| The end of free and fair elections in the USA 20:58 - Feb 2 with 1061 views | ElderGrizzly | Saying the quiet things out loud again. Trump:”These people were brought to our country to vote, and they vote illegally. The Republicans should say, we should take over the voting in at least 15 places. The Republicans ought to nationalize the voting.” Oh and this of course in Georgia [Post edited 2 Feb 21:11]

With the evidence freely being exposed to convict him, surely there is a quick method of removal (other than assasination). He is responsible for so much loss, both monetary and humanity. |  | |  |

A better starting point would be a government not trying to interfere with election results. No evidence of significant voter fraud. |  |

'No evidence of significant fraud', it doesn’t mean the system can’t be improved. The defensiveness suggests that mentioning the need for ID, is deemed as an accusation, when it’s really just about standardising a process. [Post edited 3 Feb 9:33]

It's a trump narrative to support the gerrymandering and violence after he lost. Why would you support it? |  |

The huge, deadly serious challenge is stopping it from happening here. |  |

Democracy has to be fair and consistent for everyone, not just when the outcome or the side involved suits you. Wanting the same basic rules everywhere isn’t about backing one narrative or another. |  | |  |

Same. I used to go to the US regularly both as visitor and for work. I was offered a bit of work out there recently for a UK based company, and turned it down, had conversations with Mrs Chelters and agreed we won't go until Trump is gone. |  |

But focussing on a rule which is not necessary above all the blatant gerrymandering is. |  |

Not in Tendring District it doesn’t we are coming up to having our voting cancelled for the second time. Balls to America I’m more concerned about Blighty 🇬🇧🤓👍 |  |

Not neccessary? - you honestly think its not neccessary to show ID to vote, to ensure one vote per person or to ensure people are who they say they are? |  | |  |

Given we've managed it for decades with hardly any issues, yes. (The Electoral Commission reports that the number of cases of personation is "so low as to be immaterial"). |  | |  |
