Somebody spilled the beans in the Dan Sullivan Alaska race. - Eagleaidaholic - 10-28-2026 10:47 AM
What rigging an election looks like.
Quote:Operatives aligned with Mary Peltola, the Democratic nominee for Senate, spent months recruiting candidates to peel votes from Senator Dan Sullivan, the Republican.

Dems seem to think blatant cheating is perfectly fine these days. Anything to gain power.

About time the Democrats start playing the games the Republicans do. Kudos to them!

Just confirmed:
Tom supports cheating in elections so long as it means Democrats are beating Republicans.

There's a new quote that needs to be framed.

Its only cheating when Republicans do it
When Democrats do it, they are saving Democracy

Democracy leads to Communism.

Ranked choice voting is a load of crap. "Hey, let's have several primaries all at once in the same race! Derp!" And the people who think this is better than a winner-take-all system are just as derpy. (That's right! I said it! Come at me, leftists! I dare y'all!)

apparently, GTS has mucked the search engine (again), or I'd pull up the thread where this was hashed out moons ago...
bottom line: ranked choice only favors the party of the meek ... it's a ginned system...

This isn't cheating, nor illegal.

It's called Fraud. The whole purpose was to confuse the electorate so the vote for the incumbent would be split between two people. They have the data to prove THAT was the purpose. This guy got convicted for a tweet telling people they could vote by text message with no proof anyone actually tried to. And he wasn't a member of the opposing campaign.

"Douglass Mackey, was sentenced today by United States District Judge Ann M. Donnelly to 7 months in prison for his role in a conspiracy to interfere with potential voters’ right to vote in the 2016 election for the Office of the President of the United States."
