Mail in ballots puts doubt in people’s minds..
No, only yours. Do you need someone to explain to you what a cellphone is again? Do you comprehend that we can send electronic messages called email? Exactly how outdated is your understanding of the world?
@AbdoGamal-ge3yn
What a troll.
@Fred Ede
The military have conducted election in this manner for years. There has been no doubt about mail in ballots from the military.
We need to stop spreading trumps election lies and stop Internet trolls who do this to get attention but have zero clue what they’re talking about.
You’ve been indoctrinated, used, fooled and conned. Nobody’s ‘cheating’ at the vote count except the Orange Cheeto. And he’s being indicted and prosecuted for it. Pay attention.
Why? Do you mail things? They get where they’re supposed to go. What is the problem? You magat’s don’t like mail-in ballots because your dear leader TOLD you not to like it.
Crypto sabotaged you.
Mail in ballots are supposed to be exclusively reserved for those who are seriously limited in their ability to leave the house and for military members who live away from their voting jurisdictions. Everyone else should 100% be going to a polling station.
@BlackTar Except that the Washington legislature is attempting to remove signature verification from your ballot. If that verification is removed, anyone could cast a ballot in your name without your consent.
Voting is a right. As long as my ballot gets to its destination, it’s not up to anybody. Stop closing Voting sites. Offer public transportation. Vote at any federal building.
@Eric Inman 🎯💯
So it’s bad to make it easier to vote. Noted.
@Elirien in a Republic ALL citizens should have easy access to the ballot box. Gerrymandering & attacking mail-in voting is disenfranchising minorities, the poor, the disabled, & college students.
No reason mail in ballots need to be restricted at all. Republicans just want it to be harder to vote, because they win more when people don’t vote.
There’s no evidence of widespread fraud or greater fraud due to mail in ballots.
Good for them! 💙
Bad for Voters and democracy.
But not good for the people of that district.
It’s time to lock up trump and any republican who lies to the public and pull the fcc license of Fox News
The uneducated don’t know how to recognize voter fraud (or its absence). They get an idea from malicious politicians (guess who) and run with it.
Republicans gerrymander anyway they can…..
If there wasn’t something happening that they were about to get stuck with they wouldn’t have left.
So James thinks it’s like the Middle Ages: If they sink to the bottom of the Lake, they were innocent, right??
Whatever nut job. Biden wins, Trump whines. Sorry bout your luck with that.
@Alvan Because a windmill turns when there is wind, it is obvious that a windmill creates wind.
@bubble jim If the shoe fits 🤣 (literally)
Guilty until proven innocent: Your republican justice.
Widespread voter fraud is like god. It doesn’t exist.
Trump has wrecked the G.O.P. And is threatening to wreck our Republic.
Good riddance

GFY

Bullying anonymously online is a coward move.
We also don’t talk about how your mom quit you, because they’re both irrelevant.
At least they didn’t go to jail like Trump’s associates..
Typical brainwashed trump cultists spewing lies
For republikkkans voter fraud is Democrat votes.
These Republicans and their supporters not only in this location but Nationwide are terrorists and traitors and trying to steal elections everything they’ve complained about but had no evidence for. They need to be rounded up charged indicted prosecuted for these crimes it’s disgusting
Republican priorities, in order.
1. Take Power by _ANY_ means
2. Reward the rich for being rich
3. Punish the poor for being poor
4. Punish nonwhites for being nonwhite
5. Punish women for being women
6. Radicalize christians (even more)
7. Abolish Education forever
They will be replaced with people of no integrity.
The sad thing about democrats is they are so lost and evil that I believe there is no coming back. They think it’s ok to give puberty blockers to young kids, put masks on kids, experimental vaccines, drag queen story hour, no cash bonds for criminals, they love antifa and blm hooligans etc. EVERYTHING that’s agains American values the democrats are for. 😢
The party of Lincoln has become the party of John Wilkes Booth.
Whaaaaat?! Republicans trying to overthrow democracy because they’re whiney babies?! Nooooooooo!
People see what your GOP is doing. America is not really America anymore.
America hasn’t been American since the New Deal.
No, it’s rapidly becoming an authoritarian state and too many dummies who are cheering for don’t even realize what they’re cheering for–just as long as they “own the Libs”. Idiots….
A “national conversation that’s going on ?”
🤣😂
*THEY WANT THEM TO QUIT!. THESES SHENANIGANS WILL NOT WIN ELECTIONS!. **#FULLSTOP*
They weren’t baseless claims…
Sigh… Wake up. Yes they were. Not going to debate it here because this is such an old tired played out argument. There was no voter fraud, period, end of story.
They are…
They are only pushing for trumps election lies. Are you telling me Trump won the election?
They are baseless allegations, because there is no proof even after several audits. The election staff conducted the election in the manner they were told by the boss at the state level.
You lost. Get over it or you will all lose like Kari Lake.
They are. They ALL are. Your boy couldn’t handle losing and it’s come to this.
When you are dealing with the grand lie, things seem to spiral down. When I hear that someone stood on the principles and resigned, I wonder is this leads to spiraling down with the game of replacing them with people who don’t stand on the principles.
I hope those rural voters can’t register to vote in our “rigged” elections.
And once again the Republicans don’t have evidence of voter fraud other than the words of a man who lost the election. (Pretty unreliable source don’t you think?)
Funny when idiots with no integrity question people with real integrity. Then they quit like cowards to let the wolves in the henhouse. Grow a backbone with your integrity stupid..
“It seemed incredibly important for us to stay at our jobs, so we all decided to quit.”
Exactly what the Republicans wanted them to do, so now they can replace them with people who will actually commit fraud for the Republicans, just like the GOP trainers that told poll workers to break the rules during the online training sessions, which were recorded, and exposed their willingness to committ voter fraud.
“People think the election s was stolen”
Fox news “the election was stolen”
“People think the election is stolen”
Fox news “the election was stolen”
Notice a pattern right?
They’ll do whatever they can to destroy, divide for a one party, no government ruler. We should round them all up, and let them go fight for Putin, because that’s what they’re aspiring to, Russia not America.
And so there’s a vacuum and guess who thinks they might fill it?
Why? You insist on holding elections on a work day. You limit the number of polling stations. You therefore constrain the ability of people to exercise their constitutional right to vote (which of course is the intent). Mail in ballots are actually used as much if not more by Republicans and it’s standard practice in other jurisdictions. The evidence of fraud is so minor as to be risible.
Republicans are the dumbest people on the planet.
So they run away before they got caught ? Is that what I am hearing?
What’s wrong with you?
Do you still believe in the rumor that trumps election was stolen? Since if I was the election staff, I will probably quit as well like imagine being threatened, because you conduct the election as you were told by the state to conduct them in that manner.
Election staff don’t have a say in the states election law and they do as they are told.
Even though you clearly want to announce it to the world, nobody really cares how stupid you are. Close your mouth when you breathe.
We the People are tired of the radical right’s bullying.
No, genius. They got sick of the harrassment and LYING. But you do you.
The danger is that they might be replaced with corrupt officials that fully enjoy corruption
Of course they will be. This is about rigging everything. I don’t know how many insiders we have to hear from until it’s taken seriously!
Bingo that was the plan from jump street the republicans no they are the minority. That’s why the electoral college is around.And they Don’t want big voter turnout.
The Republican Party is fast tracking Americans slow creep to Authoritarianism. Where conspiracy is taken act face value as fact, and any neigh-sayers have to be exposed and destroyed.
It’s all part of the grand scheme…
Count on it.
Gerrymandering & attacking the integrity & safety of mail-in voting is how the GOP is hijacking elections.
Republicans are trying to take over the country. Nazis

Republicans are truly destroying our great nation.
They spread hate, violence, fear and lies to American people.
Why are republicans always trying to cheat!
It will stop when you track back to the nasties who are sending them . Cowardly little petty shitheels.
All the knowledge in the universe at our finger tips and people latch on to rumors from social media.
Used to think the lack of access to information made people sound stupid….The internet has proven that to be a lie.
Yup.
~POPULAR SITCOM CANCELLED~
Producers have decided it’s finally time for the Series Finale of the politically incorrect comedy show “THE MAGA REPUBLICANS” which ran for 6 seasons. Now in a disappointing 7th season, viewers are saying it has lost all its charm. Recent revelations of scandals by the child actors have tainted its popularity and ratings have tanked. Producers are developing a new show with a new lineup going in the direction of a drama.
They quit and someone who doesn’t care about the integrity of democracy will take their place. If we let bullying win and we all lose…
It’s a shame they resigned. Too bad they played into the dictatorship intentions.
Republicans fault ban guns now gop sucks
The Republicans are playing so ugly and so dirty
With todays republican election officials doing this there is without question ulterior motives involved and I would trust ABSOLUTELY ZERO ELECTION RESULTS under their control!!! When you have nutcases boasting that they will Install whoever they want in an election regardless of who truly WINS BY POPULAR VOTE TALLY you best believe them!!
The republiKKKlan objective is to replace with right-wing election staff!
what kind reporting is that…? Where could this end?
Civil war.
The bullies are back. Believe me, they just aren’t smart enough to stay out of trouble.
Baseless voter fraud claims: the on-going republican effort to undermine democracy, just like good fascists do.
They did EXACTLY what the Magats wanted them to do. God knows who will end up in those positions now.
Baseless, yeah aight.
They couldn’t prove that voter fraud didn’t exist
