My GF’s son who is a young 25 yr old is pretty hardcore Lib. He has always had his mail sent to our house. Well now “it” has started. He received an official looking ballot to vote by mail in. This brings up a lot of questions. 1) if he votes mail in is there a system to know he’s already voted if he attempts to vote at the booths? Are the Dems counting on that being a problem? 2). We are right on the border of Bexar and Guadalupe county. So we get mail from both. But we are officially in Bexar County. The mail in vote we got for my GF’s son is from Guadalupe Election Administrator in Seguin. So the question..... would or is there a system that prevents him sending in two votes with one for Guadalupe and if he gets one for Bexar County? Because I know him and he would vote as many times with mail in votes that are sent to him. 3) What prevents them from sending my mail in vote to a known democrat “accidentally” on purpose so they can forge my name and send it in. I’m 100% certain they don’t have experts on hand to not only check to see if it’s forged but they wouldn’t even have my signature to compare it. Who’s to say I won’t send in my GFs son’s mail in with a vote for a Trump? I wouldn’t do that but the left has proven they have no integrity when it comes to trying to win an election. 4) who’s to say they won’t send out this to only Dems and not GOP voters? Neither my GF or I have received one yet. Have any of you? This whole mail in thing will be a Cluster F*%#. To me this won’t get approved and then the Dems will use this as their excuse why Trump won again. Watch for it. Because that’s coming.
I feel without cheating Trump wins in a landslide much like 1984. If he loses then this is much bigger than the Dems cheating. This would be Republican establishment involved as well. If that’s the case then our country is f*#%ed.
I 35 You bring up interesting and frightening questions I think we know the answers And it is not good for a legal election
Texas AG announces 134 felony voter fraud charges in connection with 2018 Dem primary. The allegations include election fraud and mail-in ballot fraud Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton announces 134 felony voter fraud charges in connection with 2018 Dem primary
Don't worry FBI Director Wray says no evidence of mass voter fraud, so relax, unless of course, the FBI is involved in trying to beat Trump again like 2016.
People put qualifiers like "mass" in there. It doesn't have to be "mass" to be decisive. Nobody thinks voter fraud could swing blowout states. It's close states where the fraud doesn't have to be massive.
I need to find that NYT article where they discuss the "well documented blue surge" in reference to Obama being behind Romney until a slew of votes were found (I say harvested) and Obama won Then Trump is winning and overnight ballots are found for Hillary No nah nope nothing suspicious about finding enough blue votes. Amazing they never find tons more red votes Anyone think they won't try it again?
I have represented defendants in voter fraud cases and it is easy to do. I share the concern of those who are worried, especially now when all sides expect the worst from their opponents. Paranoia runs deep but that doesn’t mean there is no cause for alarm.
Many years ago when my dad was getting ready to die he told me he wanted to be buried in Jim Wells County so he could stay politically active.
ii, Sorry about your dad, but please ask those buried around him if you can help mail in their ballot as well.
If George Parr was still alive, he would likely be a Republican. Except for our friend on this board, not many yellow dawg democrats left.
"Mailing it in" is a euphemism for not caring about something you are doing, giving minimal effort. Sounds like it applies 100% to mail in votes.
Knowingly voting twice is a felony. I'd say a decent deterrent. In states that don't do "vote by mail" - (Colo/Oregon?), you have to sign up to receive an absentee ballot. My daughter's arrived Friday. In Oklahoma she is notated in the system to be an absentee voter. If she procrastinates and doesn't complete it in time she can vote but she has to complete a provisional ballot where you write out the narrative that you got an absentee ballot but you're a procrastinator and you didn't vote. Once the dust settles and they're counting absentees and provisional ballots, they look you up in the system and verify that there is no absentee ballot and your vote is then counted. My mom was the election board head in our county for a few decades. Vote early, Vote often!
My wife has a rich uncle who is a terrific entrepreneur. He has three adult daughters scattered in three countries. All daughters are flaming liberals. Amazingly, they all absentee vote republican without even knowing it.
All votes from Philadelphia should be discarded - i doubt that city has had a single completely open and honest election in 100 years Memory sticks used to program Philly’s voting machines were stolen from elections warehouse
