All of them also work in Trump's favor, not Clinton. For what it's worth, the topic hasn't been completely ignored by the mainstream press; I've been posting articles on the subject to the Coffee Party's Facebook page almost every night for two months.<br /><br />Just the same, here's to making the margin of victory so big the election can't be stolen.Pinku-Senseihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16247618351725715844noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8752611264465083204.post-35082782648061563262016-11-06T17:31:34.144-05:002016-11-06T17:31:34.144-05:00Given the truth of what you are saying, the chief ...Given the truth of what you are saying, the chief means of Republican (is there any other side) vote rigging these days is preventing people from voting, either through illegal purges of likely Democratic voters, or of intimidation in Democratic districts.<br /><br />Please do not forget that 80,000 people, largely black and Hispanic, were removed illegally from the Florida voter rolls in 2000, by George Bush's brother. This number dwarfs the difference of a few hundred votes between the candidates in that State, and absolutely gave the White House to the Republicans. This is the power of something like this in one single State, and the message was hardly lost on Republicans, who have a national campaign to do the same in many States this year. Of course, that has been essentially ignored by the mainstream press.Green Eaglehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13477132834757467690noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8752611264465083204.post-25822589439292542672016-11-02T20:47:38.607-04:002016-11-02T20:47:38.607-04:00I've been a poll worker, too, 32 years ago bac...I've been a poll worker, too, 32 years ago back in California. I couldn't recall any step in the process where anyone could have tampered with the voting in the precinct where I worked and gotten away with it. Mind you, there ways to manipulate the system, but those involve voter registration and voting access, not the actual casting of ballots.Pinku-Senseihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16247618351725715844noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8752611264465083204.post-51390804852259519522016-11-02T19:03:11.638-04:002016-11-02T19:03:11.638-04:00Enjoyed the video.

That may include Trump. It would have to be the 9/11 "conspiracy" at least squared.Kevin Robbinshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10555818021469626619noreply@blogger.com
