    Well now Trev, it’s like this.
    People show up with pieces of proof of fraud and the left, including yourself, just say “It’s wrong”. “Biden won”. End of conversation.
    You’re kinda like the guy who never comes to the table with any food but you say you’re feeding everyone.

    Seems to me that the parroting part belongs to you. You don’t want to converse, you don’t want to even try to back up your statements but you definitely will attempt to defame those who actually do want to find out the truth.

    And by the way, that “whatever” thing is mostly owned by twinkie California girls when they can’t think of anything else to say so please quit parroting them too. It’s so….yesterday and after all, you’re a guy.

    Even Biden , in one of his famous "slips of the tongue" told a union worker during the campaign that he didn't need his vote because they had the most advanced voter fraud ever. It wasn't covered in the media obviously, but there are , or were , videos of the entire conversation online.

    Voter turnout rates ( 66.8% for 2020 ) are based on the number of US citizens, NOT registered voters.

    There were approximately 232m citizens eligible to vote (registered or not).

    So the number of actual voters is 66.8% of 232 = 155 million ..

    The number 155 million is consistent with 81 million for Biden and 74 million for Trump.

    Can you show me where it says that the turnout rates are based on the number of US Citizens, @Nancy Hart ? Since many of the citizens might be too young to vote, it makes sense to me that they would only call someone a voter when they were actually registered to vote.
    The census bureau, which is where i found my information says that they get their information from the Voting and Registration Supplement for the United States, so I think that they would be pretty accurate.

    If the person were eligible to vote, but didn’t register and vote, then they would not be counted in the total number of votes; so only people who were actually voting were being counted by the census bureau. If there were 232 million eligible citizens eligible, but a lot of those did not register and vote, they would not even be part of the total votes for each candidate.

    Here is a link to the census information page:

    I was going by this table, also from the census bureau. If you do the math, the 66.8% is a percentage of the total citizens otherwise eligible to vote, whether registered or not. They should make it clearer when they talk about turnout rate.

    Once again; if these things floating around today had any merit why weren't they used in January 2021? Or did it take a year and a half to do the math?

    Pfft! I backed up my assertion with an article that came out, recently, concerning the findings of an esteemed, conservative group. Did you even read it?

    FWIW (Ooh... is that used by CA girls, too?) My "whatever," in context, was far different from a Valley Girl rolling her eyes and using that word as a stand-alone exclamation. It's all in the understanding of how I used it. Takes a little thought, but you obviously didn't want to take the millisecond that it takes. So....... WHATEVER! THAT, is the Valley Girl trip. Got it??

    Pfft ? Really dude? Pfft? Someone who says that normally has spinach caught between their teeth.

    After Yvonne’s post, Nancy is the only one who came back with any actual opposing information. Although we’re always going to find information that leads us in different directions but at least is isn’t simply…you’re wrong. I know more than you do. End of Conversation.

    The problem is, you didn’t.. You came back with nothing but negative responses and cat calling.
    I simply responded to you according to your own standards. You opened the door to a self styled line of conversation so I walked in. Pfft….indeed.

    You do realize that the MarketWatch article you linked to represents the opinion of one guy, Weston Blasi, don't you? Given that I have never, in my life, heard of the guy before, why would his opinion carry the day against everything that makes far more sense? Is he supposed to be the go-to guy, the guru of fair elections, or what? MarketWatch, itself, is owned by News Corp, a NYC-based news conglomerate. I'm sorry if it offends you, but I'll do my own thinking. I'll read what the pundits have to say if they can say it in an interesting way, but I haven't turned my brain over to them.

    So you think linking to it again is going to make it more credible?

    Look, I got it along time ago.
    From the Covid thing to the Election, you’re not going to budge. You take your information from whatever highly suspect sources and that’s how you maintain your own sense of self assurance.
    That’s okay but at the same time you seem to believe that it’s also okay to belittle those who have their own sources and have an opposing view.
    That just happens to be where I draw the line.

    Many are the times when I have written that I have no ought with what someone believes but just the way they handle that belief. If someone wishes to undeservedly lash out at others then I will take a definitive stance. That said, if that same someone merely posts a position in a calm, adult and intelligent manner I might debate the issue but at the same time show respect.

    As an example, I have a lot of respect for @James Hintze. His political views are polar opposites of mine albeit he’s a gentleman and as a gentleman he deserves respect. @Nancy Hart is another very thoughtful but political opposite of my way of thinking but still, she’s a lady and remains a lady no matter the venue.
    The late Bill Boggs was another person I had a lot of regard for and we often debated on single subjects but it was always between gentlemen.

    Maybe you just need to figure out a better manner in which to present your case so you too can be regarded a gentleman and be treated as such in the future.
    You get what you give.

    Thanks for the nice reply, Bobby. I enjoy participating here specifically because so many people disagree. I'd find it boring if everybody agreed with my opinions.

    How many of you were aware of this, about the Federal Election Commission?

    I was not aware of the problem. Maybe it explains a lot of what went on.
