On Wednesday, a worrisome trend started to pick up on Twitter in the form of accounts tweeting alleged Hillary Clinton campaign ads, designed to look like her real tweets, telling people that they can avoid waiting in line because they can vote by text message. The story picked up steam with this tweet, which also protested Twitter’s refusal to remove the offending posts.

Reddit guys did that as a joke.

They also have ones on women being drafted (Hillary is for girls registering) and ‘stop the pot’ for Colorado (she’s against pot in her private speeches to drug companies).

I'm telling you, that Hillary really has ground game, doesn't she?

Now I'm hearing that she's got it set up so you can just follow her on Twitter, and if you retweet #Hillary2016 it will automatically record your vote for her!

So you can vote for Hillary from home by texting Hillary to 59925. It doesn’t say anything about being an official vote in the US Election, does it? You’d have to be pretty dumb to think that was the case, wouldn’t you?

No wonder the Democrats are all spun up.

Actually, many states offer that as an option for overseas citizens.

Bixenspan is just pissed that Hillary voters would be stupid enough to believe it, and he cites no US Code as to why it is illegal. That’s why he says “may be”. There are plenty of ways out of that.

Speaks volumes about her supporters if they fall for it.

What worries me is that the poll workers might actually receive the tweets and cast votes for them.

I was only joking, but voting by email is real?

Good grief.
