NOV 4TH 2025
BOARD OF ELECTION RACES
WRITE-IN
A REPUBLICAN (YOURSELF?) FOR "INSPECTOR OF ELECTION"
VACANCIES
It is necessary for free and fair elections
that both major political parties are represented on Elections Boards,
otherwise it will be far easier to commit election fraud. Election
observers or watchers are not as effective as Election Board
members, and are often relegated to positions that do not allow them to
observe the election process in an effective manner. That is why it is
critical to the democratic process that both political parties are fairly
represented on Election Boards.
In Philadelphia, the GOP has many vacancies on
their local Elections Boards. On
Nov 4th, Election Day, Republicans can write-in themselves for
"Inspector of Elections", and even ask their neighbors who live in
the same division to support them by also writing-in their name on
the voting machines. As the "minority party" Republicans have a
right to the position of Inspector of Elections, if a Republican wants
it. If not, then a Democrat will more than likely get it. One vote for a
Republican is all we need to fill that position. And that vote can be
the voter writing-in themselves. It is that easy, although
others may have the same idea. So, it's good to get as many write-ins as
you can.
