Sorry @HikerGuy83  I cut off my own post.  I do NOT excuse McConnell --- he is the architect of the defeats we're seeing.  Here's my post as it was originally meant to be --- 


No worries.

Mitch is really a pain the butt.

It’s essential that after monitoring her own corrupt election @katiehobbs get sworn in as governor and pass legislation making it a criminal offense to question the legitimacy of the 2022 election. To protect our democracy or something

@Peoples_Pundit

McCain era Republicans wrote these laws in Arizona. Not Democrats.

It used to be because they won older mail voters and wanted to secure their position.

Then, they fell their old asses to sleep . Now, they no longer control who counts the votes.

What happened comes with a simple explanation.  Now listen closely, for I do not want you to miss it.

THE ELECTION WAS FIXED.  DOESN'T MATTER IF THERE WAS A RED WAVE AND 80% OF THE PEOPLE VOTED REPUBLICAN, THEY HAVE ALGORITHYMS THAT FIX THE ELECTION.  NOT BY SOME BIG MARGIN, BUT JUST CLOSE ENOUGH TO FIX THE ELECTION WITH THE OUTCOME THEY ARE LOOKING FOR.

ELECTRONIC VOTING IS NOT SECURE.  THE ONLY SOLUTION IS MANUAL VOTING.  UNTIL THE REPUBLICANS FORCE THAT, ELECTRONIC VOTE FIXING WILL BE A PART OF OUR LIFE.

Again, George Soros did not buy the tabulating firms in the USA and Europe to ensure fair and free elections.  Wake the f*&^ up people!!!

The people in Russia believe they have fair and free elections because they are told so by media completely controlled by Vladimir Putin.  You think we are any different today from Putin's Russia?  Really?  Are you that stupid?

REVEALED: Top Maricopa County election official donated to far-left ‘resistance group’ PatriotTakes

On Monday it was revealed that top Maricopa County election officer Stephen Richer, who helped to oversee elections in Arizona, donated to the far-left "resistance group" PatriotTakes.

PatriotTakes is a hybrid pack that describes itself on Twitter as a group of "dedicated researchers monitoring and exposing right-wing extremism and other threats to democracy."

Data available on the Federal Elections Commission's website shows that Richer donated $40.00 in July of this year.

Previously, Richer had launched a PAC in 2021 to stop MAGA candidates. ...

Bias is a problem.  Violating equal protection is a problem.  Placing empty toner cartridges in election machines in Republican areas only is a problem.

If there was cheating, it really helps that DJT is flapping his gums about it. 

He's presented no real evidence and people see it as his MO. 

Consequently, any real cheating that might have taken place is a lot harder to highlite.

I've not seen anything that says there was cheating. 

But if it exists, DJT is hurting the ability of anyone to get it out in context.

True, but if there is or Lake pays for a recount, that needs to be investigated. A great opportunity for Ducey to step up.

More likely, a great opportunity for Ducey to stab us in the back again.  And a recount will probably show an even greater gap between Lake and Hobbs as we more to a new level of cheating.

That's where the state could jump in and take over the recount to investigate.

But I guarantee you he won't do it.

I don't understand what they are trying to say.

Republicans received 52 % of the vote ?

It's PAC money, not McConnell's personal stash.  The people donating to that PAC did so to help get Republicans elected to the Senate.  McConnell treated other people's money as his own personal stash.  Come to think of it, he does the same thing with our tax dollars.

We know with 100% certainty that it was corrupt just like it was in 2020. But YOU can never see what you refuse to look for.

Two democratic senators, democratic governor, and a democratic SOS......

First time since 1950.

But it can't be the fact that the AZ GOP is a frigging mess and that the messages (Lake was very good on the issues) can't get above the din of the election BS.

Add to that, the lingering presence of DJT (who just announced his 2024 candidacy) and you got what they asked for.

A slaughter.

Just leaning of many I know who voted for Hobbs after voting for Trump twice.

So tired of this constant idiotic conspiratorial thinking all it does is suppress turnout.

How so? When you know you need 1.25 to get credit for one, don't you feel compelled to try that much harder? To get enough votes in to overwhelm the cheater's point spread?

Being complacent about the outcome might suppress turnout, but knowing you will need as many votes as you can get would have the opposite effect.

How so? When you know you need 1.25 to get credit for one, don't you feel compelled to try that much harder? To get enough votes in to overwhelm the cheater's point spread?

Being complacent about the outcome might suppress turnout, but knowing you will need as many votes as you can get would have the opposite effect.



Instead of just talking about it, Lake appears to be pulling together a team to look for it. 

I think that is great.

If she finds something, it will be an interesting time.

If she does not....what then ?

Do we get to bury it for at least this cycle ?

Two democratic senators, democratic governor, and a democratic SOS......

At the same time, the GOP flips two house seats.  Go figure.
If a political party does not have its foundation in the determination to advance a cause that is right and that is moral, then it is not a political party; it is merely a conspiracy to seize power.     -Dwight Eisenhower-

"The [U.S.] Constitution is a limitation on the government, not on private individuals ... it does not prescribe the conduct of private individuals, only the conduct of the government ... it is not a charter for government power, but a charter of the citizen's protection against the government."     -Ayn Rand-

Jim Jones was a socialist Democrat.

Finchem won't concede. 

I don't think he helps Lake's situation any.

And there are a lot of GOP who are not sympathetic. 

I hope Lake can get this moving fast.

We all need to see what's been looked at and why.

The article didn't slam her near hard enough.

So long Nancy.  The only reason I'll miss you is that they might put someone with a brain your place and make our lives harder.

If anyone deserved to buried in stupidville, TN.....it's Nancy Pelosi.

Not proof positive, but very strong circumstantial evidence--and definitely cause to question the veracity of totals presented in Maricopa County.

Seventeen Techniques for Truth Suppression

Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.
