Syrian President Bashar al-Assad won a fourth term in office with 95.1% of the votes in an election that will extend his rule over a country ruined by war but which opponents and the West say was marked by fraud.

Assad’s government says the election on Wednesday shows Syria is functioning normally despite the decade-old conflict, which has killed hundreds of thousands of people and driven 11 million people – about half the population – from their homes.

Head of parliament Hammouda Sabbagh announced the results at a news conference on Thursday, saying voter turnout was around 78%, with more than 14 million Syrians taking part.

That’s nothing. Biden won the presidency by 99% of the media votes.

Looks like Syria runs their elections like California.

Fraudulent according to the Rats since they DIDN’T use vote by mail. There’s, like, no post office anymore.

We don’t get to question other countries corrupt elections any more. We are just as bad.

Assad attributes his win to the fine work by Dominion Voting Machines.

The elections in Syria are unaffected by the contributions of US billionaires, and the interference of the Dominion voting systems with their Smartmatic software.

The one big similarity between Syrian and American Soviet presidential elections is the results of both are counted by fascists. When the fascists count, the fascists always win.

Exactly. If Dominion interfered in their election, Ass-ad would still have won, but only narrowly.

Dominion's goal is to create plausible deniability along with delivering victories for the correct candidates. That's why Xi Dung's margin in the critical swing states was engineered to be razor thin.

Assad responded to the White House accusations with a terse, 4 word memo: “Glass Houses, Joe. KnowwhatImsayin?”

The media focused on the popular vote count with every election since I can remember. Still no numbers on tge 2020

What was biden v Trump?

80% fir Trump with Atlanta and Detroit pulling Biden through with suitcases full of dem votes?

Someone could do that count it would be imoo point reasive. It sure has been a secret

How many “reporters in the West” that decry Assad’s election victory, were jubilant over Biden’s election victory?

California? No matter. California was a given. It’s the crookedness in swing states that screwed up the 2020 election

I have a Syrian friend who some years ago related a joke that is often told in that country.

Evidently, the Presidential election was presented as a referendum. Assad was the only one on the ballot; voters were asked to choose “yes” or “no.”

After many years of dutifully voting “yes,” one Syrian man was suddenly infused with a spirit of defiance and resolutely voted “no.”

But when he got home, he started to waver. Now he was afraid the secret police or some other entity would come after him.

So he called up the Bureau of Elections or whatever they are called, and nervously told them he’d mistakenly voted “no” and would like to change his vote to “yes.”

“Don’t worry, sir,” the official on the other end of the line told him. “We did that already.”
