If voting didn’t have real power, the weirdos wouldn’t work so hard to keep you from being able to.

    The funny part is Harris doesn’t need AZ.

    The shitty part is vote fraud is being instutionalized thanks to the cunt fart that is Roger Stone.

    2000 Florida all over again.

      According to what? The polls? Those are just probabilities, and they can be inaccurate.

      She needs every state she can get.

        Agreed, it was a smug response on my part granted. However if you look at where they Harris campaign focusing their attention right now it’s not AZ.

        If you do live in America vote. Talk to everyone you see about voting. Not who they’re voting for just so that they vote. Voter turnout helps everyone as Dems this cycle seem to have the most popular platform.

        This is election fraud, not voter fraud though, no?

        What do you consider to be the difference? According to wikipedia the two terms are synonymous:

        Electoral fraud

        Electoral fraud, sometimes referred to as election manipulation, voter fraud, or vote rigging, involves illegal interference with the process of an election, either by increasing the vote share of a favored candidate, depressing the vote share of rival candidates, or both.

          In the US at least, voter fraud is things like voting when you’re not eligible or voting more than once. Electoral fraud is things like rigging the election or illegal campaign funding.

          Vote fraud not voter fraud, covers elections and intimidating voters at the polls to my understanding. I’m happy to be corrected.

            The person to whom I responded made a distinction between “election fraud” and “voter fraud” (not “vote fraud”). According to wikipedia, “electoral fraud” and “voter fraud” are synonymous. “Vote fraud” and “election fraud” redirect to the same page.
