I have noticed a trend where every single race just about seems to come within 5% no matter how pissed off the populace is. Even presidential races. Anything that isnt a clear victory like alabama and deep red states.
If you think about it logically shouldnt it be highly unlikely that the country is split nearly 50/50 every single time. I feel like at least half the close races should be 10 or 20 points different. We know they mess with the algos but is it possible it runs deeper than that?
There is a reason the races end up nearly a 52%-48% or 51%-49% each time.
Think about ADVERTISING revenue, MSM viewership... POLITICAL FUNDING and party donations. It's ALL about the money.
If elections were genuine, and ended up 70%-30%... then money for the losing party would dry up instantly. Who would spend money on the obvious loser? Money for the winning side would dry up too. Public wouldn't be interested in a lopsided race, so political ad spending and viewership would be down.
In order to keep the money flowing, they have to make the opposition look like it just barely lost... but there's still a chance next time of victory. It's like dangling an out-of-reach carrot in front of a horse. It the carrot is too far out of reach, the animal will get irritated and just ignore it. So long as it's just barely out of reach, there's always hope of achieving it, so the horse will keep trying.
Oh shit you are right... In the case of VA do you suppose the fix was in and then they didn't pull it? Or was it a landslide and they are fudging the final count? IDK. Tired of this crap want to see an audit.
BOTH parties are corrupt as hell... and BOTH parties are interested in keeping the money flowing to them.
One side wins and the other loses, obviously... but it's in BOTH party's interests to keep the money flowing by making it look like an extremely tight race. My bet is that every election in a big money state is affected by election cheating, particularly in terms of vote counting. If a candidate is clearly ahead and will win the election... they find "just enough votes" for the other candidate to have just barely lost.
Next election, rinse and repeat.
