Dead people can’t complain.
No one came in and confessed huh.
Well, that solves it. /s
Me thinks they protest too much. Sounds like CYA.
well, it is true that dead people did not vote in the election... how could they? they are dead... HOWEVER, a live person/live people ILLEGALLY voted on dead people’s behalf...

Their assertion is absolutely and irrefutably true!
But somebody voted their ballot.
Well we know they didn't do it personally...

It’s interesting to see that at about this time last week, the Newsweak (and others in INGSOC media) were basically laughing off any charges of voter fraud. Now, they are compelled to talk to someone like Al Schmidt and repeat his assertions verbatim in order to deny all of it.
Regarding Dead People Voting, here is Yahoo News’ refutation of this argument:
_____________________________________
In reality, 13 states actually count absentee ballots submitted by living voters who then die before Election Day, according to the National Conference of State Legislatures. So some of these so-called illegal votes are, in fact, perfectly legal.
Elsewhere, states prohibit counting the votes of people who are no longer alive. They do this in two ways: by disqualifying the early votes or mail ballots of residents who wind up dying before Election Day and/or by promptly flagging voters who have recently died so officials can cross-reference the voter rolls and discount any ballots cast in their name.
It’s a complicated, fast-moving process, and sometimes the human beings in charge of it make mistakes. One viral video, for instance, purports to show that “118-year-old ‘William Bradley’ voted via absentee ballot in Wayne County, Mich.” But what actually happened, according to Politifact, is that Bradley’s son — also named William Bradley and residing at the same address, but not born in March 1902 and definitely not deceased — voted with his own ballot, which officials then incorrectly attributed to his father.
“No ballot was cast for the now deceased Bradley,” Politifact explained. “This was a clerical error, not voter fraud.”
“It is important to note that some state registration systems indicate a missing date of birth by adopting filler dates, such as 01/01/1900, 01/01/1850, or 01/01/1800,” a 2017 report about duplicate voting from the Government Accountability Institute noted. “The vast majority of votes cast by individuals appearing to be over 115 years old had these three erroneous birthdates.”
Likewise, CNN recently checked 50 of the more than 14,000 names on a list of allegedly dead-but-registered Michigan voters making the rounds on Twitter and found that only five of them voted in 2020 — and all five are, in fact, alive.
None of the 37 actually dead people in CNN’s sample cast a ballot.
Whatever the exact figures, we’re talking about a small handful of ballots here — nowhere near the number Trump would need to catch up in Michigan, where he trails by about 147,000 votes, or Pennsylvania, where he trails by 45,000. A suit filed by a conservative foundation in Pennsylvania alleged that the state included 21,000 dead people on its voter rolls. But “the court found no deficiency in how Pennsylvania maintains its voter rolls,” according to a spokeswoman for the state attorney general’s office, and “there is currently no proof provided that any deceased person has voted in the 2020 election.”
And even then there’s no reason to think the dead favor Democrats over Republicans. In October, a man in Luzerne County, Pa. — a registered Republican — was charged with felonies after trying to apply for a mail ballot in his dead mother’s name. On Nov. 7, meanwhile, Trump campaign adviser Corey Lewandowski provided what he said was “one concrete example” of dead-voter fraud, pointing to an obituary for Denise Ondick of West Homestead in Allegheny County, Pa., who died on Oct. 22 — one day before election officials received her application for a mail-in ballot, according to online records from the Pennsylvania Department of State, and 11 days before the county received and recorded her vote. The Trump campaign has cited a single, similar incident in Nevada.
In an interview with the Philadelphia Inquirer, Ondick’s daughter said she helped her mother fill out an application for a mail ballot in early October, before the elder Ondick died of cancer, but that she could not explain why the ballot had been sent in after her mother’s death. Ondick’s husband said he couldn’t recall doing anything with the ballot.
Ondick’s daughter also said her mother had planned to vote for Trump.
Lewandowski said Ondick was “one of many” examples of dead-voter fraud the Trump campaign would be asking the courts to review. So far, the campaign has not revealed any additional details or mentioned any other specific cases.
Denial, not just a river in Egypt...
Of course they didn’t vote...they are DEAD! But someone voted in their name!
lawyerspeak
they always say things very, very carefully
Well the usual sources such as Snopes says Smoking Joe Frasier voting is a false claim, and they seem to make a reasonable rebuttal.
However, if that is the case why has the MSM not jumped on the band wagon showing that Rudy (Trump) is full of S to use that example? Same with Will Smith’s dad.
/Since being elected, Al has worked to modernize election operations, improve efficiency, and bring integrity to the election process./
And he still f%@ked it up like Democrats usually do! Purely by design of course.
Did Bill Clinton write that headline?
Slick wording.
No, the dead did not vote but some living person voted using the name of the deceased.
Fact check::: mostly true. /s
“Pennsylvania, Michigan Officials Say No Proof Dead People Voted in Election”
And a bunch of dead people backed them on that.
Their constituents were not available to comment
