In spite of all studies indicating relatively VERY little voting fraud, and VERY few instances of non-citizen voting, Trump and his MAGA cohorts DENIED his LOSS in the 2020 election.

Not only denied it. But conspired to overthrow the results with calls to "find" votes, with bogus lawsuits (like one filed by Ken Paxton against voting results of four other states),

with a fake elector scheme complete with fraudulent documents, with the Trump incited Capitol riot, an attempt to usurp the peaceful transfer of power, and with the 147 Republicans who, after all the above, voted against certifying PRESIDENT Biden's win.

And for four years thereafter, there was continuous whining on the part of Trump and his disciples. The audits, the fraudits (Cyber Ninjas my a---) the denials, the threats of violence,

the rigging of state laws that would have allowed the refusals of certifications, the installment of election deniers, and right winged lackeys who Trump had called by name,

the massive voter purges (1 million in Texas alone), the laws passed allowing any individual to challenge tens of thousands of voters' eligibility on the basis of little or NOTHING at all,

and all the while STILL refusing to accept Biden's win OR the results of the 2024 election should Trump had lost. Instead, they threatened war.

Add to all of that, the voting irregularities in PA on election night, the burned ballot boxes in minority and democratic voting districts, the bomb threats phoned in to various (democratic) districts, and more...

after all of which there were no MAGA questions or challenges to the "fairness" of it. Why? Because they had won.

So, while I personally haven't bought into any conspiracy theories (except the right wing conspiracy to CULL THE VOTE, which is no theory, but FACT),

I think, considering all the above, these election election results deserve at LEAST an investigation.

Do you know what a relative percentage is? crit thinker Nov 2024 #20
That's odd. Except for a few special elections and appointments, their seats are on the ballot every two years. marble falls Nov 2024 #27
