Maine's Democrat Attorney General Aaron Frey has delivered a crushing blow to his own party's election manipulation agenda, filing a brief with the Maine Supreme Court acknowledging that the state's expansion of ranked-choice voting directly violates the Maine Constitution.
The admission represents a rare moment of honesty from a Democrat official about the dubious legal foundation underlying these complex voting schemes that conservatives have long argued are designed to confuse voters and rig elections in favor of liberal candidates.
Frey's brief argues that what he calls "statutory wordsmithing" cannot override the clear constitutional requirements for how Maine conducts its elections. Translation: Democrats tried to get cute with the law and got caught red-handed violating their own state's founding document.
Another Liberal Voting Scheme Bites the Dust
This constitutional crisis in Maine is exactly what happens when the radical left tries to fundamentally transform America's election systems without following proper legal procedures. Instead of going through the legitimate constitutional amendment process, Democrats attempted to backdoor their ranked-choice agenda through legislative sleight of hand.
The timing couldn't be more perfect. As President Trump's second administration works tirelessly to restore election integrity nationwide, we're seeing Democrat election schemes crumble under basic legal scrutiny. It turns out that when you actually follow the Constitution – imagine that – these manipulative voting systems fall apart.
"This is what happens when Democrats put ideology over the rule of law," said one constitutional law expert. "They're so desperate to rig the system they'll violate their own state constitutions."
Maine voters deserve better than having their fundamental right to vote manipulated by complex schemes that even the state's top legal officer admits are unconstitutional. This case should serve as a warning to other states considering similar ranked-choice boondoggles.
How many other Democrat-controlled states are operating unconstitutional election systems right now? And more importantly, when will voters hold these constitution-violating officials accountable for their blatant disregard of the law?
