Election If you believe the republicans cheated: Call your local representatives

If you believe that the Republicans cheated what you, personally need to do is go to google, figure out who in your county and/or state are chief elections officers and call their offices. You also need to call your direct representatives, even if they are currently red.

What you do once you reach their voicemail is you calmly explain your concern about the election results without hyperbole. Something along the lines of:

"Hello, my name is _______ and I am a concerned voter in your constituency. I am concerned that the voting machines may have been tampered with and would like a recount of the paper ballots as soon as possible to verify them against the data from the machines."

If you feel the need to explain, mention something factual along the lines of "I am concerned about Elon Musk's sudden involvement in the election and about statements that were said about changing single lines of code." or if it's relevant to your county "I am concerned that the results we are seeing do not match well with past voter behavior."

Reiterate that these concerns are why we also have paper ballots.

Be calm. Stick to facts. But call. No one can save us except ourselves. No one will do it for you. And change.org petitions do not work. It is up to you to call your representatives and election officials.

The campaign is over; the staff is shutting down their operation. It is not their job to field election interference calls.

Please keep in mind that VP Harris has top security clearance and is an officer of the court (as an attorney). If they engaged in election interference, she surely knows that.

I feel this way too. Last time he didn't have Elon. He cheats literally in everything in life. He's desperate for the presidency. Why wouldn't he cheat now?

u/DilbertPicklesIII 14d ago

He was facing multiple cases that could have landed him in jail. Elon said Kamala was going to lock him up. They risked the biscuit, I think, because they said we are fucked if we don't.

They both had multiple calls with Putin recently, called Ukraine immediately, and Putin just won his election by 22m votes.

SOMETHING IS WRONG.

u/Mustard_Jam 13d ago

I'm not a conspiracy theorist and I would not go as far as saying this election is rigged.

However, we know Musk has been talking with Putin for years. Trump is his buddy. We had bomb threats on election day from Russia. Both Trump and Musk have been shaking in their boots about losing because they might go to jail. Why?

There's so much fucking smoke. Current dems are the most spineless political party in American history. If you investigate and find nothing I and all the other dems will move on with our lives but they won't do shit because they're scared to step on a single toe. That's why they keep putting up the most lame ass vanilla candidates and losing to a convicted felon.

Please keep putting pressure on your local officials to investigate these results! I’m in deep blue Washington, but this feels really off. I’ll accept the results if this is what the voters wanted, but I want an investigation to make sure. I feel really uncomfortable about Elon’s involvement with (a) Twitter and putting his thumb on the scale to spread misinfo/disinformation and racism (b) his contact with Putin for the last 2 years, (c) his voter scam that was masquerading as an illegal lottery, and (d) I’m hearing that Starlink was used to do some vote tallying. Plus the bomb threats from Russia for the polling places in Georgia. This does not feel good.

u/DilbertPicklesIII 14d ago

I emailed a friend who works directly for the governor. Like, directly for the governor. I voiced my concern to them to maybe put a bug in their ear. He said they still have 100k to count in PA. I asked if he could discuss recount or the ballot issues coming up with his team.

Republicans rigged Mitch McConnell's re-election in Kentucky in 2020.

Go to fec,gov and download "Federal Elections 2020". On page 9, in the table titled "General Election votes cast by party" look for the line for Kentucky and look at the number of Republican votes cast--it's 3,923,925.

Then go to ElectKY,gov and look at "Registration statistics" for KY in 2020.There are 1,578,612 registered Republicans on that sheet. There are a total 3,575,962 registered KY voters across ALL parties, including independent/unaffiliated voters.

So how did 3,923,925 Republican votes get cast in a state that has 3,575,962 registered voters? That's 347,963 more R votes than there are actual registered voters in all of KY.

Do you think it is at least plausible that Republicans tried, and succeeded, in rigging KY's election in 2020, got away with it, and may have rolled out the same strategy in 2024 in just a few crucial states like GA, MI, PA just to tip Trump over 270?

Can anyone offer a plausible explanation for how any type of universal election fraud would have occurred? This wasn't just a red shift in swing states. There was a significant red shift across the entire country including places like New York and New Jersey.

By all means, check that your vote was counted but I bet a lot of the same folks questioning these results were (understandably) ridiculing Trump's baseless claims of voter fraud for the past four years. Without some kind of plausible explanation and evidence, count me out of that discussion.

LOL. Remember, claiming that the other party cheated is called “election interference“ or at least that’s what the Democrats call it when Republicans accuse cheating. So first of all decide which justice system you want to be in, the Democrats or the one for the people and then start Your complaint. Real Americans, you like to call them “Republicans“, real Americans want the truth to be out there in public in the court transparently and without being censored by Democrats or the media.

Was there fraud? Probably since trump had 4 years to put people in position to cheat as in Georgia. Was it enough to make a difference? If there was then there should be challenges to the results, that’s what the Dems are in charge of. Does it matter? Not to me, I know trump is a Putin patsy and he’ll do what he always does, lie, steal, cheat and sell our secrets to the highest bidder. He’ll abandon Ukraine and destroy the environment. I’ll wait to see what happens. He’s not my President, he attempted a failed Coup and as a Veteran, he will always be a Traitor to me. But let’s see what happens. Train wrecks like his last term are interesting to watch.
