I got it from https://twitter.com/search?q=%23electio ... &src=rela" ... but It could just be a rumour. I may have jumped the gun on that one. I'm probably reaching to find a solution to all the violence being promoted by the loosers (like Michael Moore) in their attempt to have marshal law declared resulting in an extension for Obama. Having Trump win the popular vote might take wind out of their sails.Cornuck wrote:LOL - where did you find your 'facts' on the popular vote?griz wrote:Final election results :

How would you be able to vote if you're not a registered citizen?
I've worked as an election officer several times and we have a ledger where all eligible voters are listed. When they vote, we check their name in the ledger before they are allowed to cast their ballots. If you are not in the ledger you cannot vote. Granted, this is Sweden, and maybe it's a more anarchic system in the US?
Seems improbable though.
As for voter ID... In Sweden we do check voter ID, but there are three options.
a) the voter has a valid identity card
b) the voter is known by the election worker
c) another person, with a valid identity card, signs an affidavit and attests to the identity of the voter
The third option could probably allow for occassional voter fraud, but if this is detected the person who signed the affidivit will go to jail, so I doubt that it would ever become significant.
Anyway, I just don't see how anyone who is not eligible to vote could manage to do it.
Several states don't require identification before voting.Per wrote:Granted, I do not know much about how the actual voting takes place in the USA, but surely this must be impossible?

Well... possibly, but doubtful. You would have to be listed in the ledger to begin with. The election worker is just confirming that you are the person you claim to be. And if you are impersonating someone else, with voter turnout close to 90% in Sweden, the likelyhood of that person turning up is not insignificant, so it would almost certainly be detected. And when it is detected you'd check teh form of identification used, and when that is that one of the election workers vouched for you, this election worker will be implicated... The risk of getting caught is so great I doubt anyone would risk it.micky107 wrote:That there option "b" seems a bit of an open door for nasty stuff?Per wrote:Granted, I do not know much about how the actual voting takes place in the USA, but surely this must be impossible?griz wrote: Apparently 3 million illegals voted

But illegal ID is not enough! You must also be in the ledger as an eligible voter!Anyways; Stands to reason an illegal would have illegal I.D. Those little shops underneath the corner market..

To register for the first time there are ID requirements, but that can be a utility bill, and if you are homeless, you don't need to supply any ID. Regulations vary by State, but partly a hold over from the voter registration days of the civil rights movement, ID requirements are very lax.Per wrote:Ah!

The source is infowars, tinfoilhat-wearing Alex Jones's mouth piece for the alt right and Putin's propaganda machine.
I rest my case.
