Anyone who doesn't think the dems are systematically cheating is simply unaware of the situation on the ground in dem strongholds. I'm in Illinois, and I've done election law, actually beat a Mike Madigan attorney to get an independent black woman on the ballot near Chicago. She didn't win, but she knew the cheating techniques and beat most of them up front. What she couldn't overcome was the cultural intimidation. Fear-filled people would come up to her and say, in so many words, they would have supported her, but they need to keep their jobs, etc.
You combine that with the litany of other factors, such as low information voters, disinterested voters, otherwise intelligent but systematically propagandized voters, etc., and it's difficult to overcome if you don't address it head on. What we lack in this generation (not everyone, but enough to matter) is courage. If we don't face these realities and find creative and EFFECTIVE ways of dealing with them, we will be in for a long hard winter.
Again, they don’t have to cheat in VA. Virginia is home to tens of thousands of govt employees and a recent influx of something like 100,000 latinos who all vote overwhelmingly for the Democrats.
VA. is blue without any cheating. Sad but true.
