Maybe they weren't dumb enough to be this obvious in other spots. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 4 child comments replies: [–] rumba@lemmy.zip 4 points 1 year ago Ideally, you start demanding recounts But I can't imagine that votes are properly taken care of after the fact especially in this case. But then if we find mass wrongdoing in counts, now it's a court thing, It goes to SCOTUS. Are they going to side with him? Frankly, there's no way.

Orders from above how to it, and this one person or area may have just fucked it up. So these people would probably fuck things up again, but people at a different poll could do it properly. permalink fedilink source parent
