The Dims cheated all day long and every time I called them on it, they said their precinct judge said it was okay.

That's why we need to get ahead of this before the day of the election.

We need a national effort to force consistent rules and enforcement.

We need a Conservative Poll Watcher movement.

You can also volunteer as a poll watcher. Contact your local GOP office and ask. Usually there is a one day training session and you are asked to take copies of your state’s laws that deal with voting with you the days you serve.

A good GOP County team will send you far behind enemy lines where the cheating usually takes place. Assume you will have assess to nothing. No wifi, cell service, water, bathrooms, nothing. It was my experience that GOP poll watchers were treated a little better than skunks at a picnic but with less respect.

... Dims cheated all day long and every time I called them on it, they said their precinct judge said it was okay. The final straw came when they wanted to take the ballot boxes to the final counting station without reconciling the number of ballots with the number of people who signed in, or the number of people who got the number slips when they registered. I insisted on a count and they reluctantly let me do it by myself. You know what happened to all those irregularities? Nothing. I was told to make a report to the Texas Republican Party and nothing came of it. This happened in a precinct where Lee was going to win anyway, but the Dims just cheat as a matter of habit. The total experience disgusted me, but I would do it again if asked.

I've dealt with democrat voter fraud too. Anyone who thinks these folks don't cheat is delusional or a press butt boy...

I recall a couple of elections ago, when there WERE some (R) poll workers, the Ds would NOT let them in. I can’t recall where it was though...

I won’t be one bit surprised if, in certain areas, voters will be followed into the booth and watch who they vote for...or, their vote will be checked and changed if they vote for GOP candidates.

“Is there a multitude of quotes from such folks or is this just anecdotal clap-trap?”

According to the Brookings Institute, voter turnout for the U.S. population has stayed relatively stable since 1980 (with the exception of a slightly higher turnout in 1992 and a dip in 1996 and 2000). While whites traditionally have the highest voter turnout relative to other racial groups, Blacks have higher voter turnout than Hispanics and Asians. In fact, Black voter turnout was within 1 percentage point of whites in 2008 (65.2% compared to 66.1%) and was actually higher than whites in 2012 (66.6% compared to 64.1%). In 2016, voter turnout for Blacks dipped to 59.6%. While that number was lower than whites (65.3%), it was still higher than Asians (49.3%) and Hispanics (47.6%).

Understand that those percentages are from their total number at 13% of the race determinations in the US by the census. So if 100% of the black voters got out and voted, it would still lead to 13% of the total vote if everyone else got out. They are tiny minority.

The black vote from the inner city is getting in, but James and people like him are trying to artificially produce more votes than have been the practice in the past specifically for this election.

He’s a basketball play folks. (And a goon) He barely has a high school diploma from Ohio and has never been educated at the adult level. He has no idea what the big picture is for the country other than since he’s a huge person, he can knock people out of the way going to the basket for big money. He’s an uneducated idiot.

Good stats.
Thanks.
Still looking for the connection to “fear” but you input is appreciated.

Here’s some numbers that answer this self important jerk. Sorry Pearl Clutchers - In March Trump had 2 million volunteers. How many does he have today? 4 million? 5 million? Lots of people working from home and looking for what to do. In Pennsylvania the Trump campaign has an office all 67 counties. Each office has 125 volunteers. That comes to just under 8400 volunteers for one state. In 2016 Trump won with just 50,000 volunteers nationally. In Florida he had just three offices for 67 counties.
BTW how do we know Trump has an army of volunteers? His campaign is knocking on ONE MILLION doors a week. Moreover, the foolish children running Biden’s campaign
are knocking at ZERO, NADA doors. They think they can make it up with phone calls and texts. Biden has not yet started to campaign in Pennsylvania. Democrat poll watchers? REALLY? Wait til lebron gets his dip in the cold water about the reliability of paid watchers versus volunteers who would and are doing the job for free.
