The way to win the 2024 Election is to preserve, validate and reconcile all the ballots counted in the Election.
Venezuela and other communist countries are notorious for holding fraudulent elections. The AP reports that Venezuela’s Opposition Party in the recent election prevented this by taking the official vote count sheet before the communist Maduro regime could steal another election.
This is what American Republicans should be prepared for in all swing states in November

Venezuela’s shocking declaration came 24 hours after polls closed in the presidential election.
With the confident tone of someone who is constantly considered the underdog, opposition leader Maria Corina Machado announced that her coalition has collected more than two-thirds of the vote count sheets from polling centers nationwide, showing President Nicolás Maduro has lost yet again. offer.
Tally sheets known as actas – several-foot-tall printouts that resemble shopping receipts – have long been considered key evidence of election results in Venezuela. Members of the opposition know that they must get as much as they can to dispute the unexpected election results that will be announced by the electoral authorities.
…Tens of thousands of volunteers have participated in training sessions across the country in recent months. They know that according to the law, they can enter the polling center on Election Day, installed near the voting machines, from before the polls open until the results have been sent electronically to the National Electoral Council in the capital, Caracas.
…On Sunday, officials tried to block opposition volunteers from election centers, and in some places, they succeeded. But elsewhere, the volunteers did not waver, and when they were at the polling center, they did not leave, in some cases until 11 p.m.
“They took courage with the law in hand, with the manual of the polling station in hand, and they were able to enter,” Machado said Sunday, before the polls closed. He called party representatives and other volunteers “the heroes of this process.”
The party’s 90,000 representatives were instructed to take copies of tally sheets – printed from electronic voting machines after the polls closed – before the results were sent to council.
“Our representatives have the right to the tally sheet,” Machado said. “No representative leaves the election center without documents in hand.”
After the 2020 election, many Americans believe that the results were stolen because they should not be certified and do not want to see that happen again. Ballots are cast in ballot boxes, by mail, and on election day. But many people believe that many of these ballots are invalid.
Responding to the 2020 Election
In response to concerns with the 2020 election, the election integrity group was formed with the aim of addressing the weaknesses in the US election that occurred in 2020. Some people believe that having a large turnout in 2024 will overcome the possibility of losing the election. But others are unsure and worried about the results of certified fraud. The electoral integrity group formed in 2020 is working to ensure that the 2024 elections are fair and legitimate.
One group working to clean up voter rolls is People’s Audit. So far, People’s Audit has identified records on voter rolls in Florida, Texas, Georgia and North Carolina as invalid. The group also began work in other swing states and partnered with volunteers in counties across the state to clean up voter rolls. Working with volunteers, People’s Audit believes it has cleaned up more than 1 million voter registration issues in Florida since 2020 alone.
Another group called United Sovereign Americans seeks to legitimize the US election process and system. The group has filed lawsuits in Maryland and Pennsylvania and plans to file in 18 additional states. It has conducted a peer-reviewed analysis and found 29 million apparently ineligible voter registrations, 10 million votes cast by those ineligible registrations, and 2 million more votes counted than voters cast, resulting in a 13% voter error rate, the bigger one. than the electoral law provides. United Sovereign Americans plans through education and litigation strategies to ensure a legally valid election in 2024 that is fair, accurate, and credible.
FATE 2024
Another group called FATE 2024 was formed by a group of experts and Americans working hard to help ensure a secure 2024 election. This group supports the work of The Peoples Audit and United Sovereign Americans and many other groups in their efforts to ensure free and fair elections in 2024.
The experts at FATE 2024 concluded that whether the election machines will be used or not in the 2024 Elections, and no matter how many votes are counted, the paper ballots must agree with the final result. To be sure, these experts plan a process that expands what the opposition parties are doing in Venezuela.
Voting machines are used in Venezuela and the US. However, the public observation, recording and reporting required to secure elections is more complex and robust in the US because the US has vote-by-mail and early voting. Venezuela has only one day of voting. According to Pew Research, by 2020, most states will only support in-person voting.
Below is a chart showing the actions necessary to ensure confidence and accuracy in US elections. Reconciliation must be performed daily at precincts and vote-by-mail counting centers and verified through observation, record collection, and independent validation. Corrections must be addressed prior to certification.
Personal voting program:
Early Voting Locations
Observations: The public must observe the following as permitted by law:
- Place the box inside or outside the polling location
- Voting acceptance and other election system equipment and supplies
- Protected tabulators and public count displays before and after polls close during early voting
- E-pollbooks are counted before and after polls close during early voting
- Counting of signed votes
- Counting of elected and unelected votes
- A manual cross-check was conducted to verify the number of votes and votes cast
Recording: Observers must make written notes or take pictures of the following as permitted by law:
- Daily open and close count of Public and Protected tabulators
- Open and close e-pollbook counts every day
- Number of signed voting passes issued
- Daily Precinct and Preliminary Voting Reconciliation Reports
- Seal
- Any area or activity in the vote processing that does not open signatures or ballots
Report: The above information must be provided to election officials, political candidates/parties, election integrity groups, or law enforcement, if required.
Reconciliation: Implemented daily with unreconciled items handled.
Election Day
Observations: Same as early voting plus tabulator tapes and e-pollbook.
Records and Reports: Same as early voting plus tabulator tapes and e-pollbook.
Reconciliation: This is an example of reconciliation on election day.
The form below lists the information that must be collected and reported at private polling stations (ie local areas during early voting and on election day).

A separate program covering the actions to be taken at the vote-by-mail counting center will be available in a separate article.
Training related to the above template will be provided by FATE 2024 in video.
If Americans can protect their ballots and the process surrounding the ballots being counted in the 2024 Election, accurate results will prevail.
