Election integrity group will troll leftist Marc Elias after 2024's failed Cornel West ban

The Fair Election Fund, an organization dedicated to election integrity, is initiating a paid media campaign to ridicule Marc Elias, the discredited "Russia collusion" hoaxer, following his unsuccessful attempt to ban Cornel West from the ballot.

Marc Elias, the renowned Democratic lawyer for Hillary Clinton who spearheaded the widespread campaign for vote-by-mail in 2020, was unsuccessful in his "voter suppression efforts," according to the organization, as Breitbart News reported.

His objective was to “disenfranchise thousands of black voters who signed petitions to get Cornel West on the ballot in their respective battleground states.”

This endeavor by Elias encompassed intimidation and lawsuits. For instance, in September, he wrote a letter to the administration of Republican Virginia Gov. Glenn Youngkin, expressing his intention to file a lawsuit if West were to remain on the state's ballot.

From the Letter

“We write on behalf of Clear Choice Action regarding the Department of Elections’ and the Board of Elections’ (together, the ‘Department’) last-minute decision to qualify Dr. Cornel West to appear as a candidate for President of the United States on the Virginia ballot in the November 5, 2024 general election,” that particular letter read.

“If the Department refuses to take the requested actions, we reserve the right to pursue all legal remedies against the Department, including litigation seeking an injunction and writ of mandamus ordering compliance with the law.”

It is important to mention that the Elias Law Group was responsible for the legal challenges on behalf of Clear Choice Action, which also targeted North Carolina and Michigan.

Nevertheless, the Fair Election Fund is commemorating its ultimate victory over Elias with a six-figure ad purchase that will commence on Tuesday, which will demonstrate his defeat on this issue.

National Democrats went to war against third party candidates to block Kamala’s competition from the ballot, but Fair Election Fund led the fight to stop their voter suppression scheme and defend democracy.

“Despite their best efforts, Democrats failed miserably to stop the candidacies of Stein and West," the Fair Election Fund explained in an October 4 update.

"Their leading election lawyer, Marc Elias, had his butt kicked up and down the field in court by the legal apparatuses of the Stein and West teams."

This was a "great victory for Democracy and voting rights," according to former Rep. Doug Collins (R-GA), a senior adviser to the watchdog group.

“Marc Elias and his band of Democrat operatives failed in their racist election interference scheme to block Cornel West from the ballot,” he said in a statement.

“Our election system prevailed over a well-funded, coordinated effort from the Democrat elites trying to stack the deck in Kamala Harris’ favor,” he continued, promising that the group will “continue to expose the Democrats’ hypocrisy and protect the integrity of our elections.”
