There Really Was Some Voter Fraud!

[plague311]

Are you telling me you think the extent is only the few cases reported in the media? Is that really what you believe? Out of 155 million votes cast?

Again, I have said nothing about large-scale organized efforts...by either party.

Until there's some evidence that there is more than is being reported then assuming makes an ass out of u and ming.

The real funny part is that some people believe that voter fraud is just the reported handful of cases out of 155 million ballots cast. And that it is predominantly only from the "other party", of course.

This is what passes for "critical thought", around here. Comically stupid.

You know what would have been better than this childish sputtering? Show us how it's done- show some evidence for more than just the handful of cases, something more empirical than anecdotal evidence for any systematic effort by either party. If you can do that, you're doing more than any of the other pols pushing the meme as a way to scare their flock, or the idiots who gobble that crap up. Otherwise, all you're doing here is making exactly the sort of mindless noises that really are comically stupid.

Put up or shut the **** up- my guess is that you won't be able to do either.

Tough words.

Who said anything about large-scale organized efforts by either party? Maybe read what I wrote again, and analyze it more closely.

Then again, I am not asking anyone to leave their comfort zone, here.

<--- There's one you've earned. Seriously, good job, very Trumpian- all you did there was to act exactly as I guessed you would. And are continuing with it, I see- very comical (at least).

"The only crimes that are committed are those which are discovered and reported to authorities."

Sometimes I wonder how people get through life with this sort of thinking.

That's a nice strawman you've built there.

What voter fraud are you referring to?

The sooper-sekrit kind, obviously.

Yeah basically all the Republicans can prove is that even when they attempt to turn into a self-fulfilling prophecy, you can't actually do the kind of large scale voter fraud they have convinced their cult members is common place.

It won't matter because facts don't exist anymore, but it's still funny.

It's a feedback loop. Republicans need to have pretext for election rigging (voter purges, access restriction, etc), so they spread lies about impersonation fraud (which doesn't happen to any meaningful degree), and the biggest rubes in their base are convinced it's true and try to give it a whirl to get instantly found out.

3 deranged Florida boomers decided that voter fraud was easy to do and painted big felony targets on their backs, but that's just a bit of collateral damage for the right wing project of entrenching the Republican party as a permanent ruling minority. Their lives getting complicated by felony charges is just the result of the waste heat of the Republican vote suppression machine. Operatives in the party don't give a **** about "voter fraud", but these idiots are too stupid to realize that.

ETA personal anecdote: The most brain-poisoned Massachusetts CHUDs are absolutely convinced that MA liberals bus up to NH to commit voter impersonation fraud, to the point that some have gone on "stakeouts" to spot the buses traveling north. Seems only a matter of time before one of these morons trips dick-first into a criminal vote fraud charge.

Again I love as a longtime skeptic watching the general masses hit the brick wall of arguing with Woo Slingers.

"Oh it's a conspiracy so there's no evidence, so the fact that there's no evidence means the conspiracy is true" hidden under a bunch of trolling and doublespeak.

Yeah that's a very, very old tactic. The "normies" just have to put up with now so it's a big deal.

Sometimes I really wonder if you read the thread comments. My gut feeling is, "NO".

 

[ToddH]

Sounds like we need a forensic audit of every race Republicans won.

 

[Norman Alexander]

What I'm seeing from the GQP so far is this:

There's PLENTY of Democratic voter fraud. That's how they won! They won, so it MUST have been fraud. Just that every time you look for it, "they" cover it up. All 320 million of "they". And Italy. And China. But we will find it! One fine day...

On the other hand, there's NO Republican voter fraud. Zero. None. Just as long as you overlook the tiny handful of instances of Republicans who the authorities found DID do voter fraud. But they're just yokel dummies. They can be ignored. And it didn't change the outcome anyway. So, meh.

The Heritage Foundation...not exactly know for its liberalism ...has compiled all the known cases of voter fraud convictions. I went through the first 3 pages and in almost every single case where the political party of the convicted fraudster is given, it's Republican. So much for 'anecdotal'.

I was waiting for an extremely non-partisan analysis. Stacy never disappoints.

******* clown shoes. I love laughing at this stuff.

Democrats actually do this way more often, they are just much more competent than the Republicans. Not sure why the right wingers are so stupid.

Let's ignore the preponderance of actual, reported instances of Repub voter fraud and wank off over the imagined deluge of Dem fraud that surely must be occurring.

By this metric everyone is allowed to imagine whatever they wish. No evidence required.

Out of curiosity, of 155 million ballots cast, what fraction do you claim are fraudulent? And how do they break down by Party? And if you have any evidence... a cite?

 

[The Great Zaganza]

Yes, it is funny how Warp takes absence of proof of voter fraud as proof of voter fraud.
It just feels truthy that Dems cheat, because the only other conclusion is that Democrats have a significant majority of Americans behind them, and that can't be true.

The absence of evidence of Democratic Party malfeasance is clear evidence of how corrupt the Democratic Party must be whereas the abundance of evidence of Republican Party malfeasance is evidence of their fundamental honesty.

You see, only someone who is, at heart, honest would bungle their misdeeds so badly that they are easily discovered. They simply aren't practiced enough to cover things up properly.

OTOH someone with a clean record is clearly a master of covering up and must have a massive network of Deep State operatives to help them. Any occasional slip in the cover up (like with Franken's or Cuomo's sexual assaults) is likely to be deliberate (to give the impression of fallibility) and/or because they have fallen out of favour with TPTB.

 

[The Great Zaganza]

there is some truth to that: if you know that the cops and prosecutors and most of the Senate will always support you if you are White, thinking about how not to attract the attention of the Johnny Law isn't something you bother to learn.
The Jan 6 communications show how blissfully unaware the Putschists were that they might be spending the next decades behind bars.

Compare that to Black Bloc, where people work to stay anonymous because they know that PDs will put in 100x the effort to find a left-wing protestors near the scene of a broken window than right-wing militia guys using violence against reporters or minorities.
