Is there a prevailing RW opinion about electronic voting machines? |
|
My initial guess is that they don't see it as affecting them in any way - in other words. that it's our problem, not theirs.
I would like to think that some of the more enlightened ones have a glimmer that this could affect them too, if not now, then in some theoretical future.
At the very least, I wonder if there's a little concern about tomorrow's election. That should the GOP prevail, that we'll be accusing them of rigging the election. Which I certainly plan to do.
Any idea at all what's being said?

3. They think it is "Moonbat" tin-foil hat stuff |
|
But I'll bet that changes by Wednesday morning if the GOP loses big.

Well, despite the elections between 2000 and 2006, on FR they believe that it is pretty much only the Dems that cheat and in their opinion we always cheat. It's mind-boggling. If there is a surprise this Tuesday (for them it would be TN), it will be because the Dems cheated. I don't make this up, I've seen it there myself.

7. Here is what Bush* said after running on the theme of "I Trust the People" |
|
Bush*: "Only machines can be trusted because they are objective where people are subjective" He made this statement before even being sworn in for the first time and during the Florida debacle.

Yeah, and we had to realize that it is complete bullshit. Machines do exactly what certain people "tell" them to do. Machines and objectivity lol...
