With the right telling about voter fraud and stolen votes every few minutes, and the ACTUAL, found voter fraud that the right has done, I can agree.
To be clear, the right insists there’s voter fraud (individual voters intentionally voting in an illegal fashion, the primary mode of which is to fraudulently vote, or vote more than one time) which to this day remains exceedingly low in the US, though it definitely did see a bump - almost exclusively on the right - while simultaneously categorically ignoring gerrymandering and election fraud, which at this point is part of their party policy, but only when it helps themselves.
Well, I suppose if Trump loses the popular vote for a third time, but wins because of the Electoral Disfunction College, then yes.
You mean after the Supremes decided Bush vs. Gore for us back in 2000?
Nah, we don't have to wait. The US election system is broken by design and we've already seen the effects numerous times.
Fraud and cheating aren't the same things. Gerrymandering is cheating but totally legal.

Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!
Rules:
- Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.
Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.
Example:
- Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
- Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
- No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
- Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.
- No hate speech, slurs, celebrating death, advocating violence, or abusive language. This will result in a ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be banned without warning
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.
That's all the rules!
