Vote fraud - an alternate view of how to steal an election

[Stinky The Clown]

Let me state right up front ...... this is nothing more or less than the product of my overly fertile, overly suspicious mind. No research. No Facts. Purely supposition.

Let's say you want to steal elections and not get caught. Let's also say that the only one you want to benefit from this election stealing is one guy and that one guy's pet interests. If your work at stealing this election can have benefit for future kindred spirits, fine. But getting your guy in is the short term goal.

Let's also say the elections to be stolen are four years apart, with one practice session in between the two big elections.

The first thing you do is rig the electronic voting machines to very simply count votes for the other guy and move them to your guy's column. No one expects such obvious, old fashioned cheating. All you need to do is deny it, do a few days of the ol' 'scam dance', and appeal to your friends on the Supreme Court.

Now, everyone knows damn well you stole it, but the Supremes cover for you in the singularly most convoluted opinion ever rendered by that formerly august body.

In the interim 'practice' election, you do two things. You repeat the same electronic vote stealing, but only in states where the local government is friendly to your cause. But you also use the more tried and true, old fashioned methods. A triple amputee US Senator is one of the casualties. You watch your opponent's ineffective fight and you laugh heartily. The chorus against electronic vote cheating rises in volume. It is now perfectly clear you stole it again.

Now for the big one. Round two. Everyone just **knows** you're going to cheat again. They watch. Yup. Anomalies across the country. Lots of evidence of vote stealing.

But ......................

Oh you smart devil, you. You just *know* they're all gunna cry foul and accuse you of electronic cheating. BBV becomes a dirty word. Lawyers are all over your ass.

And you just laugh even louder. You're now laughing so hard, you're crying. Belly-generated guffaws.

They look for cheating. They run every statistical model known to man. Yup. You cheated. And they know you cheated. They call for killing each black box with a bullet to its black electronic heart.

But you're too smart for them. You only made it **look** like there was electronic cheating. You even set up some screechy loon of a woman who raises tons of bucks to *prove* you cheated. To prove the black boxes stole the votes.

But you're way smarter than that.

This time, you faked 'em all out.

You cheated the old fashioned way.

And it was right under their noses.

So while they're calling you out on what you know is unprovable - because you really didn't do it - they make a big stink. And when they can't prove, you come off as the one's with the halo.

So not only does your guy get in, but you diminish even further the credibility of your opponents, making them a true laughing stock.

I am as convinced as anyone that the cabal stole the last three elections and that they did it by rigging the vote counting process. I see no reason yet to change this view. But this little work of pure fiction has as its only purpose the consideration of an alternative set of possibilities.

Discuss or discount as you see fit.
