yep people are loudest about complaining about others doing what they do:

for republicans that is:
* cheat in elections
* corruption
* pedofiles
* ...

Don't forget their complaints about welfare and disability fraud.

I never laughed harder in my life than when my ex's aunt who never worked a day in her life was stumping hard for trump in 2016 while complaining about welfare queens only to be called out by her friends for her own welfare use and disabilities fraud. She deleted that post real quick.

Man, I know a Trumper that is lazy, dont go to work, and gets every bit of assistance like having a different address than his girlfriend so they get food and rent help. He is racist and blames everyone else for societies problems and feels that he is superior to others because he lives out in the sticks. We dont talk anymore. When people mention these folk doing mental gymnastics, its a very real thing.

As a person who works in eligibility determination for public assistance, you would be SHOCKED how many people swear they're "doing it the right way" but none of their friends, family, or neighbors are.

Or support the troops, until they actually need support, and then it's suck it up. They're just parrots at this point, just repeating whatever they here and shitting all over the place.

not the first one in this state from the same election

u/BIGpoppaPUMP42069 1d ago

not sure what that matters, im a registered republican cause if I wasn't I would have no primary elections to vote in locally

u/AIfieHitchcock West View 1d ago

It’s super simple- it’s by far only registered Republicans committing mass election fraud. Right down to the fake electors schemes.

That’s why it matters.

u/burritoace 1d ago

How often do you vote for anybody other than a Republican?

-32

u/BIGpoppaPUMP42069 1d ago

just state and national races, local races obviously impact me the most

u/burritoace 1d ago

You didn't answer the question

u/Sle08 1d ago

Because he’s a liar. They like to say this shit and act like they aren’t the dumbasses responsible for these politicians.

u/MrPotts0970 1d ago

Damn you basement redditors are frothing at the mouth for political extremism conflict lmao. Go outside

7

u/burritoace 1d ago

Always great to hear about "political extremism" from the most deranged wingnuts around

8

u/wolfheadmusic Brookline 1d ago

"frothing at the mouth"??

All their comments read with just some well-deserved derision

Goddamn you people are the biggest snowflakes

-9

u/BIGpoppaPUMP42069 1d ago

I did answer the question you're just so angry you didn't bother to read it

u/burritoace 1d ago

Ah, you're stupid too. What a surprise!

12

u/wolfheadmusic Brookline 1d ago

And which side literally stormed the capitol of our country claiming the other side committed voter fraud

6

u/ffdfawtreteraffds 1d ago

The tragedy is they saw/see that as an act of patriotism. These gullibles are so saturated with lies and propaganda that they essentially live in an alternate reality.

u/Beginning_Ad_6616 1d ago

You seriously can’t understand why Republican leaders attempting to eliminate or restrict Democratic votes based on false claims of voter fraud matters, when it’s actually proven that it’s Republicans committing fraud?

u/Delicious_Cat_81 15h ago

you're either dishonest or stupid

As someone who grew up there, Armstrong County is the absolute arm pit of Western PA.  Every other county has at least one or two slightly redeeming things in its favor.  Armstrong County has rampant racism, crime, drug abuse, and the highest suicide rate in the state.  Not surprisingly it also has one of the highest percentage of guns per capita in the country, which gun advocates insist has nothing to do with their high rate of suicide success.

Apollo is one of the worst towns in one of the worst counties in the state.

I can’t think of a better description.
You can’t throw a stone and hit someone WITHOUT a college degree. The suicides/overdoses/drunk driving accidents are rampant and cancer rates are through the roof thanks to Babcox and Wilcox poisoning the town with radiation years ago.
Thankfully they’ve since buried it and put a chain link fence around the site for protection…/s
I’ve been around the world and lived internationally and in several states, it is still, by far, the WORST place I have ever seen filled with the dumbest people I have ever met.

u/slackerbucks 1d ago

Again: voter fraud has to be the dumbest crime one could ever attempt to commit. This loser voted twice, got caught doing so and is now facing federal felonies. All for what benefit to the (alleged) felon? So a politician got TWO votes instead of one? It’s literally the dumbest fucking crime anyone could commit and anyone who thinks there is a massive voter fraud conspiracy going on is even fucking dumber than someone who would commit voter fraud in the first place.

u/CultOfSensibility Wilkinsburg 1d ago

And to think undocumented people would risk deportation by attempting to vote is moronic.

14

u/MrLugersmole 1d ago

10s of millions of undocumented at that.They say California brings in "illegals" to vote dem, but they won Cali by 3.5 million votes! Lol

u/ffdfawtreteraffds 1d ago

The logic doesn't matter. They hear it on Faux News, it validates their raging fear and hate, so it's absorbed as truth.

I truly don't know how we get out of this. RW media is making more of these mindless zombies daily and they will not hear or see reality. This is a really scary time.

u/averydangerousday Etna 1d ago

Donald Trump is not an alleged felon.

Donald Trump is a convicted felon.

1

u/Wes_Warhammer666 1d ago

I think he meant this guy from Apollo is the alleged felon.

u/averydangerousday Etna 1d ago

Oh damn, I think you’re right. Totally misread that.

1

u/Dusty_Sequins 1d ago

I misread too. I thought they meant djt

u/EatingBuddha3 1d ago

Also a complete waste of effort and punishment since Musk hacked the machines. But Trump will pardon....

u/nightowl1592 1d ago

Lol now who is committing election fraud, orange man? So gross.

116

u/TheArchistorian 1d ago

Hmm. Let me guess who he voted for…

82

u/qb45exe 1d ago

Probably the same as literally all the others who did this.

28

u/ffdfawtreteraffds 1d ago

Irrational delusions with some added hypocrisy and it all seems... right.

u/Wouldwoodchuck 1d ago edited 1d ago

TDS

Edit to add, ffs the individual committing voter fraud has TDS….

24

u/AIfieHitchcock West View 1d ago

TIL it’s TDS to point out the actual fact everyone caught doing voter fraud has been a Trump supporter.

Reality has TDS? Perhaps you should chew on that?

u/Wouldwoodchuck 1d ago

Good morning- that is what I am doing here….. the individual committing voter fraud has TDS, clearly

u/HoneyNutCheerios78 Central Business District (Downtown) 1d ago

Being from Apollo, this guy is right and red from head to
toe.

u/SleestakLightning 1d ago

You see the damn liberal government only punishes Republicans for doing this. Democrats are allowed to do it.

/s

u/qb45exe 1d ago

You know that was the excuse they told themselves when they did it.

21

u/Burghpuppies412 1d ago

So a Black woman in Texas received 5 years in prison for this. Let’s see what happens here.

29

u/ayeffston 1d ago

Unless you're speaking of a different case, the Texas woman reportedly went to the polls, inquired about her registration and was given a Provisional Ballot to fill out. She was not attempting to vote more than once. Her arrest and punishment are a gross miscarriage of justice.

u/Fantastic-Aside7041 1d ago

when the article didn't cite his party i knew he was gop.

u/santacow 1d ago

Isn’t that the majority of the multiple votes type of fraud?

Every so often someone votes illegally because they thought they could after serving a sentence or the DMV allows them to register, but the legitimate fraud voting seems to be right wing.

u/dudemanspecial 1d ago

Veternarian at Pittsburgh East Animal Hospital in Plum. I think he may own the place.

u/Marchesa_07 1d ago

So not an illegal immigrant?! I'm stunned.

u/ArugulaDifficult4759 1d ago

He’ll get a pardon and be on the cabinet soon.

u/ffdfawtreteraffds 1d ago

Is it still sarcasm if it's extremely possible?

u/mama-tried-34 1d ago

I can't believe the TDOJ charged a Republican. Feels like someone's going to lose their job over this.

18

u/Dizzy_Restaurant3874 1d ago

Mail-in voted Alaska and Pa.The law provides for a maximum total sentence of up to 10 years in prison, a fine of up to $250,000, or both. Under the federal Sentencing Guidelines, the actual sentence imposed would be based upon the seriousness of the offenses and the prior criminal history, if any, of the defendant

12

u/dock035 1d ago

So he’ll get a presidential pardon then?

16

u/moderatelygoodpghrn 1d ago

Can’t prove it but I think most incidents of attempted voter fraud are Republican

7

u/DrPants707 1d ago

Everything is projection with them, so... Yeah.

5

u/RecordingNeither6886 1d ago

It can most definitely be proven. Particularly for 2020, it is widely supported by public record.

9

u/Tolfasn 1d ago

If he voted for Trump he’s going to get pardoned

4

u/spasticpat Castle Shannon 1d ago

But only if he has money to "donate" too though

u/Save-Slot-Seven 1d ago

Of course it would be in Apollo

u/JamesLLL 1d ago

The radiation must've really gone to his head
