    Don’t worry, I’m sure she’ll get a very harsh sentence, like those people with revoked voting rights who mistakenly think they can vote with provisional ballots in good faith and get tossed in prison for years because of it, right?

    Prosecutors said Taylor, a Vietnam native, approached numerous voters of Vietnamese heritage with limited English comprehension and filled out and signed election forms and ballots on behalf of them and their English-speaking children.

    Keep in mind he still lost his election.

    While it’s incredibly rare for fraud to affect more than a handful of votes, the frequency with which Republicans do it isn’t a coincidence. It’s a direct result of a party that is undermining democracy at every turn and—importantly—telling its voters that the other side is going to cheat anyway.

    It’s more of the “I am able to cheat, so everyone must be cheating” Logic that gets people into trouble. Then they realize that they are the only ones cheating

      everyone who supported Trump is an unrepentant cheater and liar in the rest of their lives… that’s why they love him… he is obviously a cheater and liar, and he always gets away with it… he’s their hero, and they will never give him up… trying to reason with them will never work… they want the world to be run by the cheaters and liars…

      @HuddaBudda @FlyingSquid He didn’t win a congressional seat, but he *did* win his County Supervisor seat, which tbh in some ways is worse (big fish, little pond). His wife committed fraud in both elections, and >
