Debunked by Polifact and Snopes. Someone was comparing 2020 vote totals to 2018 registration; the total registered before the 2020 election was higher than the votes, and Wisconsin allows registration at the polling place.
Even using the "reported" numbers, that's still like a 90% turnout...which is fucking ludicrous if you know anything about elections.

Brad, I think you may be confusing turnout among *eligible* voters and turnout among *registered* voters. For example, in 2016, there were 157 million registered voters and 137 million votes. That's 87%. An individual swing state with 90% is not at all ludicrous.

The more commonly reported number is turnout among *eligible* voters. For example, nationally there were 231 million eligible voters in 2016, which is a turnout of 59%. A turnout of 90% among *eligible* voters would be suspicious, I agree. But that's not the case here.

This is going to the Supreme Court.  If you watched the Louder with Crowder Election stream which I told you guys to watch you would had seen voter fraud in Detroit after closing time.  With video evidence and eye witness report.

You didn't post a link. I watched a bit of this video that I found by search -

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ivT2z5UgHxo

I don't see anything on video that indicates voter fraud. For example, in the first clip, I see a guy with a wagon going into a building. Is it possible that he has secret fraudulent ballots inside the wagon and that he got them into the voting counting center without anyone checking him? It's possible, but the video isn't proof of that. Another clip shows a bunch of guys with cameras and suitcases also near the polling place. Again - there's no indication that they (a) got into the ballot-counting area without being checked, and (b) that the suitcases contained fraudulent ballots as opposed to batteries, cables, and lights for the cameras.

If you looked carefully you will see it might not matter what happens with Detroit. If it turns out Biden squeaks out a win in Georgia, and it's SLIGHTLY trending that way right now, then he can lose Michigan and still win.

Y'all are in denial. You cannot "fix this problem" with one state anymore.

Greetings!

Well, if Biden and Harris manage to defraud this election, they will usher in Marxism and our Republic will be gone. Four years from now, you won't recognize this country as America any longer, if not a whole fuck sooner than that. Are you comfortable with a Marxist takeover of America?

Open your fucking eyes and swallow down the shit policies that fucking Bernie, Harris, Beto O'Rourke, Buttiegieg, AOC and the "squad" have all said they have planned for America, and ask yourself if that is a free America. Ask yourself if that is a vision of America that can somehow ever be reversed if they get into power. How is all of that BS not Marxist tyranny?

Amazing how many mindless fucking slugs there are that love Marxism. A big Marxist ass-fucking for America. Yay! More globalism, Marxism, racism, reparations, racial and sexual Olympic hierarchies, speech codes, gun confiscation, higher taxes, and brainwashing at an unprecedented scale--and fuck you harder if you are a white person. How nice. This is what is coming for America, and all of these mindless scum are drooling in joy and can hardly wait. How fucking pathetic and sad watching a glorious nation such as America choke, whither, and die. And all unleashed by traitors in our midst.

Semper Fidelis,

Tim Pool stated that a large amount of Biden supporters are new people who know nothing of Biden.  Like 0 political experience.  They are going to get a shock once Biden gets war going to make elites happy.

Also, it seems there are more votes cast in Wisconsin than registered voters.

Debunked by Polifact and Snopes. Someone was comparing 2020 vote totals to 2018 registration; the total registered before the 2020 election was higher than the votes, and Wisconsin allows registration at the polling place.

Even using the "reported" numbers, that's still like a 90% turnout...which is fucking ludicrous if you know anything about elections.

Checking at https://elections.wi.gov/elections-voting/statistics
"Wisconsin's 2020 Estimated Voting Age Population is 4,536,293."
The vote totals I've seen latest had 1,630,542 Biden vs 1,610,007 Trump, plus 48,872 for third party candidates; not official but the final certified count is unlikely to vary a lot (and as Scott Walker noted on Twitter, statewide recounts in WI don't budge votes more than a few hundred votes). So, 3,289,421 votes out of an estimated voting age population of 4,523,293, or 72.51%. There's a spreadsheet at that website showing the comparable calculations for previous elections - presidential elections in 1960 and 2004 were both higher percentages.

No doubt you don't believe any of it but why did the swing states "stop counting" in the middle of the night? And magically after that, in the wee hours and beyond, every Trump lead evaporated. As Stalin said, it's who counts the ballots.

Did they stop counting, or did some step in the reporting process stop? If they did stop, probably it's because that's their established legal procedure for counting votes. You'd be complaining if they kept counting after the observers from your party all fell asleep. Trump leads evaporated in WI and MI, and are heading there in PA, because their Republican legislatures did not allow for any counting of mailed ballots earlier, Trump discouraged his voters from voting early by mail, and so the final ballots to be counted favored Biden by a huge margin.

Quote
Why has Trump led Georgia and NC for all this time with 99% in and the MSM is not calling it?

In both cases, AP says there are enough outstanding votes - mostly mail-in ballots, which generally have favored Biden - to make it possible that Biden catches up. (CNN only says 95% in for both states; the AP Explainer says 4% in GA and 200,000 in NC.)

Why aren't they calling Alaska for Trump?

Anchorage Daily News says "To ensure a voter hasn’t voted twice and is registered properly, absentee ballots won’t be counted until at least next week." But I'm also a little mystified as to how much uncertainty there could be, and there doesn't seem to be an Explainer from AP.

quoting another forum I use:
Wisconsin voter turnout by year:

2000 - 67.01%
2004 - 73.24%
2008 - 69.20%
2012 - 70.14%
2016 - 67.34%
2020 - 89.25%

yeah, right - totally believable!

Wrong denominator for 2020; the other percentages match the spreadsheet
"Voter Turnout Partisan-NonPartisan Through August 2020.xlsx"
at https://elections.wi.gov/elections-voting/statistics

The votes aren't in the spreadsheet for November 2020, but the correct denominator is on the webpage and the spreadsheet:
"Wisconsin's 2020 Estimated Voting Age Population is 4,536,293."
That gives 72.51% for 3,289,421 votes, not even as good as 2004.

I'm just going to leave this here: https://twitter.com/LadyQanuck/status/1324199972972187655

If true, then all legal ballots have been marked and can be verified. May turn out to be interesting after all....

"Think Logically If the playbook was known, why not just stop it from happening? Sometimes you must show the people, people need to understand, the great awakening has never ended. Why did Trump mention 4:00am at his 2:00am press conference? Trap Set"

It's 2000 again, but with multiple lawsuits involving multiple states and its all going to be decided by courts which is the worst way to win an election, but THIS was always what was going to happen thanks to the mega-bullshit of mail in voting and allowing ballot harvesting to exist.

Either way, we're heading toward the shattering of the union.

One country, two opposing cultures doesn't work and will only result in social breakdown until either separation or one side of the culture war is crushed and/or submits.

There was never any energy on the left FOR Biden, only energy AGAINST Trump and that's obviously translates into energy AGAINST Trump's supporters...who are heavily armed, but perhaps too cowardly and weak (oops, I meant "pragmatic and sensible") to actually stand and fight.

We will see.
