The other day I wrote an email to my boss. I started with “Dear Sir,”

But it came out “Hey you stupid lazy incompetent loser how come you make so many stupid decisions?”

Darn typo.

Funny how the typos and glitcs always negatively affect republicans

Never seem to negatively affect democrats.

Its not funny at all. Its cheating. And people need to face maximum punishments for election fraud and stealing the elections from all of us, and damaging everyone’s faith in honest elections in this country.

I wonder what the punishment is for vote fraud in real democratic republics. Or China, for that matter.

Of course it does. It’s probably default and there are a number of people who will not notice.

Relax, it’s only a coding error. Like, for example:

If BALLOT_REPUBLICAN THEN

v_sumvote := v_sumvote +(0.9*v_votecast);

end if;

...

—counting complete

v_sumvote := to_int(v_sumvote);—clean up to whole number integer

china....

in china it depends, if the state has to cheat to get the right person to win, no punishment

if you won fairly and you aren’t the one the state wants to win, you don’t win

if you won by cheating and not the state’s choice, you’re dead
