The Election is Rigged (I'm Going To Lose)
#64
RE: The Election is Rigged (I'm Going To Lose)
I think rigged nationally is a stretch, although various states have put in place voter restrictions for the purpose of depressing minority, handicapped, and poor votes. Voter roll purges have had similarge purposes and effects. They may have cost Gore the election, though the stupidity of the Democrat commissioner's ballot design was equally important.

But somehow suppression of the minority vote isn't what what I think Trump is insinuating. And as he specifically mentioned Florida, which has a Republican governor I can't see democrats rigging the election a viable possibility even if they tried.

I'm a Libertarian registered Democrat (it's the Democrats primary that matters in Oregon). I often vote Republican. I would have voted for either Rubio or Kasich, or even J Bush over H Clinton. But I've never seen Democrats attempting to suppress Republican voters except through the time honored gerymander used by both parties. So I can't imagine what Trump is talking about.

I will vote Libertarian this year, unless Oregon looks tight in which case I will hold my nose and vote Clinton.
If there is a god, I want to believe that there is a god.  If there is not a god, I want to believe that there is no god.
