Conservative election integrity activists are defeating Democrats in key lawsuits that could affect the presidential election, according to a report over the weekend.
Big League Politics reported that the night before the Turning Point Action People’s Convention in Detroit, Minnesota-based attorney Erick Kaardal, who has won 62 election integrity lawsuits, spoke to a group of around 40 Michigan activists about their achievements.
“You’re winning. You’re in the game,” he told the activists, comparing them to an “armada fighting asymmetrical warfare.”
Big League Politics reported:
Democrats “long march through the institutions” and their dominance of the administrative state have made it increasingly difficult for Republicans to win over the years, Kaardal explained, but Republicans are finally overcoming the obstacles and now must “win some more” to stop any election steal in 2024.
“We have to ensure that government is following the laws of the people, but if we don’t, the government is going to impose its culture and its whims on us,” Kaardal said.
Kaardal urged the audience to embrace populism defined as “the people working together to improve their government” and believes it is the task of populists to fight back against the Democrats’ perversion of the English language and stop them from imposing their version of Orwellian newspeak to control public perceptions.
“You need someone who says, ‘I represent the people’… and you have to believe there is moral content in the language of the people,” Kaardal said.
And that is not the only fantastic news Republicans have gotten for the 2024 election.
A noted political analysis firm has projected that former President Donald Trump will eke out a victory in November against President Joe Biden.
The firm FiveThirtyEight, using its election model, which incorporates a range of factors, including a summary of polling data, projected Trump would win 52 out of 100 times in an election simulation earlier this week. On Friday, his chances had fallen to 51 out of 100, but still gave him the victory.
Turning Point USA founder Charlie Kirk noted the historic nature of FiveThirtyEight’s projection.

“This is the first time he has EVER led a 538 forecast, in any of his three races,” Kirk wrote.
The firm explained that its forecast “is based on a combination of polls and campaign ‘fundamentals,’ such as economic conditions, state partisanship, and incumbency. It’s not intended to predict a winner, but rather to provide insight into each candidate’s likelihood of winning.”
According to FiveThirtyEight’s simulations, Trump is currently more likely to win the Electoral College, while Biden has an advantage in the national popular vote. In 38 out of 100 simulations, Trump was projected to secure fewer than 350 electoral votes, while Biden was favored in 28 out of 100 simulations. Biden was predicted to win the national popular vote in 59 out of 100 simulations, compared to Trump’s 41 out of 100.
Additionally, the simulations indicate that Trump is more likely to win at least one state that he did not win in 2020. Trump was projected to win one of these states in 80 out of 100 simulations, while Biden was favored in 48 out of 100 simulations for such states.
According to a new poll, Trump leads Biden by twice the margin of victory he had four years ago in the Lone Star State in the contest for Texas’ 40 electoral votes.
A Marist College survey released this month also showed Republican Sen. Ted Cruz leading Democratic opponent Rep. Colin Allred by six points in a crucial Senate contest as the GOP looks to recapture the majority in the chamber in November’s elections.
In 2020, Trump defeated Biden in Texas by about 5.5 points, the narrowest victory margin for a Republican presidential candidate in a deeply red state in almost 25 years.
