Trump's reaction to losing
-
@Jolly This Presidency is ending the same way as it started - accusations of voter fraud.
He had 4 years and all the resources of the federal government to run that one down.
He didn't. Without evidence, he has zero credibility here.

@Jolly said in Trump's reaction to losing:
It's broken. There are millions of people who no longer trust the ballot box.
You cannot put the genie back in the box.
As I said Perhaps Trump’s biggest legacy.

So convenient. But your hatred really was the first one.

Access means nothing, if nobody trusts the results.
Democracy means nothing of there is no access.

It has been my observation, that the folks in the Soviet Union had an awful lot of access. Routine turnout was greater than 90%, wasn't it?

Which tells you the importance of access. Even authoritarian regime has to go to great lengths to manufacture the appearance of high turnout to fake legitimacy.
Russia has a different access problem: viable oppositions have no access to the ballot itself — they cannot get their names onto the ballot.

In other words, ballot security should take precedence over ballot access.
People who feel cheated out of their votes , eventually rectify that problem. It tends to be a messy affair when they do.

Not at all.

You feel cheated more immediately if you do not even get to cast a vote.
Or, for that matter, when you are prohibited from voting for the person you want to vote for.

Wrong.
If the ballot is secure, it means something.
You can have access all day long, but if your ballot gets no further than the dumpster, it means nothing.

Wrong. You have to be able to vote first before there is even such a thing as “your vote” to go anywhere.
-
If you know your ballot doesn't count, you don't care about access.

Kind of like a drunk in a bar?
You either walk away or beat the hell out of him?
