” “every ballot is properly counted and accounted for. That’s not ‘bizarre,’ that’s DEMOCRACY.””

every Ballot cast by a US citizen or just every ballot added into the system of ballots to be counted any where or time along the counting process?

lies of omission, dems seem real good at it.

>>Alex Padilla, the state’s top election official, fired back at Ryan on Twitter, saying the state makes sure “every ballot is properly counted and accounted for. That’s not ‘bizarre,’ that’s DEMOCRACY.”

1946
“A community is low on a ‘Respect’ scale if common courtesy is withheld from large groups of people on account of their political attitudes.”
“...in a downright despotism opposition is dangerous whether the despotism is official or whether it is unofficial...”

“...and now let’s see how we spot the 2nd of the signs of true democracy - SHARED POWER...”

“...More specifically you can say that power is shared wherever regular popular elections are authorized and are actually held. There is shared power wherever get out voluntarily and vote. And if they can vote without interference or pressure from anybody.”

“A community rates low on the ‘Information’ scale when the press, radio, and other channels of communication are controlled by only a few people and when citizens have to accept what they are told.”

“See how a community trains its teachers”
“...these students are being taught to accept uncritically whatever they are told. Questions are not encouraged.”

“And if books and newspapers and the radio [and facebook and youtube and...] are officially controlled the people will read and accept exactly what the few in control want them to. Government censorship is one form of control. The newspaper that breaks the government censorship rule can be suspended. It is also possible for newspapers and other lines of communication to be controlled by private interests...”

Democracy (Encyclopedia Britannica film, circa 1946)

“The newspapers of a real democracy meet these tests...”

Newspaper checks.
1. Balance of coverage
2. Disclosure of source
3. Competence of staff
