There were something like 80 million votes for Old Joe. A person who largely decided not to campaign. A frail, old white guy who has run for president several times and never generated more than one percent of the democrat votes before dropping out of those races. But suddenly he receives more votes than Reagan, JFK, Clinton, Obama or anyone who ever ran? LOL. And not by a small margin. He exceeded Obama - a wildly popular and dynamic candidate - by something like 15 million votes. Was it "fraud"? Maybe not. But the change to mail in voting was a significant alteration of the election process.
Those changes demonstrably favored Old Joe and he would have lost in a landslide if most most states had not used the pandemic as an excuse to fundamentally change the election process in a way that most favored the dems. Old Joe received 60-90% of the mail in votes. And the CDC and Fauci - those trusted "scientists" dems love so much - both confirmed that it was safe to vote in person. There was no health-related reason to change the established voting requirements. That was done for purely political purposes as were many decisions made during the pandemic. But that is water under the bridge. I've never seen winners cry so much. Old Joe won. Enjoy four years of nothing getting done, the economy collapsing under higher taxes, and rampant crime. When it is all over in 2024 just blame the failures on the republicans like Obama did.
Again, here Richard seems to accept it was probably not fraud but changing the rules before the election. Which they did change the rules before the election. Which I see no problem with. For one, they had valid reasons to change them, the pandemic. Yes, going to the polls is no more dangerous than going grocery shopping, assuming the lines aren’t too long. And secondly, making it more convenient to vote is something that I see as a plus. Particularly since voting at the polls is not equally challenging for everyone. It is generally more difficult in urban area where long lines are more common.
So, I don’t think Richard would disagree with me that in 2020, making it potentially equally convenient for everyone to vote allowed the Democratic candidate to do better than he would in a more typical election. Where we do disagree is that he seems to think of this as being a bad thing.
As an aside, I noticed that Richard Smith made 106 posts in December so far. It appears you had to make a large search to find anything that could be construed as being a conspiracy theory. And failed.
So, despite your attempt to shoehorn Richard Smith into the
Large-Secret-Enduring Conspiracy camp, he really doesn’t belong there. Instead, in our extremely small sample size, it appears that JFK LSE-CTers are more likely to be 2020 Election LSE-CTers than LNers. Which makes logical sense.
