In yet another embarrassment for the Democratic Party, a would-be election fraudster won the nomination for U.S. Senate in South Carolina and will face Republican Tim Scott in November.

Krystle Matthews, who discussed importuning leftists to run as Republicans to trick voters, and asked for “dope boy money” to finance her campaign, defeated her opponent in Tuesday’s run-off election.

Just days before the primary run-off, Project Veritas released audio of Matthews’ conversation with a violent criminal who landed in prison for assaulting a cop.

Embarrassing as it sounds though, party faithful might be relieved. They might have a garden-variety crook as a senator, but party elites have become a motley crew of weirdos and sex deviants. 

The party’s top man, President Joe Biden, is turning the party’s top echelon into a clown show:

He chose a “trangender” groomer who enjoys “pup play” to help run the Energy Department. He picked a man-lady named Richard, who calls himself Rachel and pretends he is a woman, to help run Health and Human Services. And he hired an intellectually challenged lesbian Haitian immigrant to run his press shop. 

“Tongue-in-cheek”

In her bid to unseat Scott, Matthews defeated Catherine Fleming Bruce, who is billed as an “author and conservationist.”

After the victory, the radical black Democrat told the Associated Press that “people of South Carolina want somebody authentic and real”:

They are tired of people posing to be caring, posing to be intelligent, posing to be kind, and then finding out later on down the road that these people don’t even show up for them.

As well, AP reported, “Matthews has said she wants to change a toxic culture she says leads senators and others in power to strip away the rights of minorities and those who are in the most need of protection.”

Two days after defeating Bruce, Matthews apologized for discussing vote fraud with a hardened criminal.

“I apologize for my language in this private conversation and for offending my fellow Democrats,” she said.

Matthews said she welcomes an investigation into the vote-fraud and plea for “dope boy money” because she “has absolutely nothing to hide.”

She also wants a probe to find out who leaked the tape and invaded the privacy of the violent felon with whom she spoke, David Solomon Ballard.

Why Matthews was even speaking with Ballard, and how she knows him, is another question.

The Audio

Matthews discussed using straw candidates, a violation of federal election law, after Ballard asked “what can we do” to help her campaign, the audio revealed.

“I’m very much a n***** in a lot of ways, but I know how to turn it off and turn it on.” Matthews replied. “This is the only way you’re gonna change the, the dynamics in South Carolina”:

You gotta find some folks that are a little bit polished. Maybe are not, you know, nobody really knows them that well, maybe they haven’t really been politically active. But we need some secret sleepers.

Like you need, we need them to run as the other side, even though they for our side.… We need people to run as Republicans in these local elections. This is the only way you’re going to change the dynamics in South Carolina.

But that wasn’t the worst of it.

She specifically asked Ballard where she could find drug money to finance her campaign.

“S***, where the f****** dope?,” she asked:

Where the duffle bag boys?  Get you — find me somebody from your family that don’t even know you donating to my campaign and put that s*** under they names.

Matthews explained to AP that the conversation was just “tongue-in-cheek.”

“That’s the problem, when you have a private conversation, where people don’t have any context,” said the hard-left Democrat. “I am not advocating for any illegal activity in campaigns.”

As a mere election fraudster and campaign finance violator, Matthews would be something of a boring addition to the Democrat Party’s coterie of freaks and oddballs, which includes Sam Brinton, a deputy assistant secretary in the Energy Department who wears high heels and plays master to men who dress like dogs. “Rachel” Levine, the No. 2 official at HHS, is a “woman of the year” who wants kids on puberty blockers.
