Election Chatter Thread...

so then explaining their actions is defending their party, but Trumps “I was cheated!!1!” rants are legit concerns that should be investigated? lol

You do realize that Trump isn't the only one yelling fraud, right? If it were just him, I would not be having this conversation. Hell, there at least a dozen senators and over 100 representors ready to vote to block certification. Shit is dirty. We have to fix this.

Well, when someone settles out of court for all the legit allegations you tend to not be convicted of things.

There were only one of those that he settled on, and btw, even when someone settles out of court doesn't make them automatically guilty.

They are simply following his lead because their base districts/states are Trump die hards and they are looking after their own self interest. They will accomplish nothing tomorrow other than some grandstanding.

It’s was reported that 2 voting precincts lost power of some sort so they extended voting by 30 minutes. Predominantly democratic areas so I look forward to the conspiracy theory tweets if this is close.

Yep. I've raised this issue a couple of times in the past. Every year since I moved to Georgia technical issues "mysteriously" occur at polling stations that are located in areas that lean heavily towards democrats. You name it....missing power cords for voting machines, critical equipment that's locked away and inaccessible to poll workers, equipment that's flat out inoperable, etc.

But the equipment and the process in GOP areas tends to always work smoothly. I wonder why.

The ol' slight of hand misdirection trick?

I'd like for ONE DAMN TIME for someone to explain to me why Trump is a "crook".

And don't give me bullshit about Russia or any of that other bullshit that has been proven false.

Do your own homework! Look up the man's history BEFORE he became President. And he's been proven as a crook while in office with the previous Ukraine call when the Republican Senate turned a blind eye. That 'lesson' sure worked out well didn't it?

He's always been a crook, he's just been able to get away with it to this point. It's not a secret whatsoever.

You mistakenly think that the world needs to 'show you' things for them to be true. That's not the case.

You'll parrot shit from twitter as facts while ignoring the real facts that none of these claims are supported in any courts by evidence.

Like this latest disgrace of a phone call where the guy blatantly attempts to cheat the election. But I'm sure you turn a blind eye to that too?

THAT IS THE TRUTH.

He lies and they swear to it. Out of fear of Trump and his cult turning on them next.

It's amazing to me that just because these people say something, you assume there must be truth to it.

Loeffler went from 88k up at 91% of the vote to 34k down at 97% of the vote. Nothing fishy here.

 

[Smitty]

Trumps erratic behavior has cost the Republicans both seats in Georgia. That’s not great news at all.

 

[Smitty]

I would never presume that there is never voter fraud, but the burden of proof is on the accuser. Instead all we ever get are wild accusations with no substance.

There was more proof brought on this board than in the courts, which is sad.

We were never going to win no matter what, they have normalized finding enough votes in the trunk of a car a la Al Franken and the msm will call anyone who challenges it a conspiracy theory cook

Just wait until they tale Federal control of elections in Texas and Florida

 

[jsmith6919]

Ok this is fucking ridiculous, Texas and Florida have no problem staying up and counting elections....

Good Lord, man. I know you hate Trump but he isn't the cause of every evil. Both those shitty candidates got a far bigger percentage than they did in the primary. You even said yourself how fishy it was.

Now if they're successful in changing the game so they can't lose again, we're going to see how this wasn't just another "oh well, we'll get 'em next time" election.

Well the good news is the Dems are going to be out of excuses.

lol no, it’s not fishy. When Dems have historically always pulled 80% of votes from the largest county in the state and that county dumps 80k votes in a bunch, there’s going to be movement in a poll.

if all of this just came out of left field, I’d get it. But GA Dems mobilized like never before this year because of Trump and his 2 GA Senate lackies and the Republicans paid for it. Also doesn’t help that it looks like some Republican counties didn’t turn out as high as they did in the Pres election. That’s on them.

I don’t hate Trump, I just voted for him like 2 months ago...?

 

[Smitty]

Well the good news is the Dems are going to be out of excuses.

The good news is maybe we will get bankruptcy reform and student loan discharge which will be lucrative for me personally.

 

[1bigfan13]

Don't mind me. I'm just here for the GA senate election conspiracy theories.

This is the thing that stood out to me. Even with all the stuff hanging over Loeffler & Perdue's heads they still came very close to winning.

I know there was nothing Republicans could do about who was running, but if there were "clean" candidates in place rather than those two shady SOBs, GOP would have won comfortably, IMO.
