American Election

All voting is open to abuse. All you need to know is a name and address and you can steal someone else’s vote. No ID checks or anything over here

 

Bring back the poop.

 

Have it!

 

yes, this is an ideal thread for it. A few corkers on this one.

 

well they already gave the guy that thought injecting bleach was a good idea a go so why not at this point

 

Like a global pandemic?

 

Come on you're better than that postal votes have been going far longer that this virus.

 

What exactly are the risks / issues with postal voting? What makes them more susceptible to fraud, other than the fact that they may not be delivered in time?

 

What's to stop one member of a family filling the postal votes in I believe there was a claim that was made in areas of Bradford in the past, what's to stop it.

 

Simply that one person can collect them all in from more vulnerable people that don't participate in voting as a rule and vote for their own preference in bulk...

I am sure that this goes on on a massive scale and will indeed influence the results, especially in our case close to home and certain North London areas otherwise how the hell do the likes of Abbott and co get in.. ?

 

Maybe they do it different in the States, if they don't it's quite open to abuse, and seeing some of those on the streets supporting both candidates I wouldn't put anything past them.

 

One Of Trumps Lawyers claimed one box of 18000 votes when opened were all for Biden with not one Trump vote among them Must have learned from the Bradford method lol

 

Very true there will always be unscrupulous people who want to cheat, maybe a way around that is for the individual voting takes their voting card you receive through the post (if your entitled to vote) unless you show it at the polling booth you don't get a vote, the onus is then passed back to the individual wanting to vote, I would assume that was the original reason for posting the individuals voting card through your letterbox as part of proof of who you were ?.

 

Can we just rejoice in his losing?

Gloating is poor form but just the sight of his kid standing outside some random government building saying "it's not fair" and stamping his feet like a small boy was hilarious.

But then the lawyer of a global real estate businessman making out that his client was on the side of the regular guy and the other side didn't care about the working man was particularly annoying.

 

Its a good job trump doesn't have to pay his tax bill, being a billionaire sucks so much.
