Could there possibly be a more breathtakingly naive post in all of Western Christendom?

Could be but we should all want to make sure.

Did you hear that "woosh?"

It was the sound of Egbert's argument going right over your head.

That would be great and I am agog to see the results. However the rightwing OP, who now clearly has egg on his face with the 35,750 figure, chose not to and I am against letting propaganda stand.

And some of them might even be the same people.

But the number is still so tiny that it proves the system to already be of remarkably high integrity.

A number so vanishingly small as to prove it's a non issue.

I've never posted tin foil photos. Nor have I ever "claimed victory".

But you are asserting a conspiracy, coordinated or not, and the fact that you are committed to believing that your fellow Americans, thousands in North Carolina say you, means that any facts or logic that contradicts what you are committed to believing will be discounted.

I'm well able to win a basic argument.

I've already pointed out that, in fact, while these allegations keep on being made by conservatives, that there is no proof. Your rebuttal, that Democrats are acting in a coordinated way to hide the proof, is not supported by facts, but is in fact, an example of digging further into the conspiracy hole.

Did you even read what you posted?

We just recently learned that there are over 900 individuals who had died before the election (and had voted) and at least 600 of those individuals had died way outside the window that an absentee ballot could have been sent, so we know for a fact that there are deceased people whose identities are being used in elections in South Carolina.”

No, it should be monitored more....But then again, the link you provide says completly different...lol...

What nonsense. Voter fraud is fraud. Period.
As long as the number is smaller than the number of eligible voters who will be denied the franchise by whatever the "fix" might be, they are permissible.

Basic risk/return.

Nonsense, you know the only goal for wanting secure elections is to stop black folks from voting. Any other reason given is always hiding the fact that nobody wants black people voting.
