Casey DeSantis calls for voters from other states to flood Iowa to caucus...

[MyNameIsJonas]

Uh...

Link to tweet

If you don't have twitter: She asks voters from all over the country to come caucus in Iowa - which only Iowa voters can participate in.

Yikes.

[Takket]

1. "Casey DeSantis urges all of America, except for Iowa, to commit felony voter fraud"

That is the honest headline the media should be using.

[OAITW r.2.0]

4. Correct....why is this even allowed?

[Bettie]

15. It isn't...

caucus goers must be Iowa residents....but who knows what Republicans might do.

[paleotn]

19. She's just blathering. It ain't gonna happen.

[PufPuf23]

22. Doubt if the MSM would give you a job as a headline writer.

Have a MicroSoft news feed on the browser that came with pc.

Every headline is clickbait, sports or politics or whatever. Lots of desperately right wing crap.

[Bettie]

53. She does say

that people don't have to be a resident of Iowa to participate in the caucuses...which isn't true, but she does say that in the clip.

[Ocelot II]

2. Does she even know that voters in Iowa caucuses have to be Iowa residents?

Or does she know and not care?

[Takket]

3. everything with rethugs is projection....

that is why the scream about voter fraud, because they are all trying (and failing) to commit it

[paleotn]

21. Desperation.

Her dream of being the Eva Braun of Gilead is shattered.

[Quakerfriend]

30. Yes. Sort of reminds me of DeSantis and

Mastriano declaring that PA would be the next FL.

[TheKentuckian]

51. They may have had more success than we are cognizant of

The inclination seems too baked in to just be without some success to build on.

[NowISeetheLight]

11. Dont Care

RepubQcans don't care about little things like the law or the Constitution.

[ShazzieB]

32. Whether she knows or not, she definitely doesn't care.

I'm sure that Lady Macbeth...err, Casey DeSantis...doesn't give a rat's ass what's legal in Iowa and what isn't.

I really hope people don't take her advice, though, because it could only lead to trouble. I could just see the non Iowans getting mad when they aren't allowed in, and logjams forming when legitimate Iowa voters can't get past them. And the angry Trump cultists beating up the non Iowan trouble makers for getting in their way, etc.

On second thought, I doubt that Ronnie D has enough supporters to create that much of a problem. Still, I wouldn't want to be one of the people trying to get voters signed in at any of those caucuses. Yikes!

[Delphinus]

5. She says in there

that you don't have to be a resident of Iowa to caucus - is that really true? How could it possibly be true?

[MyNameIsJonas]

7. It's not. You must be a resident of Iowa to caucus.

[Delphinus]

35. Thank you

The media should be calling her delusional.

[LiberalFighter]

6. The media need to blast the hell out of them.

[DET]

9. Of Course They Do, But They Won't

Notice the lack of pushback from the Fox bimbo.

[niyad]

43. Please edit your last sentence.

[DET]

47. Some Perspective, Please

I assume you take exception to the term ‘bimbo’, which Wikipedia defines as follows: “Bimbo is slang for a conventionally attractive, sexualized, naive, and unintelligent woman.[1] The term was originally used in the United States as early as 1919 for an unintelligent or brutish man.[2]” Respectfully, I do not consider the word bimbo a sexist term. Moreover, that term perfectly describes the vacuous Fox woman who was interviewing Casey DeSantis. I’ve been a feminist for over 50 years, and I’ve experienced the worst misogyny you can imagine. I know sexism when I see it.

Personally, I can’t get exercised over the current fixation on using the ‘correct’ term to refer to people of different sexes, ethnicities, sexual preferences, etc. I do my best to try to reflect current usage, but I honestly don’t care. I think it is a distraction from issues of far greater importance - like actual sexism, racism, and LBGTQ hatred.

[niyad]

48. SadIy, I understand the perspective perfectly.

[MOMFUDSKI]

8. Her desire to be Jackie Kennedy is very

Unbecoming.

[paleotn]

25. More like Eva Braun.

[jls4561]

34. You wanted to be Jackie O

But those who’ve seen you say “Hell, no!”

[niyad]

44. Could you please amend or delete this sexist post?

[Iris]

54. She is no Jackie O and getting married at a Disney resort is not how a modern Camelot gets started

[madaboutharry]

10. Who can caucus in Iowa? You can caucus if you meet the following requirements:

You must be eligible to vote in the state of Iowa.
You will be 18 years old by Nov. 5, 2024. That means if you're 17 and turn 18 between the date of the caucuses and the general election, you can caucus.
You must be registered as a Democrat or Republican. If you're registered under a third party or no party, you won't be able to caucus

Casey DeSantis should be arrested right now for encouraging people to commit voter fraud.

[gopiscrap]

12. What a fucking idiot

I swear to God sometimes I am thinking voters should have to pass a civics test

[Cha]

13. Shows herself for the Fucking Cheaters they are.

[tekriter]

24. A contrary opinion from me...

Stay absolutely silent on this before the caucus. If hundreds of out-of-state voters try to go to the GOP caucus sites, then call every reporter they know and point out the blatant attempt at voter fraud.

[Cha]

29. Really.. the gov & his spouse are Voter Fraudsters.

[madaboutharry]

14. She is sitting next to a graduate of Yale Law School,

who also knows what she is saying is a lie.

[Deuxcents]

16. Can the Democratic Leadership in Iowa file charges?

[Johonny]

17. Is there some place out side of Florida that likes

Either of these two people?

[Sky Jewels]

18. What a couple of super freaks.

They both skeeve me out to the Spinal-Tapian level of 11.

[modrepub]

20. Typical Republican Politician

Encourage others to do things they aren't willing to do themselves because they'd be in a heap of trouble if they did.

Well, the jokes on DeSantis, he could urge all his followers to go to Iowa to caucus AND HE'D F-ING STILL LOOSE!

P.S. Do yourself (and your wife) a favor, drop out and slink back into the hole you crawled out of before the Orange fiend wipes your sorry a-- in the FL primary.

[Bernardo de La Paz]

26. I'd rather he lose than have him be loose. . . . nt

[Bernardo de La Paz]

23. Either R election fraud or she has gross mental deficiency. I think it is former

But let them waste their money on driving and lodging for no effect. Well, boost the Iowa economy a tad.

[Freethinker65]

27. Encouraging DeSantis voters to incite chaos into the Iowa caucuses to deny votes to the rightful nominee? Hmmm.

[MustBeTheBooz]

28. SMDH...

What fucking idiots.

[Maru Kitteh]

31. "The Desantii"

Oh Casey. Making plans for Creeeeesmasss decorations are we?

[Blue Owl]

39. LOL

The DeSantii secret handshake involves a mixture of pudding and snot….

[rubbersole]

33. Ghost bus caravan headed to Iowa!

Congressional hearings immediately!

[aeromanKC]

36. Um, pretty sure these people who caucus in these Iowa towns kind of know who everybody is

Just saying.......

[Iggo]

37. LOL ... Voter Fraud. (n/t)

[keithbvadu2]

38. Encouraging outsiders to influence/take over Iowans' republican caucus. A great talking point for the other candidates.

[tanyev]

52. I'm sure Trump will have a field day with it.

[doc03]

40. I will catch the next flight out tomorrow. Do they have an airport there? nt

[DemocraticPatriot]

41. Desperation ??!!!

If they have to recruit voters from other states (who can't vote in Iowa),
they are clearly fearful that they will fail to even make second place there.....


DeStantis in third place in Iowa will end his campaign.....

and rightly so.

[SouthernDem4ever]

42. Did she lend him her white boots again?

[brooklynite]

45. Actually...nothing in the rules says you have to be an Iowa resident...

Remember, this is a PARTY Caucus, not a STATE Primary.

https://www.iowagop.org/caucus-faq/

[MyNameIsJonas]

46. This just isn't true.

The caucuses still have to abide by state law.

There's flexibility in how parties can run their caucuses but that doesn't mean they can make up any law they want (like allow for 10 year olds to vote - or non-citizens).

You can read about it here:

https://www.legis.iowa.gov/docs/publications/LGI/90/attachments/HF716.html

State law stipulates that a voter at the caucus must be a resident of their precinct.

[ZonkerHarris]

49. She thirsty, and desperate.

[MagickMuffin]

50. Is this how they "won" Florida?

Makes one wonder!
