Wonder just how much fraud really happened in these last elections. Zero votes for Kamala? That's as SWBTATTReg Wednesday #5

So how do you know the other results are "lawful "? questionseverything Wednesday #6

Because zero votes is a statistical impossibility. Basso8vb Wednesday #34

I agree the zero is impossible but the same machine that produced the zero produced the other results questionseverything Wednesday #37

I believe a targeted digital attack is possible. returnee Wednesday #50

Off course a targeted digital attack is possible but questionseverything Wednesday #62

I'm reading on Politifact that it was a Hasidic Jewish district and that they Wingus Dingus Wednesday #8

The candidate who instigated the probe says she has affidavits from people who voted in the district Prairie Gates Wednesday #12

It's not entirely Hasidic. It's right over the Tappan Zee bridge. There are Hasidic pockets around Pomona, but Scrivener7 Wednesday #15

They're not talking about all of Rockland county. Just one district, which had 554 total voters. thesquanderer Wednesday #110

OK. Thanks. Scrivener7 Wednesday #124

I know people in Rockland who voted for Harris/Walz. returnee Wednesday #52

See post #110. It was not Rockland county, it was just one small district within the county. (nt) thesquanderer Wednesday #111

you've got your work cut out for you but thank you for re-iterating this (nt) cadoman Wednesday #150

How come when I brought this up a couple of weeks ago, Bluetus Wednesday #134

Rockland County is roughly 31.4% Jewish, and they are NOT all Hasidic, although the Hasidic community is significant! markpkessinger Wednesday #78

I think the confusion lies in the fact that Harris DID get votes in that county as a whole, but Wingus Dingus Wednesday #82

See post #110. It was not Rockland county, it was just one small district within the county. (nt) thesquanderer Wednesday #116

Some of the wards that voted heavily or almost unanimously for Trump also voted heavily for Gillibrand's opponent. onenote Wednesday #104

Ah see Hornedfrog2000 Wednesday #16

The OP is deceptive: it's not Rockland County as a whole, but one voting district in Rockland County Prairie Gates Wednesday #44

No Harris votes in Rockland County definitely points to cheating. But what an odd County to choose. It wouldn't Scrivener7 Wednesday #17

It's not the whole county, but one district Prairie Gates Wednesday #45

Even more unlikely. District 17 encompasses all of Rockland county, all of Putnam county, some of Westchester Scrivener7 Wednesday #64

The district in question isn't Congressional 'district 17' -- its Rockland County district of Ramapo onenote Wednesday #99

OK. Thanks. Scrivener7 Wednesday #123
