Quelling skepticism in the voting process..

EatTheRich

President
Let's see...

Deliberate removal of mailboxes
Fake ballots
Slowing/holding the mail
Decommissioned mail sorters on purpose
Russian hacking of vote machines
Xeroxing paper ballots
Hiding ballots
Ballots appearing/disappearo in the night
Oh, Russia ...
Identification is too High a hurdle for minorities..

To list just a few
Voter ID laws were *intended* to be an insuperable obstacle for some minorities, as per a judicial finding. Trump *openly* said he was sabotaging the USPS to make it harder to vote against him.

You mean like the Boston Tea Party, The Boston Massacre and the whole revolutionary war were unethical and immoral? ha ha

That kind of reaction of protesting the capitol at one time would have had the officials that be demanding a bi-partisan commission to count the votes (and forensically too) and prove how badly Trump lost once and for all.

The righteous anger against the steal (true or not) was and is highly moral and ethical given how the call for accounting was not answered.
Trump supporters went to dozens of courts in front of partisan Republican judges to make their claims and they had no evidence on their side. They didn’t want a commission, unless it was a means to fulfilling their goal of reversing the election result despite the will of the voters.

Have you @PhilFish @Spamature @Bugsy McGurk read my signature?

YOU ask for proof before allowing for an actual investigation!?! What the [Unwelcome language removed] kind of shit is that? Suspicion is the threshhold for an investigation.

There were months of investigation.

Tell it to 10's of millions some of who stormed the capitol over the matter of a stolen election. But of course stick you head in the sand about what others believe or the need to bring them back into the fold. You REALLY, REALLY know what you're talking about.
Not stolen. Just lost, by a bunch of sore losers.

I don't think a study is needed. Each state should provide complete documentation of the process from the time you enter a polling station or mail your ballot. If people knew the process they would understand how bizarre the accusations are.
Nearly all Republicans know their candidate lost fair and square. They pretend otherwise to give their violent attacks on Constitutional democracy a fig leaf of respectability.
 

EatTheRich

President
Don't need proof just suspicion in order to investigate. Good for the goose is good for the gander as they say. Investigating Trump on suspicion set the standard.

Besides there is proof enough. You have poll watchers sent home telling people the counting was done for the night. In Atlanta they dragged ballots from under a table and started counting them after they lied about ending for the night. There are other examples just like it and and 1/3 of Americans believe that to be proof. Deal with it already.
Poll watchers were not sent home, that’s just one more facet of your big lie.

Yes, I’d say that would be worthwhile - assuming that we still have some interest in preserving the union. There certainly were credible instances of - at a minimum - individual state election rules being flouted. While these instances my well have been isolated and/or not of sufficient import to impact election outcome, it seems like we would benefit from assuring that the system is secure and procedurally above reproach.

I’m not sure why anyone would oppose “bipartisan demonstration that the process is secure”.
To my knowledge any such concerns have been addressed by the courts with the 2020 election as with every election prior.

Almost, maybe 80% and the sign language guy made more sense to me. Nobody got shot or killed as he warned. But this little shit shouldn't have gone along with Abrams consent decree. I don't care about a kid working for dominion. I just don't. And Gabriel showed no anger to the cluster fsck that is Atlanta's elections precinct. Another CYA stand up angry act.
Several have been killed, no?

Actually, I called STACKING POTENTIAL threats of “twindemic” across our major media networks “fear porn”. Now…we’re even supposed to be afraid of the stinking FLU - because, apparently, COVID alone isn’t getting it done.

Whatever it takes to beat down the masses into a more subservient, compliant, submissive puddle of malleable goo…right? I mean, we are just hustled along to the next existential threat - the media are our concierge, manning the fear podium.
You were supposed to be taking common-sense precautions against flu already. But especially now as hospital ICUs are pushed beyond capacity with Covid patients.
 

Spamature

President
Well, spam…in true “liberal” fashion, you’ve diagnosed the who, what, and why of OTHERS… sans any feedback from those you label. No need for my participation. Thanks for all the good work. :)
No.

I am telling you what happened, what you did, and asking why would you ?

Now you're turning tale and running from it ?

You rant and rave in support of something, then you hide from any examination of the results.
 

Bugsy McGurk

President
Hard to see what more could be done that hasn’t been already.
Yup. Here’s a summary of the many recounts, audits and lawsuits concerning Arizona….


They all showed that Biden won. Trump and his cultists just don’t care. They STILL claim that Trump won.

The only thing that will lead those people to trust the system again is never having a Republican lose an election. Because that is their touchstone for recognizing a working system.
a commission led forensic audit... but as time goes by it becomes more dubious that the evidence isn't being destroyed.

The OP asked whether a bi-partisan effort to communicate system integrity would be worthwhile. Why ANY of you continue to be wary and pump the brakes is puzzling. It’s like one side of the house screams “Putin!! Putin!! He wants us to be pulled apart!!” - while others simply want to take their ball and go home.

Whatever, I don’t care.

1) Irrelevant to the noted fear mongering of (now) even the common flu.

2) I am not/have not been sick. I do wear masks where stores require it. I am vaxxed and have been since last Spring. I don’t know who you think “You” is addressing in your response.
