  • That’s great!

    I felt like your original post was sitting on the fence. “What do you think” and “I’m surprised” could be taken positively or negatively. While that should be how a discussion works, it is frequently taken advantage of by bad faith actors who can and will leave their spaces for whatever reason to sow discord.

    And especially since the original accusations against the two women originate from shady Russian sources, can never be too careful!





  • Just to clarify, the evidence provided by opposition is not from exit polls. The evidence is genuine voting receipts from the machines that are supposed to be* guaranteed to each party’s site observers

    *Opposition says many of their observers were removed without being allowed access to their polling site receipts to explain why they didn’t have them all

    The electronic machines provide every voter a paper receipt that shows which candidate they chose. Voters are supposed to deposit their receipts at ballot boxes before exiting the polls.

    After polls close, each machine prints a tally sheet showing the candidates’ names and the votes each received. Party representatives stationed at polling sites throughout election day get a copy of the tally sheet, and electoral authorities keep another one.
