There’s a saying that, if one could invent time travel then someone should go stop Hitler. Maybe that’s a good reason to think that time travel will never be possible– or maybe it’s “read-only”.
One of the reasons that it is entirely believable that electoral shenanigans happen in every election, and especially in 2020, is that if there are ways to cheat, people will. If you couple that with messaging that people with other beliefs are not just wrong but evil, what is to stop someone from considering it a moral imperative to cheat?
More than one in four Americans expressed willingness to commit at least one type of illegal voting practice in the 2024 election to assist their favored candidate or stop a candidate they do not favor, according to a new survey from the Heartland Institute. The survey, conducted by Rasmussen, indicated that some 28% of respondents would engage in election fraud to “help their preferred candidate.” Even as 32% of Democrats said they would pursue illegal activity, 28% of Republicans and 24% of independents said the same.

What’s totally wrong about this country is that knowing that this is the case, we do not protect our elections better. We should be identifying the ways that people can cheat, and working to make our elections more auditable and traceable, not less. And yet, we do the opposite:
- Voter rolls are not strictly kept
- Illegals do vote
- Invalid addresses are in place
- etc.
And we know all of this is true. So, since we know it’s true, and the loser always claims this is a problem, the only reason we don’t fix it is because the powers that be are under the belief that it benefits them. Sounds like it’s time for We the People to stand up, does it not?
