    Yeah, the algorithm that translates the number of yard signs and the size of the boat parade into number of votes is faulty at best.

    Maybe people in Orange County are ashamed to vote Democrat? I know quite a few Trump voters from 2016 that were a bit embarrassed to admit it.

    No. We are massochists that way. We continue to hope that we can educate every American and end this growing reign of ignorance, despite knowing that we will ultimately fail.

    I am not sure I know of any situation where education is a bad thing - see the thread on college. It is just a shame that so many people are opposed to understanding. Oh well.

    Yeah, I was not excited about Biden. But I genuinely liked Obama and still never had shirts and hats and messages on my house or car about it. People seem to conflate levels of fandom/enthusiasm for support generally.

    Yep. Could be. Not ashamed but people who just don’t do the whole political rah-rah thing. I have never had a yard sign, political banner or political flag and the only bumper sticker I have is a small Birds Aren’t Real sticker. And yet I don’t ever not vote in any kind of election. Silent majority?

    There is no way in hell this is accurate, particularly in South Florida. No. Way.

    It is exactly the opposite. Republican ads blanket the airways, only to be interrupted on a very short, irregular basis, by an adverse ad.

    Yeah there's almost as many Republican ads as Personal Injury Attorney ads.

    Much of it Republicans, for sure. What party was putting forth the ghost candidates?

    Actually, yes, it was. Which is why the publisher had to call the book back and eliminate every specific mention of an organization, trying to avoid a suit from those organizations.

    Here's what changed in Dinesh D'Souza's '2,000 Mules' book after it was recalled

    I believe they said it was in 6 or 7 states and FL was not one of them.

    Yeah, the Yankees have the larger fanbase. Not sure how they lost to the Astros.

    Ummmmmm.

    Fact Check-Does ‘2000 Mules’ provide evidence of voter fraud in the 2020 U.S. presidential election?

    "Ultimately, ‘2000 Mules’ speculates that the so-called ballot-traffickers were dropping off fraudulent ballots – but the film does not prove this. The ‘faked’ ballots were never opened and inspected, nor were the suspected “mules” on surveillance questioned, aside from one anonymous “informant” who says she never saw inside the supposed fraudulent ballots."

    "In another, a woman wearing a face mask and gloves is seen posting a ballot before turning to place her gloves in a nearby bin. It is claimed in the documentary that she is a “mule” because she was wearing gloves (to hide her fingerprints) and did not look at the bin, so must have had prior knowledge of it being there. The documentary makers did not appear to consider the possibility that the woman was wearing gloves, along with her face mask, as a personal protective measure against COVID-19. The unidentified woman was also said to have visited “dozens and dozens” of drop boxes; however, no other clips of her, nor any further evidence, were shown."(emphasis added")

    "In a Fox News interview, Engelbrecht claimed the average number of visits by a "mule" to a drop box was 38 (here). Yet none of the surveillance videos showed the same person more than once." (emphasis added)


    VERDICT

    The documentary “2000 Mules” does not provide any concrete, verifiable evidence of widespread voter fraud in the 2020 election. Technology and election integrity experts consulted by Reuters also did not find the geolocation, surveillance or any other information presented showed plausible evidence of fraud.
