Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!
Rules:
- Post only links to articles. Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.
Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.
Example:
- Articles must be relevant to US politics and contain quality and original content. Social Media adjacent hosts like Substack are allowed, but ONLY if they tie back to a company/subsidiary. No personal or friend group blogs and no self-promotion. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and re-hosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
- Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing other users of being bots or paid actors.
- No memes, trolling, misinformation, or low-effort posts/comments (including reposts). If you see posts like this that anger you, do not engage. Report, block, and live a happier life than they do. Any slap-fight is subject to comment removals. Fights full of rule violations will result in temporary bans to cool off.
- No manipulating votes via bots or alt accounts; this will result in permanent bans. Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.

We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules and use critical thinking when reading, posting, and commenting. Users that repeatedly have comments or posts removed, weaponize reports, or violate the code of conduct, will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users. The reason(s) behind moderator action(s) are publicly available through the Modlog.
That's all the rules!

I don't mean voter fraud is the theory. Yes, obviously it definitely happened and will happen again. I mean the commonly-repeated theory that there "won't be an election" next year. That is a great way to just capitulate the election in advance.
Honestly I might have replied to the wrong comment. I'm sorry.
Do you have facts to support that voter fraud occurred? Good faith question on my part. From the security people I follow that lean towards it didn't happen. If it and there are facts it would be good to know. People I primarily follow with background in security are Matt Blaze Brian Krebs Thanks
The links I have are on my computer and that's at work, sorry. The one thing I can tell you for certain is that Musk's media manipulation on Twitter constituted voter fraud. There are a ton of rumors about more direct manipulation, a lot of which I find unconvincing, but some of which I think merit further investigation.
Oh, there WILL BE “elections”. They need the circus spectacle to justify their existence.
But with Trump’s cronies in control of ballot machines, where votes can be deleted or altered after the fact, future elections are likely to be entirely performative; a thin veneer of legitimacy papering over a massive edifice of fraud and rot.
Trump could legitimately get zero votes and the voting system will still show him with a landslide victory. That’s their objective, after all. It’s torn straight from the Chinese and North Korea and Nazi Germany playbooks.
Just stop with this. It's a form of obeying in advance: buying into the despair of nothing being possible, and everything being broken.
Their plan is to make it seem like there's no point in fighting so nobody does, but if we give up the fight three years out we're just conceding that ground to them.
Yes, they're going to cheat. So we have to make it impossible for them to manipulate. Yes, they might try to make it look like a landslide anyway. So we have to be ready to take every single possible thing all the way through the courts.
Yes, the Supreme Court is a captured entity as well. So we have to overwhelm and clog up the apparatus they're using to make it do horrible things and force everyone from the poll worker all the way up to the SCOTUS justice to publicly go on record and say "voter fraud is ok." Then, when fascism falls (and it always does, don't kid yourself) we know who to throw in jail first.
Don't give up in advance. They want you to love Big Orange Brother or fear Big Orange Brother with every fiber of your being; either way, you'll never stand up to him.
We assume there's an election until there isn't. We assume it's fair (or fair-ish) until we have proof it isn't. Anything less is saying "eh, you can have this one."
