questioning the f-word
it looks like the word votefraud has been highjacked by the perpetrators. Perhaps we should be more specific. For ex. electronic vote-theft is computer data forgery, a sub-category of cybercrime.

1. This is an old debate on DU. "We" prefer election fraud or election theft.
It's clear that voter fraud is a term deflecting the blame from the Republi-Nazi traitors to the voter. Again, this is not a new issue here.

Welcome to DU.

2. My meme that just happens to rhyme is...
Computers count the vote so no one can see
They say Bush won, I say prove it to me

4. Senor fries: It's our f'ing word. We'll keep it. They're desperate.
That's why they're doing this. We have them on the run. First of all, if the CM covers them, that opens the door to us and we crush them. Second, CM won't look too kindly on much of what they have to say as truthful after all the lies (even CM gets a belly full). Third, well, I forget ... but it's our word, long time to get it in the public mind, even if it's just a shadow, for now. ps. see tomorrows ERD daily news thread. Even the Toledo Blade is using our lingo: Electile Dysfunction, a DU original.

You're right in your direction, however, because we need more catch phrases. What do we have now: "election fraud" - "stolen election" - "hacking the vote" - must e more.

I've been pushing that one for a while. Got a little sloppy.
