The 2020 US Election Thread, Born Anew (or was there one?)

[Heald]

From an international perspective, there have been a hugely negative response to what is perceived as the Republican Party's attempts to invent allegations of electoral fraud where none actually took place, as well as refusal to accept the result of the election pretty much up until Biden's inauguration (with dozens of Republicans holding elected positions continuing to spread lies regarding the legitimacy of the result). As the Republican Party itself continues to allow prominent members of their own party to try and undermine democracy, many view this as a dangerous precedent.

In the eyes of many, including myself, you can either support the democratic process or support the Republican Party, who seem to have nothing but contempt for the votes for millions of Americans.

The Democrats tried to say Trump Cheated as well because Russia.
The couldn't believe ANYONE could vote for him and cried for 4 years about it.

Republicans basically said you cheated this time in Response.
Doesn't matter if one is true, both are true, or both are false.
Basic tit for tat US politics.

As someone who DID work the US Elections though, I think people who think "Biden Cheated"
underestimate some people flat out didn't vote in 2016, I ran into a lot of Obama Voters who flat out told me they didn't vote since 2008.
So more people voted this time for sure.

But 100% of the an entire mail in one batch for Biden in WI was kinda sus, you never get 100% of the vote.
Washington DC the most Liberal Place in the entire US gets 95%ish D vote you don't ever get 100%.

* Texas Drops you from the Voters Role if you go 2 Presidential Elections (or 8 years total of not voting)
** It doesnt Expire if you vote for anything else during the 8 years like School Board, City Council or whatever you literally have to go 8 years without voting for anything


Also Heald if Trump won there would have been still an issue knew many Democrats here that flat out said if he won again theyd tear the entire thing down.
Im not saying what happened at the capitol was right btw, but whoever won someone was gonna protest and get upset, that's how divided we are right now.
The Republican Party literally had 6 people not wanting to certify the vote btw (US Senators).
Trump != (does not equal) The RNC.
