The big question

Posted November 16, 2024 4:00 am

According to the Federal Election Commission, here are campaign spending numbers for 2024:

Presidential candidates: Democrat: $1,786,716,593; Republican: $560,776,464

Senate candidates: Democrat: $909,010,512; Republican: $473,906,421

House candidates: Democrat: $838,103,395; Republican: $784,464,610

This smells really fishy. The Democrats have overspent the GOP on every level, yet the GOP has won the presidency, the Senate majority, and the House majority as well.

It’s the GOP supporters who hold far more money and the GOP opened the door to unlimited political funding, yet they “let” the Dems outspend them by a wide margin — and still managed to win overwhelmingly in all three categories.

If the GOP supporters and candidates were all aware that “the fix is in,” then — and only then - would they look upon campaign spending as a waste of money.

Now that we know that the GOP did, in fact, steal the 2024 election, all we have to do is to find out how they did it.
