Possible for election results to be rigged?

Dead people voting is like the tip of an iceberg.

If six dead people voted, it should be looked into. But I don’t see any “iceberg.” I hear people saying there is a bunch of evidence of massive wrongdoing. If that is true, it should be put on the table, in the courts. The American people deserve to have that adjudicated, if it exists. So far, haven’t seen it.

I don’t believe there is widespread fraud in this election. The problem is Donald Trump is a pathological liar, Malignant Narcissist and Sociopath. He has a anti-Christ spirit that sows dissention, division, fear, anger, hatred, discord, violence, and strife. He delights in ridiculing the weak. He is haughty, full of pride, and arrogance. He is vulgar. He never repents, forgets or forgives.

His worldview violates the Ten Commandments. Catholics are required to confess the unrepentant sins of Donald Trump in the Sacrament of Reconciliation before approaching the altar and receiving the Eucharist. People scream that he is Pro-Life. He has helped the Pro-Life Movement, but at what cost? What does Donald Trump want in return? Are Christians willing to pay the price?

An anti-Christ spirit is a cunning spirit. Even the elect can be deceived. It’s disheartening to me that millions of Evangelical Christians and Catholics have staked their claim with Trump for a carrot on a stick. They are convinced that God is working through Donald Trump, yet cannot work through Joe Biden, though Joe Biden seeks God. I stake my claim with Jesus Christ, his mercy, his ability to bring good out of evil, and his eternal message that I need not have fellowship with evil to achieve good.

Dead people voting is like the tip of an iceberg. If the dead can get away with vote fraud, the living are far more capable. It is an indicator of a more extensive problem that needs to be investigated.

So all the republican and democrat governors, secretaries of state, and election officials who have said that there is no evidence of wide spread voter fraud or anything going on in their states are just a bunch of liars?

There are guidelines in each state, poll counters are paired up from both parties, and work together to ensure accurate counting. In previous elections votes have been off by even a couple of hundred votes, but only in 2000 was the difference close enough in Florida to have an effect on the actual outcome of the election.

When all the legal battles are finished, the results will be as they are. Nothing is going to happen to push the results back to Trump’s side. That is my prediction. We shall see if it is right. If not I will get a bowl full of my words and eat them. Hopefully everyone else is prepared to do the same.

You are quite free to have an opinion. I doubt your opinion will move the needle on what is happening, though.

The state of things when the polls actually closed…

I guess some folks don’t understand how elections work in the US.

All states set their own rules on whether or not they do mail in ballots, absentee, or in person. All states set the rules on when mail in, or absentee ballots are allowed to be opened, allowed to be counted, the deadlines for when they need to be turned in and many, many other rules.

If a state allows mail in or absentee ballots to be received a week after the polls close on election night, and that any mail in ballots can’t be sorted, counted or otherwise recorded until after the polls close, well guess what, it takes some time to get all that done.

So sure, what the polls showed for in person voting on election night might very well change when the final tally of all votes is done.

Now if folks are advocating that only in person voting be allowed, that is another thing. Go talk to your state representative and get it changed. Because we don’t have a national election. We have 50 state elections which have national results.

I doubt your opinion will move the needle on who the victor in this years Presidential election is either. You can tap on it all you want, but it is what it is.
