Vote fraud was a concern for the last 3 or 4 months. Everyone knew mail in voting was going to be a mess. And there have been many concerning issues.

It does warrant investigated as enlightenment values of truth requires. Just dismissing it as a conspiracy is anti enlightenment values.

My personal view/suspicion. The Dem balot harvesting was very successful, but little or irrelevant actual fraud.

But we don't know the truth yet and you can't find it on Twitter.

Vote fraud was a concern because Trump decided it would be. And all the acolytes slurped up the orange juice as per usual

So voting for something means you don't support it ??


So we could just kill someone but it's ok because we don't support it

I'm not convinced GA will be blue. Those military votes will be overwhelmingly red.

Trump was reckless with the military vote. He publicly shamed both soldiers and the leadership in recent months. Also the story that came out about Russia paying bounties for US troops deployed in Afghanistan and Trump supposedly being aware of it and not saying or doing anything.

Cop out. The Dems are out of touch with Latino voters, especially Cubans. Even AOC knew this.

AOC: Democrats' weakness with Latinos was foreseeable​


I said it in the previous thread; Latinos are conservative-leaning (especially Cubans). Dems thought Trump being racist and the wall and immigration was enough for them to win. It wasn't. Just think for a bit; how are you going to win Cuban votes when you are coming from a socialism or socialist angle? There is a reason why they are in the USA.

I'd recommend reading through this thread to get some real-world opinions on how the Latino voters see things:

Not sure why you think this isn't compatible with what I posted? I was responding to noxibox's point about gullibility, to point out how there was an insane disinformation campaign going on.

And I also pointed out (a couple of times actually) that Cuban Americans are mostly Republican - they've been for decades. They're very socially conservative, being heavily Catholic. The slight shift towards Democrats in the early 2010s was the historical anomaly, not them voting Republican now.

The shift wasn't uniform anywhere, either. In Arizona, the Latino vote was overwhelmingly pro-Biden, for example. Moreso even than Sinema in 2018, who already ran up the score massively.

How hard can it be to beat a senile, low energy geriatric who sniffs people, has pedo tendencies and has been peddling influence for his sons crooked deals?

Bloody hell, even Hillary would have been declared winner on Tuesday if she was running against this grandpa

This is why I want to punch people when they say there is no point in voting because the main parties are equally terrible and voting for a smaller party is pointless. You can still affect an election.

Maybe some people don't feel qualified to make a decision?

I have said this before, but one amendment I would love to do to all democratic countries is increase the voting threshold required in legislatures based on the inverse of the turnout. If people don't rock up to vote, politicians need a greater majority to pass legislation. Therefore if the electorate isn't happy with any of the political parties, they simply don't vote and political parties have to either start working together or be forced to do nothing.

Make voting mandatory.
Have your national election day made a public holiday.
