You can think what you want, it doesn't matter. If a states law allows for a vote to be counted as long as it was made and dropped into the mailbox prior to the election day deadline, I as a citizen would expect my vote to be counted. That's democracy 101.

Especially when trumps buddy at the USPS is losing ballots by the hundreds of thousands. Or does that not count as a legitimate complaint because it benefits trump?
- joel878

yes. voter suppression.

trump stealing mailboxes again? guess all those suppressed votes is what is driving the record turnout.

Do you even see how ass-backwards that is?

$11B spent on campaigns this election cycle. That makes America the most democratic country in the world. They love their democracy so much. Nobody else buys that much democracy.

Step 1 - Give governments massive amounts of power

Step 2 - Wonder why people bid large amounts of money for that power

Republicans always go on about mythical voter fraud that never materializes. Trump was so pissed that Hilary outvoted him he set up a commission to find proof of all those fraudulent votes. They found zip. Every study has shown negligible voter fraud election after election. It serves to support efforts to suppress the vote because we sure don’t want “them” voting.

vote harvesting is a real thing that goes on; which for some stupid reason is legal in many states.

no doubt both parties do it. dems seems much better at it.

but sure. everything is on the up and up. the candidate that next to nobody was voting for got the most # of votes ever.

This despite not stealing votes away from Trump. And far less republican votes going to the Libertarian candidate.

Imagine how much healthcare could have been provided with that money.

US elections need to have a limit on how much money can be spent or gathered for campaigns. Keep them all on even ground.

Just wanna point out that votes are still being counted in lots of places like Cali and New York even though they've been called, and there's been a higher turnout for blue in some states that are red

Take your poor lobby back to the foodbank you communist

yes. voter suppression.

No, its the past 4 years of having a greedy, corrupt, racist, sexist sack of sh!t wannabe dictator as president who only cares about himself is what is driving the record turnout.

As yes, he repubes have tried their past to suppress votes and may have, its just that there's about half a country that are sick of it.
Maybe thats why the votes are so close....so many votes have been suppressed.
Its not one or the other....both can occur.

Like Ghosts - the second coming.

Lol. The sequel should be very different.

Weird eh.
Maybe only politicians should only run for president...not rich nobody's.

Odd that the Blues get urban votes & the Reds the rural.

1) Bible belt.
2) Disenfranchised white people
3) Crazy people need to live in remote areas or someone will report their "militia ranch" to the cops

As long as they are post-marked by election day, as agreed to by the rules of the state, there is no problem.

Otherwise, you run the risk of purposeful slow-downs in urban areas. Know what I mean?

But let's not just focus on this one thing.

The entire US electoral system is an absolute poopshow - for which both parties should be absolutely ashamed.

In a normal functioning democracy, you have a non-partisan body that governs elections - they set standards, ensure that everything is done the same, and enforce it.

The idea that a governing party controls how an election is run would be funny if it wasn't so god-damned franking shameful.

the best part of this is, that there are US-citizens (professionals) that go abroad to oversee elections in other countries.
In fact, the UN "DPPA" (Department of Political and Peacebuilding Affairs) -- the division that provides electoral assistance amongst other services -- is headed by a US citizen.
the irony...

Perspective is everything and the only thing you've proven efficient at is bending things to fit your ridiculous narrative. Everything is a conspiracy unless the conspiracy goes against your narrative. You're a hopeless trumpite shill. Just (frank) off over to QAnon, you'll get plenty of sympathy there that you can't find here.

Lol. The sequel should be very different.

Harvesting is a thing but it's a red herring in terms of having any impact.

Voter turnout is the new concern? Voter turnout is up across the board because this was an important election and because the call to vote has never been louder (even from the GOP supporters).

Looking at where it's up the most - Michigan, Texas, Florida, and Wisconsin. Looks to me like it helped both sides. Or I guess those surprising numbers in Miami Dade that helped Trump don't create suspicion? ....only the big number of votes in Wisconsin and Michigan?
