it's kinda hard to cheat on election day in person. you suggesting if the Demonrats are doing it it's ok is proof the Demonrats don't care how they win, as long as they DO win.maineman » 16 Jul 2023, 11:13 am » wrote: ↑ If I have misread you, I apologize, but it seemed to me that you were part of the group of people here who refused to accept the fact that the Democratic party was more agile in modifying their GOTV efforts to optimize turnout during a pandemic and that was the reason Joe got more votes than Trump. There was not some massive malevolent criminal conspiracy to steal the election away from Trump.
You were totally unaware of the giant shift in tactics by the Democrats because you were not targeted by their GOTV plan. Anyone they knew was a registered Democrat or who had contributed to any Democratic candidate in the past, or who had expressed support for Democratic candidates in the past, or who had expressed support for traditionally Democratic issues in the past - such as Planned Parenthood or Sierra Club or Greenpeace... or was a union member.... and on and on...the list of names was huge, and they all got called. The first call was to confirm they still were going to vote for Biden, and thereafter, on a damn near weekly basis to check on 1.) whether they had gone to the SECSTATE website and ordered their absentee ballot and then 2.) had they filled in their ballot and then 3.) had they checked online to make sure their ballot had been received. Seriously... my wife and I were called literally DOZENS of times. We voted early because we were both retired and we really didn't have much going on socially in the midst of COVID so it was easy to do... AND... it finally got the phone bank to stop calling us and interrupting our evenings! And it was easy. And we DID get reminded, and that worked. We didn't have to rush around on election day, and neither did the millions of other democrats who were subjected to the same full-court press GOTV onslaught and voted safely and leisurely from their living rooms or kitchen tables.
I'm gonna go out on a limb and just suggest that maybe you didn't get that sort of non-stop attention from the GOP, and, even if you had, that focus was not on getting you to vote early, but to commit to voting on election day, and, if not you, for many other folks, unforeseen events happen on election day that just make voting difficult... maybe even too difficult.
We didn't steal anything. We just switched our game plan...AND YOUR PARTY COULD HAVE EASILY DONE THE EXACT SAME THING.
BTW; you shouldn't have voted so many times and they wouldn't call you so often.
