We were told there was no vote fraud in America and that the '20 election was the cleanest in American history. Guess that wasn't true after all ...

Now America has universal education and not knowing how to sign your name is absolutely ridiculous; there is no reason why any ballot should be signed with an X in modern America. That is a huge red flag and every such ballot should be scrutinized.

When my father was a boy his grandmother owned a farm deep in the Ozarks. They had no running water, no central heat, no electricity. And she had a laborer who lived in a log cabin with a dirt floor back in the woods behind her home. Jim Lowe was the son of a Confederate soldier who settled back there and lived quietly to avoid any Union entanglements. (I suspect the senior Lowe was a Bushwhacker and so could not take the amnesty as irregulars were often not given one.) So old Jim grew up with no education and signed his checks with an X. But even he eventually learned to write his name. In modern America there is no excuse for not being literate enough to sign your own name at a minimum. And if you can't sign your own name how do you understand what is on the ballot?

BTW Jim Lowe himself kept a low profile after killing a man in a bar fight. He rarely went to town after that, and the local sheriff was none too eager to go and bring him in because he would not go easily, and it was an accident after all. This was in the late thirties and forties.

At any rate they told us there was no fraud in our elections and we keep finding more and more fraud. It is what has kept the Democrats close to the GOP all these years. We've had dozens of elections that ended with a GOP win but then the Democrats kept counting until they suddenly "found" enough ballots to win. It's odd how slow counting is always a problem in DEMOCRAT districts.

If democracy is so important then the first thing we must have is secure elections. Without that democracy means rule by the better organized, not the will of the People.
