GOP Attacks Citizen Led Initiatives

martin said:
The observers are not the reason Trump lost the state by 80,000 votes, or that the many and various Stolen Election claims had any effect whatsoever other than to sow distrust in the institution of citizen voting. It’s not that Trump’s defenders didn’t try. They launched scores of lawsuits that failed. The only positive outcomes in this national fiasco will be the damage awards in the libel and slander countersuits.

easy to say but every effort to pursue the truth was blocked by the government. to date. but that tide is turning.

Republicans and other Right wingers are attacking our democratic values and institutions on multiple fronts. The phony Stolen Election campaign hit one stone wall after another but it has not given up. Rather it is being expanded. Republicans are trying to wrest control of traditionally non partisan functions such as voting registration. Most recently, ballot initiatives seeking to protect state abortion rights, voting rights, and legalizing marijuana are being attacked, not the initiatives themselves but the right to even conduct them.

It's a dangerous time in America, not the first time we've faced one.

Oh noooooooooos! They done stealed 'r demockery!!!!!

This is horrible, isn't it? It's almost like they're...changing the rules or something!

Did you throw a party when Sarah Palin lost her bid for the open seat in Alaska? The people have spoken, right? Look up "ranked choice voting" and find out how the jackass who got 40% of the votes beat Palin with 60%. That isn't democracy.

Easy to say because there are more than 60 defeated lawsuits that say it. Claims such as "every effort to pursue the truth was blocked by the government" aren't proven by saying them. Without social media there wouldn't be a "Stolen Election".

True, the people have spoken. They rejected the jackass. There's nothing undemocratic about "ranked choice voting" in a three or more candidate contest. You and I know you wouldn't be complaining if it had worked in your jackass's favor.

Intelligent people recognize other intelligent people. Dumbasses have a problem differentiating between fellow dumbasses and intelligent people. They often confuse a slick salesman with being intelligent.

Are you denying you've repeatedly danced around shooting me and others on this forum, Arby?

I don't squeal. If you saw your neighbor raping his kid, would you consider it squealing to call the police, Arby?

The only people worried about squealers and snitches are criminals and evil people.

those lawsuits were not defeated so much as they were sidestepped. Ergo the "stolen" description.

But the truth is slowly emerging as are the many crimes from the Biden Influence peddling racket.

Oh! Now you're going all psychologist on me.

Yes.

I would consider it cowardly not to try and stop it.
I hate pedophiles (even more than cats, if that's possible).

You are a coward and a squealer. You have issues...

Then I have to assume you loves you some electoral college, because this sure as hell ain’t the one man-one vote classical “democracy” you jackasses claim to love. And yes I would bitch if Palin had won under these circumstances. State elections are kind of a breath of fresh air for me. The issues are usually clearer and more pertinent to me, and we aren’t caught up in encumbrances like the EC. This is when democracy shines, until you lot start fucking it up.

I understand that some republicans up there are ambivalent about this, or maybe even okay with it. Fuck them too.

but you wouldn't call the police. Got it.

Sure, Arby. You'd run over to the shoot the pedo then leave and never call anyone.
 
RB 60 said:
Yes, that is one example. I'm sure there are more. Aren't you?
Who sent them out, and who didn't? Not hard to figure out...

Ah, I see what you're talking about now. We got that too, from a Democrat organization, if it's the same thing you're talking about. It was not a ballot or a ballot application although it said "ballot" on it. It was just a stupid campaign thing. We just pitched it too.

You are wrong again. It was the "official" mail in ballot application.

Why do you think you know what I would do, or when I would do it? Are you some kind of psychic? A "know it all"? :rolleyes:

Nah, you're just an internet coward who's life goal is getting other people banned. What a life. Sucks to be you, doesn't it?...:laugh:

Because you've posted it several times. No telepathy required. Here's a clue: https://www.psychologytoday.com/us/basics/mind-reading

Are you claiming to be a telepath, Arby? How do you know what my life goals?

Your choice as to how you prefer to vote. You (and your freedom-hating party) want to deny choice to others.

Agreed on both points. Sad.

Any American who seeks to deprive another of their unalienable rights without just cause is unjust.
