Trump thinks absentee/mail-in voting is the way to go:

"I voted for a guy named Trump," the president said, according to a pool report, the New York Times wrote. Trump said that his experience had been "perfect" and that "it was a very secure vote."

In the summer of 2020, Trump defended his record of voting by mail.

"I’m an absentee voter because I can’t be in Florida, because I’m in Washington," Trump said in July 2020 before repeating unsubstantiated claims of fraud. "I’m at the White House, so I’ll be an absentee voter. We have a lot of absentee voters, and it works. We’re in favor of absentee.

That's right, old boy. Particularly when, as you argued so many times, Dominion can just flick a switch and make all those paper mail in ballots disappear.

How do they do this again? Is it mirrors, or some kind of trap door leading to a top secret vault, where they all get safely stored and counted in the inevitable recounts, a la Georgia, Arizona, Wisconsin, Pennsylvania and Nevada?

Kindly update silly old moi on this if you wouldn't mind, along with the insufferably stupid malicious stinker.

Kind regards.

Me too, Greggery, so let's ask the experts. Here's the database from conservative think tank, the Heritage Foundation - an entire site devoted to this question. Over a decade worth of stats.

We'll let the old boy do the honours, shall we?

There you go, old boy, start counting. You can start with Arizona and work your way up.

We'd like a report on our desk first thing Monday morning, thanks.

Cheers.

Yes, let's go to the exerts, grimacing, wee son of Punjab.



Each state is generally responsible for the administration of its own electoral systems, including elections for federal office. State governments must take this responsibility seriously and adopt policies sufficient to secure their elections against fraud, including efforts by noncitizens to vote, and by citizens registered in multiple states.

The Heritage Foundation has outlined several policies states should adopt, including requiring government-issued identification and proof of citizenship to vote. States should enter into interstate voter registration crosscheck programs to identify voters registered in multiple states. They should verify the accuracy of their voter registrations, by comparing voter rolls with jury forms, DMV files, and other government records to identify noncitizens so that they can be removed from voter rolls. The federal government should cooperate with state efforts to clean up their registrations, and make Department of Homeland Security and other databases available to state officials for this purpose.

In recent years, some proactive secretaries of state across the country have taken the lead in securing American elections. Kansas’ Interstate Voter Registration Crosscheck Program has identified hundreds of thousands of potential duplicate registrations in the 30 states participating in the initiative, as well as evidence of double voting. At the same time, more states have passed voter ID laws to detect and deter fraud.

There are now 34 states that have laws requiring voters to show some form of identification at the polls, although not all require photo identification or proof of citizenship. A small number of states have extended that ID requirement to absentee ballots, a requirement that all states should implement.
...

Heritage’s Voter Fraud Database contains a sampling of voter fraud cases from across the country, all of which have resulted in either a criminal conviction or an overturned election. The Heritage Database is not representative of the full scope of the problem. Unfortunately, too often voter fraud goes undetected, and when it is discovered, overburdened prosecutors seldom prioritize these cases.

So extensive opportunities for fraudulent, duplicate or illegal voting remain.  Back to the experts:

Different types of election fraud

There are many ways for criminals to steal votes and change the outcome of an election. These include:

Impersonation fraud at the polls:Voting in the name of other legitimate voters and voters who have died, moved away, or lost their right to vote because they are felons, but remain registered.

False registrations: Voting under fraudulent voter registrations that either use a phony name and a real or fake address or claim residence in a particular jurisdiction where the registered voter does not actually live and is not entitled to vote.

Duplicate voting: Registering in multiple locations and voting in the same election in more than one jurisdiction or state.

Fraudulent use of absentee ballots: Requesting absentee ballots and voting without the knowledge of the actual voter; or obtaining the absentee ballot from a voter and either filling it in directly and forging the voter’s signature or illegally telling the voter who to vote for.

Buying votes: Paying voters to cast either an in-person or absentee ballot for a particular candidate.

Illegal “assistance” at the polls: Forcing or intimidating voters—particularly the elderly, disabled, illiterate, and those for whom English is a second language—to vote for particular candidates while supposedly providing them with “assistance.”

Ineligible voting: Illegal registration and voting by individuals who are not U.S. citizens, are convicted felons, or are otherwise not eligible to vote.

Altering the vote count: Changing the actual vote count either in a precinct or at the central location where votes are counted.

Ballot petition fraud: Forging the signatures of registered voters on the ballot petitions that must be filed with election officials in some states for a candidate or issue to be listed on the official ballot.




Tapdance to that, paki. Better still, take the turd for a tango with you.

Oh, I see. Kansas Interstate Voter Registration Crosscheck Program, is it? Not this Republican Interstate vote-rigging program, is it?

Purging voters in a wacially descwimitowy manner, eh? Now where have we heard that before?

Shurely shome mishtake. Do you want to tell the Heritage Foundation or should I?

Yeah-but-no-but-yeah-but-no, old boy.

It's a Wikipedia article that exposes the entire GOP racket to return to the days of Jim Crow. It's what is known in civilised circles as LAWFARE !!!

Of course you prove voter fraud by the rate of convictions. That's how you prove business fraud, charity fraud, rape, election interference and all the other crimes and civil findings the big fella's already been done on.

It's called evidence based on:

a) The balance of probabilities, and
b) Beyond a reasonable doubt

The Interstate Voter Registration Crosscheck Program was shut down using the former, so we'll ask you again.

How many cases of voter fraud were uncovered in the 2020 election? You have the data in front of you.

What's the matter, dear boy, cat got your tongue?
