BeaverFever Posted August 17, 2021 Report Share Posted August 17, 2021 (edited) Voter fraud is real! BUT it turns out that it’s mostly Republicans committing the fraud and the current system is good enough to catch them. The latest Republican mass disenfranchisement of black people not required! And of course because “there’s no systemic racism” we should completely ignore the fact that all the white male Trump supporters who deliberately committed voter fraud for Trump got slaps on the wrists and verbal warnings while the one black woman who was unaware that she wasn’t YET eligible to vote was sent to prison for 5yrs over an honest misunderstanding! GOP voter caught casting a ballot for a dead relative A white voter in Pennsylvania cast an illegal ballot for his dead mother. He received a vastly lighter sentence than Crystal Mason. This keeps happening. Aug. 17, 2021, 9:20 AM EDT In the wake of Donald Trump's defeat last fall, Republicans launched a desperate search for illegally cast ballots to help justify the GOP's conspiracy theories. But as regular readers know, despite all the hysterical rhetoric, only a handful of legitimate allegations have been raised -- and some of the most notable examples involve Republicans casting illegal ballots on behalf of dead relatives. ….As we've discussed, there are a handful of ways to look at incidents like these. My first thought is of Crystal Mason, who cast a provisional ballot in the 2016 while on supervised release for a federal conviction. She didn't know she was ineligible to vote, and her ballot was never counted, but Mason -- a Black woman -- was convicted of illegal voting and sentenced to five years in prison. It's hard not to notice that White men like Robert Richard Lynn, Edward Snodgrass, and Bruce Bartman received vastly more lenient sentences, despite the fact that they knowingly hatched schemes to cast illegal ballots on behalf of dead relatives.… https://www.msnbc.com/rachel-maddow-show/another-gop-voter-caught-casting-ballot-dead-relative-n1276965 Edited August 18, 2021 by BeaverFever Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
