For real, if they are so good at cheating and stealing elections why did they fumble the ball so hard this time? They stole just one very close House race and not, like, the entire thing? Pathetic. I'm disappointed Democrats.

“Congressman John Duarte was winning but after 22 days of counting ballots he is now losing by 105 votes,” Greene wrote on X Wednesday.

She's so dumb it honestly hurts my brain just to contemplate her existence.

It's brilliant frankly, you've rigged the system but you don't want Republicans to know, so you just give them the House, the Senate, and the White House to lure them into a false sense of security. A flawless plan, they'll never see the next step coming: being helpless to stop the unfolding erosion of civil liberties and public health and safety.

"The horse I bet 500$ on was winning but at the last minute some pile of glue came from behind and edged out a win. This is obvious cheating. "

She's one of those people who claim the refs are biased when their team loses a football game.

According to this infosec professional, they may very well have stolen the election

I've been making fun of Trump supporters for the last 4 years for this shit.

I never started screaming there was a stolen election. But after having read the piece, I see a reason for concern.

[–] capital@lemmy.world 4 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

I don’t. And you shouldn’t either after you read the snopes article about it.

[–] karashta@piefed.social 2 points 3 weeks ago

And now that someone showed me that, I withdraw what I said. I'd never seen anyone write about it or talk about it. And just figured someone should look into it (they did)

~~This is very interesting and deserves a post of its own. Those bullet ballot inconsistencies should demand scrutiny.~~

This is bullshit, sorry.

Hadn't seen this! Thanks! No one said anything about it for days afterwards and I never saw anything come of it.

This is all I wanted unless there was more concrete proof of tampering. Just seemed like someone, somewhere with some credentials should have looked into it. And now I know they did!

Thank you for the correction.
