So far four GOP candidates have declared (the last day is tomorrow). The threshold to avoid a runoff is 30%. With four candidates it is possible to have no candidates getting 30%, but you would really need to have all those candidates really splitting the vote almost evenly.

Just a correction from my previous post, yesterday was the filing deadline in NC-3 (Special election is being held there due to the passing of Congressman Walter Jones). The filing deadline for NC-9 is next Friday March 15th.

Two words Jussie Smollett. Your question is fallacious.

He lied and every almost Democrat believed him without question. You ought to take some lesson.

Those accused have the right of due diligence and that includes the ability to cross examine their accusers in a court of law. At the time I type this, nobody has been convicted of any fraud, and even of those charged are, it simply disproves there was MASSIVE GOP FRAUD, put forth by the left.

Your answer is fallacious by your own definition. Smollett hasn't been convicted either.

But he's been indicted. And so has L. McCrae Dowless Jr., the long-time political operative who committed the voter fraud on behalf of his client Mark Harris.

No one on the left claimed there was 'massive vote fraud'. Fraud was claimed in one district in N. Carolina, one state. Don't try to blow this up into something bigger than it was in either instance.

Smollett attempted a personal fraud. Dowless attempted an institutional fraud. There IS a difference between those, and neither is a national or even a regional attempt at fraud.

As the other poster already said, there are a lot of contradictions, fallacies and hypocrisies in your argument, never mind the fact that you didnt actually answer my question

Was there MASSIVE GOP FRAUD as claimed by you guys? No you say because the GOP wasn't involved that HAS been Proved.

Case closed.


You guys are simply arguing for argument's sake. And the issue is over. Time to put on the big boy pants and move on.

Not everything is about you.

Now we know beyond the shadow of a doubt that none occurred. It was one or two political hacks at best so far charged by a Democrat DA.

So far I'm only seeing 2 people (including the person you quoted] on this thread making the claim that ithere was massive.fraud. There are more posts from you just complaining about the use of the term massive even though only a couple of posters have said it.

The poster asked a simpler yes/no question. Should be easy enough to answer without deflecting to what other people have said.

Dear the title of this topis is right there, Election Fraud - Committed by the GOP! Yeah, the word massive was added later, but it's clear enough, the Republican party had absolutely 0 to do with this. That HAS been proved beyond the shadow of a doubt.


And I asked a simple Yes/No question. Has anyone been convicted in a court of law. Answer = No.



No deflection except you trying to make it about me.
