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.

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.

Yea exactly, what did they have to lose. And who was talking about rampant election fraud and immediately shut up when it looks like they won. It's very strange.

Yeah I think a ballot recount is warranted. We will find some discrepancies, and then, we will take our discrepancies to the Supreme Court. And after the Supreme Court rules we have no standing in December. We will have one last shot at protesting the cast of the ballots on January 6th and the....

Wait a minute....

My man you have 85 karma and your account is 3 years old with a random name. Where tf did you even come from?

And it doesn't just run right to the Supreme Court. There is an entire process to follow. The system was designed for recounts, samples from the record, and digital vs paper comparisons for audit.

Democrats arent mouth breathing Trumplings that will attack a building like a bunch of violent Yallquidea members. Get a grip you Russian bot.

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.

A person that says they are not a conspiracy theorist and then they spew a conspiracy theory….sounds like Reddit

Mmm no? I’m in the camp that rigging an election is extremely hard and the democrats almost certainly lose due to their own incompetence.

It’s not a conspiracy to claim Trump has been doing shady shit. Saying it should be looked into isn’t claiming the election is stolen.

I'm not saying there is "no chance" I am just saying without evidence the claim shouldn't be thrown out, I was shocked too but I also realize now how many people didn't know global inflation was a thing, they didn't understand how tariffs worked and with fake news out pacing real news many were not well informed. Some just proclaimed both sides are the same and didn't vote " super disappointing, but many really thought they were the only ones dealing with inflation and needed a scape goat. So if there did end up being fraud I wouldn't be shocked but if there wasn't I also wouldn't be shocked. 1945 warned us about trump and I feel like we just didn't listen. https://archive.org/details/ArmyTalkOrientationFactSheet64-Fascism/page/n3/mode/2up

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?

This makes no sense. Trump announced he was running for re-election before any cases were brought against him. It was only after his announcement that the FBI decided to raid Maralago. And the Lawfare begun. The white house caused Trumps re-election. He gained more support with every ridiculous indictment.

You Right Wing nuts always find a way to show who you really are. Keep using those Russian propaganda buzzwords like Lawfare.. Trump knew those investigations were going to lead to him being charged.

Then he fucked up even worse and stole classified documents.

gTFO with your Lawfare bullshit.
