    I will point out that this cannot change the result of the presidential election, since Trump didn’t win the state in question anyway.

                Casual dismissal of statistically relevant recount and largest recount ever in Wisconsin, even including compared to 2020.

                Local elections officials in 336 randomly selected municipalities across the state hand-counted 327,230 ballots as part of the 2024 audit. That is nearly 10% of all Wisconsin ballots cast in the 2024 election and the largest post-election audit ever undertaken in the state.

                The only errors found during the audit were made by people, not the vote-counting machines. And only five human errors were detected, resulting in an error rate of just 0.0000009%, according to the report.

                  Yes. I read that. I’m also familiar with the voting village at defcon. They had years to plan and do recon. Half measures don’t cut it.

      I will point out that if they did it in a state they weren’t going to win and that would be too suspicious for them to actually win in the first place, why wouldn’t they replicate it in a state they actually needed and on which his election actually hinged? Just means New York was a control/test case

      Frankly after election there are two things that bugged me in California. There was a proposition that removed mandatory work requirement for inmates comparing it to a modern day slavery. There was no one who was willing to endorse vote against it (I suppose due to optics) yet the proposition failed.

      When he visited CA after fires were already put down and made that spectacle with water dam, he also mentioned that he had a good feeling about next election.

      I have a feeling that maybe CA voting is also compromised and this was a test for California, as trump winning here would be extremely suspicious, but no one will care about this proposition.

        That one isn’t suspicious to me. US public opinion has always had very little regard for anyone who’s incarcerated. Hence, once the system gets ahold of you, you’re fucked whether you’re guilty or not (unless you’re wealthy).
