“Why vote when there is so much cheating?”

 

I understand this sentiment, but I disagree with it. Here are some reasons why:

 

1) More real voting makes more cheating necessary, making it easier to find and expose (e.g. my early work in PA);

 

2) Imagine if everyone voted. Then the only recourse for cheaters would be to flip votes and replace ballots (to survive recounts). But if citizens are engaged and paying attention, this is far more difficult;

 

3) It is possible to overwhelm the cheating algorithms, which is why Trump could win some states despite cheating, which ends up being mostly down-ballot. There simply aren’t enough bodies remaining to flip an election when there is an overwhelming majority on one side;

 

4) As a nation, we have become lazy and are neglecting our civic duty. We are not entitled to liberty; we must nurture and protect it or government will encroach upon it. By encouraging everyone to vote we are reminding them that our country and constitution were founded upon the notion that ”We the People” are the government, and that we must all do our part or lose our liberty.

 

Clearly, I am a romantic. I am working every day to help restore what we have been incrementally losing for decades, and I know that my efforts are not in vain. But regardless of the outcome, I will do my duty. The battle is the Lord’s.

 

But I am also a realist. When the children of Israel fell into sin, God would allow their neighbors to oppress them. When they would repent of their sin and idolatry, God would drive out their oppressors.

 

Today, as in Israel, America is being judged, and is suffering under conditions of its own making:

 

We murder and traffic our own children.

We defecate on sacred institutions, such as marriage and sex.

We lie, cheat, steal, and bear false witness.

We have replaced God with the idols of wealth and influence.

We have fallen into depravity.

 

We have earned our judgment. The tyranny we suffer under is the product of our own choices. Decades worth of selfish choices.

 

There is no silver bullet that we can implement as humans.

 

Our only recourse toward redemption is to repent, to throw ourselves at the feet of God’s throne, and to beg for mercy. And every real ballot cast is a step toward repentance and a prayer for redemption.

 

We know that repentance works, because God is the same, yesterday, today, and forever, and He always welcomes the prodigal home with open arms.

 

O Lord, hear our prayer
