“WHAT IS WRONG WITH PEOPLE?”

How much time did most of us spend researching the candidates this election? How much time do any of us have to devote specifically to knowing who these people really are. We are all targets for manipulation, and many of us are highly susceptible.

The effect of make-up on the televised debates between Nixon and JFK has been debated and reviewed many times, and is thought to have made a significant difference in how people perceived the candidates (Nixon didn't use make-up, and JFK did). The point is that in the ‘information age (or the disinformation age), everything is manipulable. We need to be ever aware of this, and know how to fight it.

We’ll never know how many races were decided by voter fraud. The media is so completely in control of so many minds and really, along with the public schools, shape the brains of Americans. Those who advocate liberty and common sense get squeezed between the Orwellian media and the deep state.

We live in the Matrix. I have learned to accept that it is an uphill battle with an extremely steep slope.

Not True at all. The Federal government has a lot of authority in Federal elections.


I’m sure you’re right. But the elections are still handled by state/local people. The Feds are only likely to get involved if there are obvious violations of Federal laws. But to get the Feds involved there is going to have to be credible evidence of fraud presented. Getting that evidence requires people being present when it occurs and willing to testify. And as I said earlier, places where the fraud undoubtedly occurs are dangerous for Republicans to even be in.

And any attempt to rectify the fraud will be played by the press and the dems as voter suppression/intimidation. Already the press are saying that criticism of the obviously incompetent Broward County election office is ‘racism’.

>How can you not want to blame the dems for filling out truckloads of fake ballots?

That’s going to happen regardless. If the Republicans would make the case of Voter ID, they would win.

Do you know how prevalent democrat fraud is?

Fair enough and far worse than the DemonRats winning is the basic fact that the electoral system is rife with fraud. So how does that need to be dealt with? The first step in solving any problem is to first identify and admit to the problem…. So how can the electoral fraud which seems to have happened on a massive scale be proved beyond a shadow of a doubt? Is there anything that the average person can do? I was thinking about this issue the other day and wondered if some basic data couldn’t at least be pulled together….. you know, stats can be powerful things and much of the necessary information is already in the public domain, no? Here’s an easy one…. Compile the vote tally’s on election day versus the final tallies for every single race. These are numbers that are readily available, right? Is it always the same party that seems to ‘close the gap’? Is there a relationship between how much the gap closes and how close it was on election day? How many provisional ballots are there on a race by race basis? Is there a relationship to the number of provisional ballots versus the closeness of the race? Very quickly, I think a study could be done and I would predict in advance that all the data would point to massive fraud by one particular party….

The time is coming soon when they will no longer be able to fill out phony ballots, throw away conservative votes or any other cowardly act of fraud.

Historically the President’s party takes huge hits at the mid-term. Historically, this election was no big whoop. The Rs held the Senate (thanks in no small part to the D’s handling of Justice Kavanaugh).

The Ds won’t be able to contain themselves and their outrageous constituency groups for long and will be back in the minority before too long.

“I’m still pissed off at the election results”

You are not alone. I was just telling my daughter the same thing this morning.

Congress has the authority to set rules in a federal election. They can do more than just go after vote fraud. For instance they could demand voter ID as Trump has suggested. And it is high time that we have some standardized rules that are designed to keep people from stealing Federal elections.

Why did Soros spend so much money to fill secretary of state positions with crooked democrats? Why have the democrats installed lawless political judges across the nation? The answer is so that democrats could cheat and steal elections. It is time to put a stop to that.

But I admit that we may already be too far gone now. Unless enough people rise up and demand secure elections then we will be nothing but a banana republic from here on out.

Thank you... Freepers are smart folks. Do you think that we could get a task force sorting out how a group could be formed to do something like this?

I hate to break it to you, but there was a red wave in the Senate. Moreover, posting unfiltered propaganda isn’t really doing anything other than spreading said propaganda.

I quite agree. Most “free” countries manage to conduct elections without the shenanigans that some districts seem to have. That said, nothing will be done on the Federal level for the next two years. The House democrats will never allow the necessary reforms.

And Republicans gained Senate seats.

Well on that I can agree. The only way that anything could possibly happen is if someone has some indisputable proof of massive vote fraud. It would have to be enough to totally enrage the population.

What really scares me is that with vote fraud being so refined now then the republicans may never control the House ever again. And the Senate, and the Presidency may be lost next time as well.

I just saw an ad against Georgia’s secretary of state candidate Brad Raffensperger(R) and the fact that he may owe back taxes.

If they were serious they would have had him raping women. After all, it is not whether you are guilty, but, the seriousness of the charge.

>> how can such a country long survive.....<<

It can’t, which is why I believe poor President Trump is merely a speed bump temporarily slowing down those whose goal is to transform the greatest country ever to have appeared on the planet into just another third-world hellhole.
