And in the end it won't matter which party you identify with and it won't matter who you vote for, as long as Dominion voting systems is counting the votes.

Why in the world do we have a foreign company counting our votes in the United States? I don't give a fuck how much believer blabber they got on their page on their web page telling us what a legit straight up company they are fuck them they are foreign company they shouldn't be counting our votes.

Nobody has any idea who is behind this company.

To protect OurDemocracy®

The danger rests in the frightening possibility that wrong-vote installs literally-Hitler Trump and all the careful work that has brought this guilty and racist country to the threshold of global justice will have been wasted because of an illegitimate and unjust electoral mandate issued by an undeserving voting base.

We cannot trust the counting to domestic agents of terror who would deny a voice to the deserving guests that have been ushered in and have settled in sanctuaries established to harbor their voices whose desires must be heard above all others.

The fact that an impeached and convicted-felon even has a chance is laughable. If democrats had someone like that run, the republicans would have a field day shitting on them, but since it's their own, he can do no wrong.

If We can't trust our own people to count our votes how can we trust a foreign agent that is anonymous to count our votes?

We're going to revisit Trump's bullshit attempts to overthrow the will of the people in 2020?

Why the fuck are we doing that?

He's already lost every court case he brought, including sanctions against the lawyers for such dishonest litigation. Fox news payed out $787.5 million for defamation to Dominion. One of the defences they didn't try was claiming the bullshit was true. Because it was so clearly not.

Nobody has any idea who is behind this company.

It's got headquarters in Toronto, Ontario, Canada and Denver, Colorado, U.S.

It's 76% owned by Staple Street Capital LLC, which is based in New York, New York. You can read about who's who in that company on their website here: https://www.staplestreetcapital.com/Team

Oh great so a small group of people from New York City are handling the counting of our votes with no oversight.

Sounds like a perfect recipe for voter fraud.

You know that a recount uses the software-independent paper audit trail, right?

What the fuck do you possibly mean by "with no oversight"?

Sounds like a perfect recipe for voter fraud

Voter fraud? As in an individual going in and risking a prison sentence to make one vote when they're not eligible to vote?

Like what happens every election a negligible number of times, almost all people who were caught up in voter enrolment drives without understanding that their visa status doesn't come with democratic rights?

And recently, most of the intentional fraud from Trump voters following his advice to vote twice?

No. Dominion voting systems use multi-factor authentication.

Almost everything you ever say is intended to change the narrative from facts to fiction.

And you're doing a bang-up job at it

This is not The Daily Beast article btw, but a summary of washingtonstand.com article (which is a Questionable source according to Media Bias/Fact Check: https://mediabiasfactcheck.com/washington-stand-bias-and-credibility/).

So it's better to just ignore it (and its' title) and look at the original reliable source it links to: https://news.gallup.com/poll/651092/2024-election-environment-favorable-gop.aspx (which was already posted btw: https://saidit.net/s/politics/comments/eqft/2024_election_environment_favorable_to_gop/).

Yes, excellent point if we wish to discuss polls; that differs considerably from 'more Americans are Republicans....'

The recent Gallup poll has of course kickstarted the usual round of click bait in the various news media, perhaps by design by Gallup (who also profit from the numerous visits to their website). It confirms at least that there were 3% more people responding to polls (who have nothing better to do) who claim their "party identification and leaning" is now Republican (hence not necessarily Republican). What's the margin of error in most polls? 3%?

A recent Pew poll notes 1% more Dems or Dem leaning: https://www.pewresearch.org/politics/2024/04/09/the-partisanship-and-ideology-of-american-voters/

More voters shifted to Republican in April 2024, according to the NYT:https://www.nytimes.com/2024/04/09/us/elections/party-identification-democrats-republicans.html

A combination of the latest polls indicates that there are 2.3% more Dems: https://projects.fivethirtyeight.com/polls/generic-ballot

Does any of this show a notable shift in those leaning toward a specific partisan position? I don't think so. At best, it seems Gallup found additional Republican-leaning voters in their recent survey, which differs from all other recent surveys of partisan-leaning groups. The result is that both of the major parties should be very worried about their candidates' chances and must encourage voting.

But the dead and illegals still outpace Americans, as well as cheat by mail repeat voters and harvesters

That's what happens when they told you for 4vyears trump was the worst only for the Biden admin to be far worse. Americans are fed up with the demoncrats

The Democrats are to blame for this, Bidenomics forced a 20% inflation and caused https://files.catbox.moe/96uix4.jpg the prices of food to go up so people can't afford to eat. Starve a nation for two meals a day they can't afford and they go to the other party. Starve them for three meals a day and they will start a Revolution.

Democratic presidents have overseen much better economic growth than Republican ones recently.

... data show that the economy has performed much better during Democratic administrations.

Economic performance is stronger when Democrats hold the White House

New report finds that the economy performs better under Democratic presidential administrations

Covid stimulus did overheat the economy, but Bidenonomics has brought in under control. The annual inflation rate for the United States was 2.5% for the 12 months ending August.

Starve a nation for two meals a day they can't afford and they go to the other party.
