Many voted Green as a protest over Gaza, reinforcing Britain’s deepening slide into sectarian politics.
“Family voting” refers to multiple relatives entering a single polling booth together.
The practice is illegal under British electoral law, as it can involve one person influencing or directing how another family member casts their ballot.
Writing on the X platform, Reform leader Nigel Farage noted that incidents of family voting had “reached the highest levels of any election in the past 10 years.”
“This is deeply concerning and raises serious questions about the integrity of the democratic process in predominantly Muslim areas,” he wrote.
Incidents of family voting in Gorton & Denton reached the highest levels of any election in the past 10 years says @SkyNews.
This is deeply concerning and raises serious questions about the integrity of the democratic process in predominantly Muslim areas. https://t.co/WpTB2XSwIe
Nigel just called me. The situation with the Muslim vote in the United Kingdom is absolutely insane. It’s outright and absolute sectarian politics the likes of which we have been blowing the whistle on for over a decade now. https://t.co/c2iqCoC08Dhttps://t.co/eftIDbyAUV
NEW: International election observers recorded 32 cases of illegal family voting in the same polling booth across 15 polling stations in Gorton and Denton
"[These are] the highest levels of family voting at any election in our 10 year history of observing elections in the UK"
Democracy Volunteers, an organisation founded by Dr John Ault, and supported by the Conservative peer and psephologist Prof Robert Haywood, deployed four accredited election observers across the constituency. The team attended 22 of the 45 polling stations while polls were open, spending between 30 and 45 minutes in each, working in pairs.
The organisation said its volunteers were looking at people appearing to collude on votes in breach of secret ballot rules, which it called “family voting”, as well as the impact of the requirement for voters to show ID before they were issued with a ballot paper.
…
Democracy Volunteers said that while the enactment of the Ballot Secrecy Act in 2023 made “family voting” more clearly a breach of the secret ballot, signage to discourage the practice was only seen in 45% of the polling stations observed.
The observing team said they saw family voting in 15 of the 22 polling stations observed, reporting 32 cases in total, nine cases in one polling station alone. They observed a sample of 545 voters casting their votes, of which they said 12% either directed or were affected by family voting.
Just like in America, wherever the far left and mass immigration take root, the stealing of elections is never far behind.

Foreign Affairs Finally Writes that ‘Ukraine Is Losing the War’ – Globalist Magazine Says Kiev Must Give Up on Donetsk Territory for Peace
February 27, 2026
Outmanned, outgunned and outmaneuvered Ukrainians: why fight another year?
The Globalists seem to have thrown in the towel.
The Foreign Affairs magazine, owned and published by the Council on Foreign Relations (CFR) is widely regarded as a globalist outlet, promoting those supranational agendas that we fight over the national sovereignty that we so cherish.
But that does not mean that the magazine can’t be right once in a blue moon – after all, every broken clock is right twice a day.
Yesterday (26), Foreign Affairs reported on the four years of the Russia-Ukraine war with a 3,000-word article with the previously unimaginable title of ‘Ukraine Is Losing the War’.
Kiev is under constant attacks.
The magazine analyzed the US-Russia effort to push Kiev to agree to painful territorial concessions as the price for peace.
The plan is that the entire Crimea, Donetsk, and Luhansk be recognized as de facto Russian territories, as well as the parts of Kherson and Zaporizhzhia they now occupy.
But Volodymyr Zelensky and his European handlers is pushing back, exasperating US President Donald J. Trump.
So the magazine goes for the obvious takedown:
“Ukraine has been putting up valiant resistance, but its determination cannot disguise the fact that it is losing the war. Russia controls a large swath of Ukrainian territory, and Kiev has little chance of dislodging it, as Ukraine’s failed counteroffensive in 2023 demonstrated.”
Russia is winning the war.
Needless to say, there are still a good deal of coping narratives, like ‘Ukraine is suffering fewer losses than Russians’ – which is bullshit – but overall, we find an inordinate number of painful truths for their Globalist readers.
Things such as: Russia uses young contract soldiers while Ukraine relies heavily on unpopular conscription raids.
It even talks about the taboo subject of the ‘busification,’ the violent grabbing of men off the street and taking them in minivans to the local recruitment office.
“In addition to being unpopular, harsh methods are netting mostly older, less healthy, and clearly unwilling soldiers, many of whom desert at the first opportunity. Those who remain contribute little to the war effort.”
And the mobilization practice of catching people from buses is already 100% established… pic.twitter.com/Q8CQjEAPdc
Foreign Affairs also does not shy from reminding readers that Russia outguns Ukraine in terms of tanks, infantry fighting vehicles and armored personnel carriers, mobile artillery, multiple launch rocket systems, mortars, aircraft… everything.
Not to mention the very relevant fact that Russia’s GDP is ten times greater than Ukraine’s.
“Russia has a large indigenous defense industry and massive military stockpiles, although it, too, has come to rely to some extent on allies, including China and North Korea. Russia may not have all the cards, but it has big battalions and deep pockets.”
The Ukrainian security service is keeping secret all information about the attack of the Russian “Oreshnik” rocket on the facility in Dnipropetrovsk, and the West is in shock to learn that Russia possesses such a weapon

Again the weapon seems to have relied on “Kinetic” impact to destroy its target. Probably a large underground gas transit facility. pic.twitter.com/NRQomTdVf0
As Russia has now conquered almost a fifth of Ukrainian land, the magazine notes that the complete control of the Donbas (Luhansk and Donetsk) is ‘Moscow’s most consistent territorial objective’.
And they go there, and write that ‘rampant corruption has undermined all aspects of Ukraine’s war effort’. Ouch!
“Russia’s objectives seem reasonably compatible with its capabilities and trends on the battlefield. Ukraine’s objectives, in contrast, seem beyond its reach.”
Russia is using infiltration in small groups to avoid drone attacks.
Finally, Russia has also turned the tables on the drone wars, and now it’s estimated that Moscow has a ten-to-one advantage in drones produced and deployed to the battlefield.
Russia is innovating, developing infantry infiltration tactics against Kiev’s drone warfare.
As for the last bastions in Donetsk, Slavyansk Kramatorsk, the magazine is not optimistic.
“Russia has also demonstrated that even fortress cities can be surrounded, isolated, and cleared through the infiltration of small units, as it has done recently in Chasiv Yar, Huliapole, Pokrovsk, and Siversk — and may yet succeed in doing in Kostiantynivka and Kupyansk.”
And they insist that the loss of ‘the rest’ of Donetsk, would not ‘open the door to Kiev’ for Moscow.
Who’s In Charge of Verifying Our Voter Applicant ID’s Nationwide – It’s a Non-Profit, AAMVA.
February 27, 2026
U.S. States use 2 nearly identical systems to check applicant identities. One is used to check Driver’s License applicants, the other is used to check Voter Registration applicants. One is flawed, the other flawless. Guess which is used for our elections.
The Motor Vehicle Administration (MVA) is a generic term for a state’s DMV, MVD, and so on. MVA’s use a service called SSOLV (Social Security Online Verification) to verify driver license applicants. When a person needs a license or ID card, they go to an MVA office. Staff create an “ID verification request” by entering all 9 digits of the SS#, name, and DOB into their computer. That data travels through the middleman network AAMVAnet, to the Social Security Administration, and comes right back with a response.
To verify the identities of Voter Registration applicants, states use a nearly identical program called HAVV (Help America Vote Verification). These ID verifications are sent by the same MVA department, also through AAMVAnet, to the same SSA servers. But this system seems handicapped. Only the last 4 digits of the SS# can be used. And it gets worse. (Funfact: Texas pays $480 per year for its AAMVAnet service).
GP has written about the high percentage (28%, 58%) of non-match ID verifications through the HAVV system.
Both SSOLV and HAVV are services provided by the American Association of Motor Vehicle Administrators (AAMVA). States sign agreements for programs and services provided by AAMVA. In fact, SSOLV and HAVV are so similar that they are often priced as one service and one line item on purchase orders. Note: If a voter applicant doesn’t have a driver’s license, HAVV must be used to check the identity. Some states use HAVV for more than this, including their entire database.
Voter applications come from many sources – online, paper, and applying for gov benefits. Because of this, HAVV verifications are processed differently from SSOLV. Typically, as voter applications come into a Country Recorders’ office, a list is created of those needing ID verification (a batch). These County lists are combined each day by the Secretary of State. This is then given to their MVA, who submits this “batch” at night to the Social Security Administration (SSA). The results are disseminated back to the original locations.
In 2010, the Office of Inspector General (OIG) for the SSA released a report about HAVV. Oddly, that 8-person team looked at only one issue and talked with only 10 states. They found that many HAVV requests are resubmissions of the same person, over and over. In some states, 30-70% of all requests were resubmissions. For instance, a 37-year-old Illinois man was verified 342 times on the same day.
In other examples, Ohio submitted the same voter for verification 1,778 times over an 11-day period in 2008. In 2009, they submitted the same person for verification another 13,824 times. That 77-year-old man had been dead for 4 years. The OIG report shows the same person can be processed 10, 30, even 50 times or more each year. Read on to learn why we are mentioning 18-year-old data.
Of the 10 states questioned by the OIG, 6 didn’t know why resubmissions were happening, and didn’t seem to care. Four states indicated that voter verifications were resubmitted automatically when that voter’s info was changed or updated. In 2008, about 32% of all verification transactions processed through HAVV were resubmissions. In 2009, it was about 20%.
After the report, the Social Security Administration stated it wasn’t necessary to create a process that detects or fixes why a person is submitted repeatedly. From what we can tell, not a single improvement has been made to HAVV since that 2010 report. After many unanswered FOIAs, staff at a Secretary of State office in the Midwest said, “We too are curious about HAVV data. It’s run by the DMV and somewhat of a black box to us.”
AAMVA is a 501(c)3 non-profit. Basically, they are a technology company that sells services to a state’s motor vehicle and law enforcement divisions. They rely on many tech companies for help. Each of the 50 States, DC, and the Canadian provinces make up the 69 members of AAMVA. Their board is mostly MVA administrators from the states. They have 7 committees, 12 subcommittees, and 8 working groups. Of their 190 employees, 120 are IT staff.
AAMVA is a professional organization, and very necessary. They work as the middleman to supply states with the technologies and legal paperwork to make things work. Like an agreement and secure connection to data at the Social Security Administration. They also create standards. Imagine if driver’s licenses were a free-for-all where some states used RIFD, or only QR codes, or didn’t use holograms, or no DOB, and so on.
AAMVA works with federal government partners, including the DOT, NHTSA, DHS, DOJ, and more. As an example, the National Motor Vehicle Title System (NMVTIS) provided by AAMVA is a DOJ program under the Bureau of Justice Assistance (BJA). Funfact: Texas pays $311k per year for NMVTIS. AAMVA is involved in everything from autonomous vehicles and facial recognition to license plates and selective service registration (military).
There are over 268 Associate Members of AAMVA. This includes heavyweights like 3M, State Farm, Amazon, PPG, Penske, LexisNexis, Accenture, Google, Infosys, Experian, UL, Apple, and, of course, ERIC. Some members are a concern, like the leftist “Center for DMV Election Resources”. This is a project under the “Institute for Responsive Government” and CEO Sam Oliker-Friedland from WI. Their millions in funding come from hard-left activist groups (see below). We should all look into their MVA involvement, along with others on that long list.
On their website, details about AAMVA programs can only be accessed by jurisdictions and Federal members with logins. The 19 presentations from their 2025 annual conference require logins, too. Their meeting discussed how to create narratives through social media, along with unmanned aerial systems. It seems AAMVA and their partners have big plans for our society, and likely not based on public demand. AAMVA pushes mobile driver’s licenses (mDL), the replacement of our plastic ID cards with phone tech.
AAMVA financials show roughly $45 million from contracts and membership dues each year. Another $9 million comes from grants, and $400k from contributions. They send out about $400k in grants, mostly to cover people’s travel expenses to their events. They provide IT services, network services (communications), software products, and standards. These programs allow members to share driver, vehicle, and identity data with organizations. Below, we cover AAMVA’s primary tools.
Systems Services: This includes Licensing, Vehicle, and Verification tools. They manage all types of driver license data, required skills tests, and detect fraud. Vehicle services like NMVTIS provide processing of titles, segmenting (junk, salvage), and insurance reporting. They have 8 programs verifying identities for driver licenses, passports, driver images, voter registration, lawful status (VLS), and more.
The 8 verification services provided by AAMVA.
A major goal of the left is to have 100% automatic voter registration for every citizen. The billions they spent on GOTV would then probably go towards harvesting. It was Democrats who pushed the Motor Voter law (93’ NVRA) that allows voter registration at MVA offices. The left has positioned itself in and around MVA’s ever since. This is because most policies about voting center around MVA registration systems. Over 24 states already have some form of automatic voter registration at their MVA, unless you opt out!
About half of our states are members of the leftist-founded voter registration non-profit called ERIC. Those states are required to turn over their entire MVA database to ERIC every month, for both licenses and ID cards. Certain legal teams believe this is a violation of DPPA and that ERIC’s access to MVA data is against the law. ERIC supposedly helps clean voter rolls. GP found the opposite happened. ERIC’s entire business approach seems to be modeled after AAMVA.
The 1994 federal Drivers Privacy Protection Act (DPPA) has 13 provisions under which MVA information can be shared without permission. This includes insurance activities, emissions, recalls, law enforcement activities, and so on. The law DOES NOT allow non-profits to use it for voter registration. If not aware, the DOJ recently sued 27 States because they refused to turn over their voter rolls. It’s no coincidence that 23 of those are members of ERIC?
AAMVA heavily pushes a privacy and consumer protection narrative. They knew ERIC would obtain data from some of its member states. No one has access to MVA data like ERIC. Not political parties, not campaigns, no one. So how is it possible that a newly created, 3-employee non-profit could get states join and give up this highly coveted MVA data? Some states even passed laws forcing the purchase of ERIC, year after year? You have to wonder if AAMVA influence was involved.
Associate Members of AAMVA (Partial List)
With all their resources, access to cutting edge technologly, and heavyweight tech partners. Why has AAMVA never stepped up to fix or improve the HAVV system? Nearly their entire business model is about identities and verification. So why has the HAVV system been ignored by everyone? Some say a purposefully broken election system creates all the opportunities for fraud.
Origins of HAVV: The Help America Vote Act was passed in 2002. A couple of years later, Congress asked the U.S. Election Assistance Commission (EAC) to conduct a feasibility report about the use of SS#’s for voter verification. The EAC assigned the work to a vendor in 2006. Oddly, that contract was cancelled, and the EAC never hired a replacement vendor. In 2007, EAC asked the SSA to conduct the report. The SSA refused, stating it wasn’t their job. Also, they’re not an “independent” commission, as requested by Congress.
Almost 5 years later, by May of 2009, the report hadn’t even been started. Since its inception, and every step of the way, the HAVV program has been a broken and neglected stepchild. The OIG’s conclusion in 2010: EAC should get that damn report done, give it to Congress, and let everyone know the “RISKS OF PROVIDING A HIGH RATE OF FALSE POSITIVES OR FALSE NEGATIVES TO THE STATES”.
Conservative Journalist Sara Gonzales Trolls Ilhan Omar by Bringing Her a One-Way Ticket to Somalia — and Some Bananas and Rice for the Flight (VIDEO)
February 27, 2026
Blaze TV host Sara Gonzales decided to pay a visit to Rep. Ilhan Omar’s office on Friday to deliver her a one-way ticket back to Somalia.
Armed with a one-way ticket to Somalia on the fictional “Mogadishu Airlines,” a commemorative photo of Omar and her alleged “brother-husband,” and some bananas and rice for the ride, Gonzales delivered a prank that’s already going viral on X.
In the video, Gonzales is standing outside Omar’s DC congressional office, explaining her gifts.
“We’re here in front of Ilhan Omar’s office and decided to just bring her a one-way ticket back to Somalia on Mogadishu Airlines,” Gonzales says, while all smiles.
“Go home. Don’t come back.”
Noting that it’s a long trip, and she’s heard Somalis are all about bananas and rice, she holds up the snack she prepared for her travels.
Gonzales also holds up a framed photograph of Omar and her brother.
“Bring your picture… especially your brother-husband. I think that’s who that is, right, Ilhan?”

Gonzales slid the ticket under the door and left the gifts neatly placed nearby.
The “brother-husband” reference alludes to longstanding allegations that Omar married her brother, Ahmed Nur Said Elmi, in 2009 to facilitate his immigration to the U.S.
Gonzales’ post racked up over 52,000 views, nearly 4,000 likes, and hundreds of reposts and replies within hours.
Omar’s office has not yet responded to the video.
As The Gateway Pundit previously reported, Gonzales was also kicked out of the Democrats’ State of the Union counter-event for calling Joy Reid a loser as she introduced Kilmar Abrego Garcia on Wednesday.
