As the ballot scandal in Oregon continues to garner more and more attention, local and national media outlets are taking notice. And they’re rushing to the aid of the state officials while dismissing and belittling the thousands of disenfranchised voters who were denied their right to vote in the primary for they party.
Our original article was flagged by Facebook and Twitter as “misinformation” even though we sourced dozens of people making these initial claims. Oregon officials worked with Facebook and Twitter to scrub the story, and now Politifact has chimed in as well, also taking everything the state officials word as undisputed truth — without interviewing a single victim of this ballot scam.
Relying largely on the “debunked” DMV Motor Voter scapegoat, writer Tom Kertscher reports:
A headline on an article on The Gateway Pundit, a conservative website says:
“Huge Scandal: Oregon Changes Hundreds Of Republican Ballots To “Non Partisan” Denying GOP Voters the Right To Participate In Primary.”
There’s no evidence yet to back up the headline.
No evidence? Except we’ve included in our articles dozens of screen captures of people making these claims. Apparently Kertscher didn’t bother to actually read the articles he is “fact checking.”
He goes on to explain how the ballots are supposed to work in Oregon:

I see the second sentence uses an ebonics expression.

At least my FB post didn't get deleted, but I discovered a climate change article I wrote last September did for a single URL reference they later deemed "a violation of community standards."
It would not surprise me if she also "fact-checked" for twit Jack Dorsey.
Two options:
(1) regulate Twitter as a public utility; and/or
(2) develop some sort of a substitute.
Both will take time and effort, but you have to start domewhere.
Turn the USPS into a social media platform.
The Democrats running Oregon are criminals. They make sure their party wins. They step and blow tax money like it’s and endless money tree. They are trying to keep people from working by giving a shit load of money and perks to those who are on welfare. There is no residency requirement. Now they are paying people who got laid off more money than they made working. They are running a dictatorship here and people are getting sick and tired of it. The Republican Party has abandoned hard working Oregonians. They don’t care. The ballot counting is bullshit and criminal.
At first I wasn’t sure, but “they party?”
That’s gotta be it.
Ping
Simply outrageous.
As Twitter is now a Chinese entity, they can’t be trusted even for advice on dealing with tomato hornworms
So she is a WHITE POWER advocate!!!
Oregon ping
If Donald Trump simply left Twitter and put out messages exclusively on Gab, Minds, or Parlor, and then forced anyone who wanted access to his messaging to get one of these 1A-promoting social media sources, that would go a YUUUGE way to bucking the social media Ministry of Troof.

How about Oregonians re-posting this on Twitter. They are censoring and not letting the truth come out.
If the shoe fits, right?
I discovered the other day that my BIL and nephew were victims of the Oregon ballot scam.
Just like the other stories, they received a notice of change of party to unaffiliated, went to the state website to change registration back to Republican, and had it changed back to unaffiliated when they checked later that day.
I asked my WW II veteran uncle why he settled in Oregon after the war. He said that it was a very conservative state back then. He also said that if he had a clue how it would turn out in his golden years, he would run like hell.
