What is going to happen in this mid-term election?

There's been a certain amount of fixation on voter fraud for, what, about 15 years now? Bush's firing of the US attorneys was over the attorneys inability to find voter fraud that some top Republicans were sure was there.
Needless to say, despite all the claims and investigations since then, they've yet to find anything substantial.
But Trump pushed that to a whole new level, simply by whining about it. Now it's everywhere on the right.
One on hand, you'd say it's really quite amazing the power he has had over them.
But on the other, maybe they were just so completely ready for that kind of whining themselves.

 

Interesting you only focus on Reps disputing elections. I guess Dems never do that...

 

Of course they do. But Not nearly as much.

 

Why? Because libbie biased MSM says so. What a joke.

 

Democrats have complained about the anachronistic Electoral College which twice in 16 years resulted in the election of a presidential candidate who received fewer votes than his opponent. They have also complained about Russian interference in the 2016 election which was real and may or may not have actually affected the final results but for a very small number of outliers Democrats have never refused to accept the results of an election. In contrast election denial has become a core belief in the current Trump dominated Republican Party with a majority of Republican candidates as well a belief in the majority of self-identified Republican voters supporting the absurd narrative that Trump really won but for massive election fraud.
The following quote from Joseph Stalin bears a strong similarity to the platforms of a number of Republican candidates running this year.
"I consider it completely unimportant who in the party will vote, or how; but what is extraordinarily important is this—who will count the votes, and how."
They have directly or implicitly suggested that they will be counting the votes in 2020 in a manner favorable to Republican candidates and most notably Trump who will almost certainly be running again for the presidency.

 

Very interesting how you speak so freely as the Democratic Party.

 

I don't claim to speak on behalf of the Democratic Party. It's a matter of public record that only a very small number of Democrats voted against certifying the 2000 and 2016 elections while the overwhelming majority of Republicans in the House voted against certifying the 2020 election as did a significant number of Republican senators albeit not a majority. Over half the Republicans running in the 2022 midterms support the narrative of election denial, I don't recall any Democratic candidates running in 2018 who supported the narrative of election denial. And let's not forget that in 2000 Al Gore conceded as soon as the Supreme Court indicated that it would in effect accept the results of the Florida vote count and that in 2016 Hillary Clinton conceded within hours of the media calling the election for Trump. Whether you're willing to admit it or not, election denial has become a core plank in the Republican platform and a number of Republican candidates for governor, secretary of state or attorney general have implied that they will put in the fix for 2020.

 

Funny how you quick deny and go right back into talking points mode.

 

Sometimes "talking points" and facts are synonymous.

Amazing that in 4 minutes (maximum), you were able to pull 5 different articles and link them all here for us, nice and neat. Hmmm.

 

Have to admit, that’s is very weird. Full time job on these boards for some.

 

Borrowing a line from an old GEICO commercial it's so easy to do research using Google even a caveman can do it.

 

Even if you had absolutely nothing else going on in your life, that is an unnatural response time.

 

I’ve noticed it with a few posters. Seems pretty obvious what’s going on.

 

Don't worry, come Wednesday that poster will be taking a 30 day vacation if the Senate goes Rep.

 

I don’t know about that. I suspect there’s zero emotion involved. The talking points will be typed up and disseminated.

 

No, that poster made a bet with 95.

 

Will be interesting to see if it’s upheld. It may just be a matter of adjusting the programming a bit and then the instant return after 30 days (to the minute) have elapsed.

 

It's funny that they actually disagree with this. A majority of Repubs running for US House seats are election deniers. They just ignore the facts that are inconvenient to them.

 

Not true and you should know better.
