Kamala Harris' shock move - last presidential candidate who did it 'lost 49 out of 50 states'

Cardinal Timothy Dolan slammed Kamala Harris' surprise move to skip the annual Al Smith dinner, while sending a warning about the last candidate who sat it out.
The dinner benefitting Catholic Charities traditionally has been used to promote collegiality and good humor, with presidential candidates from both parties appearing on the same night and trading barbs.
Donald Trump has attended the dinner in both 2016 and 2020, while Hillary Clinton and Joe Biden - albeit online - also attended when running for president.
Dolan, the Archbishop of New York City, said he was 'disappointed' in Harris' decision to instead campaign in a battleground state less than three weeks before Election Day.
'We were looking forward to giving the vice president an enthusiastic welcome, and we were confident that she would find this – you know, she speaks very much about high ideals and how it's good to get away from division and come together in unity and all,' he said.
He then made a troubling historical point about the last time a Democrat told them no.
'We’re not used to this. We don’t know how to handle it. This hasn’t happened in 40 years, since Walter Mondale turned down the invitation. And remember, he lost 49 out of 50 states. I don't want to say there's a direct connection there, but … we're not giving up,' Dolan said.
The cardinal, who plays a prominent role in the dinner, has been highly critical of Democrats, writing a 2018 Wall Street Journal op-ed that carried the headline, 'The Democrats Abandon Catholics.'
Harris' team wants her to spend as much time as possible in the battleground states that will decide the election rather than heavily Democratic New York, a campaign official said Saturday, speaking on condition of anonymity to discuss campaign plans...

My family lives in western NYS and my brother, who’s on top of elections, said that Trump was winning before the convenient 10 pm shutdown of returns reporting. When it was back online, miraculously everything reversed.

Note well: Congress allocated $90 million tax dollars to the US Postal Service to compensate them for services rendered to voters living abeoad.
Citizens living overseas, including members of the armed forces, are allowed by law to vote absentee in elections. In Montana, a functioning absentee system allows them to vote starting 45 days until Election Day.
Democrat voter fraud is in high gear.......globally.
Backstory: Pres Reagan signed into law the 1986 Uniformed
and Overseas Citizens Absentee Voting Act (UOCAVA):
<><>to protect a time-honored tradition of overseas voting
<><>to enhance US citizens abroad and U.S. military members’ right to vote
<><>yet, federal law doesn’t provide clear, commonsense rules
<><>for how overseas voters register to vote
<><>or how their votes are compiled and counted.
<><>ergo, states can make their own laws — even bad ones.
But this past August, we learned that Democrats have gone global, committing $300,000 to register and influence 9 million overseas voters — even though the federal government says only 2.4 million legal voters live in other countries. That’s 6.4 million votes that Democrats want to find...that don’t exist. The group financing the efforts——Democrats Abroad—— told CBS News that the ballots are “likely to favor Kamala Harris.”

Democrats have devised an undetectable plan to steal 2024

Democrats have devised a “brilliant plan” to steal our election in 2024—and it’s really quite simple.
They believe the key to winning is getting “9 million individuals to vote for Kamala Harris” from a (cough) pool of 2.4 million eligible overseas voters———latter number of eligible overseas voters are verified according to US government data.
Democrats essentially remove the shock value when it’s announced they only achieved “a percentage” of their goal and reveal they received “millions of new overseas votes.”
