  1. Generating counterfeit ballots without leaving a trace is much harder than you imagine. If they're generated by machine, that leaves a trace. It would take an army to generate them manually, and again, that many conspirators in on the scheme virtually guarantees it will be exposed. Look at how much evidence was traced with the thousands that were in on the Jan 6th conspiracy to overturn the election. Many blabbed just due to shear stupidity.
  2. There are numerous security measures in place. But even if a few vote more than once without being caught, it is virtually impossible for enough to succeed to change the outcome. If the election is that close, the increased scrutiny means more will be caught. But the vast majority of elections are not nearly that close. IOW, the cost of voter suppression from Voter ID far outweighs any benefit from increased accuracy when voter impersonation fraud is extremely rare.. Just understand this: in order to succeed in changing the outcome many many individuals need to be in on the scheme and nothing with that many conspirators ever stays secret.
  3. Voter impersonation fraud is virtually non-existent. Everyone KNOWS the only viable way to steal an election is CORRUPTING the COUNT. AKA, poll workers or machine corruption. The one thing voter ID requirements are good for is disqualifying voters, which is what the Republicans want. AKA voter suppression. Particularly in certain neighborhoods, and that is why the lines are LONG there, and Republicans oppose vote by mail and drop boxes. Did you hear that Texas SoS declared ONLY ONE drop box per county? Not too much of a burden on rural counties, but Harris county has a population of 4.7M. Know who lives there and why Republicans in Texas want to make it harder for them to vote?
  4. It is a democratic republic. Look up the definition of republic. It INCLUDES democratic elections of representatives. That is the part that makes it hybrid of democracy and representation.
  5. "The people" do not exercise ANY power except through their representatives in the government and the FEW states which allow voter initiatives. However in some Republican run states, they've been known to just ignore or overrule the voters' choices. In FL, felons were given the right to vote by voter initiative, but the legislature and executive sabotaged that by adding a bunch of arbitrary and superfluous requirements ON TOP of the voters CHOICE. Just like Jim Crow made it very difficult for black people to vote. ?
  6. Too late, they already filed their NONSENSICAL ruling. Here in the US we all know what legislatures are doing when they put superfluous limitations on voting. Of course it had gotten more covert over time, until conservatives gained enough power on the court to enforce arbitrary restrictions (AGAIN). Then they trashed the voting rights act, pretending there were no longer racists trying to restrict the vote in black neighborhoods.
  7. Only by the protections it gives for individual rights. Like the the right to VOTE.
  8. It was ALWAYS supposed to be democratic CHOICE of representatives. And it was made MORE democratic in 1913 when Senators were first democratically elected.
  9. Sure. Democrats raised gas prices WORLDWIDE. LMAO Meanwhile the multi-national oil conglomerations are reporting RECORD PROFITS. They're the ones who ACTUALLY CONTROL PRICES charged.
  10. You mean the cleanup by "A spokesperson for Michels" SAID THAT LATER. Contradictory statements only mean one of them is LYING.
  11. It's a Republican candidate for governor declaring he will not allow Democrats to ever win in Wisconsin again if he's elected. Are you denying he said that? There are hundreds of other sources quoting him saying that. Just because you found a meme does not mean the Republicans are not planning to cheat their voters in future elections. Right now they have a case before the SCOTUS testing whether state legislatures can declare the winner of an election without interference from their courts nor a veto by the governor. ? Moore v Harper
  12. Your meme is right; IT is a JOKE. Republicans are working to rig elections in the future by deciding the winner in the state legislature if the Democrat gets MORE VOTES. As the Republican candidate for Wisconsin governor Tim Michels said: Republican says party ‘will never lose another election’ in Wisconsin if he wins AKA, the death of democratic elections.
  13. It is bullshit, because the envelopes' stamps are cancelled WITH a DATE showing when it was mailed.
  14. Of course the HUGE GRIFT BIG LIE was ALL ABOUT raising money. Now Trump has $100M to spend on his LEGAL EXPENSES, and his 2024 CAMPAIGN. Poor Donald. Election was "stolen," so he stole his CULT members' money with his FRAUD. Just one MORE possible charge he will defend with his cult members' money.
  15. The posters here who are in denial are the right wingers who BELIEVE anything that Trump says, when there is only a 10-20% chance it's true. The truth is that Trump is pathological and you have NO BASIS for calling any left wingers "in denial" just because you disagree. Ever consider that it might be you who is wrong? Reality checking. Try it. ? If you even know what that is....
  16. Yeah, just like there was a 90% chance that Hillary would win 2016. It ain't over til the fat lady sings. Duh. You have a vivid imagination vis a vis my world "crumbling." LMAO Pure PROJECTION.
  17. Twitter Roils With Hate Speech as Trolls Test New Limits My money is on cesspool.
  18. Far more plausible that Trump would succeed at overturning an election that went against him NEXT TIME, since he PUBLICLY declared that was what he'd do. At least Bannon disclosed that was HIS PLAN and Trump only committed to respecting the will of the people IF it was IN HIS FAVOR. Not sure whether you're ignorant of that, or just don't understand that is how FASCISTS come to power. It worked for Hitler. Do you at least understand THAT? ㊙️ Democrats believe in democracy. Unfortunately Republicans and right wingers no longer do.
  19. So you're saying Kirk says extremist things just to troll people? How is that better than really meaning it? Idiots can still take him seriously and act on it.
  20. The EC reps are put forth by the Party and are required by LAW to be the ones who vote at the EC. Whether they vote for the Party's candidate is a different issue.
  21. For starters; there are MANY MORE. Bank that lent $300m to Trump linked to Russian money laundering scam
  22. Of course you are. Trump is a conman and you keep demonstrating how easily you are conned.
  23. Hunter is NOT "Demi malfeasance." STILL, ALL you have here is SUSPICION and HYPOCRISY.
