Long after Election Day, the ballots comin' down

No IDs or postmarks wherever they are found

The laws make cheating legal, and Democrats applaud

And I wonder, still I wonder, who'll stop the fraud?

Fed up Angelinos, having watched their city burn

Voted for a newcomer, then saw the tallies turn

The loser makes the runoff, no one thinks that's odd

And I wonder, still I wonder, who'll stop the fraud?

When votes are manufactured, don't bother keeping score

Look into the future; this is what's in store

Don't know who can stop it, the DOJ or God

So I wonder, still I wonder, who'll stop the fraud?

The primary elections in California last week were yet further evidence of why we need federal laws that protect the integrity of our elections. As virtually everyone who hasn't been living under a rock knows, former reality TV personality Spencer Pratt stunned everyone with his groundbreaking campaign for mayor of Los Angeles. Pratt was running against unpopular incumbent Mayor Karen Bass, who has been widely criticized for her actions (and inaction) that exacerbated the devastating fires that destroyed the Pacific Palisades section of Los Angeles in January of last year, including cutting $17 million from the LA Fire Department's budget, leaving local water reservoirs (and thus fire hydrants) completely empty during wildfire season, and taking a trip to Ghana, despite being warned of the risk of wildfires at that time.

In addition to her incompetence, Pratt called Bass out for her background as a communist who visited Cuba more than a dozen times........
