“A fundamental principle of American democracy is that when we lose an election, we accept the results. That principle, as much as any other, distinguishes democracy from monarchy or tyranny. And anyone who seeks the public trust must honor it.”
No. Fuck her. We put all our hope in to her and she utterly failed us all, even the cultists whether they’re smart enough to know it or not. At this point I wouldn’t piss on her if she were on fire.
I was upset when Kerry conceded, this is a whole other level. People are going to die that wouldn’t have otherwise and her cowardice at calling out the bullshit tactics the extremists said flat out they’d use to secure power places that at her feet. She didn’t even fucking try. Basis were burned, found in a fucking sewer. That isn’t democracy.
If you can’t see that you need to pay more attention.
Seriously; why is no one bringing this up? I saw the largest lines I’ve ever seen at a polling location; WAY more than 2020, yet nobody voted? Give me a fucking break. The Republicans have a history of doing exactly what they accused the other side of doing. It’s fishy as hell.
Furthermore, how the hell were we able to get the results the same night of election day? For as long as I can remember, it would take at least a week minimum before we had any clue who won. Yet somehow they were able to process ballots much faster this time? Give me a fucking break.
Edit: Also, does no one else find it odd that progressive ballot measures overwhelmingly won in several states that turned red?
This news story is about 12 ballots in total that someone yanked out of the neighborhood’s mailboxes. This could easily have been a neighbor doing it for other reasons. While I wouldn’t overlook it, it seems like an isolated incident.
Call me crazy, but either that person is exaggerating or read only the headline, but they seem either on edge or on some weird agenda.
Thanks! I was somewhat worried about putting my ballot in my mailbox instead of a ballot collection box specifically because of a fear of this. But ultimately I decided that I live pretty far from areas where that may happen, I put the ballot in right before bed so it could be picked up first thing in the morning, and I decided that even if it got stolen, it wouldn’t matter all that much since my state is heavily blue.

Please watch her speech.
She’s preaching to the choir. We know this. The people who voted for trump don’t give a fuck.
Flowery words coming from someone who now lives in a tyrannic monarchy.
No, just a monarchy. As much as it pains me to say it, it’s actually not “tyrannic” because the electorate legitimately voted for it.
I almost wish Trump had actually lost and then stolen power. At least that would’ve made some sort of sense!
Not “tyrannic” yet, but Project 2025 is 3 months away.

You guys failed yourselves by not coming out to vote.
You really think that’s the cause when ballots were found stuffed in to a storm drain? Really?

Many locations optimized their counting method after the last election.

I didn’t put any hopes in her. She turned out exactly as I projected.
Fair.
