Glitches only operate one direction. It goes way back to the Daly machine and possibly before.

Nixon likely won the 1960 election. Was very clear evidence it was stolen for Kennedy.

Losing our freedom one glitch at a time

We are done.

If Trump gets back in on January 21, as an entire community, we absolutely fucking must demand election reforms and secure elections. vote by mail must be banned, voter registries must be updated and enforced, must require ID (and establish a free government ID so Democrats with low expectations of minorities will be happy), establish standards and a full auditing process, must ban the use of machines who share owners have conflicts of interest with the results (like everyone), just to make sure this never happens again.

Establishment on both sides will fight it. But Trump has ONE CHANCE to fix it if the results of this bullshit end up in his favor. While it ts a hot topic and while the dem base is mad.

You need ID for most welfare. The "poor people can't get ID" is a Democrat lie to stop voter ID.

Mostly. You need an ID or some verification for welfare (SNAP, WIC, or TANF). You don't need a specific gov issued ID.

Also, social systems aren't a right.

The better comparison is that Dems want Gun Buyer ID laws, but insist Voter ID laws are racist and would stop people from exercising their rights.

I loved watching a video of that where they went a a majority black area and asked if they thought it was racist to ask for id, and if they had it. They also explained why they were asking.

I think every one of them were offended, and were like "Of course I have ID?, Do they think we are stupid?"

100% this, what happened in this election can never happen again. Free Voter ID, absentee only upon request and for legitimate reasons (I voted by mail this year because I was working out of state on Nov. 3), all voting machines must be secured, have no online access, and must be tested before and after votes are tallied to ensure accuracy, all counting rooms monitored by election officials and CCTV, hell I'd even go so far as to have peoples' fingers dipped in ink after they vote to ensure they aren't going somewhere else to vote again.

Ink isn’t needed if we have ID and a required precinct. But...

I think it brings up a good point. We can have a new school (encryption and hashing confirmations) as well as old school (all paper records).

People talk about blockchain are 80% nonsense but the short story is must push HARD on this coming up.
