it's interesting how the whole thing about Dominion (diebold) rigging the elections for Bush has long since been forgotten...

I have always thought Gore ACCIDENTLY won Florida and therefor, the 2000 Election.
W had to be President for 9/11 to happen and Gore laid down like a dog and raked in climate hoax millions for his cuckery.
Jeb played a huge role, obviously.
Not entirely. I spent several months after the 2000 election getting Vermont to switch to all paper ballots. It's only three electoral votes, but it was my one successful contribution to preserving the Republic. Unfortunately, Sanders and Leahy still keep getting elected. I left VT 10 years ago; not sure if it's still free of voting (for you) machines.
Thanks for your efforts, but the crooks in Vermont have discovered other ways to keep the commies in power. You might have noticed that Leahy presided over the second impeachment.
Oh yeah. I don't know who is a more doddering fool, Leahy or Biden.
I think the real clue is the lack of campaigning..., Leahy never campaigns and Phil Scott didn't campaign last year. If they know they are in, why waste time around the peasants, eh.

The Onion calling out die bold in 2008
Spicy, I think you should make a post of it then! If you don't I will, that is really interesting. I thought the onoin was satire? or is that "not the onion"?
The Onion is satire. Not The Onion is a satirical take on The Onion, by providing stories that seem like they would be satire, but are not.
I've posted it several times, but it doesn't seem to be gaining the traction it deserves, so post it as often where ever you want.
What's amazing to me is that a lot of people are waking up and thinking "this isn't like the gold 'ol days where journalists actually did journalism". As it drives me nuts, "no the good 'ol days, was just the time when you were still asleep".
Dominion posts will be back in style soon I think!
"The first signs that the Diebold-made system in Volusia County was malfunctioning came early on election night, when the central ballot-counting computer showed a Socialist Party candidate receiving more than 9,000 votes
and Vice President Al Gore getting minus 19,000.
Another 4,000 votes poured into the plus column for Bush that didn’t belong there.
Taken together, the massive swing seemed to indicate that Bush, not Gore, had won Florida and thus the White House.
Election officials restarted the machine, and expressed confidence in the eventual results, which showed Gore beating Bush by 97,063 votes to 82,214.
After the recount, Gore picked up 250 votes, while Bush picked up 154. But the erroneous numbers had already been sent to the media."
CHECK THIS:
"What’s particularly troubling, Harris says, is that the errors were caught only because an alert poll monitor noticed Gore’s vote count going down through the evening, which of course is impossible.
Diebold blamed the bizarre swing on a “faulty memory chip,” which Harris claims is simply not credible.
The whole episode, she contends, could easily have been consciously programmed by someone with a partisan agenda.
Such claims might seem far-fetched, were it not for the fact that a cadre of computer scientists showed a year ago that the software running Diebold’s new machines can be hacked with relative ease.
The hackers posted some 13,000 pages of internal documents on various web sites – documents that were pounced on by Harris and others. A desperate Diebold went to court to stop this “wholesale reproduction” of company material.
By November of last year, the Associated Press reported that Diebold had sent cease-and-desist letters to programmers and students at two dozen universities, including the University of California at Berkeley and the Massachusetts Institute of Technology.
The letters were ignored by at least one group of students at Swarthmore College, who vowed an “electronic civil disobedience ”campaign."
My government teacher in high school made us watch a documentary about this, but since I was young and “my guy/team” won, I thought it was bunk. I now care more about an honest process and I don’t really like anyone from the 20th and 21st century outside of Calvin Coolidge and Trump. I’m losing regard for Reagan.
