I agree. While the main article is goes deep into obscure (albeit interesting) machinations, your article is very on point. It starts with

if you’re expecting a sexy story about Elon Musk messing with vote-counting software from outer space, sorry, you won’t get that here.

And then lays down the numbers:

— 4,776,706 voters were wrongly purged from voter rolls according to US Elections Assistance Commission data.

— By August of 2024, for the first time since 1946, self-proclaimed “vigilante” voter-fraud hunters challenged the rights of 317,886 voters. The NAACP of Georgia estimates that by Election Day, the challenges exceeded 200,000 in Georgia alone.

— No fewer than 2,121,000 mail-in ballots were disqualified for minor clerical errors (e.g. postage due).

— At least 585,000 ballots cast in-precinct were also disqualified.

— 1,216,000 “provisional” ballots were rejected, not counted.

— 3.24 million new registrations were rejected or not entered on the rolls in time to vote.

It continues listing concrete things people can directly influence. I liked the article, thank you soo much. Very insightful.

These kind of conspiracy theories downplay how much of a piece of shit Nation we have become and how selfish the populace voted.

These aren't theories. Trump said, in his inauguration speech at 53min in, that a non-citizen did that just for him and "rigged the election." He says that he would KNOT have won but that he get the role anyways.

Of course his first task is to clip the buyout on the last check of court in his last time in place. Since then, butchering anything and everything in the "governing" and started the Auction to hand out all parts we built and ruled to...Billionaires? He is pending every USD to show how worthless it is now that it has no real guarentee left since they shot the one guy trying to validate it with Gold the way we used to.

That was Russia? Totally not the CIA.

Doesn't matter now. Everyone is tricked to think the "example" (defenition via the first public "anon" written description) is the real deal despite showing everything, what it does, where, from, to, amount, etc. into a log that will never end.

It is the Snitchcoin. Force corporations to use it so that we can tax the collection of thieves pretending to be human.

Don't take my obvious source be accepted as the REAL trustable means. Do your research. Understand how the open source works. Then you don't need my word. You will understand why Monero was kicked out of nearly every gamble box of loss used to carry pretendables like Zcash, etc.

Meh...do whatever. I ain't telling you what to do like they ate during this pig bank gluttony.

The article makes a great point that there are just too many coincidences in all of this, the theories behind the tech also seem quite sound.

The flipping of swing states on election day but not flipping enough to trigger a recount, so suspicious how a criminal president could be so popular. Especially when many people knew what was at stake, project 2025 had been vocalized a lot.

I think a big part of the whole picture could also be why in gods name did the Democrats concede before the day even ended?

[–] [email protected] 4 points 16 hours ago (1 children)

My mind went right to the DNC leaders being complicit. Maybe they were shown a window or pictures of their children or they are just shitty people.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 7 hours ago* (last edited 7 hours ago)

Yeah i don't know. But they sure went back to thier mansions real quick and stayed out of the picture.

Yeah, I don't see what they're hoping to accomplish with this. The pool has been poisoned for years by baseless claims from the far right about election rigging. No amount of evidence is going to change those peoples' minds, and for the others, you're preaching to the choir.

Even from a legal standpoint, Trump won the election. Good luck uncertifying electoral reviews⸮

E-voting across the US has been a continuous attack vector of covert election fraud for over 2 decades, and in all that time nothing was done to harden them to any legitimate degree.

The oligarchy wanted Trump, and they've been subverting democracy longer than all of us have been alive. The SC was already used to steal the presidential election for Bush ffs.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 19 hours ago

That's not something you will ever solve on FPtPVoting anyways🤷‍♀️

With the Dominion voting lawsuit in place as precedent, whomever is gonna make these election claims better have an airtight fucking defense.

[–] Kowowow 7 points 18 hours ago

It would almost be suspicious if they didn't sue with such a big case to back them up

[–] [email protected] 23 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Momentum is building on this one.

Either people looking into this are going to be “discouraged” or more evidence will be examined and a consensus will arrive.

Not saying which way. IMO the rhetoric of Trump prior to the election was basically a confession and I’ve no doubt the election was interfered with. Without any evidence, that is :|

[–] [email protected] 12 points 1 day ago

That wasn't confession, 53min into that "inauguration" speech, that was bragging.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 16 hours ago

It was weak and impotent when the Republicans did it. So I guess the Democrats feel left out.
