And almost all cases of voter fraud involve Rethugs. Pieces of shit, one and all.

Repubs think that because they commit election fraud and voter suppression, therefore the Dems must be doing it also.

Their only evidence is that they (Repubs) are doing it.

I knew voter fraud didn’t sound right, but the term “election fraud” didn’t come to mind. The entire Thug party is a fraud. It needs to be eradicated.

Midterms. And we worked our buns off getting out the vote. Republicans have to cheat to win. Gerrymandering was what saved them in many areas. We got so close to flipping several seats for a variety of races, from school board to general assembly. They are known cheaters. NC is more blue than we get credit for. I hope this creep loses. Shenanigans are definitely at play here. The blue ground game is strong.

I did not originate this thought but would like to pass it along. A couple of weeks ago there were over 300 million Lottery tickets sold nationwide for the PowerBall. Within four hours of the drawing, all the winning numbers, the States in which they were sold, and even down to the store where the ticket was bought were identified.

But we can't get honest elections, or accurate, timely vote counts in any State where Republicans have been in command the last decade. Fair and honest voting should be the cornerstone of a Democracy, and this Countries elections are an abysmal joke. Closer and closer to a Third World Country. Hell, even some of them probably have better run elections.
