    And the sands shift yet again. From conservative to now moderate independent. I think this is just code for too embarrassed to admit their allegiance to folks like Bernie or AOC. But, as always, it's nice to see comrades enjoying a freedom they couldn't engage in at home.

    The thing is. It’s VERY easy to vote. The narrative that it’s difficult is BS!!!! You could always vote by mail. And nothing is stopping you from voting in person. If you are able to go to work or go shopping you can ****ing vote. And if you can’t do either of those people have been absentee voting for decades. As usual Democrats spin and scare people into insanity. They are actively trying to create unrest and chaos.

    Fear must be leveraged in order to make folks accept the new fraud. Democrats didn't think this through very far, and when they lose the presidential election, this is where their legal efforts will start. Knowing that going into the election, it's best for folks to just show up, like you said. Going to the grocery is essential. So is voting.

    My god. I've never claimed to be conservative. You need to up your reading skills as well. What I have said is that I'm more conservative than Trump, again. This likely makes me more conservative than many Trump supporters, which I've also said. Why on earth would I lie about my political opinions? And you'll notice, if you look, that any claim of any ideology by me has been in response to be called a "leftist," which I'm not. Read. Learn. Discuss.

    Prove your claims. Use the search function. I'll wait.

    Your biggest mistake probably begins in thinking Trump is conservative. He's not.

    All states have absentee ballots, for 4 or 5 that's pretty much all they do.

    Again, you are making the allegation, and have f*** all to back it up.

    This is also just a distraction from blatant Republican attempts to steal the election. Something Trump has repeatedly talked about.

    And when cornered, or otherwise exposed for their duplicity, words drenched in spittle appear. And now, there's no conservatism at all. And all of those gun totin, small gov liking, baseless policy assertions of yesterday vanish as quickly as they appeared. So, when you demand we listen to yet another mutation of the same visage, we might do so with less care. The actions are always what matter.

    You have some serious comprehension issues. We're done here. Good luck. Stay out of trouble.

    Wow... attempting once again to conflate mail-in and absentee voting, after being repeatedly educated that they have nothing in common...
    and accusing republicans of stealing the election by suggesting that the vote should take place the old-fashioned and unassailable way - at the ballot box. The gall these crafty republican devils have.

    LOL libs are a riot.... (pun intended) :D

    PS Still no evidence that the polling place is more dangerous than Walmart's checkout lane?

    There are several ways, closing polling places, disenfranchising voters, suppressing voters, screwing with the mail, using the court in an attempt to repeat the 2000 election fiasco, and more.

    You still need better lies.

    nah, they are not hiding, they are scamming gullible libs into donating them gobbles of money and living the good life at the libs' expense, they've long abandoned any pretense of supporting a single conservative cause, or any cause for that matter, besides enriching themselves by selling Trump hate.

    You said
    Well the reason we talk about fraud is because it can affect the outcome and you said it doesn't matter because there is no evidence of significant fraud and that is a canard, it doesn't have to be significant to FRAUDULENTLY affect the outcome of a close election and have TREMENDOUS consequences.

    There is no evidence of significant voter fraud. That is true. If you have evidence of significant voter fraud, please produce it.

    By your approach, voter suppression does not have to be significant to affect the outcome of an election. Preventing 10 people from voting could alter the outcome.

    What has Trump done to divide this country, NOTHING is the answer you are looking for. What has Biden done to unite, NOTHING again is the answer.
    The Left and only the left has been dividing this country since his election. Wake up and smell the coffee.

    Define significant voter fraud. And again claiming it must be significant before it can affect an election is a canard you keep spouting. Why? It's not my "approach" but by yours preventing 10 people from voting is not significant.

    Significant in terms of the percentage of fraudulent votes compared with the total legitimate votes. It is minuscule. Almost certainly mote, in mist if not all cases, than the percentage of spoiled ballots.

    As for the the part in bold, you keep asserting that I have said that. I have not. I challenge you to find a post where I’ve said that. Quote me.

    Once again you look only at one aspect- fraud. You completely ignore voter turnout. You seem to take the position that if making it easier to vote aso allows even one fraudulent vote to be cast, it is unacceptable.
    I say first of all that making it easier to cast a legitimate ballot does not necessarily make it easier to cast a fraudulent ballot. But more than that, if making it easier allows 10,000 people to vote who would not have otherwise voted, but permits three fraudulent ballots to be cast, that is an acceptable trade off. You are more likely to measure the will of the people accurately if more of them vote.

    Niw - can you identify any election that was decided by fewer votes than the number of fraudulent votes?

    What percent is OK?

    You are the one claiming voter fraud is insignificant because it is miniscule, insignificant in that it can't change an election because it is so miniscule. If that's not what you are saying then please clarify what it is you are saying and what is your point.

    I look at all fraud and am completely aware of voter turnouts. People are voting now when the election is still almost 3 weeks away how much easier does it have to be do we have to send voting machines to their houses so they can vote? Why is everyone rushing to vote on the first day when they were demanding weeks and week of available days to vote.

    Can you point me to a site that list every election/vote that has every occurred and lists the number of fraudulent votes that occured in each one?
