Again, there was no blue wave, the only thing that gave Biden the win were an unusually high record of votes for him, in a few select counties, in a few select swing states...

counties like:

Seventy-three percent of Joe Biden’s 126,649 vote margin gain in Pennsylvania, compared to Hillary Clinton’s performance in 2016, came from the seven counties and one city in Pennsylvania that received more than $18 million from the Mark Zuckerberg-funded Center for Technology and Civic Life (CTCL) “safe elections” project.

The CTCL provided more than $18 million in “safe elections” grants between September 1 and October 31 to at least seven counties and one city in Pennsylvania: $10 million to the City of Philadelphia, $2.5 million to Chester County (suburban Philadelphia), $2.2 million to Delaware County (suburban Philadelphia), $2.05 million to Allegheny County (Pittsburgh), $863,000 to Centre County, $474,232 to Lancaster County, $471,000 to Berks County, and $148,000 to Erie County.

Ninety-three thousand two hundred and ninety-three votes (93,293), or 73.6 percent of Biden’s 126,649 vote margin gain in 2020 Pennsylvania, compared to Hillary Clinton in 2016, came from these seven counties and one city.

...

Of the eight local governments in Pennsylvania that received grants from CTCL, only one–the City of Philadelphia–saw a decline in Joe Biden’s electoral results versus Donald Trump’s in 2020 compared to Hillary Clinton’s electoral results versus Donald Trump’s in 2016.

remember that time it was argued that the said $10,000 in Russian FB ad spending swayed the 2016 election?

2-months is being generous. He is showing all the signs of dementia.

In what way did Floyd County, GA termination of their election director symbolize the protagonists struggle?

and how does this relate to Broward County FL?

Republicans gained or kept state congressional seats in places they were supposed to lose.
THERE WAS NO BLUE WAVE.
Trump got the highest percentage of the non-white vote of any Republican in 60 years.
Trump got the largest number of votes of any sitting President ever.
But you believe that Joe Biden legitimately won the presidency. Come on, man...

You should watch this https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sq7TeUJwQD4
It's not like there are separate ballots. You can vote for Republicans and vote against Trump. Isn't it plausible that people (like me) still voted for Republicans down ballot but want to see Trump removed? If the ballots are fraudulent, why was there no blue wave?

Collette's mother indeed was symbolic of a larger class struggle considering the reason for the French revolution was poverty. Jean Valjean was a symbol for those who committed crimes due to poverty, and also suffered injustice in the hands of the police.

I answered this twice.

They were only dumped into select states, in select democratic controlled counties, to bump biden over the edge for the state.

I'm starting to think that you actually believe this.

Like, you're not being satirical, you are actually, genuinely claiming that a coordinated effort took place, across numerous states, to fraudulently increase the vote count reported for Biden, either by introducing forged ballots into the counting system, or by directly altering or mis-stating the results of the count.

Am I right on that?

I believe it as much as democrats believe that Trump colluded with Russia in order to steal the 2016 election.


The DNC is the most wretched hive of scum and villainy. We must be cautious.

me too, that would be.... disappointing

The unfortunate situation is that once again I think people were in a position where they had to vote against a candidate as opposed to voting for a candidate. South Park nailed it, every election is between a Douche and a Turd Sandwich.

Really?

Not even a for the clever meme?

Independent fact-checkers have confirmed that it was funny.

No, because you missed the point and didn't find the correlation.

But only for the Presidential vote, and not ousting McConnell or any of the races that would actually matter in terms of getting bills passed.

Is it not reasonable to believe that Democrat controlled counties vote heavily Democrat? Pretty sure it would be a lot more eyebrow raising if these Democrat controlled counties went Republican.
