💥 OHIO, September 22, 2026: Amy Acton called for a gas tax holiday first. Vivek Ramaswamy followed a few hours later with a fully worked plan to suspend it. Two campaigns, two parties, one (political) instinct: when voters are angry about prices, hand them a temporary discount and call it leadership. WHAT HAPPENED Within hours of each other on September 21, 2026, both major-party Ohio gubernatorial candidates called for the state to stop collecting its gas tax. Ramaswamy's plan is the more detailed of the two: suspend Ohio's 38.5-cents-per-gallon gasoline tax and 47-cents-per-gallon diesel tax for 90 days and push it through the GOP-controlled legislature on an expedited timeline. Acton's call came first and set the terms of the debate. The trigger is real. Ohio's average price for regular gas hit $4.52 a gallon on September 21 … up from $4.16 a week earlier, $4.09 a month earlier, and $3.04 at this time last year, according to AAA. That's a 49% increase year over year. Ohio's price is now slightly above the national average, and the state's 38.5-cent excise tax is already the 14th highest in the country. THE ARITHMETIC THE PRESS RELEASES SKIP A state excise tax that has not changed cannot explain a price that moved 49% in a year. The chart above makes the mismatch visible: gas prices climbed in a nearly straight line while Ohio's per-gallon tax sat flat the entire time. Whatever is driving the run-up at the pump — crude markets, refining capacity, seasonal blending, national energy policy — it is not the line item both candidates are proposing to suspend. ●A 90-day suspension of the state excise tax is worth roughly 38.5 cents per gallon — a real but partial offset against a price that rose over a dollar in twelve months. ●Neither campaign's announcement identifies what specifically is driving the underlying price increase or proposes anything that would change it after day 91. ●The gas tax funds road and bridge maintenance in Ohio. Suspending it doesn't make that obligation disappear — it either gets back-filled from another revenue source or deferred to a later budget. "Every trip to the grocery store, every fill-up at the pump, every monthly bill costs too much. Families badly need a real leader who takes action and delivers real relief." — Vivek Ramaswamy, Sept. 21, 2026 EVEN THE SITTING GOVERNOR SAID NO This is not a new idea, and it has already been rejected once this year on exactly these grounds. Governor Mike DeWine turned down a gas tax suspension proposal in May, as prices approached $5 a gallon, reportedly over concern for what it would do to road funding. Two candidates now running to succeed him are proposing what he already declined to sign — timed to arrive a few weeks before Ohioans vote. WHAT OCG IS WATCHING ●Whether either campaign names a funding mechanism to cover the Ohio Department of Transportation's lost revenue during a 90-day suspension, or whether the shortfall is left unaddressed. ●Whether the General Assembly moves Ramaswamy's proposal as standalone legislation, and how fast — a compressed timeline before November is itself a data point. ●Whether Acton's campaign releases a comparably detailed plan, including duration and backfill, rather than a one-line call for a "holiday." ●What, if anything, either candidate proposes to address the actual drivers of the price increase — as opposed to a temporary discount on one component of it. THE BOTTOM LINE Gas prices are a legitimate hardship, and Ohioans are right to be angry about them. But a 90-day break from a state tax that hasn't moved is not a response to a price that has risen 49% — it's a discount sized to an election calendar. Voters can hold both campaigns to a higher standard than a synchronized coupon: ask what happens on day 91, ask who pays for the roads in the meantime, and ask why neither plan says a word about what's actually pushing the price up.

선거 전문가분들의 의견이 궁금합니다. Tim Meisburger가 미국과 한국, 전세계 선거에 관련된 인물은 틀림없는 듯 한데요. 아래 Mark Cook과 Meisburger 답글 참고하시고 아시는 부분 있으시면 의견 공유 바랍니다. • 패트릭번이 트럼프 대통령이 계엄령 내리는 대신 Tim Meisburger을 데려와서 선거해야한다고 함. • 팀 마이스버거가 아시아재단, a-web, 선관위와 한국 2016년 총선에서 참관을 진행하고 한국을 best practice로 삼음. 저는 선거 국제 네트워크 위주로만 조사해와서요... <2016년 4월 총선> 관련 제가 찾은 정보만 아래 적어두겠습니다. • 투표지분류기 2016년 4월 13일 20대 총선에서 쓴 개표 기계는 2014년형 투표지분류기이다. (2014년 5.30–6.5 선거기간 동안 A-WEB Election Visitor Program이 열렸다.) 2016년 Taf 참관단이 본 분류기도 바로 이 2014년형이다. • 사전투표 (2014년 처음 실시) 한국 사전투표는 2013년 재·보선에서 처음 시험되고 2014년 6·4 지방선거에서 전국적으로 처음 실시됐다.당시 사전투표율은 약 11.5%였다. 2014년 선거 기간에 A-WEB Election Visitor Program으로 참가자들은 사전투표소와 6월 4일 투·개표를 봤다. 같은 행사 지식박람회에는 분류기 제작업체 미루시스템즈도 참가했다. 2016년 총선은 사전투표가 두 번째로 실시된 전국 선거이다. 사전투표율 약 12.2%, 전체 투표율 약 58%. • 개표 과정 종이로 투표 → 사전투표함·당일투표함 이동 → 2014년형 분류기로 1차 분류 → 사람이 눈으로 확인 → 계수기로 셈 • 기기 구성 분류기 + 제어용 PC + 프린터 일체형입니다. 제어용 PC에는 마이크로소프트 윈도우 8.1이 깔리고, 그 위에 미루시스템즈 등이 만든 분류 프로그램이 돌아간다. 윈도우 디펜더 같은 MS 보안 프로그램도 쓰였다. 제작은 입찰에서 미루시스템즈가 우선협상, 한틀시스템이 차순위였다. @parkjoohyeon79 @hkyoahn @AestheticSales_ @RealTonySLee @DrFrankModels @PatriotMarkCook @ColonelTowner @jongkeun @drfridIllIllI
Despite it not being as bad then as it is now, it was a very slippery slope and still: 1) Had the effect of centralizing control of election processes 2) Restricted/removed local oversight 3) Added additional layers of complexity to a system, creating more opportunities to exploit without detection. I do believe that most previous changes to our elections has been an intentional covert incremental slow-walk to full centralized control. The takeaway for all: Centralization and Complexity create fertile ground for abuse. A simple transparent system is the only way to reduce the size of the attack/failure surface. I think we are on the same page. Have you seen the PEP? nitter.net/PatriotMarkCook/status…

Smaller government. Lower spending. Greater transparency. Still waiting? The problem- Every election the public looks to presidents to do things the Constitution does not give presidents the power to do. A president makes the promise because the people demand the result. Then Congress refuses to do its constitutional job or the president discovers that he cannot simply order the result into existence and suddenly the president is blamed for “breaking his promise.” But some promises should never have been made by the executive in the first place. This is a Congressional responsibility. The Constitution puts legislative power in Congress. Congress controls taxation and spending, and no money can be drawn from the Treasury except pursuant to an appropriation made by law. (LibertyFirstSociety.com) Stop asking the Executive Branch to do the Legislative Branch’s job. And stop allowing Congress to escape accountability by letting the President become the face of every government failure. If you want a smaller government, a lower budget, less spending and greater transparency, put the demand on the people who actually possess the constitutional authority to make those changes. Demand it from Congress. Then hold Congress accountable when it refuses. Otherwise, we are not fixing the problem. We are participating in the political blame game that keeps the people from looking at the people in government actually responsible.

‼️ HOLY !$!!@#! ⁉️ Did someone from the US government take part in the recent overthrow of the Government of the Republic of Korea (ROK), aka South Korea?!?!? I now have a new Person of Interest: Paul DeGregorio. Public records place Paul S. DeGregorio in the international election-administration and election-technology network that includes A-WEB (Seoul-based), IFES (International Foundation for Electoral Systems, a U.S.-based nonprofit that provides technical assistance on elections and related democratic processes.), the U.S. Election Assistance Commission, USAID-funded democracy assistance, and Smartmatic. That network proximity is why he is a person of interest for anyone examining how electronic and automated election tools were promoted around A-WEB and South Korea. Documented: A-WEB senior adviser (reported 2014–2018); Smartmatic USA director (October 2018–March 2025); public advocacy that election technology, including in South Korea, can increase trust; IFES technical work in many countries; EAC role in U.S. voting-system guidelines and certification architecture; 2014 A-WEB MOUs with USAID, IFES, NDI, IRI, and Democracy International. Rough timeline (public sources; best effort) 1977–1981 — Assistant to Missouri Attorney General John Ashcroft. 1982–1985 — Special assistant to a regional administrator, U.S. Small Business Administration. Earlier White House-era work as a special assistant in the Reagan administration is also cited in official bios. 1985–1993 — Director of Elections, St. Louis County, Missouri. Computerized and professionalized a large U.S. local election office. 1986 onward — Member, IACREOT; later chaired its Education and Training Committee; credited with a University of Missouri certificate program for election officials. 1993–2001 — IFES election-administration expert/consultant. IFES is a major USAID-funded implementer. Bios state technical work in more than 20 countries (examples in contemporaneous reporting: Russia, Kazakhstan, Ukraine, Romania, Albania, China, Cambodia). Self-described 1997 IFES pre-election assessment in Slovakia; 1999 return as a speaker. 1993–2001 (overlapping) — Director of Outreach Development, University of Missouri–St. Louis. From about 1996 — Career listings describe ongoing OSCE/ODIHR election-expert/consultant work into the 2010s. 2001–2002 — Co-chair, Missouri Election Reform Commission. 2001–12 to 2003-12 — Executive Vice President and Chief Operating Officer, IFES (Washington). IFES then employed hundreds of people across many country programs, substantially financed by USAID and other donors. 2003-10-03 — Nominated by President George W. Bush to the new U.S. Election Assistance Commission (recommended by House Speaker Dennis Hastert). Senate-confirmed. 2003-12 to 2007-03 — EAC commissioner; vice chair 2005; chair 2006. Oversaw early Help America Vote Act implementation, review of state reform plans, distribution of roughly $2.3 billion in federal election-reform funds, first Voluntary Voting System Guidelines, and the start of federal voting-system testing/certification. 2004: National Association of Secretaries of State Freedom Award. 2005 — Represented the United States at an OSCE meeting in Vienna (his own later account). 2007-05 — OSCE/ODIHR election assessment mission to Ireland; observed the count in County Wicklow with Nikolai Vulchanov. 2007-06 to 2014-01 (approx.) — Joins Everyone Counts, Inc. (Australian-founded internet/remote voting firm, later San Diego HQ) as COO / Chief of Elections / President of Elections. Promotes online and telephone voting for remote and disabled voters. September 2011: speaks in Slovakia as Everyone Counts “President of Elections.” 2009-05-20 — Leads a four-member OSCE/ODIHR expert group in Slovenia on European Parliament elections. Other members listed by Slovenia’s Court of Audit: Iuri Ciocan (Moldova CEC), Alexander Shlyk (then identified as a Belarusian political scientist), Anthoula Malkopoulou (Greece). This is a documented DeGregorio–Shlyk working contact inside ODIHR. 2013-10-14 — A-WEB inaugurated in Songdo, South Korea, at NEC initiative. 2014-02 to 2018-09 — Senior adviser, Association of World Election Bodies (A-WEB). Confirmed in his November 2016 Governing author biography. A-WEB’s Secretariat is in Korea; NEC is the founding/host EMB. 2014-05 — A-WEB signs MOUs in Washington with USAID, IFES, Democracy International, NDI, and IRI (capacity building, standards, research, observation). 2014-05-30 to 2014-06-04 — Smartmatic exhibits electronic-voting products at an A-WEB election observation / Election Knowledge Fair in Seoul during Korea’s local elections. Named Smartmatic staff: Robert Dobler, Miguel Avila, Henry Slim. DeGregorio is not named in that release. 2014 onward (Korea, separate track) — Miru Systems becomes the principal public vendor for NEC vote-counting machines (Korean press: exclusive/long-running NEC contracts from about 2014). This is the domestic hardware track. Do not collapse it into Smartmatic or DeGregorio without a contract. 2015-02 to 2018-09 — Senior fellow, Democracy Fund; advises the Elections Program; Governing contributor (November 2016 piece on U.S. Election Day risk). Still describes himself as A-WEB senior adviser. 2016-04 — Smartmatic-hosted short video: “Paul DeGregorio – Technology deters election fraud.” Identified as former EAC chair. Script cites South Korea (and Haiti, Kenya, Kyrgyzstan) as places where technology advanced democracy and voter trust. Promotional statement, not a procurement record. 2016-04-12 — Seoul International Forum on Elections (A-WEB + NEC), Shilla Hotel. DeGregorio’s attendance is not established in published participant lists reviewed for this file. Flag as a check, not a fact. 2018-10-24 — Smartmatic announces a U.S. Board of Directors: Vice Adm. Peter Neffenger (chair), Robert Cook (executive director), Gracia Hillman (former EAC chair), Paul DeGregorio (former EAC chair). First meeting 26 October 2018, Washington. Mandate: guide U.S. sales of “secure technology.” Career listings: director October 2018–March 2025. Smartmatic later noted U.S. board members stepped down after serving beyond a five-year term (company note, March 2025). 2018–2024 — Smartmatic’s principal documented U.S. public-election work in this period is Los Angeles County (BMDs/related services; company says the LA system does not count, tabulate, or store votes). Separate from Korea. Smartmatic executives later faced U.S. bribery charges tied to Philippines contracts; that docket is a vendor-integrity lead, not a DeGregorio charging document. Through 2025–2026 — Public bios still identify him as a former EAC chairman and (until the reported 2025 board wind-down) Smartmatic USA director. No located public record of a current NEC, A-WEB secretariat, or Miru executive title. * I suggest vetting everything in here for accuracy, but this should be a very good start for those who would like to dig! Bottom line for researchers: He is a high-value network node — U.S. chief election-assistance official, IFES operator in the USAID ecosystem, A-WEB adviser in Seoul’s EMB club, then Smartmatic USA director who publicly used South Korea as a technology success example. @DrFrankModels @TheSCIF @pjcolbeck @DrTaraO @NewshamGrant @MorseHTan @ColonelRETJohn2, isn't this interesting?

Election Fraud is actually an TRANSNATIONAL DANGER, and has been for many years. Many nations are in crisis as a result. USA and South Korea are two of those Nations. The truth is that our government has been manipulating elections in other Nations for a very long time. Some directly, some indirectly. USAID money went into AWEB, which is the body that took control of the elections in South Korea. Yes, OUR TAX DOLLARS were used (without our permission or knowledge) for criminals to overthrow South Korea. South Korea JUST SUFFERED a severe blow on 2026-06-03. Their government experienced a full takeover following a very rigged election. Citizens all over there that have exposed the fraud and are demanding redress are being prosecuted, thrown in jail, and in some cases, beaten. The people are desperately looking for help, guidance, and support. We are fighting battles here against the same common enemy: RIGGED ELECTIONS. This video they did is FANTASTIC and needs to be shared everywhere to bring attention to this, everywhere. If we all fight the fraud together, and work to reclaim our elections, we can regain and then protect our Liberties. If we fail to act, or fail to work together, we may not make it through this peacefully. That's just the blunt truth. Please watch and share right now. piped.video/watch?v=YhDVGNQ5…

Hwang Kyo-ahn, former Prime Minister of South Korea graciously shared his time while at the Storm Summit in Las Vegas. His comments sound an election warning to America. He explains what occurred during the election held in June of this year and why there appear to be very similar efforts in South Korea and the U.S. to undermine the elections and block attempts to effectively investigate what many are calling outright fraud.

Dr. Frank is right. Election fraud is a global issue, and the CCP has meddled in far more than just one or two places. We must also keep a close eye on the situation in Brazil, where another presidential election is approaching. They are victims just like us, and all nations must cooperate with the United States to restore the fairness of our votes, which is directly tied to our livelihoods. If things return to normal, all of humanity on Earth will achieve a true freedom unlike anything we have known before.

"Don't be Ignorant" People who think their county elections are OK are duped. EVERY county in EVERY state in the country is corrupted, because EVERY state has centrally controlled and centrally manipulated elections by means of totally hackable elections systems. There are no exceptions. I've analyzed EVERY county in America. If your election officials say otherwise, then they are either duped or complicit. Sorry.

Look at South Korea. Whenever freedom has been threatened — and whenever freedom has been welcomed — Koreans have waved the Stars and Stripes and greeted America. But beginning about ten years ago, our liberty camp was gradually overrun by the left. We even lost two presidents. From that time until now, Korea’s elderly, young university students, and even teenagers have kept waving the American flag. They have not forgotten their gratitude to the United States, the country that helped free us from socialism. They are still declaring their will to be free. A true Korean will always stand with America. We Go Together!!

“Oregon Election Clerks are Duped!” If you speak to your county election clerk (in EVERY state, not just Oregon), they will assure you you that they are in control of their country voter rolls. They are wrong. They merely diddle at the edges. The vast majority of changes in voter rolls is happening centrally, at the state level, and the clerks are unaware of most of it because they do not keep snapshots over time of their rolls so that they can compare. I DO keep snapshots. The clerks are duped, and merely repeat what they are told by the state clerk associations. Whenever I speak to clerks and show them THEIR OWN data, they finally have to admit that they have to “trust the state.” QED. The clerks are not in control of the voter rolls, not to mention the fact that the rest of the election process is also out of their control, like the tabulation and the reporting. In the upcoming November election, if any clerk allows non-citizens to vote in their election, the DoJ will prosecute, and they are going to prison. Seems unfair, putting someone in prison for something out of their control. But they’ve been duly warned, and offered help from me and DoJ. They are without excuse.
