Then write the DNC and tell them that you demand real, fair primaries for the voters to choose the candidate.

Despite what people are saying, her campaign sucked. She basically skipped all of the primaries, didn't get a single delegate as far as I can tell. She wouldn't go on enough interviews to give people a sense of who she was and she failed to even try to message working class men about their issues. The only ads I got from the campaign were about how horrible Trump would be on abortion and immigration, and nothing promising to be an administration that helped working class men out in any way.

If there was voter suppression, nobody was doing as effective job of it as the DNC. They failed to hold competitive primaries and even canceled a couple. They didn't even let the delegates vote on the actual nominee at the convention.

@PhiberOptik1979 Yes, and in this case, the cause of the loss is quite simply that the Democrats didn't bother to run a competitive primary to force Biden to demonstrate his ability to get through another 4 years. Harris never campaigned in most of the states since she was allowed to skip the primaries. They didn't even bother to have a primary in Florida at all. The campaign failed to offer really any reason for working class men to vote for her, the only ads I personally was presented with were fearmongering ones about abortion and the need for me to give them money. I'd be hard pressed to name any of her policies that working class men should feel particularly drawn to vote for her over that aren't the result of altruism.

There were a lot of improvements to the way that elections were made in the last 4 years because they wanted the count to be completed with plenty of time in case the results were challenged in court. Additionally, a ton of people voted early, which meant that work involved with verifying registration, signatures and prepping the ballots to be counted was done a lot quicker than normally. I personally was surprised by how quickly it was done, but most states use optical scan ballots similar to what kids use for their standardized tests. The ballots once loaded into the machines can be tabulated extremely quickly.

@jasonschulz3819 I don't think that the results are going to be certified until they've counted all of the ballots that were received in time. That being said, in states like GA, they had enough counted the night of the election that they would have needed to find tens of thousands of ballots all voting for Harris to flip the state to her. As in, possible, OH did find more ballots in 2004 that had been misplaced, but that sort of thing wasn't ever going to happen this time with so much concern over Trump refusing to accept the outcome and staging another coup attempt.

The issue here wasn't disinformation, it's that the Democratic party ran a couple of candidates that weren't up to the job. Biden was barely with it enough to earn Cornpop's vote in 2020, and without needing to actually go out and campaign. Harris has never won any delegates in the primaries and couldn't be bothered to message working class men to vote for her. The only ads that I personally saw from her campaign were fearmongering over women's rights issues and immigration and wanting me to give them money while offering me nothing that would address my personal life situation or the needs of working class men. Combine that with her just not campaigning in most of the country due to skipping the primaries and we shouldn't be even remotely surprised by what happened. They didn't even bother to have a primary in FL, even though it's a state that was listed as competitive this time around.

@facehugger3 Yep, I didn't vote for either of them, but this is how democracy works. The Democrats have rigged so many consecutive primaries that the only way they can win is if they have a candidate that's so unpopular that the opposition tips it their way.

@jenniferhampton5171 Yes, if they were erroneously removed, they could have reregistered. A significant portion of the 19m people would also be the result of deaths. There were approximately 2.9m that died in 2019, 3.5m in 2020, and probably numbers in between in 2021 and 2022. So, for there to be 19m people legitimately removed, just by death would be a stretch, but people get removed for being inactive, being sentenced to prison or moving out of state. Most of those groups are able to reregister to vote and a good chunk of that was probably just people that were removed from the rolls for having sat out too many consecutive elections in a row.
