CBS: Can Republicans Win this North Carolina Seat Without Cheating?
Newsbusters ^ | 09/10/2019 | Nicholas Fondacaro

Posted on 09/11/2019 5:26:42 AM PDT by DFG

Tuesday was the night North Carolina’s ninth congressional district would finally decide who would represent them in the House. A consultant for the 2018 GOP candidate marked incomplete absentee ballots for his candidate, causing the results to be thrown out. Despite a new GOPer running, the CBS Evening News took that bad actor and used him to smear all Republicans and suggested the true question the election would answer was whether the GOP could win without cheating.

After failing news anchor Norah O’Donnell pitched the race as a “possible preview for 2020,” correspondent Dean Reynolds began the report by declaring: “The big question in the special election here today is whether the Republicans can hold onto this traditionally Republican seat without cheating.”

Thank you! I just woke up and was searching for the results here and all I find are eeyore remarks by people. This is a real victory after being told all day yesterday that the Dems had it in the bag. Congrats to the winners and to President Trump.

A Democrat was running, therefore there was cheating.

Yet the Republican won, or so I heard.

Whenever a Democrat operative brings up cheating (while implying that Republicans routinely cheat), we should be saying, “Yes, cheating is a huge problem! So you are on board with anti-vote fraud measures such as voter ID, paper trail for ballots, strict adherence to poll hours, not accepting “found” ballots after the election, etc. Right?”

I’ll bet that the DemocRAT operative will answer by claiming that those tangible measures to stamp out vote fraud will “disenfranchise” minority voters, and that they don’t address the “real” fraud.

The media seems to “feel” that Republicans cannot win any elections without cheating.

************************************************************

B.S. The media knows full well how to say things they know are out right made up allegations. The media does not “feel” or “think” or “believe” the lies they tell.

When you say they “feel”, its like you’re saying the media is being sincere and truthful. That would only be correct if they actually had any integrity. They don’t.

Would it be correct to say Goebbels “felt” a particular way. How would anyone know how or what Goebbels “felt”? Today’s media are in the same integrity class as “Goebbels”, albeit superior when it comes to propaganda.

Well, not so fast.

The reason for the election was because the actual election in 2018 was said to have been fradulently won by the Republican.

The democrats have an actual fraud accusation win they can taught

The Rats got away with grand theft in 18 and nothing was done about it. This one GOP win was a little dodgy so it got tossed and we had to do a do over. Point being the GOP brings marshmallows to a gun fight and if Trump doesn’t see this they WILL steal 20. The other thing is we’ve been hearing for a week this was going to be a nail biter based a numerous polls.

The Dems & the MSM were sure NC elections were a referendum on Trump & MAGA, AND portended 2020 elections!

Who knew Democrats were that prescient?

Republicans won decisively. They reduced Democrats hold on the House and are armed and ready for 2020.

The whole feminist staff at CBS is failing, from zoo zoo yang who wants to be able to be disrespectful to the President at pressers, to the blond gal at the WH, to extreme man hater and feminist activist NorDUH O'Donnell, to Gayle, thank you Oprah for my job, King.

What a pant load.

I noticed that the Today Show completely skipped reporting on the NC special elections this morning.

Meanwhile, in Cartelfornia, DEMOCRAT vote fraud has been legalized...

This is why CBS News is trending down. Before the change in anchors, CBS News was fairly balanced. Now, it is marching 8n the footsteps of MSNBC.

Yep, I really miss Edward R. Murrow...................

Yep. The NC results here are encouraging though. The ‘rats need to go from flippin’ states to flippin’ burgers.

DEPOPULTE Clintons, criminals, d’rats, deceivers from the body politic. It might take some time, but things do get better.

If I remember local news well enough, I don’t think the State and Federals are through dictating to us how our congressional districts are mapped are drawn. A little gift from the Civil War era that keeps on giving.

And you know that if the rats had won their orgasmic coverage would be seemingly endless.

Does CBS deserve the right to live?

They are already dead to me. Does that count?

CBS was fairly balanced before Deborah? Really? I sure didn’t think so.

The dems are developing a strategy of never acknowledging defeat. Al Gore started in that direction, Hillary Clinton followed up on it by delegitimizing Trump, and Stacy Abrams has boldly come out and proclaimed herself as the real winner of the Governors race in Georgia and said that there is no need for democrats to ever concede or acknowledge defeat. I suspect that the dems in NC will challenge the GOP victory and the dems will continue their campaign of delegitimizing Trump in 2020 as well.

Vote fraud is no longer necessary in California. The Democrats/Leftists who control the state have effectively made it unlawful for anyone other than a hardcore America-hating Leftist to appear on the ballot ... to run for elective office.
