Hello.<\/p>\n<p>CALLER: Thank you, Rush. It\u2019s a pleasure to talk with you.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: Thank you very much. Appreciate that.<\/p>\n<p>CALLER: In the newspaper this morning there was a big headline that said voters who switch parties this year barred from primary. Apparently our secretary of state decided to tell us that there is a little-known state law that forbids people who change their party registration after December 31st to vote in the May primary.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: Wait a minute, now.<\/p>\n<p>CALLER: Uh-huh.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/live-rush-limbaugh.pantheonsite.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/01125114.Par.89380.ImageFile.jpg\" width=\"300\" height=\"623\" class=\"alignright\"\/>RUSH: This sounds like a de facto preemptory strike on Operation Chaos.<\/p>\n<p>CALLER: Yes. And they said that some 9,000 people have switched parties since January 1st.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: Committing crimes?<\/p>\n<p>CALLER: Oh, of course. And they said that that law has been long-standing.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: I\u2019m sure it probably has. When is the Kentucky primary?<\/p>\n<p>CALLER: In May.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: Okay. So, in other words, if Republicans wanted to vote in the Democrat primary in May in Kentucky, they had to register as Democrats before December 31st?<\/p>\n<p>CALLER: Right. They have to switch. Now, new people who have never registered before can register as a Democrat or whatever.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: Up until what date? I mean, there\u2019s gotta be a cutoff.<\/p>\n<p>CALLER: December 31st.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: No registrations for the Kentucky primary after December 31st?<\/p>\n<p>CALLER: Not to switch.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: No, I\u2019m beyond that now. The people who haven\u2019t ever registered, what\u2019s the deadline for them to register before the Kentucky primary? This is a relevant question for Operation Chaos.<\/p>\n<p>CALLER: It is. And it does not say one word about what the cutoff is. But it also says that that law has been established to prevent so-called party raiding &#8212;<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: Yeah, yeah.<\/p>\n<p>CALLER: &#8212; in an effort to sway an election\u2019s outcome.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: (laughing) So it\u2019s an all-out assault on Operation Chaos. We expected this.<\/p>\n<p>CALLER: Well, I sent this link to you by e-mail this morning.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: All right. I\u2019ll find it. Somebody will find &#8212;<\/p>\n<p>CALLER: It is in the Courier-Journal.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: Yeah, the Courier-Journal. Yeah, I\u2019m very familiar with it. We\u2019ll find it. Thanks very much for the heads up out there, Linda.<\/p>\n<p>CALLER: You\u2019re very welcome. I love your program and I wish I could listen more &#8212;<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: Why can\u2019t you?<\/p>\n<p>CALLER: &#8212; but I have to work.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: No excuse. Do you have a computer?<\/p>\n<p>CALLER: I do.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: Well, have you joined <a href=\"\/\/home\/menu\/fathers.guest.html\">Rush 24\/7<\/a>?<\/p>\n<p>CALLER: No.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: Well &#8212;<\/p>\n<p>CALLER: I do get the <a href=\"\/\/home\/newsletter.guest.html\">Rush in a Hurry<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: That\u2019s good, that\u2019s a good first step. Do you have anything like an MP3 player, iPod or anything?<\/p>\n<p>CALLER: My daughter has one. I could probably borrow hers.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: Here\u2019s what I\u2019m going to do, because work is no excuse. This is too important for you to say I wish I could listen more, but I can\u2019t. &#8216;Can\u2019t\u2019 never did anything.<\/p>\n<p>CALLER: That\u2019s true.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: So what I\u2019m going to do, don\u2019t hang up after our call. Mr. Snerdley, will pick the phone back up, we\u2019re going to make you an honorary member, a comp member for one year of RushLimbaugh.com the website.<\/p>\n<p>CALLER: Thank you.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: Going to make you a one-year subscriber to <a href=\"\/\/home\/menu\/limbaughletter_defeatthem.guest.html\">The Limbaugh Letter<\/a>, all comp. We\u2019re going to send you an iPod so you won\u2019t have to borrow your daughter\u2019s because that won\u2019t fly. <\/p>\n<p>CALLER: Oh, my goodness!<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: And then the thing you\u2019ve gotta learn to do, we\u2019ll have somebody walk you through it, you can get a daily download of the program in podcast that can transfer right to that iPod, and you can listen to it at night wherever you go, in the car, you can listen to it later, and it\u2019s done by, at the latest, four o\u2019clock in the afternoon.<\/p>\n<p>CALLER: Oh, great!<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: So no excuses &#8212; <\/p>\n<p>CALLER: All right!<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: &#8212; from now on.<\/p>\n<p>CALLER: Thank you.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: You bet.<\/p>\n<p>CALLER: You\u2019ve made my day.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: Well, I\u2019m used to doing that, and it\u2019s fun to do it. You just hang on. Don\u2019t hang up now, okay?<\/p>\n<p>CALLER: I won\u2019t.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: All right, that\u2019s Linda in Louisville. <\/p>\n<p>BREAK TRANSCRIPT<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: Mr. Snerdley, what was the name of our caller from Kentucky? Linda. Linda, I\u2019ve been thinking about your situation in Kentucky, because Linda told us that there\u2019s an antique law that they\u2019ve enforced there as part of their attempt to thwart Operation Chaos that if you wanted to switch parties and vote in another party\u2019s primary in Kentucky, that primary is in May, you have to have done it by December 31st. Nine thousand people have done it after December 31st. According to this antique law, these people are thus criminals. Now, for those of you in Kentucky, you 9,000 who have obviously been operating under the instructions and orders of Operation Chaos, now you\u2019re thinking, &#8216;Oh, my gosh, we\u2019ve been targeted, we\u2019re criminals!\u2019 Nothing\u2019s going to happen to you, just like nothing happened to us in Ohio. <\/p>\n<p>They threatened all kinds of indictments and investigations, but nothing happened, and it\u2019s not going to happen. I don\u2019t think that they have enough jail space for all the Republicans who switched over. I know they don\u2019t have enough jail space for all the illegals in Kentucky, and if they don\u2019t have all the jail space for all the illegals, I\u2019m sure they don\u2019t have enough for all the Republicans. Besides, as I told people in Pennsylvania yesterday, if you\u2019re really worried about this, in the Democrat primary, you can always go out and hire, and Pennsylvania, Kentucky, go out and hire an illegal immigrant to be you on election day, go vote for you. The Democrats want illegals to vote. So any number of ways around this, don\u2019t sweat this. These are just intimidation tactics coming from Democrat-led states designed to manipulate you and dispirit you. Do not let it happen. This is the big leagues. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>RUSH: Linda in Louisville, nice to have you on the EIB Network. Hello. CALLER: Thank you, Rush.
