Trump suggests election delay to counter voter fraud
-
I was wondering why @Larry got so worked up to argue over the differences between “absentee” voting and “mail-in” voting.
This explains it: https://www.huffpost.com/entry/trump-absentee-ballots-mail-fraud_n_5f24e9e1c5b656e9b09bbe87
Trump, after baselessly sowing doubt about “mail-in” voting, proclaim that “absentee” voting is great and that Trump himself will be doing “absentee” again. Now @Larry has to defend Trump’s silly self-contradiction yet again.
While we are on the topic of Trump voting, enjoy this historical footage on Trump being too stupid to vote in person:

Since Virginia only has absentee voting, I’ve gone ahead and registered to be sent one so i don’t have to go in person in November. So far it’s asked for my SSN, Drivers License number, and normal name/address/DOB. It even asks if it should use my drivers license signature as the one to reference. Not bad!
Biggest issue will be the masses in late October and early November who didn’t realize they had to do this by Oct 13th.

I just find it amusing that some do not care if we have voter fraud.
How silly of some of us to care....

Yeah, you should definitely delay the election. 'Cos there's nothing fraudulent in that idea. Donald Trump is as honest as the day is long.

I'll have you know, I'm as sober as a judge.
Justice Kavanaugh, to be precise.

From Brookings: Low rates of fraud in vote-by-mail states show the benefits outweigh the risks.
"[Trump] has made two accusations about mail-in ballots; the first is that they favor Democrats and the second is that they make it easier to cheat. Neither one is supported by the facts. There is no evidence to suggest a systematic bias towards one party or another from mail-in ballots. Nor is there any evidence that there is widespread fraud in the use of mail-in ballots."

What's odd is that it's so unusual for Donald Trump to make controversial statements on Twitter with absolutely no evidence to back them up.
It's almost as if some dipshit hijacked his account.

What I find odd is how TDS sufferers are able to twist what Trump says around and create a completely incorrect narrative, then repeat it over and over again until no one remembers that he didn't actually say what he's being accused of saying. Trump never once said he was going to delay the election. Not once.

Read an article about some newspaper that did a mail in ballot experiment, mailing 100 ballots to a PO Box - a full 2% of the ballots never showed up.
They then point out that Wisconsin and Ohio (or some such states) went to Hillary and Donald with margins of 0.5% and 0.2%.
Who ever loses will cry foul, as it has ever been at least since 2000.

FWIW I have hated mail in balloting in Oregon since it began, because I think trying to make it easy for every dumbsh!t to vote is a poor idea.
In Oregon you have to go online to double check and make sure your vote was counted and they didn't disqualify you because your chicken scratch didn't match up closely enough to what they have on file.
cheers buddy, I’m two double IPAs deep so it’s sleepy time for me...
