When, in the course of human events, it becomes necessary for a free people to cast off the pervasive and insidious manipulations that corrupt their electoral process, and to reclaim their unalienable right to a government chosen by their true, untainted will, a decent respect for the judgment of mankind compels them to declare the causes which impel this severance and the reforms necessary to secure their liberty.
We hold these truths to be self-evident: that all citizens are endowed by their Creator with the right to choose their representatives through elections that are free, fair, simple, transparent, and verifiable by every citizen, regardless of education or means; that the consent of the governed, expressed through the sacred act of voting, is the sole legitimate source of governmental authority; that when any system, technology, or cabal—whether domestic or foreign—subverts this consent through fraud, coercion, complexity, or obfuscation, it is the right and duty of the people to reject such tyranny and institute reforms rooted in clarity, accessibility, and public oversight. The integrity of elections, conducted with hand-marked, hand-counted paper ballots under the watchful eyes of citizens, is the cornerstone of a free republic, and no machine, bureaucracy, or unaccountable actor should stand between the people and their voice.
The history of recent electoral practices in these United States reveals a relentless pattern of abuses, all designed to erode the sanctity of the vote and usurp the will of the people. To prove this, let facts be submitted to a candid world:
- The suppression of eligible voters through purges of registration rolls, intimidation at polling places, miscommunication of voting times and locations, and barriers targeting minorities, and the vulnerable, calculated to silence their voices.
- The creation of fraudulent identities, registration of deceased or fictitious voters, and exploitation of lax verification to inject phantom ballots, diluting the will of legitimate citizens.
- The manipulation of ballots through stuffing, harvesting, discarding, or altering votes, whether physical or digital, often concealed by broken chains of custody or fabricated emergencies.
- The tampering with electronic voting systems through hacking, malware, backdoors, or counterfeit equipment, rendering machines untrustworthy and vulnerable to undetected fraud.
- The coercion and bribery of voters, poll workers, and officials, exploiting desperation or greed, while complicit law enforcement and judges shield perpetrators from accountability.
- The misreporting of results through delayed tallies, falsified records, sabotaged audits, and redefined verification processes to obscure discrepancies.
- The infiltration by domestic and foreign bad actors engaging in 🇺🇸manipulation and cyberattacks on voter databases and systems, compromising the sovereignty of our democratic process.
- The use of dark money, illegal funding, and fake organizations to tilt campaigns, siphon resources, and mislead citizens from genuine reform efforts.
- The deployment of disinformation, psychological operations, deepfakes, and media manipulation to confuse, demoralize, or mislead voters, sowing division and distrust.
- The insider threats from corrupt officials, infiltrated grassroots organizations, and manipulated legal processes, including lawfare, gerrymandering, and court-stacking, to entrench power against the people’s will.
- The systemic exploitation of legal ambiguities, weak oversight, centralized control, and unaccountable technologies, creating fertile ground for fraud under the guise of efficiency.
- The reliance on complex electronic voting machines, which obscure the counting process, lack transparency, and expose elections to manipulation, distancing citizens from direct oversight.
- The centralization of voter registration and election management, removing local control and empowering unaccountable entities to dictate outcomes.
- The denial of public access to election records, such as cast vote records and chain-of-custody documentation, under pretexts of proprietary concerns, exorbitant fees, or misinterpretations of retention periods.
- The failure to safely limit absentee voting, which, without rigorous scrutiny, invites fraud through unverifiable ballots that cannot guarantee secrecy or integrity.
In every stage of these oppressions, we have sought redress through petitions, lawsuits, public forums, and tireless advocacy, only to be met with denial, delay, or accusations of undermining our Constitutional Republic. We have proposed reforms to restore trust, such as returning voter registration to county control, limiting absentee ballots, conducting elections on a single day in small precincts, and counting hand-marked paper ballots under public scrutiny. We have demonstrated, through efforts like those of citizens advocating for hand-counted elections, that simple, transparent methods are not only feasible but essential to reclaiming our electoral process. Yet those in power have dismissed our pleas, obstructed transparency, and clung to systems that obscure the people’s will. A system that permits such abuses, that entrusts the vote to opaque machines and unaccountable bureaucracies, is unfit to serve a free nation.
We have not been silent in our resolve. We have educated our fellow citizens through workgroups, demonstrations, and public audits, exposing scandals like corrupted cast vote records and manipulated voter rolls. We have called for elections to be conducted in small precincts of no more than 1,500 citizens, with paper ballots dropped into translucent containers, counted by hand under high-definition video, and verified by bipartisan citizens. We have urged counties to reclaim sole custody of voter registration, verified in-person with witnessed signatures, and to publish read-only voter lists in a universal format for public cross-referencing. We have advocated for limiting absentee ballots to those with proven need, scrutinized rigorously to prevent fraud, and for designating a single national voting day to eliminate staggered manipulation. Yet these efforts have been met with resistance, bureaucratic inertia, or accusations of mistrust, leaving us no choice but to declare our independence from this corrupted system.
We, therefore, the citizens of the United States of America, in solemn assembly, appealing to the Supreme Judge of the world for the rectitude of our intentions, do, in the name and by the authority of the people, solemnly publish and declare that we are, and of right ought to be, free from the tyranny of election manipulation; that we reject complex, untrustworthy machines and centralized systems that obscure our will; that we demand elections conducted as follows:
- Voter Registration under the sole custody of counties, with eligibility verified in-person every two to four years, using paper registration cards with witnessed signatures, stored by precinct, and published as read-only lists in a universal format for public cross-referencing, with a national unique voter number to ensure integrity.
- Limited Absentee Ballots, restricted to those with proven need, subjected to extreme scrutiny, identified distinctly for military and non-military voters, and potentially verified with digital ballot choice hashes to enhance integrity without compromising secrecy.
- One-Day Voting on a national holiday, with standardized start and end times across the country, conducted in small precincts of no more than 1,500 citizens, using hand-marked paper ballots dropped into translucent, locked containers under continuous video surveillance.
- Hand-Counted Ballots, tabulated where cast by bipartisan citizens and witnesses using state-approved methods, with results posted immediately outside precincts and all records—ballot images, tally sheets, chain-of-custody documents, and videos—published on county websites for public verification by all.
- Public Auditing, accessible to all citizens, including students in grades 6-12 as a civics exercise, who may re-tabulate ballots, compare results, and report discrepancies through standardized county forms, with advanced students analyzing statistics for inorganic patterns, all celebrated as acts of democratic engagement.
We are absolved from acquiescence to processes that betray our consent, and we assert our power to reform our elections, restore local control, ensure exhaustive public access to all records, and establish ironclad safeguards against fraud, coercion, and interference. For the support of this Declaration, with a firm reliance on the protection of divine Providence, we mutually pledge to each other our Lives, our Fortunes, and our sacred Honor.
It is NOW up to YOU to share this everywhere. If enough see it, we can create the necessary change. Share, share, share!
