And it must also always be repeated that the KGB does not act without the overt help of the GOP.

The tests uncovered nothing suspicious. That supports a conclusion that voting machines themselves were not hacked.
Additionally the polls were only off by a point. They were substantially more accurate than in the 2012 election.
If you have some evidence other than a blind insistence that facts don't matter, present it.

(25,111 posts)Tons of articles of how the Democratic Party is divided, disarray, Spanish community not engaged, POC not engaged, educated whites not engaged. The economy will save the GOPers . . . . . .
Same damn thing they did in 2016 they are doing now and forever = cheat, steal, suppress, purge, whatever it takes to win courtesy of the GOP.

(11,738 posts)The "Spanish" community should not be engaged as we are not Spain. The Latino-American or Hispanic-American communities however, are fairly engaged as the issues of immigration, jobs, criminal justice, and trade affect us.

(25,111 posts)There was a article that said that the Latino community was not engaged into voting at this point time although they are "angry" at t-rump . . . .

(11,738 posts)Mexicans can be socially conservative, but tend to support Democratic candidates on economic and immigration issues. Puerto Ricans tend to lean more Democratic while many Cuban and Central Americans tend to be more conservative. There are many different points of view in the pantheon of Latino people. I know that much of my family and my friends are very motivated to vote in the coming elections.

(21,646 posts)extreme right wing propaganda or almost Alex jones type crap . Getting easy to check and I don't think I'm paranoid because I never said stuff like this my whole life but yes something is out there in the media working against us
Or "I used to be liberal but.. "is another one playing the opposite approach

(10,828 posts)dispute it as BS. We cannot say we weren't warned. Same old, same old, a ghostly trail from 2016.
Eyes on the prize. We concentrate on getting out a massive vote and bat down the new attempts to roll the result.
Never forget, never forgive. We know who they are this time.
