RNC members agree with Trump: It's rigged

Donald Trump is spending the final weeks of his presidential bid declaring he's the victim of an unprecedented vote-rigging conspiracy meant to elect Hillary Clinton.

Many top Republican Party officials agree.

Interviews with more than two dozen members of the Republican National Committee reveal abiding fears of Democratic voting fraud and widespread belief that at least part of the process or outcome is rigged.

“I do believe that there are elements that will try to rig the election on varying degrees of scale and this will certainly affect the outcome in varying degrees,” said Peter Goldberg, an RNC committeeman from Alaska.

1. They should know from the year Bush won

[cstanleytech]

2. So does this mean the Bush election was rigged? What about Reagan?

[EV_Ares]

3. They are doing this to try to justify all of their voting suppression with their voter id conspiracy

theories. That party is a total mess.

Who knows the media might start trying to push it so they can get all kinds of crazy coverage from the crazy people after they lose the election threatening demonstrations, cheating. Should be good for several days coverage for cable news.

[Martin Eden]

4. Vote rigging is totally UNNECESSARY for Hillary to win this election

If anything, watch out for Republican-controlled states that have been trying to disenfranchise minority voters, either by passing onerous ID laws or purging citizens from the voter rolls.

5. That explains why all the governors are democrats!!11! Oh, wait...

[Mc Mike]

7. '82 Consent Decree, gopers.

'nuff said.

8. RNC is the Politburo at this point

ideologues to the end

9. the rs keep pulling this " dead bodies " shit voting every prez elction what a scam.

been shot down numerous timess

[LastLiberal in PalmSprings]

12. Now it's "voting multiple times" and "allowing illegal immigants to vote"

"Rigged election" is just this year's birtherism.

[TrollBuster9090]

13. Curious how those 'dead bodies' always vote for Republicans in the House races, though.

Dead bodies are funny that way.

[TrollBuster9090]

11. If GERRYMANDERING counts as 'rigging,' then they should know what they're talking about. nt

[Chakab]

14. These idiots can't help themselves. The reason that Trump exists is because they've spent years

denying reality and priming their base with all of this conspiracy theory bullshit.

[Bernardo de La Paz]

15. It's rigged.

That's the only way tRump could get to be the nominee.

It's rigged by the media for blustery newsmakers who lie through their teeth. There is little fact checking, lots of hyping entertainment value, and incessant attempts to keep it a horse race.

The reason is that the above con scheme makes profits for the media.

[Thor_MN]

16. Mr. Trump, it's not that people are out to get you,

it's that they really, really hate you.

[judesedit]

18. Then they must all be in office illegally if elections are rigged.

[Kablooie]

19. The elephants are Trumpeting their stupidity to all the world.

They've decided that the way to bolster the Republican brand and build political power is to toady along behind Donald Trump as he descends down into the dank, sewers of disrepute and despair.

21. From the people who brought us Florida 2000

Ohio 2004 and apparently tried again with Ohio in 2004* and voter suppression across the country.

If anyone would know a rigged election, it would be these people.

* Assuming Anonymous claims are true. And given Rove's near stroke that evening when Ohio didn't go his way I'm inclinded to think it is.

22. If so, 33 states are rigged by Republicans

If the election is really rigged, 33 states are rigged by Republicans
Only 17 states and the District of Columbia have Democratic-controlled electoral systems.

23. Of course the Republicans think it's rigged...it was rigged that this baffoon won their primary !

[the_sly_pig]

24. Count the hanging chads ya punks.

Absolutely no proof of vote tampering, but there is proof of voter suppression.
