If Republicans are really looking for election fraud, they might want to check on their own party members.

In [candidate for MA lieutenant governor] Martin’s case, signature gatherer Joe Bronske allegedly used a list of registered Republican voters to forge hundreds of signatures.

In [candidate for MA AG] Walsh’s case, a handwriting expert determined that many of the signatures from certain towns were “more likely than not written by the same person,” according to the commission’s ruling.

Thousands of miles away in Florida, five people, including three elected officials, have been charged in connection with a scheme to allegedly create and distribute a fake voter guide.

    They say “every accusation is a confession,” but I think it runs a bit deeper than that.

    They’ve been propagandized into believing the Democrats did the same and worse. So if they feel they’ve been kicked in the balls against the rules during a boxing match, they feel it’s time to start ball-kicking even harder because it’s time to fight dirty.

    It’s weird how the cons claim they are the majority, most Americans support their great and common sense platform, etc., etc.

    And yet. They have zero interest in having fair elections.

          In addition, they’d point at surveys that showed how people identify themselves (conservative, very conservative, moderate, liberal, very liberal). This is after decades of them smearing the term “liberal”, mind you. Not to mention decades of the “liberal media” pushing the notion of being a “moderate” as some kind of unqualified good.

          What they don’t want to talk about is polls that probe people on their position on policies.

          Looks like I misread it because I remember a completely different sentiment from the comment I replied to.

          Ah well, the folly of multi-tasking.

    No, but you see, it’s okay when THEY do it, because it’s only to offset what those filthy LIBRULS are doing.

    They have convinced themselves that the president is right, that the Dems cheat, so they feel it’s okay that they do it.

      They have for decades been at the forefront of cheating. Which party broke into their competitors offices to so on them? Who used the supreme court to stop the count in Florida, where after the fact it was found out they would have (narrowly) lost?

      They know they cheat at every opportunity, so they need to accuse their opponents of the same.

      I think we already know that that’s the case. It’s already been confirmed by an investigation that trump quashed in his first term…
