So, the GOP won big last night, across the board. Reason? They couldn't stop the count at 3 a.m. and pump in the mail in ballots. Expect similar results in the mid term elections. It's hard to fix 435 House races and 33 Senate races, though they might pick off a couple close races with mail in ballots. That's what gave us Simena in AZ and that stupid Saturday Night Live comedian in MN a few years ago.
This is not to say that election fraud isn't a problem, and this is not to say "vote harder" or whatever straw man you want.
This post is to say, that when Trump wins in 2024 without COVID as cover to pump in the mail in ballots at 3am after kicking out the election observers, then, and only then, will we really be in danger of a 2nd civil war over an election.
Further, if I was Trump, I'd be buying some insurance. I'd be working with rural County Clerks in blue states to do the same thing that the inner city County Clerks do, which is pump in the fake ballots.
I would simply say that to accept mass mail in ballots, they must be recorded first, by the morning of in-person voting, no later. They’ve had a month already.
This is fair.
Then the in-person votes could start to be counted and reported as usual.
No media is allowed to “call” a race or “declare” a winner, or otherwise interfere with the election process.
This is all fair and just freaking common sense. Something we seem to have so little of these days.
Meh, let's forbid mail in voting completely. Europe doesn't allow it for a reason.
That would my first choice. I was always taught it was an honor and a duty. If you didn’t vote, don’t complain.
You have every right to NOT vote and still expect your country to be competently run in a non-tyrannical manner.
