In reply to the discussion: I Think we Should Be Extremely Concerned about the Evil that Brought us Trump: Election Fraud [View all]Time for change
(13,714 posts)were close prior to any tampering that may have taken place. You say that Doug Jones' win certainly was close. But do we really know that? As I noted in the OP, professional pollsters routinely adjust Democrat share of the vote downwards to taken into account their belief that Democrats are less likely to vote. But are Democrats really so much less likely to vote, or does it just appear that way because fraudulent official election results show that they under-perform relative to their poll numbers? I believe strongly that it's the latter.
Just maybe.... even a solid majority of Alabamans would rather have as their Senator a man who prosecuted racist child murderers than a sexual predator who as a judge wouldn't even obey the law that he was sworn to uphold. When you think about it, what reason is there to believe that such a race would be at all close in a political climate where you didn't have to move way to the right to endear yourself to those responsible for counting our votes? And by the same reasoning, what reason is there to believe that Americans could elect a man like Donald Trump in the absence of massive vote tampering?
