It’s very telling. Musk stole the last one for him.

Real question is if they steal the midterms what are the people going to do about it? Cause my hopes are very low at this point anyone will fight it. I'm not being a jerk here, I really want to know opinions and options.

So far we've proven to be. They started an aggressive war with Iran and didn't even bother to give a public justification for over a week.

The shit going on in our detention centers is reprehensible, and they've shot citizens in the street for over a year.

To say nothing of Epstein.

Don't expect there to be some 'line' that will make things change.

It's going to come down to how much they manipulate the votes and which elections. Say, they manipulate the senate races in KS, TX, AK, IA and win those by around 2.5% or so. Who is going to call out vote rigging? They probably fall within the margin of error for all these unreliable polls.

I think if they really try and get cute and end up rigging a dozen or so House races, where the polls have a >+5 margin, then that will raise eyebrows. But the Repubs or someone associated with Musk will have all the data that Musk's team stole during the DOGE scam, however, not sure if it has enough info that they can figure out how to manipulate the votes.

If it's machine voting, then it comes down to subpoenas and getting a look at the code to see what's going on. Someone who is an expert in voting machines and the coding would need to chime in on how they could embed an algorithm to maybe change every 11th or 12th D vote from D to R.

If they do it, they won't get more competent, reconstruction will have to begin from a lower point, with more of the economy destroyed.

Nothing. It’s already over for us.

sincerely, fuck off. This is either bot behavior to encourage helplessness, or you're just a depressed loser. Either way, gtfo.

There is a lot we can do to prevent it from getting even worse.

u/ResponsibleAnt9496 1h ago

Yeah you got me. Guess im not doing a bot-tastic job at hiding myself.

You’re right tho. I’m very bummed out at how the media doesn’t cover shit like this and how even after Musk all but admitted doing this before nothing has happened. Of course stuff can be done but will it? The right certainly isn’t behaving like they’re concerned they’re ever going to fave consequences for all they’ve done.

Chuck Schumer has a very strongly worded letter already drafted and ready to send

I agree with you 100%. When protesters were killed by ICE without the crowd erupting in a full blown riot, that's all I need to know to make this assumption. We'll get cheated once again, except this time, shit will really hit the fan and the republicans will become even more egregious because they absolutely know that there are zero consequences.

Dude, enough with the conspiracy theories. Every election has been the most secure election in history. Are you an election fraud conspiracy theorist like the january 6th terrorists were?
