We would've never known in most cases, and in 2018 something similar did happen where there was a sweep of republican senate and house
and suddenly democrats took back some of the house.
democrats are so insanely skilled at stealing elections where they can win presidential elections but cant win ANY senate seats for more than 5 election cycles and lose several house seats (editor's note: dems lost incumbent house seats this time around)
In the past, they likely have. And in this case, they did the same thing they said publicly would happen. A "red mirage" except
because the timeframe for stuffing ballots post-election was cut down significantly, they couldn't hide it in a slow slope.
I'll admit, the sudden jump was stupid obvious. but that doesn't change that it happened.
i still don't buy it. they've had the last 2 years to figure out how to rig this one covertly. what you're implying is that they are so good at rigging elections that they've been doing it for multiple election cycles at the bare minimum (using covert methods) and good enough to keep it secret this entire time. yet, they're not smart enough to know that people will sniff out 200k ballots or whatever the number was being added at once. these two concepts you're telling me cannot happen at the same time. honestly, i don't have a good theory on what happened either but i'm willing to bet it isn't some grand scheme that Annoying Orange is dreaming up
This reason contradicts your previous reason. And theres no reason to say that this hasn't happened for decades.
It's been an open secret for years that politics is dirty, and this level of cheating is commonplace. But they definitely used to be better at it.
But the older generation never got with the times. and the newer generation sucks at this kind of cheating.
if Michigan or Wisconsin had jumped like it had last night, in 1992, could anyone have possibly noticed as fast as they did now?
The internet has changed how people can view elections, and that unveils these once powerful tactics.
They weren't obvious in a pre-internet era, but now most people use the internet, and these tactics are obvious and everyone is watching this election.
i knew i represented this point a little bit poorly so let me clarify what i actually mean: there's tons of journalists at big institutions that are infatuated with looking for the next watergate. they are looking for the next big story that will captivate the nation. this is how they make money. this is also why they keep naming everything with the suffix being gate. russiagate this, roostergate that (there's truly too many to remember or enumerate but i trust that everyone knows this is what they do). a journalist at any institution would absolutely murder for a story about how the democrats are defrauding the entire nation by rigging elections. if there was any substantial proof that they were doing it on any level, there would be the big story and then thousands of other reports from all other outlets. problem is that no story like this has come out that hasn't been easily explained (for example: reporter says mail-in voting implies fraud, but simple statistics shows that voter fraud is basically non-zero compared to the amount of people who legitimately vote using mail-in voting).
i guess the point i'm trying to make is if the democrats were rigging this using the governmental powers, we would've known by now? maybe they would be playing a little more aggressive than they actually are, and that's when we would know they are rigging the elections? honestly idk what i'm trying to say and i'm willing to concede on this point bc i phrased it so poorly
There have been several people caught on cameras doing various different suspect or even outright criminal acts of fraud. But usually, like the ones from Veritas,
I show them, I post them. Then people go and search "[Name of the Video or Controversy] DEBUNKED" and find their favorite square glasses tv talkshow-type-tuber
and use that as evidence. Dismissing the whole thing before looking into it internally.
that's because veritas has a history of misrepresenting everything that they report on. every single time they come out with something new it turns out they didn't have the full story here, tried to bribe someone there, etc. i have no clue how you so blindly trust them at this point. the reason why people go search the [Name of the Video or Controversy] DEBUNKED" thing is because they know veritas is fishy, and half the time their initial doubts are proven correct
