I am a Democrat and know all about the stolen election. I will explain the ways we thought about doing, why we rejected those, and how we ended up doing it. There is also the issue of signs of fraud, which I will talk about as well.
There are three major categories of election fraud:
- Add extra votes
- Remove votes
- 'Count' them incorrectly.
Adding votes is the hardest to do. It requires a lot of work with lots of steps that can get you arrested. The election workers get real suspicious when someone tries to vote that they have already checked off as voting. Similarly they count the total number of ballots and compare with records for absentee requested and people that showed up.
To do this properly you need a reliable list of registered voters that will definitely not vote. Dead people is the old standby, but in the past 50 years it became very easy to discover this. Computerized records work well. The GOP keeps claiming to find them, but reporters keep proving it is just live people with similar ages and names to dead people.
Stealing ballots doesn't work either because when real voters ask for a ballot and it doesn't show up, you make a fuss. In 2018 we even caught a Republican 'collecting' unused mail in ballots from people that said they did not want to vote. Note the words "CAUGHT".
Basically, the only way to do this now is to register non-existent people and have them vote. And they have to be non-existent people, because you never know who will suddenly register to vote. Illegals do not count because that gets ICE involved and ICE is good about looking for illegals.
This method was once popular in local politics, but it faded away. It requires too many corrupt officials to get away with it. One honest person spoils the game, there are a lot of written records for the 'registered voters' that lawyers and judges love.. Paperwork leaves a legal trail called "EVIDENCE" and people end up going to jail for trying this.
All of this is way way too risky to try in a federal election. You might be able to pull it off in once city, but to win an electoral college you need to win multiple states with multiple cities. No way would we try this idiotic idea in 5-6 states with >10 cities with 1/2 million population each. Talking 10-15 criminal cells, each with at least 5 people involved. Fifty to a hundred criminals means one is going to get caught - either immediately or before January 20th and offer to turn state's evidence. We are not the Mafia, these are 'new' criminals, not hardened offenders. (Otherwise Trump would have lost in 2016.)
Now a days, the Republicans have become the masters of removing votes, mainly by putting obstacles in the way of poor and urban voters. ID's, wait times, objections to students, are just a few of the ways.
The main advantage of Removing Votes is that even if you get caught, chances are you still won't go to jail. You can easily claim it was an accident. (I just forgot about that mail bag, I did not hide it. I honestly thought that dark skinned guy was not a citizen.) Still need hundreds of people involved to do this right, but even if you get caught you likely just fail to remove the votes rather than any real punishment.
Counting incorrectly is the newest method. Altering ballots is hard - fairly easy to see where someone erased ink. Easier to just ignore the ballots and have the 'counter' write what you want. Add a 0 in the right place and you can claim a victory. You can program it into computers and don't even have to have more than one person involved in the crime. Again you can claim 'honest mistake' and not go to jail. But then we started recounts.
You can't just do the counting incorrectly once, but multiple times and most importantly getting the SAME incorrect count. Worse, lots of recounts are hand done. No computers, checking actual paper ballots. Now you have to bribe lots of people AND the people that make the computer software.
So we had our work cut out for us. The real problem is that there were too many Republicans in charge of
election monitoring. They held both the federal AND the state governments in the swing
states (Georgia, Florida are prime example, but Wisconsin, Michigan, Nevada, Arizona are all basically GOP territory for state governments). Those are a lot of people to fool or bribe. Unless Trump and all the red states hired a bunch of total idiots in charge of election security, none of those ways would work for us.

Which brings us to the clear signs of election fraud.
Anything unusual without a good explanation gets looked at hard. People keep talking about the vote changing late but the explanation for that is that Republicans were in charge of how the votes were done in the swing states and they are the ones in control . Some claim that the mail in ballots themselves were a sign of issues but this year was different because of the Covid scare.
It doesn't matter if Covid is real or fake. What matters is that Democrats were scared of Covid. It might be fake, but the Democrats asked for a lot more mail in ballots than the Republicans so that is not a valid sign of fraud. That is obvious that no judge has disputed - not even Trump appointed ones.
Here are some real signs of fraud:
- The number of new registered people skyrocketed. But that was more Republicans, not Democrats. If the Democrats were stealing votes, the Democrats should have had more new registered people. This points the Republicans cheating, not the Democrats.
- Popular vote not agreeing with the electoral vote. Again, points to Republican fraud, not Democrats. Makes little sense to do fraud in both the states you need to steal AND in the all the other states. Especially considering the Democrats won the popular vote by about 6 million votes. That many votes can't be faked - not without some one finding out. It is a huge margin and practically screams 'fair election'.
- The polls show the 'wrong' side winning. That did not happen. Every major poll showed the Democrats winning. More importantly , only 'swing' states swung, and most of them swung the way the polls said they would. Yes, the Democrats won Georgia, but Stacey Abrham almost won it in 2018 and the Republicans won Florida. No way that the Democrats got away with more fraud in Georgia than they did in Florida.
You read all the way to the end, so I am going to tell you how the Democrats actually STOLE the election without leaving any evidence.
We let women, blacks, latinx, Chinese (pissed at Trump for "Kung Flu"
and 'China Virus'), homosexuals, college educated and non-religious
people vote. For some reason, they mostly voted for Biden. All of which is illegal. Or well, it WAS illegal back in the 19th century. But first we spent a century making it legal. Then we spent decades recruiting them.
It's called democracy.
I lived through Regan's >500 electoral vote landslide and voted for Bill Clinton's >400 electoral vote landslide. This Presidential election may have been a squeaker (306 votes, either way compare the 2020 total to the 2019), but it basically did exactly what the polls said it would.
May God have mercy on your sole. American will NOT
