By non-Trumpists they mean RINOs like Liz Cheney and Romney.

Yes, there are tons of Democrats here. I've yet to hear of any of them being told they've "already voted."

Yes. It's the Met gala.
Thanks. Duly noted. I consider the source. No worries.
That was the headline. Did you read the whole article?

https://ktla.com/news/local-news/more-s ... -persists/Voters from across the political spectrum expressed frustration and dismay as they reported having trouble casting a ballot at a Woodland Hills vote center in Tuesday’s recall election, though a county elections official said the problem had been addressed. Several voters from both the Republican and Democratic parties said they tried to drop off vote-by-mail ballots or vote in person at the Disabled American Veterans 73 vote center on Tuesday, only to be told they had already voted. As a result, they were offered provisional ballots, which are counted after registered voters who cast them are confirmed not to have already voted. Nonetheless, some voters were unhappy with the situation.
Perhaps not. But there are enough Republicans in Donny's thrall that his supporters win most Republican primaries. They have enough control over the party to punish people like Rep. Cheney for doing the right thing. And yet when Trump peeps win primaries, pretty much all remaining Republicans are willing to vote for them in the general election. That's pretty much just as bad.Beebs52 wrote: ↑Tue Sep 14, 2021 5:57 pmWho says? You're assuming all repubs are Trump peeps. Just stop it.
Burst my bubble? I saw this newscast a few days ago and had heard nothing since. At the time, the people interviewed were Republicans. It sounded very suspicious, but I specifically said, "I've yet to hear of any of them (Democrats) being told they've 'already voted.'"silverscreenselect wrote: ↑Tue Sep 14, 2021 10:05 pmSorry to burst your bubble here....Estonut wrote: ↑Tue Sep 14, 2021 7:10 pmYes, there are tons of Democrats here.

So it looks like people were affected regardless of party. The difference probably is that Democrats just went about their business and cast provisional ballots while Republicans started screaming election fraud to Fox News.
Fox News (along with Newsmax and OAN and the other right-wing sounding boards) is where disgruntled Republicans go with any "evidence" of election fraud because they know that it will get widespread, unquestioning coverage. Your buddy Larry Elder has already been pushing claims of election fraud.
Liz Cheney has one of the most conservative voting records in Congress. So did Justin Amash, who was the only Republican to support Trump's first impeachment. She isn't a moderate trying to placate voters in a swing district. To say that she is a "RINO," as BiT did, implies that the test of being a "real" Republican is whether you but the Trump nonsense or not.
Regardless of what Larry Elder said before the election, he has now conceded defeat. I'll give him credit for that.silverscreenselect wrote: ↑Wed Sep 15, 2021 6:29 amYour buddy Larry Elder has already been pushing claims of election fraud.
Oh, honey. You've had far more patience with the willfully stupid than I.
You said, "Curious that this "equipment issue" has only affected Republicans." The article says, "Bender added that, to her knowledge, many of those affected by this issue are self-identified Republicans, and she’s suspicious." That's "many", not "all" or "most".Estonut wrote: ↑Tue Sep 14, 2021 9:35 pmActually, I learned both words well before I started school.

Given the frequency with which Estonut criticizes posts for failing to distinguish between "most" or "many" Republicans and "all" Republicans, this strikes me as an entirely appropriate criticism. --BobBob Juch wrote: ↑Wed Sep 15, 2021 9:03 amYou said, "Curious that this "equipment issue" has only affected Republicans."
