Cancerous Election

Cancerous Election. Says Sarah Hoyt.

I told you so. And I don’t want to hear “I guess people really care about abortion” when poll after poll said that wasn’t it. I don’t want to hear about “People love tyranny” because people DON’T. Do try for once in your life to have a spine.

What did you think would come from letting state after state get swallowed up by fraud? It never occurred to you it would become national? Affect national elections? When you saw the cancer spread, you thought it was someone else’s problem, far away?

If you find excuses for this now, if you buckle under, if you don’t look at the sheer weirdness of the numbers, you’re collaborating with the oppressors. You might as well shave your head now and save us time later.

If you give a d*mn about the republic, about liberty, about America, speak now. And loudly. It’s the only safety those of us already exposed have. It’s the only safety any of us have. And the only chance of restoring the country.

This is not time to go wobbly. I’d say be not afraid, but if you’re not afraid right now, you’re an unholy idiot. Be afraid, but protest and make noise and stand up as much as you despite your fear. Because it’s the only way we survive as a free people.

Commenters:

In every single state Republicans absolutely dominated the in-person voting by 70% or even more …

Same basic pattern as 2020. All the early indicators point to a blow out for us, early voting and exiting polling show major advantages for us, and then over the hours (and days) it all magically goes away. …

How can we say 2020 was decided by fraud and think 2022 would be any different. Really how stupid are Republicans? …

The mail in voting insanity has to stop. It’s a PLAYGROUND for fraud. …

I predict Republican voter participation will fall off a cliff in 2024. Who can blame them, pointless exercises tend not to be repeated indefinitely.

Looks like another squabble over cheating is about to erupt in the next few days.

Elections and vote counting must be both fair and seen to be fair, or the losers won’t accept the result. So paper ballots, voter ID, and purple fingers on election day only (with very limited exceptions, such as out-of-country soldiers).
