Ok so the two "lickspittles" cited voter irregularities and refused to certify the vote. In other words they did their job. This was reversed an hour or so later with a concession to audit the dodgy votes (fair enough), but not before this extraordinary zoom call was leaked to the world where they were named (and their faces identified) and had that angry fool publicly declaring them racists. Ordinary business.

Reminds me of when Trump and his son named the whistle blower. Cowardly indeed.

i wouldn't say leaking the zoom call is coercion. It is a bad look that they did not refuse to certify the (presumably) republican voting county with higher irregularities. I think there is justifiable case of vote manipulation on partisan lines there and the workers deserve to be pilloried (and yet another example of the need for an independent electoral commission - this would also give voter id, properly maintained electoral rolls so the actually dead are removed but people aren't scrubbed for not voting, and impartial scrutineers and processes that both sides could trust)

As I said before I agree that using accusation of racism is counter productive

Yeah maybe, but imo that zoom call was all personal attack and intimidation.

"Did their job", farkin lol. They certified an area with higher instance of irregularities, what happened to "their job" there? Could it possibly be because votes from the certified area favoured Trump, while votes from the non-certified area favoured Biden?

And the circumstances around them reversing this stance is the part you have an issue with? Seriously?

Lol, a Trump supporter getting upset about 'personal attack and intimidation'

 

[sherb]

Un-educated white people who believe that they are being left behind because someone who looks different to them are getting jobs. Who are scared of change. Who have been told that since the Nazi's had the world "socialist" in the party name means health care is the devil

They hate "the establishment" of politics. So when Trump came in, yelling, screaming and acting like a petulant child instead of how normal politicans act, they got caught up in the hype too much to realise he is the establishment. He is the rich guy who doesn't care about the lower class and only cares about his bottom line and ego

Excellent summation.

 

[bourbons]

I dunno. My point was that the leaked zoom call and unfounded accusation of racism is getting into coercion territory. Doesn't sit right

"I dunno" haaaaaaahahahahahaha.

Are you concerned for their feelings?

I think the question is would they even have reversed their stance, had they not been exposed and their bullshit called out.

Trump following Assange playbook?

A Right Wing politician, a worker and a new immigrant go into a bakery to buy a dozen doughnuts

The politician takes 11 of them and tells the worker that the immigrant is trying to steal his dougnut

 

[NSWCROW]

Yeah I can make one for President Biden and VP Harris

But I see there is one for 46th President started by NSWCROW

But I think mods want to keep election chatter on one thread

Was Deanus.
I know this because a spat it at him when he made it because i thought he'd jinxed it like Gavin Excell did with the Shorten PM thread

Man, say what you will about " Barbie of the Corn " but she never gets flustered.

Reps should've ran HER instead of Mayor McCheese !

Haha- she’s a scream. Just saw her saying, with a straight face, that Americans know how to protect their health. 10 million and counting kayles.

Ah and check this out... seems like old Balls isn't the only one uncomfortable about that zoom call;

"A Democratic state politician told a female Republican election official to “think about your kids” and named their likely school,"

Not coercion, threatening kids?

Also, apparently they haven't signed off on the certification.

Michigan election officials threatened for refusing to certify results

A Democratic state politician told a female Republican election official to “think about your kids” and named their likely school, amid a tense stand-off on Tuesday night that briefly saw vote totals in Michigan held up from certification over unexplained irregularities.

So, she is no good because?

Not sure what you mean by "no good", but I've already been over why I don't like her in this post.

 

[Monkey King]

Of who Harris would be the leading candidate

VP gives her front runner and campaign money off the bat - unless she is as dumb as Dan Quayle

Prior to the process kicking off perhaps.

 

[campbell]

Excellent summation.

Yep.

An update for you and most likely Biden/Harris will reach 81 Million votes.

When Michigan Republicans Refused to Certify Votes, It Wasn’t Normal (Published 2020)

The G.O.P. members of a county canvassing board eventually approved Detroit’s election results, but the process left many voters wondering what stands between a routine election and a breakdown of democracy.

Ah... Check this out:

Infowars’ host: Democrats and mainstream media “deserve” mass violence if Trump is not allowed to continue as president.
Fox's Newt Gingrich instructs Georgians to go to the governor's mansion and "communicate that you're prepared to stand up for America"
Steve Bannon suggests a Michigan man standing up for voting rights is a domestic terrorist

Disgusting. Trump is fuelling anger. Ffs idiot, be a man, not a toddler, and just graviously concede.

 

[FireKrakouer]

would have thought that would appeal to individualism and self reliance

I consider it a form of looting.

Balls In will ignore all of that, he is like a broken record.
