Warning

Sam I posted facts with actual figures and you post a piece from the brennan center?

You posted something from the Heritage Foundation and the Washington Examiner and call someone out for responding with something biased?

You posted that we’re the only western democracy to require IDs and that the USPS takes weeks to make it to its destination. You’re not exactly using facts to make your points, just kind of making stuff up.

Also, did anyone notice that the WE article was using Breitbart as a source for the number of ballots missing. Not an actual data collection or notes from the post office or anything of substance.

Yes, I spent a few minutes last night trying to dig into more on that but everything seemed to be from Breitbart.

I always try to check additional sources when I see a big headline like that from a biased source (either side). Often times you find there is more to the story.

They also don’t define what missing means. It could just mean unused. So they went and voted in person.

Yeah, I couldn’t figure it out. I’m guessing they didn’t provide context for a reason.

Thanks for the articles. Some I can’t read as they require a subscription(WSJ ). The WSJ article was
just an opinion piece.

The first one says few hundred ballots sent to folks with out dated postal addresses. “Guilty party” - most probably lackadaisical voters. Kinda like the people that fail to register in time. No evidence there was any fraud committed.

Then it talks it about bundled ballots being found
in mailboxes. Not clear what this means precisely. Somebody forged a bunch of ballots and tied them up in bundles together ? Yeah, that sounds like a
real way I’d commit a crime. Or were the ballots (
real or fake ones) intentional planted to be found to
cast doubt ? Not enough info in a article.

And of course postal ballots have to have a date stamp to be counted. If you don’t get your ballot back in the mail 10 days prior, shame on you. If you
don’t receive your ballot prior, you probably need to
plan on voting 1700s style.

Anyway, still don’t see evidence of any fraud in this
article. Accusations and allegations for sure. Guess some folks just don’t like the idea of having a verifiable paper trail for auditing.

That is a nice try Randy. Were these people convicted of voter fraud or not? Did I make this up? No it is recorded and these are the actual records of it. Are you going to overturn their voter fraud convictions?

I wasn’t even getting into any of that.

Just saying calling someone out for biased sources after posting biased sources doesn’t make a lot of sense.

You are absolutely correct, except that very few people can vote online. A paper ballot is a hell a lot safer from tampering than a voting machine with a modem. Just think about it.
