I couldn't say one way or the other if there was vote fraud, interference, or incompetence in the midterm elections sufficient to change the results.
But I can freely opine that, for a large and growing number of the citizenry, the faith in the integrity of elections in this country has declined once again. The elections themselves lost.
Both the left and right have been vocal "election deniers." It didn't help, but the real issue has been how the elections have been conducted by the governments involved.
For many people it seems to be a welcome development. This way everyone who voted can claim victory even if their choice happens to lose the election. Just as your favorite football team never actually loses, it’s just the bad calls by the referees that caused the score to be unsatisfactory.
I'm happy not to identify myself with either the right or the left. And I'm not disillusioned by crooked elections because I grew up in Chicago where it has always been a given. So it never occurred to me to believe in the delusion that it was on the up and up. I vote anyway. Go figure.
My only boast is that I can say I was an early adopter of election denial. It wasn’t a left/right thing for me. It was just recognizing reality in Chi-town.
Maybe reality is the illusion? Let’s take a vote.
And apparently, and discussions comparing "ballots" versus "votes" is being targeted by the 'censors'.
Marc Elias says they were "the most secure elections ever"!!
