@TheParamedicGamer I'm watching Crowder and he's receiving tweets from individuals who are reporting being handed sharpies and instructions on how to fill out ballots with the sharpies in other states. Giving specific locations too
@DeathRhodes666 as long as they aren't counting votes from people who got their ballots in after the 3rd (unless they were still in line when polls closed) then I'm okay with things. If the absentee ballot is postmarked the 3rd, it should still be counted
I have no idea about the rejection rules in those states, it could very well be state-specific rules.
@DeathRhodes666 interesting
The state you would want to watch for that the most is likely Michigan.
@Maw i think most are
Yeah idk what the other state-specific rules are regarding sharpies but it is suspect at the least.
Because that's honestly what I think this election hangs on.
To me it is suspect
the vertical lines in some of the charts that @RobertGrulerEsq shared this morning is something that needs to be looked at
Those jumps in votes you mean?
yeah
I agree. Those are very suspect and should be major red flags for vote integrity.
should be a big red flag whether you are Right, Left or anything else
Mmhmm
But let's be real, if it isn't affecting your candidate, it doesn't matter.
At least that seems to be the status quo
I'd like to think most people have enough integrity to be able to tell when something isn't okay regardless of political affiliation, but I understand the partisan argument of course.
We're talking primarily citizens and not politicians though.
Of which I expect are far more open-minded.
I would like to agree to all the above, but the past 4-5 years, through my observations, haven't provided enough evidence to convince me.
The polarization in politics has kicked into high gear and the effects are now showing up.
You have to remember, there has been an assault on the incumbent (if it was fair or not is debateable) for the last 4 years by most sources of news for the majority of Americans. This is kind of expected to be frank.
Agreed
This was a vote (again) for who people hate the least.
Despite being in politics for 47 years, Biden doesn't have a huge negative stigma attached to him.
True. He doesn't have any notable policies either except for the 1994 crime bill and maybe some others I'm not yet aware of. But I didn't find out about that until the past few months myself.
Biden to most Americans is just some old politician that hasn't (quite frankly) done anything in half a century in politics.
But they see the big orange man who has been demonized on the news as their opponent.
I don't think they really are that partisan that they wouldn't be open to investigating discrepancies.
I hope they aren't that partisan to ignore very concerning signs that the voting and vote counting process has issues.
The biggest issues to me personally would be that media is very biased toward one side, and that's how Americans formulate their opinions on politics and policy. This obviously includes social media bias.
When information is curated, your democracy is dying.
Wholeheartedly agree on that. Media is the single biggest propaganda/wielder of power over the people's opinions and thought processes.
And like you said; when your information is curated, your democracy is dying.
And I feel like the reasons for that stem from enterprises/businesses being way too involved in politics.
I'm (surprise) anti-establishment.
These big conglomerate businesses buy up dying news agencies from a bygone era and then end up curating what journalists report on, and they largely base that on their political affiliation/candidates of choice.
Who in turn play a game of favors to the businesses themselves.
It's a really bad situation to be in.
