In a stunning admission that has left Democrat election manipulators scrambling, Maine's Democrat Attorney General Aaron Frey filed a brief with the state's Supreme Court acknowledging that expanding ranked-choice voting violates the Maine Constitution.

The brief, which Frey described as "statutory wordsmithing," essentially admits what constitutional conservatives have been saying all along - these complex voting schemes are nothing more than end-runs around our founding documents designed to rig elections in favor of liberal candidates.

Democrat Admits His Own Party's Scheme Is Illegal

Think about the irony here, Patriots. A Democrat AG - someone who should be cheerleading his party's election "innovations" - is forced to tell Maine's highest court that his own party's voting expansion doesn't pass constitutional muster. That's how blatantly unconstitutional this ranked-choice nonsense really is.

Ranked-choice voting, pushed heavily by left-wing groups across the country, allows voters to rank candidates in order of preference rather than selecting just one. When no candidate gets a majority, the weakest candidates are eliminated and their votes redistributed - a process that critics rightfully call "ballot harvesting with extra steps."

"This is exactly the kind of election manipulation the Founders warned us about - complex schemes designed to confuse voters and produce outcomes that don't reflect the true will of the people."

Maine already uses ranked-choice voting for federal elections, but the proposed expansion would have applied it to state races as well. Now even their own Democrat AG admits it violates state constitutional requirements.

Why This Matters for Every American

This isn't just about Maine, folks. Democrats have been pushing ranked-choice voting schemes across the country as part of their broader election manipulation playbook. When even a Democrat attorney general admits these schemes violate constitutional principles, it should serve as a warning to every state considering similar "reforms."

President Trump's decisive 2024 victory proved that when elections are conducted fairly and transparently, the American people choose conservative leadership. No wonder Democrats keep inventing new ways to complicate the simple act of voting.

Will other Democrat AGs finally admit their election schemes violate the Constitution, or will Maine's Aaron Frey stand alone in his moment of honesty?

Finally! We've been saying this for years - RCV was rammed through without proper constitutional consideration. The AG should have reviewed this BEFORE it was implemented, not after we've already had multiple elections under an unconstitutional system.

Exactly right. How many election results are now questionable because of this?

This is what happens when Democrats try to change election rules to benefit themselves without following proper procedures. The Maine Constitution exists for a reason!

About time someone admitted what we all knew - RCV is just another Democrat scheme to rig elections in their favor.

I voted against RCV both times it was on the ballot because it seemed like a way to manipulate elections. My gut was right - if it violates our state constitution, why wasn't this caught during the legal review process?

Because they didn't WANT to find problems with it. Political agenda over constitutional law.
