I would love some attempt at explaining the alleged water leak in Georgia that was widely reported on election night? Why was the leak used as a reason to stop counting votes but then votes were still counted?

Did anyone ever explain the need for ballot drop boxes - why the ballots couldn't simply go in the mail since that's presumably how they got to the voter in the first place.

DeJoy and his dismantling of mail sorting machines, for one. Secondly due to dismantling of said machines, mail was projected to be unreliable, which it ultimately proved to be, people were advised to hand-deliver or deposit in official drop boxes.

But the drop box thing isn't new, as they have been used for absentee/mail voting prior to this election.

A side note The Republicans in California were caught creating fake/unofficial drop boxes, and were made to remove them and account for any ballots deposited in them.

The media just openly lies. They are propagandists

Kayleigh McEnany, Trump staffers knock Washington Post for praising Biden's 'all-female' communications team

No, the Washington Post was just including Judd Deere (who is even quoted in that story you linked) as being part of the Trump communications team - which means that the entire team is not female.

I have to say my first thought is that mail fraud is a crime; maybe that made some people pumping the fraud by mail system a little leery.

That‘s a possibility. If you’re going to engage in election fraud, you don’t want to get caught committing mail fraud too.

 

[BowlBrother85]

I mean the WP literally lied and said Biden’s all female staff was the first. That’s an outright lie.

No... not if you include Judd Deere as a part of the Trump White House communications staff - which he is, as a Deputy Press Secretary.

Was it not so they could watermark all the manufactured ballots?

Perhaps we're an abnormally suspicious lot, but there seem to be far more questions than attempts at reasonable answers. Maybe for people who are in line to take a fall should the dam break and one or more questions have to be properly investigated, silence seems to be the best course.

Just goes to show what propogandists they are. Trump did not get any accolades for having an all female (minus one). Biden adds one more and it is historic and gets an award. Expect to see the slathering media lick it up and in overdrive. Already calling Cabinet members Supermen.

Biden will get nothing but tongue baths in his press briefings.

So you're saying ballot harvesting boxes were used before because this wasn't the first time someone decided to get rid of mail sorting machines?

Yellen, too? Why does that name seem so normal for a woman - particularly one in a position of power?

So far we got Blinken and Yellen.

just need Bitchin and Foamin to round it out.

Joe called dibs on Nod. Sounds like he needs Warren to fill in Bitchin or Foamin. Bernie could probably handle the other one.

Bit of tug of war between the Progressive wing trying to get their people on the inside and the Biden camp trying to minimize it.

I'd love to see a big blowup between the progressive and "moderate" wings of the dem party. They are such sensitive people and so demonstrative in their moods that it's going to be interesting seeing if they can keep it together.

Guess you missed the whole USPS slowdown cluster F Trump appointee DeJoy caused?

Immediately following the election there was reports of upwards to 300k ballots that got lost in the mail system.

Follow up reporting claims they weren’t “lost” but rather they weren’t scanned and couldn’t be confirmed delivered. But since we are choosing what we want to believe based on feelings/smell tests/anomalies, then I’m going to stick with lost.

Yes... their vote was motivated by animus towards Trump. And moderate voters not only exist, they are the majority. That is ignorant.

So I’d rather pay more in taxes. More

Because everyone votes to place themselves under greater economic burden, make retirement harder to obtain, and leave all their sh*t to the government.

We’re just a bunch of bitter clingers.

Hitting the nail perfectly on the head

 

[VolinWayne]

What is the supposed motive for a known Trump supporter like Kemp to purposely throw the election to Biden. Do you think he's getting paid, did Biden promise him cabinet position, did Georgia's GOP nominate a secret Democrat mole?

Lynn Wood thinks he is compromised and has been paid off. I will say he has been very distant this entire election and he's got lots of Georgians that won't vote for him again
