Lol this happened down the street from my friend's house. I was just over there last night and we were talking about it.

Story is even better. The local GOP claimed in a newsletter that she's a Democrat. Turns out she's GOP, they just lied about it.
Icebullet2020
I don't live in the US, but it really seems like the GOP really are just fascists at this point. Not American conservatives
ReverseSyzygy
Barry Goldwater on, pretty much. - Note that our party platforms switched ~1930s (G.Depression) - Lincoln was GOP, but not like this. >>
ReverseSyzygy
Generally thought that Lincoln and others would Identify as modern Dems. (And 19th century Dems would ID as today's GOP)

Just the party that they tend to vote for.
AngryGraphicDesigner
She’s intellect tells me she’s probably not qualified to be a judge, so little doubt it’s a Republican judge
INeverWaitForIt
Given that the party's pillars are fascism, lies, and fucking the poor, one could argue that anyone identifying as an R isn't qualified.
nobonerhero42
Y'all do realize that election judges are not regular judges, right? They preside over polling places and are not an elected position...
dreadnought1600
It looks like they didn’t realize that.
FudgeLicense
You prolly "misspoke" and meant [HER intellect], but sure let's attack the grammar and dismiss context -which is spot-on for the story. -_-
Shoelebubba
Why in the fuck would you lie about her being a Democrat when her status was shown as public record to be a Republican judge?
GlenL
Because they know their base are mindless sheep who will believe anything they say.
SeasonedCitizen
Because they assume they are smarter than everyone else.
Gryphonosiris
When they are, in fact, complete fucking morons.
williamtowel
The initial reporting didn't have her name. They had to file a FOIA to get it. Took time, funny how all the rep news dropped it after though
lasertag2000
double agent?
CheapReusableProduce
Remember, signs the weekend before the election will not significantly influence. A scandal about signs though... looks false flag to me

"Freedom of Information Act Request had revealed that Johnston was a Republican judge for the last few cycles — including 2020."

By the looks of her she's lucky to have double brain cells

odd how all the fraud cases ive heard of have all been republicans

They manufacture fraud to complain about it.

Is it odd? I figured the party of hypocrisy would be guilty of that at the very least.

You are part of the problem. Demonizing one side is not the answer. Im voting democrat, but blanket statements like this are gross.

Nope this one is pretty accurate

The DuPage County Republican Party said Johnston was a Democrat... a [FoIA] Request had revealed that Johnston was a Republican

SHE'S NOT ONE OF OURS!, HONEST!

That wasnt a tree, she fell down the plinko game board

I know we shouldn’t base things off appearance but this person looks like they should be nowhere near a judgeship.
TavisMcNamara
Honestly, a judge should be the epitome of "has their shit together". Sure, don't base your opinions on appearance, but...

Messy hair, pulling a face; is she familiar with people in mugshots trying to disguise what they normally look like?

That were upper middle class. They came from poor to being well to do, just to fall back into poverty risk due to medical bills.

it's scary these GOPhers think of themselves as "skilled infowar operatives" but at least it's funny they can't do it without getting caught

Haha. Gophers. Fits well for the destructive, undermining rodents they are.

Either blame it or have less competition for her role

Of course to blame it on the democrats.

arfysdad
Really poor reporting in that the news source would 1) believe what the GOP would say, and 2) wouldn't check with the police until after 1/2
arfysdad
they found out she was GOP. Now they are chasing their own story.
InATightSpot
you just answered your own question ?
sweetnaivety
was it her competition?
Imalwaysready
Sounds like it is multiple Republican signs. Also, doesn't sound like she's running since it took a FOIA request to find out she's a Rep.
BallsMcCracken
It doesn't say she's republican. It says she was elected by Republicans. I'd guess she's a Democrat
toolarchy5
Freedom of Information Act Request had revealed that Johnston was a Republican judge for the last few cycles — including 2020.
toolarchy5
Its in the article itself. Ffs read the shit you are about to talk about, make it harder to call you on your bullshit.
aworkoffiction
The dems aren’t acting the way that reps say they do. So she took it upon her-self to fake it so that the false narrative can continue.
wifeaggro
Democrats are burning down cities, intimidating voters, and stealing signs. It's a minority of them, but it's a scary amount nonetheless.

In Chicago, there are so few Republicans willing to be judges in certain precincts, that many Republican positions are filled by Democrats.
HaikuSorrow
Not from USA - Sorry, why would there even be "Republican" or "Democrat" judges? What does that mean?
JustLettingPeopleBeWrong
It means that EVERYTHING in the US is partisan. Even the legal system.

The story shows that the repuglicans originally reported that she was a Democrat, probably to get the lie out there first.
HighSorcerer
Yep. If she didn't get caught, the dems did it. If she did get caught, she's a democrat. Anything to create a false narrative.
