“We were told that the hall was full only to learn that a large group of union members were allowed to gain access to the hall,” Nesbitt said on Fox News’ “The Ingraham Angle.”
“Once we were able to gain access inside, following them, it was clear that Detroit city election workers were scanning and counting ballots for voters whose names did not appear on the voter rolls. And when we tried to challenge those, our challenges were largely ignored,” she claimed. (RELATED: Report: Donald Trump To Contest Election With Campaign-Like Rallies — Without Trump)
The Trump campaign has alleged that Republican observers were barred from scrutinizing the counting of ballots in battleground states like Pennsylvania and Nevada. Some videos circulating on the internet purporting to show voting fraud have been debunked as inaccurate.
“It’s very disheartening to hear so many denying that this is happening in Michigan. My experience in Detroit: Republicans were denied a meaningful access to observing the ballot counting process,” Nesbitt said Monday.
The Republican observer claimed that she and other GOP volunteers were locked out of the hall while “about 90% of the counting boards were inactive for about four hours.” She said during this time Republican poll challengers were trying to gain entry into the room but were denied access.
“They actually put up cardboard over the windows so that those folks couldn’t see what was happening inside” she alleged. “Honestly, I’ve been a poll challenger on various elections since 2012 and I have never seen anything like this. This raises a lot of concerns about the integrity of our elections and I sincerely hope that this is investigated to the fullest extent.” (RELATED: Ric Grenell: Trump Campaign Is ‘Not Being Allowed To Check’ Ballots At Nevada Polling Stations)
Host Laura Ingraham asked Nesbitt, “Why the fuss of not letting people in? They’re getting aggressive with some of the poll watchers … Why do that?”
“I truly believe that they were trying to wait us out; that they were trying to encourage Republicans to leave the room because they did not want us to see what was happening,” Nesbitt responded.
Despite President-elect Joe Biden’s declared presidential victory, Trump said Saturday that the race is “far from over” and cited “legitimate” legal challenges that he says will still bring him victory.

Trust me, I was just as surprised as all of you when I heard about this cookbook. After all, soda isn’t generally an ingredient used when firing up the stove, oven or grill.
Having said that, I love this move from Mountain Dew. I’m not sure there’s a more loyal customer base than Mountain Dew drinkers.
As we used to call it growing up, it’s truly the nectar of the gods.
Back in the day, I used to drink several Mountain Dews a day. It was like an injection of life into my soul. I’d crack them open throughout the day, and pretty much everyone I know back home does the exact same.
Now, those same people can start experimenting with these recipes. Who the hell wouldn’t want some Mountain Dew infused brisket?

The wags are having their fun with an election result that’s hinged upon whether Joe Biden garnered sufficient support from white voters to negate an apparent surge toward Donald Trump among minority groups. The president owes much of his margin in Florida to strong gains in Miami’s Cuban-American community, while in Texas he won largely-Hispanic Zapata County along the Mexican border, which Hillary Clinton won by more than 30 points four years ago. Not everyone is amused.
Writing in the New York Times, columnist Charles Blow declares himself “stunned” by the “personally devastating” news that exit polls (all disclaimers apply) show minority groups continuing their rightward trend of recent years. In what must surely be among the most noxious claims printed in recent years by The New York Times, he concludes that, “All of this to me points to the power of the white patriarchy and the coattail it has of those who depend on it or aspire to it. … Some people who have historically been oppressed will stand with the oppressors, and will aspire to power by proximity.”
Blow’s gross accusation follows “analyses” from several other writers blinded by staring incessantly through the same racial lens. Nikole Hannah-Jones of 1619-Project fame solves her conundrum by deciding that some minorities who support President Trump actually are white, while The Root’s Michael Harriot explains that such support is how they become white. Washington Post reporter Eugene Scott says they “support white supremacy” and his colleague Karen Attiah describes them as “going along to get along” with white supremacists as a “survival strategy.” A befuddled Paul Krugman, perhaps looking backward through his binoculars, declares that he has “no idea what the true lessons are.” (RELATED: The Multicultural Male Coalition That Could Give Trump Four More Years)
Turn the binoculars around, and it is easy to see a realignment of working-class voters, regardless of race, toward the party that expresses an interest in their economic concerns. The Democratic Party has become the party of college-educated professionals, focused on forgiving student debt and a “transition” from uncouth industries, ensuring the unfettered flow of unskilled immigrant workers, and framing education policy around the interests of teachers rather than students. Yes, they will raise taxes, but they will fight tooth-and-nail for the “SALT” deduction that gives a discount to owners of expensive homes in high-tax states. They will expand government programs, but their idea of “pro-family” policy is free childcare so both parents can work full-time. What they’d really like to talk to you about, if you have a minute, is climate change and racial justice.
The Republican Party has problems too. Certainly, it has its own struggles with questions of race. The tax-cut and free-trade playbook that has dominated right-of-center economic policy for the past 40 years is ill-suited to contemporary challenges and the party’s faith in a “supply-side” strategy, whereby the pursuit of profit by business owners and investors leads automatically to widespread prosperity for workers, has proven misplaced. The only major legislative achievement of 2017–18, when the GOP held both chambers of Congress and the White House, was, yes, another tax cut.
Still, Donald Trump has clearly changed the equation. While he has offered little in the way of substantive policy and governed mostly as a conventional supply-side Republican, there is a way in which, as the Roosevelt Institute’s Mike Konczal observed in a 2016 essay, “Trump is Actually Full of Policy.” In politics, policy is as much a matter of defining problems as offering concrete solutions; voters want to know who is focused on the issues in their lives. And there, Trump has spoken to workers in a way that other candidates in either party have not.
On the campaign trail, Trump emphasized people’s jobs, the importance of industries like manufacturing and professions like the trades, and the value people placed on their own places—the towns where they lived, and their roles as productive contributors to their communities. The problem was not a tax rate that discouraged investors from creating jobs, it was that investors preferred creating jobs in China. His “plan” was not to get everyone a college degree, or retrain them in some exciting new field, or help them move somewhere with greater opportunity, it was to make those things unnecessary. He was interested in “law and order,” not “critical race theory”; in “clean air and water,” not solving “global climate change”; in advancing American interests through foreign and immigration policy, not abstractly “reflecting our values”; in rising wages that allow you to support your family, not government programs that support your family because you cannot. Many people of all races feel the same way. (RELATED: DEMINT: The Left vs. The Working Class)
Translating such concerns into a durable coalition and a governing agenda takes time and an attention that Trump has not given it. Existing institutions like think tanks and publications must change their own approaches or else new ones must develop. Political leaders and young staffers alike must decide whether the approach is for them. The actual work of policy development and implementation must occur.
In all these areas, green shoots are emerging on the right-of-center. The quarterly journal American Affairs has been publishing in-depth critiques of economic orthodoxy and innovative alternatives for several years. At American Compass, we’ve been elaborating on the nation’s tradition of robust economic policy, strategies for reshoring manufacturing and a conservative future for the labor movement; we host a burgeoning membership group of policy staffers and writers building their own careers in this direction. Sens. Marco Rubio, Josh Hawley, and Tom Cotton have all distinguished themselves with thoughtful speeches, essays, and legislation, while administration officials like Robert Lighthizer, the U.S. Trade Representative, have changed the trajectory of American policy.
The idea of conservatives as the vindicator of workers’ interests may sound strange, but only because we have forgotten what conservatism means. The market fundamentalism that we call “conservative,” celebrating growth and markets without concern for their effects on family and community, and trusting that the invisible hand will invariably advance the interests of the nation, is libertarian. Conservatives are moving beyond it. And experience now suggests that, as they do, a broad-based, multi-ethnic coalition of working families could be eager to join them.
