I won’t be surprised if they fumble the bag again listening to lies and cruelty.

    There's no need for electoral fraud. For the past half century the turnout at the polls for mid-term elections has been around 40%EV. (For presidential elections it's around 60%EV.) All they have to do to win over the astonishing sloth and apathy of the American voter base is rally an extra 2-3% to go to the polls. And they have the built-in tools to do that given that what passes for the "left" in the USA is determined to stay the course on their "Operation: Foot Bullet" plan.

    Imagine how difficult an 80 or 85% turnout would have been to defraud or steal an election from.

    Can’t tell them this though, ‘you don’t understand’ is the answer you get. Then a litany of ‘reasons’
