Title: Trump army' planning to flood polling stations with red
Post by: ABX on October 27, 2016, 06:27:18 pm
Quote
Here is an idea (now becoming a MOVEMENT!) to counteract voter fraud on election day: We are asking that everyone who intends to vote for Donald Trump should wear red when they go to the polls.”

He explained: “That way, if everyone there sees (let’s say) 80 percent of the people in attendance wearing red and the vote (magically and mystically) comes out in Hillary’s favor, the whole world will know there were evil shenanigans going on. We’ll have the proof of HOW people voted! RED RED ON VOTING DAY!”

Trump's supporters have morphed into him:  they never think anything through.

This will show nothing.

Wait, are you saying that picture they are passing around as an example is of a Communist march and what they are described is right out of the CPUSA playbook?  And they are still passing it around by the thousands?

Shocked I tell you, shocked...

Other than they are being trolled with this, the other reason that is a bad idea is if a bunch of people show up at the polling place at the same time, color coordinated like this, it could be looked at as electioneering (attempting to influence the vote at the polls) and they all could be kicked out and prevented from voting.

The Red Army. Great. Another leftist visual that will now forever be associated with 'conservatives' because of leftist Trumpists claiming to be something they aren't.

They sure are determined to destroy conservatism in whatever way they can.

I doubt that just showing up to vote wearing anything red (absent the MAGA hats, etc.) would get anyone kicked out and or prevented from voting.  However, a large number of people wearing red and hanging out outside of the polling place and doing things like taking pictures of or harassing or following voters not wearing red, or conducting their own unofficial pre or post-vote polls – yes those might get some folks into trouble.

And the whole idea is stupid anyway. It presumes that everyone voting for Trump gets the “memo” and will know to wear red and that anyone not voting for Trump will know not to wear red.

So what happens if some self-appointed Trump “Poll Watcher” stands outside of my precinct from opening to closing and counts the number of people wearing anything red and then compares that to the number of votes cast for Trump and claims ELECTION FRAUD!!!. “I counted 500 people wearing red but you only recorded 450 votes for Trump!”

Of course I’m sure it wouldn’t work the other way, say he counted 500 people wearing red yet 600 votes for Trump. What is he going to do?  Tell the election judge that they over-counted the Trump votes by 100 and that they should be counted for Hillary?

I already have my outfit for election day picked out. I’m wearing all black.

Someone needs to write a book based on the Trump Army & name it Making Enemies and Repelling People or From Primary to Election Day: How Not To Conduct a Presidential Campaign.
