Voter Fraud

The election process was changed this year. Many states mailed out ballots to everyone on their rolls. This did not take into account people who have moved or are dead. It also did not take into account that many people didn’t really want to spend the effort to vote, the election didn’t matter to them.

 Another thing not mentioned is that the state now has enough information on your ballot to know how you voted. In California there is a scan code on the envelope enclosed that id’s the voter. That is the important thing, they know how you voted. Scan the envelope and then scan the ballot. This circumvents the idea of anonymous voting. They know how you voted, they know who you are and where you live. 

 I can see where people may request a mail in ballot in order to participate in an election. But when the state issues every registered voter a ballot, it gives the owner of that ballot the right to sell it for profit. The right to vote is one to where you have to show up to vote. An absentee ballot is a certificate that you receive and can be sold to a third party. This new concept of absentee voting allows people to abuse the system. Your ballot can be turned into cash. $200 to $1,000 I have heard. 50 million raised in an election campaign can buy a hell of a lot of votes. 

 Notice that voting in person keeps dead people and people who have moved from voting. One person, one vote, limits voter fraud. Count the voters registered and then compare it to the votes cast, they should match. With everything done by mail, the party running the election process, has the power to determine the results. We depend on the people doing the counting being honest. And they may count the votes correctly, who is to say that the mail in voters were legit. Voting machines can be programed to count wrong, more ballots could be printed. With only 60 percent of the people voting in most elections, it wouldn’t take many invalid votes to turn an election. 

 The real problem not noticed, is if this happens enough times in one location, the losing voter after many elections gives up and stops voting. This could be what has happened in many cities in the country. Corruption is very profitable and the voter has no redress, all they get is a sticker that says “I voted.” You may have voted, but if the results can be changed by adding fictitious votes to the ballot box, have you really voted?

 I have a blank California ballot in my hands that was not submitted that was received at our house. How can we arrive at the conclusion that the election results are correct? I could have filled it out and mailed it in, and I am too honest to do it. It kind of sucks to be a nice guy. 

Postscript:
Usually a theft involves two people, the one who lost the item, and the one who stole the item. In voter fraud, the victim is the person running for office. And he is none the wiser that a crime has been committed. He can suspect that there was abuse, but it is very hard to prove.

Theoretically possible, I guess. How did you come by this rumour, and how widespread is it? Presumably useful only in swing States - and how would a big vote purchase program be kept quiet?

We did hace a scandal some years ago in local elections in Birmingham, England - community leaders intercepting of gathering up voting forms - https://www.birminghammail.co.uk/news/local-news/voting-fraud-probe-after-sparkbrook-103647 - 'around 30 per cent of all postal votes cast were rejected.'

I recall BF Skinner in 'Wladen Two' advocating the use of block voting by his theoretical communes.

Hi Sack

Here is a link to the post https://www.twincities.com/2020/09/28/project-veritas-video-alleges-widespread-voter-fraud-in-mn-with-u-s-rep-ilhan-omar-at-head/

I had specific proof of a Ponzi scheme being run several years back and even had tickets to attend it. I told the police and they informed me that they were not equipped to handle that sort of crime and could do nothing. Someone at the state level did arrest the group in question, several months later.

Voter fraud is an invisible crime. It is the voter who chooses what to do with his ballot. It is his property. Voting in person eliminates the fungibility of ballot.

Hi Sack


One pound one vote might work, if it relates to taxes already paid by that voter. I don't see how you could finance the government by charging for votes. Most people wouldn't vote and save their money. It would be a 50/50 chance you could lose just buying a vote in a-two-horse-race.

The real voters in the US would be the drug companies. Old people like me are captive customers.
