Democrats continue bad faith operation to rig elections

 Washington Examiner:

The House Democrats’ campaign arm is trying to promote far-right candidates in primary races in swing districts as it hopes to create an easier path for the party to flip and retain seats in November.

The strategy, described by two GOP operatives as “risky” for Democrats, comes as the party faces headwinds in keeping the majority in the lower chamber during the midterm election cycle.

Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee Chairman Sean Patrick Maloney (D-NY) stood by the tactic when pressed about whether the method could backfire, potentially leading to candidates further from the Democrats’ ideology being elected to Congress, during an MSNBC appearance Tuesday.

“We have a high bar for that. I think if you're going to do that, you need to really understand what you're doing. If you're talking about trying to pick your opponent, you might see us do that, sure,” he said.

In the latest attempt to meddle in GOP primaries, the DCCC is set to spend $425,000 on a new TV ad promoting pro-Trump candidate John Gibbs in his effort to oust freshman Rep. Peter Meijer (R-MI), a centrist who was one of the 10 Republicans to vote in favor of impeachment, in the race for the GOP nomination for Michigan’s 3rd Congressional District, which President Joe Biden won by 9 percentage points.

It would certainly backfire for voters like me who plan to vote against every Democrat on the ballot.  In fact, I can't wait to vote against Democrats.  In the GOP primary, I will vote for the candidate who has the best chance of winning.
