O'Keefe and election fraud: the shithead proved it won't work.

He and his minions attempted 14 acts of voter fraud in my state and got caught once. Ignoring the fact that this was a conspiracy to commit a felony, what this demonstrates is that an organized effort to commit voter fraud through misrepresentation will be detected and uncovered in fairly short order. There is no voter fraud because that is not how a person who wanted to steal an election would go about doing it, if they actually wanted to succeed and not get caught.

Maybe we need to realize that they're simply wired wrong from the get go.

As you then say. And as you are well aware, there are many other ways to steal an election. Retail won't work, faking single votes is almost impossible and of no consequence to results. Wholesale can work, if you program the machines or control the counting process.

O'Keefe proved that if you want to steal an election, this is not the way to do it. He is too stupid to understand that, or he knows that nobody in the media will call it out.

in the name of so-called journalism.

"So, yes, filing that was technically fraud, but we were just showing how easy fraud is!"

Um, no, dude. You're straight up breaking the law. Your intentions are irrelevant.

What was that number of vote flipping and exact number of votes per win with several pugs. Same tally, but can't remember the number of votes. Fucking cheaters!
