There are very many polling locations with very many different people in charge. It's going to be hard to shut them all down without central coordination.
It'd probably take an act from a sitting President. Trump won't do this.
"During the 2016 elections, local election officials operated 116,990 polling places, including 8,616 early voting locations, across the country. These polling sites were operated by 917,694 poll workers." [1]. That is a lot of people to corrupt and a lot of locations.
The story out of Iowa relates more to finding poll workers. It is factually true they may be closing polling locations. The headline doesn't mention they are moving the closed precincts to open ones. If you voted last time at the "1A" location, they may combine it with "1B" @ "1B's" location. Extra steps but you still get to vote. [2]
It's the weekend. Some early voting ended, some hasn't. You can't do much else at this point other than vote Tuesday, if you haven't already.
When this country launched for the moon there were several points where all anyone could do was push the button and hang on.
Must be nice. I am voting in person on election day, but I live in PA so they will still get the count of how many ballots they need to harvest before the final tally is due.
The Presidential vote in CA is winner take all for the electoral college (which is a whole 'nother issue, I hate that my vote is nullified by a percentage), but state and local voting is so important here.
VOTE, CA Pedes. We need every conservative voting. It's bleak here, but we CAN turn the tide! If Arnold can be elected Gov, and we can get rid of slimebags like Grey Davis, we can flip this fucking socialist shithole!
Same. If some left poll worker fucks with my vote, so be it, but I cast it.
I really want a national/state system that lets you access your ballot, to make sure it's not tampered with. But I also know that's another vector to fuck with. I'm not a fan/supporter of bitcoin or cryptocurrency, mostly because of China's control over much of it, but blockchain tech could be one VERY solid use case for it, for elections. My vote is on the chain. Try to fuck with it, libs. (I know, I know, blockchains can be fucked with, but I think it can be made a fuck ton safer than paper ballots, by mail.)
The thing that bothers me the most, and always has, is that once I cast a vote, I cannot track it afterwards. Who knows where it will end up? Or be counted? Or changed? We can do taxes, renew licenses, do most of our lives online, in secure ways, but we're using paper for ballots? And liberal poll workers?
Blockchains are just a distributed database. They have been mathematically proven in a perfect best case scenario, you only need to control 1/3 of the nodes to do bad things to them. These proofs are decades old. And all the current big names are not best case.
How easy would it be? China putting up the firewall for a few minutes, then reconnecting is enough to be problematic.
How would China firewall a blockchain the states and Fed run, disconnected from crypto. Asking honestly, I don't know where China comes into this.
As for the rest, I'm going on what I've been told by people who know way more about how the actual tech works than I ever will. If I'm wrong - it's cool, I'm just throwing ideas out there to modernize voting to stop the liberals in their tracks as much as possible.
The security of block chain relies on being decentralized. If it is all run by one org, such as the gov., then it might as well be a database, because that is all the security you need.
With judges giving key states another week to harvest them, that's not really going to matter. I was going to wait until Election Day, then remembered a last minute unavoidable emergency prevented me from voting two years ago. I wasn't going to leave it to chance and voted, in-person, straight Republican on Thursday.
I'm not a fan of early voting and probably wouldn't do it again, but this year it was too important to risk missing out.
Don't believe any of them. Although it's worth noting at least that Trump has been saying that his internal polling numbers are way different than what the big pollsters are reporting.
just remember, polls only count alive peoples votes. It does not count what is almost certain to be the biggest coordinated election fraud in human history. We do not know what sort of machinery they have been building up for the last 4 years, but you can be damn sure they have gone ALL IN. Everyone should vote as if they singlehandedly decide the outcome, and they should get EVERYONE they possibly can to do the same. It seems cliche to say it, but this is the most important vote in our lifetimes. This will probably be said, and truthfully in 2024 too, but the fight against the evil globalist agenda will probably continue forever. As a great man once said, the cost of liberty is to remain forever vigilant. These are not just mere words, they are a timeless truth
Have to assume there's snakes in every hole when it comes to this stuff. I don't trust any of them. The only thing you can believe right now is Trump's rally schedule. Where he's going and where he's been tells you everything.
It's a poll, not a vote result. There are no results until November 3rd. So even if this is real, it's just people saying something. Untill they actually follow through and vote accordingly, it's just that, only words. And I wonder if changing poll numbers are indicative that earlier polls were wrong or that people change their preferences. 2016, it was reported a lot of voters changed their minds on election day and switched to Trump. This will not be possible this year, as millions and millions have already voted, and I doubt that a lot of them go through the hassle of having their vote changed (if even possible in their state). So I guess a lot of "October surprises" come a bit too late this year, and this affects mainly democrats who already voted, while Republicans can be influenced up to election day. Might put us at another disadvantage to overcome.
Through all the polls and the hysteria you just gotta look at the victory or loss spreads from 2016 and then look at the vote totals Gary Johnson got. The Libertarians will not get anywhere close to those vote totals this time around.
Now think back to 2016 and Hillary actually pulled in decent crowds whenever she decided to actually campaign, albeit with the help of a musician or celebrity. Many of the Dems were voting for "the first woman President". Now they could not care less who their candidate is. It is purely anti Trump.
To me this tells me that MN, NV and NH are easily in play. Of course Trump broke down that northern "blue wall" on the slimmest of margins so those are in play going the other way. But Look at what Trump did in Iowa and Ohio. He buried Hillary. How Ohio goes so goes the race right? Well the Dems have given up on Ohio. Trust your gut instinct. Trump will win and pull in more electoral votes than last time.
Hillary would have beaten any Republican not named Donald Trump. She actually had some hype. I know people who voted for her in 2016 and are voting Trump this time around. Biden really has nothing at all going for him.
There's not a single person out there who votes for Biden because of his proposed policies are so great or because he's so likable (he's an angry old man when you actually watch him speak) or even that he has a good VP choice. The guy has absolutely zero going for him. It's just pure Trump hatred that the left has and that doesn't get people to turn out in numbers. There's no Obama hype this time around. It's zip.
That's why I question how the Dems intend to make up additional votes compared to 2016 when Trump's base has only grown since then.
Republicans are more aligned with libertarians on government and economic issues, while Democrats are more aligned with them on social issues. All depends on what each person finds to be more important.
The whole social thing used to be true 20 years ago. Now the Dems have gone so far left that any reasonable libertarian should also vote Republican for social issues.
Had to go on a wild goose chase across all of SW Iowa three weeks ago to get combine parts and the number of Sleepy Joe, Greenfield, and Cindy TAXme signs I saw were discouraging.
Iowans, get out for Trump and Joni Ernst and bring your friends!
All American's will vote this election, more than any election prior. The only ones not showing up are the anti-American's. They have nobody to vote for, they're depressed, demoralized and in despair!
Calm down, nobody in here will be staying at home because we think the election is in the bag. GEOTUS brought in record primary numbers during which he was basically running unopposed. This race is even more important, we will all be there.
Just Voted in SOCAL. Saw 6 Trump flags/signs on the way over. Saw one sad little Biden sign. 2 trucks with U.S. flags and Trump flags passed me on the way back. Trump 2020
I’m voting on Election Day so the deep state won’t know how many ballots to harvest
THIS^^^^^. We need to descend on the voting locations like an Army
Did you not see all the reports that the left will get the polls shut down Tuesday? All they have to do is call in a bunch of bomb threats.
There are very many polling locations with very many different people in charge. It's going to be hard to shut them all down without central coordination.
It'd probably take an act from a sitting President. Trump won't do this.

God bless your dad fren!
My plan as well. I live in CA, so my vote is basically a big middle finger to the establishment and nothing more. But I want to make sure it's counted
Popular vote doesn't officially matter, but in the media it will definitely matter. Every vote in Communist-occupied states definitely matter.
The Presidential vote in CA is winner take all for the electoral college (which is a whole 'nother issue, I hate that my vote is nullified by a percentage), but state and local voting is so important here.
VOTE, CA Pedes. We need every conservative voting. It's bleak here, but we CAN turn the tide! If Arnold can be elected Gov, and we can get rid of slimebags like Grey Davis, we can flip this fucking socialist shithole!
Same here in CT...
CT may be in play. I’ve heard good things. Don’t give up hope yet.
Same. If some left poll worker fucks with my vote, so be it, but I cast it.

VOTE VOTE RED RED
If you have not voted - DO it NOW!!
Don't wait.
TRUMP 2020!
MAGA and KAG!
Don't trust any polls! Down ticket voting is very important.
Pollsters don't know it be like it is but it do.
Turned in my ballot today! 🇺🇸❤TRUMP2020!
Impressive soldier!! KEK♥️🇺🇲🇺🇲
Don't trust any polls. Only voting matters and vote R down ballot.
I just checked vote.wa.gov. My ballot was accepted, so it appears I have officially voted!!!!
Mine was accepted yesterday. MAGA.
Hopefully Culp and Espinoza win.
Everyone and their mother is LARPing this close to the election and I’m supposed to believe this one in particular?
Don't believe any of them. Although it's worth noting at least that Trump has been saying that his internal polling numbers are way different than what the big pollsters are reporting.
He’s been talking about a red wave and I believe him
We already see it with early voting in many seats
And many democrats are going to vote red this election

i dont know who this dude is
and he got it from a GOP senator?
no way Trumps people give that info out to "GOP senators"
calling BS on this Gottfried dude
regardless get out and VOTE bring friends
I think that is the Fox News guy from the 4.5 (Williams only counts as 0.5)
Still LOT of disinfo out there...
FUCKING VOTE
Have to assume there's snakes in every hole when it comes to this stuff. I don't trust any of them. The only thing you can believe right now is Trump's rally schedule. Where he's going and where he's been tells you everything.
On not sure how you get results before its counted...but eight sounds amazing

Wouldn't Bernie protest votes more likely go to Jill Stein?

Doesnt matter what the polls say, GET OUT AND VOTE LIKE YOUR COUNTRY DEPENDS ON IT
It's baffling to me.
Had to go on a wild goose chase across all of SW Iowa three weeks ago to get combine parts and the number of Sleepy Joe, Greenfield, and Cindy TAXme signs I saw were discouraging.
Iowans, get out for Trump and Joni Ernst and bring your friends!
Rural people who vote Dem are fucking stupid.
Do they not see what’s happening in America’s cities? Do they want riots?
There is no magic ball... VOTE
Sucks Texas is becoming that close.
All American's will vote this election, more than any election prior. The only ones not showing up are the anti-American's. They have nobody to vote for, they're depressed, demoralized and in despair!
And scared of the Chinese Coof.
This is why Kellyanne's daughter had a meltdown the other day hahah
Yup ^ THIS
I don’t believe these numbers, still voting.
There is no complacency! Run up the fucking score! Make the libs terrified to ever run a damn crooked commie fucker again!
I’m voting on Election Day in person and without a mask. No worries
KEY NOTE:
"What I believe to be".
I think the polls are way higher, internally. And, polls are like assholes, everyone has one,the only poll that matters is at the ballot box.
President Trump is not acting like someone who is losing.
Stop nagging me, mom! I already voted! Geez!
Seriously tho, go vote and drag 10 people with you like Bongino keeps saying.
The problem for us is, a close win is a loss, after the Dems print a few thousand ballots and submit them late.
The only polls that matter are the ones on election day! GO VOTE!
These polls sux ...they are well within the margin of voter PedoCrat fraud
Even if Trump was up 99% to 1%, I'd be going to the polls.
Calm down, nobody in here will be staying at home because we think the election is in the bag. GEOTUS brought in record primary numbers during which he was basically running unopposed. This race is even more important, we will all be there.
So, another "source familiar with the matter", got it. From a 3 week old account reposting tweets of some irrelevant youtuber. Good one.
Everyone here is already voting, you want to make a difference, go advocate in the hostile territory.
The last sentence said his internal polling had him down in several places he won last year. It is a landslide. Vote and make it bigger.
I propose a new law! Election fraud is met with the death penalty!
none of those numbers make me comfortable. vote!
2 votes from my house coming on the 3rd in Iowa.
RED WAVE
Jesus Christ, is there anyone on here that's NOT going to vote?
Yet
Just Voted in SOCAL. Saw 6 Trump flags/signs on the way over. Saw one sad little Biden sign. 2 trucks with U.S. flags and Trump flags passed me on the way back. Trump 2020
I am grimly awaiting watching the in-person vote #s come in. We can do this pede, we've just...gotta do it.
Make it true fellow voters!
NO GO OUT AND VOTE GET PEOPLE TO VOTE
Hey Texas, you always talk a big game, why so close!?
What about NC? I don’t know why, but that’s the state I’m worried about.
Why so close? You think Trump would have 90% of the vote.
Vote to crush them!! This is our chance to blow all narratives out of the water!
LARP, LARP and more LARP.
Polls are fake, all of them, the only real one is on november 4th. When the results are counted.
Go vote, if you do that we're all good.
VOTE = DEUS VULT
yeah so go vote for trump and dont get Trunalimunumaprzure!!
