UK general election 2019: Was it stolen?

[clayton72]

Did the results match the exit polls? The GOP in the US seems bold in their words and deeds in a way that makes me think they know the fix is in and won't have to answer to the voters in 2020. Is there a conspiracy with Russia support to wholesale cheat elections? I know very little about UK politics. I'm just feeling paranoid and thought I'd share.

1. That's a great quesstion!

I wonder how many electronic tallies around the world the Russians (or anyone else) have changed. I doubt many Democrats have faith in our upcoming elections.

3. UK uses paper ballots to vote and not machines. Each ballot is hand counted.

5. Wow, what a nice luxury for them!

I wonder if we'll ever have that here in the states?

6. Wish ALL votes in the US were mailed to your home and then hand tallied!

2. No, it wasn't fixed. The votes in the UK are counted by hand in each

constituency, in the presence of observers, and the exit polls were very accurate. The Conservatives won a majority of 80, compared to exit polls of 68 to 86. That is very accurate.

4. The exit polls were uncannily (and depressingly) accurate. n/t

[Tiggeroshii]

7. No.

8. Vote itself? No.

But the Tories were found to be lying their asses off throughout the campaign.

10. No. The Labour Party fucked up

[Recursion]

11. They literally announce the results in front of the stacks of ballots

The UK's voting system is just about impossible to hack
