2016 Postmortem
Related: About this forumHere are examples of dirty-tricks that right-wingers in Ohio and Fla., and organizations like
"True The Vote.org.", are doing right now in tampering with the voting system. The right-
wingers aren't very subtle about what they're doing, either. Could the reason be they think
they can do anything, and the Democrats will just take it? Can anyone think of effective
ways of stopping them?
Are we dealing with human beings, or are we dealing with monsters?
Monsters belong in cages.

(1,301 posts)I really hope the commentators will make a concerted effort to
make people aware of what lies ahead...we need monitors at all of
the polls.
certainly be hard to find in the MSM.

(50,888 posts)First, all Democrats should re-register. Maybe even do it once a month to place a burden on the election office.
Second, find out who is challenging the registrations and challenge theirs.
Third, file multiple lawsuits in those jurisdictions that appear to abuse the registration process against the election officials and county commissioners.
Since they have made it more difficult for voter registration drives the process needs to change. Instead of conducting them and turning in the completed forms provide an awareness program in locations such as the public library. When a person completes the registration form have them turn it into the appropriate person at the library in charge of the forms. In other locations provide the person with an envelope addressed and stamped for them to include their form. It might be possible to include more than one completed form but that is something for those living in Florida need to figure out.
I did not see anything in the instructions that specified that only one completed form can be mailed at a time.

(7,018 posts)a taste of their own medicine. They have long since earned it. As to their half-truths,
falsehoods and outright lies, we'll tell the public the truth. The word "truth" must be
a stranger to the MSM by now. And it has been a total stranger to media like
Fox News from Day One since they began airing.
There are some Democrats who believe that right-wingers should be treated like
gentlemen. UNfortunately, they belong to the type where if you give them an inch,
they will take a mile. Their moral development has been arrested at the stage of
that of a small child. They are morally primitive. A child will grow out of this stage,
but a sociopath will not. His moral growth is arrested - stucki - at this stage, and
he cannot come out of it.
a taste, of their own medicine. (Who knows, they might even cry out "FOUL!"
The only things that will help to stop their deplorable cheating, deceptive and
conscienceless behavIor is their fear of punishment and retaliation in any form.
This, to them, is strength. This they recognize. They would only make further
use and take that mile when they are treated with gentleness. They may not say
it, but in their minds you're a sucker who is just begging to be taken -- and they'd
be very happy to oblige.
What have other Progressives to say about the above? And, if more are in agreement,
how do we make sure that our Democratic leaders will get to hear about this. And
we might add, there'isn't much time left.
There is also this extremely important ;point of the right-wingers' non-stop fraudulent
practices in voting and in elections.
I hope more readers will throw in more practical ideas. And, as said above, there isn't
a whole lot of time left.
COME ON, DEMOCRATS, LET'S FIGHT BACK TOGETHER !!!
