After its historic victory in the state of Saxony-Anhalt, the Alternative for Germany (AfD) party has dropped from 44.4 % of the vote to 43.8% after mail-in ballots were counted, with all other parties gaining abnormally from mail-in ballots. Attorney Dirk Schmitz called this a sign of "systematic manipulation".
German elections have been thought to be fairly secure, with mainly in-person same-day voting, photo ID requirements, and a Supreme Court ban on digital voting machines, as I explained to Ben Harnwell on The War Room.

However, Saxony-Anhalt saw a boom in mail-in ballots, making up one-quarter of all votes cast.
Originally, the AfD had taken 51% of in-person votes on Sunday. As mail-in ballots were counted beginning at 6 pm local time, all other parties gained, and only the AfD lost. Plagiarism expert Stefan Weber, who has identified numerous cheating academics, causing the Christian Democrat governor of the neighboring state of Thuringia Mario Voigt to lose his Ph.D., called these results "a sign of systematic manipulation", citing an analysis by attorney Dirk Schmitz published by alternative journalist Alexander Wallasch:
"51.20% for the AfD at the ballot box - but only 24.27% of the mail-in vote. A drop of almost 27%. In some places, the gap was even more dramatic: In Mertendorf, the AfD took 63.2 % at the ballot box, but only 24.5% of the mail-in vote - a difference of almost 39%. In the town of Hedersleben, 62.9% of in-person votes went to the AfD, but only 26.4% of the mail-in vote," Schmitz wrote. "In one district of Magdeburg, the AfD only got 5.5% of the mail-in vote, versus 41.5% at the ballot box (minus 36.0%). In Obhausen, the AfD received 24.8% of mail-in ballots versus 60.5% of in-person votes (minus 35.7%). In the town of Meineweh, the AfD received 27.9% of mail-in ballots versus 63.0% of in-person votes, a difference of 35.1%."
🇩🇪🚨‼️ MAIL-IN VOTING ANOMALY
EVERY PARTY EXCEPT THE AfD HAS MORE MAIL-IN VOTES THAN IN-PERSON VOTES!

Absentee. Big difference.
He requests an absentee ballot in a secure manner.
there is no place in the world that does not have voter fraud where leftists are present.
Did anyone from Los Angeles fly to Saxony-Anhalt to offer technical assistance?
You’re not alone.
I live in Washington state (100% mail-in voting). I agree with every word in your post.
Voting is like going to a casino. You may win the jackpot one day but it will never make up for all of the losses. The house always wins because the game is rigged.
This will just make the AfD more popular in future elections and lead to election violence.
The left has this down to a science.
“Late returns from Cook County…”
Germany, along with Britain, and France are long overdo for a nice, cathartic chimp out.
I don’t care very much what Germany does, but here in the US anyone tampering with voting integrity should receive a mandatory death penalty carried out publicly within 60 days.
This is treason, an attempt to over through the legitimate government.
In person, on paper. It’s the ONLY way to keep it reasonably honest...
So let be written, so let it be done...
I would argue that President Trump is NOT an anomaly.
Sure, the PTB are fully against him and are in semi-open sedition, but think of how he unites the left.
They literally have no platform than Orange Man is a big meany.
He is a wonderful distraction to cover their horrible agenda.
They WANT him there. They NEED him there.
And the GOP clearly doesn’t want that. Your representatives don’t really want your vote to count. You can see that clearly in Germany, but it’s no different here in the US.
Sure, there are old hanger-ons, especially in the Senate. But the old order is dying, no matter how much they struggle to keep control of power.
ICWYDT!
The AfD was NOT robbed of victory.
First of all, 44.4% was the projected result based on exit polls before one single vote was counted. A final result.6% below that is hardly concerning.
Second, for years now AfD has been pleading with their voters to vote in person. It’s hardly surprising then that they did exactly that which, of course, results in far fewer mail-in votes for AfD.
Besides, more people over sixty vote mail-in, and they are less likely to vote AfD.
There’s nothing “abnormal” about the result.
Very true.
Most probable the commies had been able to place their sympathizers among the vote counters. Old poison in new flasks…
