Yep, that's right, 119 v**ers would have been c***ted,because of REPUBLICAN dirty tricks, as usual.

And the trumpcons always say 'well both sides do it' when they get caught, but they never admit that republicans are the masters of v**er suppression, but they will lie and distort and ALWAYS blame democrats for v***r f***d.

A classic example of the pot/kettle cliche.

And the repuke party must be terrified that Florida may be fed up with trump and his scumbags still trying to steal v**es and rig e******ns

Republicans police their party, Democrats don't.

While the major media fixates on the influence of foreign powers on American e******ns, a much more serious attack has been taking place right under our noses: Good old-fashioned, home-grown v***r f***d. Let’s look at three of the worst offenses.

Example number one: bloated v**er rolls.

In 244 counties across the United States, there are more registered v**ers than there are people legally eligible to v**e. Twenty-nine states have counties with more registered v**ers than legal residents. And eight states have more registered v**ers than actual v****g-age people.

When the Supreme Court upheld Ohio’s efforts to clean up its own v**er rolls in 2018, the majority opinion cited Pew Center statistics: 24 million v***r r**********ns in the United States are either “invalid or significantly inaccurate.” And nearly 3 million people are believed to be registered to v**e in more than one state.

These numbers have a shocking implication: It’s very easy to exploit our v****g system. During an undercover investigation, New York City detectives made 63 attempts to cast illegal b****ts based on flawed v**er rolls. They were successful 61 times. Similar investigations in other cities and other states produce the same dismal results. But phony v**ers on the rolls is just one threat to e******n integrity.

Here’s example number two: b****t harvesting.

In 2016, the state of California—one of the states with more registered v**ers than citizens—became the first state to legalize the practice of b****t solicitation; that is, the collection and delivery of b****ts by third parties. With no trace of irony, this is called “b****t harvesting.”

It works like this: In California, organizations with a clear political agenda are legally permitted to go to a location—say, a nursing home or a church, and collect—literally harvest—b****ts. The third party then t***sports these b****ts to a polling place or an e******n office.

This raises an obvious question: Once this third party collects the b****ts, what’s to stop them from changing them—or from just throwing out the ones they don’t like? A guilty conscience? How do we know b****t harvesters from Democratic organizations aren’t destroying Republican b****ts? Or Republican harvesters aren’t destroying Democratic b****ts? We don’t. We have no way of knowing.

Let’s look at one specific example. On E******n Night 2018, California Central Valley Republican Congressman David Valadao held a 5,000-v**e lead over his challenger, Democrat T.J. Cox. The margin was wide enough that the networks even called the race for Valadao, the Republican incumbent.

But wait!

There were late b****ts still to be delivered by the third-party v**e harvesters. When those v**es came in, they broke so overwhelmingly for Cox (in a historically conservative district, no less) that Valadao’s 5,000-v**e victory became an 862-v**e loss.

Maybe that was just a coincidence. Or maybe not.

In the first major e******n after b****t harvesting was allowed in California, Democrats won every single congressional seat in Orange County, which had been a Republican stronghold for decades. A year earlier, no sober person would have thought that possible.

V**er corruption example number 3: V****g by non-citizens.

Should you have to be a citizen to v**e? Silly question, right? It was once. Not anymore.

According to a recent poll, more than half of Democrats—53%—support granting i*****l i*******ts the right to v**e—forget the legal ones!

Democratic National Chair Tom Perez, before working for the Obama administration, worked for a group called CASA de Maryland, which has been a longtime advocate for expanding non-citizen v****g rights.

Yes, it’s true that federal law prohibits noncitizens from v****g in federal e******ns. But 11 states, all run by Democrats, currently allow noncitizen v****g of some kind. Cities such as Chicago and San Francisco, for example, allow noncitizens to v**e in certain city-wide e******ns. Why? Because for progressives, demography is destiny, and many see i*****l i*******ts as future v**ers.

So, there you have it—three different ways to tamper with the v**e:

Bloated v**er rolls.

B****t harvesting.

V****g by non-citizens.

These are just three ways in which the left creates a clear advantage for itself on E******n Day.

The major media will tell you that corrupt v****g practices either don’t exist or are so minor they don’t matter. But to believe that, you have to believe two things: That v***r r**********n rolls are accurate and secure from fraudulent registrations, and that no one is trying to manipulate the results for political purposes. Those are two very big leaps.

Maybe you want to make those leaps because you like the results they produce. But if you care about free and f**r e******ns, no matter which party you belong to, you need to pay attention. Or pretty soon, free and f**r e******ns will be a quaint relic of the past.

No foreign government can undermine our democracy. But Americans can—and some do.

Don’t care which party it is, they need to be charged and spend time in jail!!! Forget the petty fines involved. ...

The system has been so undermined that very few people believe our e******n to be free of shenanigans by either party.

The key word in this topic is the term , "fraud".

And some of the most recent acts of fraud have been publicly carried out by the Democrat party.

They "fraudulently" accused and "fraudulently" investigated our Noble President.

And their own chosen prosecutor, Robert Mueller, had to explain to them that there was "No Collusion With Russia "

Which proved that the accusations and the subsequent investigations, were absolutely "fraudulent".

So when a pip squeak left handed stunt monkey , uses terms like fraud in a topic posted on this forum, you can pretty much believe that you get zero credibility............................|}|t©π

And they don’t fart. Don’t forget that.

I was recently in the Santa Monica Public Library's main branch, it was several days before local/primary e******n day, and they had a b****t box set up already -- people were filling out their b****ts well ahead of time, then someone would collect the b****ts and "t***sport" them to wherever they tally them.

Undoubtedly, this is the same all over the state, so I can just imagine how many non-lefty b****ts end up in the circular file.

Wolf counselor Loc: Heart of Texas

That was rather unbecoming of you ma'am.

Your name "Eden" gives the impression of peace and serenity.

But the foulness of your thoughts just ruins it all.............. doesn't it ?

woodguru

What's the punchline? Did you follow the e******n f***d in North Carolina where the republican was paying for a crew to intercept absentee b****ts by targeted address? That fine republican should be in jail, but he has never been gone after, just the guy he contracted. This had been going on for many e******ns.

woodguru

But not vice a versa?
