But then again, that still doesn't solve the problem of one voting on "behalf" of an inactive voter who's chance of following up that he "did not" vote is a virtual nill. What safeguards are in place to prevent such from happening?

How do we know it's so successful in those 5 states? You realize fraud is very hard to catch and prove right? It seems to me like you are assuming honesty and integrity is a universal human trait. Especially given the current climate and what's at stake, that's a fatal mistake to make.
You might like to read the linked article referenced by the earlier one I posted. This one explains many of the safeguards in place.

If you don't want votes counted you destroy them not throw them away where they can be found,.....unless it's a set up to cover the loser's ass.

Get out of here with these discredited alt-right conspiracies. You’re acting as a conduit for spreading this nonsense.

there is a chance it might not be true but he gave great detail. some things said on the radio are true.

look voter fraud does happen we can argue to what extent. that was my main point.

That is not alt right that is plain right wing. the problem is the people on the left refuse to listen to any right wing material so they are afraid of it. I watch cnn to see how the other side thinks and watch some YouTubers that are considered left wing.

they interpreted what was said into English.

there is audio to prove it.

Notice how many disclaimers Hannity places during that segment? It’s because he and Fox News know it’s misinformation and they are attempting to shed liability.

1) It’s been verified that worker was a ‘third party’ collecting ballots for Jamal Osman, a Minneapolis city council candidate.

2) Per Minnesota law, third parties can collect (I.e., “harvest”) ballots to ensure they reach their intended polling station. You might not like it, but there’s nothing fraudulent per MN law.

Caught again, regurgitating #fakenews in this sub.

something must be going on if the police are investigating. if it was as simple as Minnesota law the police would not be investigating. I heard the ballots where blank.
https://www.foxnews.com/politics/min...lot-harvesting they would not lie about police investigating.

quote from site
"According to the Minneapolis Star-Tribune, the state's Supreme Court recently upheld a rule limiting to three the number of absentee ballots any individual could collect. At the same time, it ruled that a similar cap, assisting three people for in casting their ballots in-person, will remain unenforceable."

An investigation does not equal guilt. Seems they’re going off purely off a lead from Veritas, which doesn’t exactly have a blemish free record. In fact, it has a terrible record full of bias and intentionally misleading editing.
