the window when Harris made a surprise appearance.
As per usual, Harris was awkward and couldn't contain her cackle. Oh, and she also plagiarized a skit that Trump performed in 2015.
In case you have not been paying attention – leftist groups around the country have been caught corrupting our elections by dumping tens of thousands of bogus ballot registrations into our voter rolls. This is taking place in state after state.
PENNSYLVANIA
Lancaster County, Pennsylvania city officials announced eight days ago that they were investigating a massive fraudulent voter registration operation investigation involving thousands of fraudulent voter registrations. At least 2,500 ballot registrations were in question.
On Saturday, Lehigh County, Pennsylvania announced that they were also investigating hundreds of fake ballot registrations that were turned in recently by a questionable voter registration group.
President Joe Biden’s border deputies invited four times more migrants in October than the number of extra jobs created by CEOs, according to data obtained by NewsNation.
Business groups created 12,000 additional jobs in September, amid an economic slowdown at the strike at Boeing. The 12,000 number was one-ninth of the 112,500 new jobs that were expected.But Biden’s deputies also invited 49,840 more parole migrants to fly or bus into the U.S. for jobs during October. Those “parole migrants” are welcomed by the Office of Field Operations (OFO) at the ports of entry along the border.But Biden’s deputies also invited 49,840 more parole migrants to fly or bus
As both presidential candidates make their last bid before voters head off to the polls on Election Day, the closing arguments for both portray two very different things. Former President Donald Trump has spent his last days campaigning in swing states and advocating how he will improve this country. On the other hand, Vice President Kamala Harris and her sidekick, Gov. Tim Walz (D-Minn.), have used the final stretch to evade the policy positions again but also do nothing else but attack Trump.
During his rally in Arizona on Saturday, Walz told a crowd that Trump was a “dictator” and “trying to overturn the Constitution.” He posed a hypothetical question,
CLAIM: CNN reporter Alayna Treene repeated a false claim that former President Donald Trump had called for former Rep. Liz Cheney (R-WY) to be executed.
VERDICT: False. Trump’s remarks about Cheney being eager to send troops into war without understanding how it feels were taken out of context. The former president was questioning how Cheney would feel if she were the one being sent to fight on the front lines of war.
“This violent rhetoric that Donald Trump has been using — including when he referred to Liz Cheney, just a couple days ago, saying that maybe they should line her up and shoot some barrels at her…” Treene said.

Call it what you want – corporate, legacy, mainstream—but whichever moniker you prefer, the fact remains the same: the majority of the nation’s press has completely sold out to the Democrat/progressive agenda and makes no secret of their leftist bias anymore. It’s despicable and shameful, but it is what it is.
They have been falsely claiming GOP nominee Donald Trump is Hitler-reincarnated for over a decade now, to the point where no thinking person even believes their vile rhetoric anymore.
But Politico is right back at it, just days before a presidential election, trying to twist the former and hopefully future president’s words into something that he didn’t mean at all.
Kamala Harris supporters across the country have been left rattled after receiving letters and postcards suggesting they will be “volunteering” to house migrant families.
While Democrats have championed open borders and humanitarian migrant policies, it seems when the issue is brought to their own doorsteps—literally—enthusiasm fades.
One Harris supporter in Shrewsbury, Massachusetts, was shocked after receiving what appeared to be a postcard from Harris’s campaign.
When she flipped it over, the message informed her that a family of migrants from Nicaragua would be moving into her home, even specifying the date and listing food and transportation needs.
A Brit who says she became a US citizen to vote for Donald Trump was cheered when she wore a trash bag to the polls last week to protest President Biden calling MAGA supporters “garbage.’’
MAGA Manhattanite Sophie Sassoon, a former fashion-industry worker, donned a black garbage bag cinched by a blazing-red Hermes belt and accompanied by a matching red Chanel bag and red Louboutin shoes.
“I wanted to be a chic garbage bag – almost as an experiment to show that this is what garbage looks like,” Sassoon told The Post. “People were cheering, giving me the thumbs up and honking.”

Doug Emhoff was campaigning in Cobb County, Georgia on Sunday when he let loose with the cringe.
My colleague Ward Clark wrote about some of it earlier, as he spoke about his relationship with Tim Walz. Emhoff spoke about how he gave him a big "bro hug." He also bragged about his wife being such a "bad***" (despite the fact that she was installed in an anti-democratic coup and received no primary votes from the American people for the nomination for the top position). But Emhoff wasn't quite finished with the cringe with that. There was more when he spoke about his wife, Kamala Harris His description
Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump released an ad on Sunday calling on Americans to go vote this week as the presidential election comes to a close.
“Hello to our great sports fans, and I hope you having a fantastic time,” Trump says in the ad that went viral as NFL games were being played across the country.
“We’re two days away from the most important election in the history of our country,” he said. “We’ve got to save our country, and it needs saving. It’s in very bad shape.”
Trump referenced this week’s jobs report that showed economic growth slowed to a near complete stop with only
Vice President Kamala Harris warned on Sunday that Americans may experience a repeat of the 2020 election wherein the winner was not decided the same night the polls closed.
In a post on X, Kamala Harris said that while she expects to win on Tuesday, she warned that it “will take time to count every vote.” “The margins are going to be close, but our campaign is on track to win this election. Americans all across the country are casting their votes in record numbers, ready to turn the page,” the vice president said. “It will take time to count every vote, and there may be
This is a switch. Governors of Oregon and Washington are readying the National Guard for election week. To keep citizens safe from Donald Trump supporters? No. To keep people safe from the leftist Antifastanis and rabble who have rioted or beaten up Americans on the street corners of Portland and Seattle since before the 2016 election.
Antifa, commie, and anarchists have big plans for Election Day 2024. (X) Ignoring the violence in previous years, governors of Oregon and Washington failed to bring peace to the streets when it counted in 2016, 2017, 2020, and 2021.

With the election just days away, people on both sides are on edge but things are looking very good for Trump.
This is causing widespread panic in Hollywood, one of the most reliably liberal parts of the country. Liberal celebrities have shown over and over again that they will vote Democrat no matter what is happening in the rest of the nation.
Wealthy celebs seem even more out of touch as they do not feel the economic pain that has burdened people everywhere else for over three years now.
If Hollywood is panicked, that is not a good sign for Harris.
New York Governor Kathy Hochul recently appeared on MSNBC and said that if you vote Republican, you’re anti-woman and anti-American.
It has been amazing in this election cycle, how Democrats have become so comfortable insulting and degrading their fellow Americans for the crime of disagreeing with them.
Their deranged rhetoric makes them look very desperate, like they know they’re losing.
New York Republican Lee Zeldin posted the video on Twitter/X: (X Video)

I think it wise to just vote and ignore the polls and pundits, many of whom are dealing from the bottom of the deck and bluffing. I’d also ignore those doomsters who claim on the basis of the 2020 election that it will be stolen. Sure, as I note below, there has been and will be a lot of cheating, but the Republicans are getting better at monitoring it and reducing it. Sure, the press is lying again, but as I show below, the legacy media has blown its credibility and alternate content providers are capturing audiences away from them.
This is what happens when Trump supporters are labeled “garbage,” “Nazis,” and “Fascists” by Democrat leaders and their media stenographers.
A violent leftist was arrested for beating a Trump supporter at a Bath, New York, grocery store on Friday.
60-year-old Robert Yott was arrested on Friday after he became aggressive and confronted a Trump supporter wearing a ‘Trump 2024’ hat at Tops Friendly Markets.
According to police, Yott repeatedly punched the Trump supporter in the face and broke his teeth.
WETM reported:
A Bath man is facing charges after he allegedly attacked a stranger in a grocery store for wearing a Trump hat.
One of the United States’ foremost white supremacists is urging his followers to support Vice President Harris in the presidential election next week.
Richard Spencer, an avowed racist, antisemite and admirer of Nazism who coined the term “alt-right” and was a featured speaker when he took part in the deadly 2017 rally in Charlottesville, Va., called Harris the “best manager of the American empire.”
Spencer — who also gained international recognition after yelling “Hail Trump! Hail our people!” and being greeted with Nazi salutes during a white nationalist event in November 2016 — also condemned former President Trump’s strong support of Israel.
Former President Donald Trump is poised to secure a significant electoral victory, potentially “sweeping battleground states,” according to Rasmussen’s head pollster, who sees the current race favoring Trump in the national popular vote, suggesting a larger “political realignment” is underway, and foreseeing an outcome that could echo — or even exceed — Ronald Reagan’s historic landslide win over Jimmy Carter in 1980.
In a striking forecast days before the 2024 presidential election, Rasmussen’s head pollster, Mark Mitchell, is suggesting that Donald Trump will secure a strong lead nationally and dominate in key battleground states, positioning him for a sweeping victory. Mitchell even foresees a potential flip
Former President Trump invited the members of the Roanoke College women’s swim team who stood up against the radical left after a transgender athlete tried to join their team on the stage at his rally in Salem, Virginia, on Saturday.
Before bringing the swimmers on stage, Trump reminded the audience of the team’s “brave” stand in defending their rights as female athletes after a trans athlete tried to join their team. “Last year, the radical left’s gender insanity arrived right here in Salem when a man was allowed to transfer onto the Roanoke College’s women’s swim team,” Trump said. “I just met them backstage. They’re great swimmers. …
Angry viewers noticed how Kamala Harris' SNL skit appeared to be eerily similar to one in which Donald Trump took part in while campaigning for president in 2015.
Harris could be seen talking to herself as she made a surprise appearance on Saturday night as she sat in front of a mirror, speaking with actress Maya Rudolph who was portraying the Democratic presidential candidate.
But viewers were quick to note how the sketch was strikingly similar to one performed nine years earlier by Trump. (Photos) Just as in Harris' cold open, Trump was also seen talking to himself through the mirror, and asking for himself for advice.
A “transgender” biological man who identifies as a woman has filed a lawsuit against Hooters for refusing to hire him — after he was already banned from the restaurant for sexually harassing waitresses.
The allegations in the lawsuit have caused leftist protesters to target the restaurant in Colonie, New York, twice.
“I’m suing Hooters for sex-based discrimination, on the basis of accommodation and on the basis of employment,” said Brandy Livingston, according to a report from News 10. “They would use male pronouns. They would refer to me as ‘he.'”
Livingston claims that the staff was also upset about his use of the women’s restroom.
The Pentagon is shirking its duty when it comes to providing active military members with the fundamental resources necessary to vote, according to three Republican congressmen. Reps. Brian Mast (R-FL), Mike Waltz (R-FL), and Bill Huizenga (R-MI) all signed a letter directed to Secretary of Defense Lloyd Austin demanding more resources for servicemembers.
“We urge you to mobilize all the necessary resources over the next seven days to give every American citizen wearing our nation’s uniform the opportunity to vote if they so desire, pursuant to all federal and state regulations governing elections,” the letter states.
The teenage boy accused of shooting two people dead on Halloween has refused to show up to court - but his mom took his place instead. Jaylen Dwayne Edgar, 17, who allegedly killed two men and injured eight other people in downtown Orlando, failed to show up to court Saturday morning. Instead, his mother made an emotional appearance on his behalf according to Fox 35 Orlando. She spoke only to confirm his identity. The suspect is expected to be charged as an adult due to the severity of the crimes he is accused of. The judge said he will remain in juvenile custody.
A teenager accused of killing three young girls at a Taylor Swift-themed dance class for young children in the United Kingdom has been charged with possessing an al Qaeda training manual and ricin poison.
Axel Muganwa Rudakubana, 18, already faces three murder charges, 10 counts of attempted murder and one count of knife possession, authorities said Tuesday. The new charges were filed under the country's Terrorism Act, police said.
The poison and PDF study, "Military Studies in the Jihad Against the Tyrants: The al Qaeda Training Manual," were found during a search of Rudakubana's home, police said. Tests later confirmed the substance found was ricin. The risk of exposure
