Pelosi: GOP Could ‘Creep Into the Technology’ to Alter Midterm Vote Counts

Pelosi: GOP Could ‘Creep Into the Technology’ to Alter Midterm Vote Counts

“We always have concerns, but with this president and the Republicans who have no commitment to the rule of law and doing things the appropriate way. We’re ready.”

It’s been said a thousand times: Democrats accuse Republicans of what they themselves are actually doing. They’ve managed to turn this tactic into an art form in the age of Trump, and it has served them well. While not all voters believe them, enough do to make it pay off at the ballot box.

During a softball interview with MS NOW’s Ali Vitali on Monday, former House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) made the extraordinary claim that Republicans may try to rig the midterm elections.

“We always have concerns, but with this president and the Republicans, who have no commitment to the rule of law and doing things the appropriate way. We’re ready,” Pelosi assured her.

She explained the Democrats’ mission. “One is to win the midterms. Two is to make sure the elections are safe. And three, to tell people what we will do when we win.”

Then, she took her kill shot. “In addition to that, we have to be on guard as to what they [the Republicans] may try to do to the technology. They may try to creep into the technology and create a false count.”

Taking Pelosi’s explosive statement at face value, Vitali asked, “How do you guard against that?”

Pelosi replied, “That’s a challenge.”

Vitali addressed Pelosi’s role in former President Joe Biden’s withdrawal from the race in July 2024. She said, “I wonder if you factor in the way that Biden’s campaign ended when you think about your own legacy. I think that many people credit you or blame you for the way that that campaign ended.”

Following a brief pause, Pelosi said, “How can I say this in a nice way?”

She elaborated on the great accomplishments of the Biden administration and avoided her direct role in his decision to step aside. She broached the subject of Biden’s senility without actually saying the words, “People don’t know that it’s a problem.”

[Does she truly believe the public was unaware of Biden’s cognitive state? The conservative media had been reporting on his decline from the moment he launched his campaign in April 2019.]

“So, in any event,” the former speaker said, “we would have liked the White House to give us more air cover for a lot of those things.”

Pelosi noted that she only asked the president for two things: “I wanted him to have other [inaudible — possibly posters] at the table than just listening to one. And B, I wanted to assure the public that he could serve the term. They didn’t agree with that and so, he then decided to step aside. It was his decision.”

She then pivoted to the challenges faced by former Vice President Kamala Harris.

The two discussed the possibility of Democrats nominating a woman in 2028. “I always thought the American people were much more ready for ‘Madam President’ than Congress was for ‘Madam Speaker,’ because it is a marble ceiling,” she said. “It’s not a glass ceiling; it’s a marble ceiling.”

She added that Hillary Clinton was the most qualified person of our generation to run for president.

In November, Pelosi, 86, announced she will retire from Congress at the end of the current session.

Once again, the Left accuses conservatives of doing what they themselves are doing.

    Absolutely. They are the ones with access to electronic voting machines after all. Also Soros made an effort to have democrats capture the State Secretary positions that oversee elections. Why? Because it’s not who votes it is who counts the votes that matters.

      Damn Nancy! If you are concerned about fraud, require paper ballots with in-person voting, and identification checks when voting.

Nancy needs to creep along under a rock and stay there.

They actually want a civil war.

Don’t they remember how the last one turned out for them?

    No more trust in vote outcomes is a good way to start one. These Red liberal bastards have no ability to see themselves in what they say.

Nancy pelosi, the wizard of stock market trading, has repeatedly said our elections are secure. Was she possibly lying? Why the big concern over cheating in the midterms? Has something changed?

She can’t retire soon enough.

shes correct

but only if we want to beat the dems at their own game

soooo …do it!

A manifestly corrupt and vile Dhimmi-crat apparatchik crone-creep, opines on “creeping.”

She knows all about that stuff does she?

The Democrats are preparing their Election denial basis for the Mid-Terms. Every race they lose will be caused by Republican cheating. Especially in what should be guaranteed Democrat races.

Musk cyborgs driven by advanced AI could impersonate illegal aliens, but vote Republican.

Nanners is drunk on her ass again.
“Safe elections”??

inspectorudy | April 1, 2026 at 1:24 pm

Is Pelosi saying that Republicans might catch up with the Dems on hacking voting machines? No! That wouldn’t be fair for the Dems!

Speaking from experience? Or is that just the booze talking?

hillary stated months before her loss in 2016

if the gop wins they are cheating

she was of course applauded by her sheep

when trump was obviously ripped off from his 2020 win
any talk of dem cheating along with their orchestration of the C19 spread was mixed into the testing of our first amendment rights and our own ability to work and live by the beginnings of a tyrannical fjb run

which saw the capitulation to the black matriarchy and severed body parts formerly belonging to children who thought they might be someone or something else

lady gaga notwithstanding

Talk about projection…

Pelosi is like that drunk at the party that just won’t go home. Dems have screamed about Trump trying to steal an election so much it pretty much falls on deaf ear at this point much like calling him a Nazi or fascist.
