Truth Sandwich: Voting is good for all or it is good for none. Compare all of the states that suppress voting with those that support it fully, on systemic racism, women’s rights, LGBTQs, healthcare, education, infrastructure, labor, immigration, climate…and their effects on the nation entire by way of the Constitutional gerrymander of the Senate and hence the Electoral College. The National Popular Vote Interstate Compact would fix the EC, and even a few more Democratic Senators would go a long way to fixing the Senate—especially Senators willing to End The Filibuster and pass essential voting rights legislation plus statehood for DC and some other territories. Or just maybe the Senate we now have will get down to that early next year.
The Big Lie:
- Millions of people voted illegally in 2020.
- The Chinese shipped in millions of fake mail-in ballots.
- Hugo Chavez’s ghost’s computer software changed millions of votes on voting machines.
- No, Italian satellites in orbit changed the votes in the machines.
- The Kraken will fix everything.

Far too little vote fraud to tip election to Trump, AP finds
These are some of the culprits in the “massive election fraud” Trump falsely says deprived him of a second term:
- A Wisconsin man who mistakenly thought he could vote while on parole.
- A woman in Arizona suspected of sending in a ballot for her dead mother.
- A Pennsylvania man who went twice to the polls, voting once on his own behalf and once for his son.
So yes, there was a tiny number of civics idiots who thought that they could get away with in-person voter fraud.
There were cases of a person mailing in a ballot and then dying before election day, so the vote was legal when cast. There were people wrongly identified in the registration records. One person who moved within the county was mistakenly flagged as having moved elsewhere. That was fixed.
