While We’re on the Subject of “No Evidence,” Might as Well Add This:

VIP’s [the Voter Integrity Project’s] sampling of the 2020 election discovered evidence of thousands of illegal ballots across numerous contested states.

For example, VIP found more than 1,000 people in both Georgia and Pennsylvania who used a post office address as their home address, and attempted to disguise the post office by adding “Apt,” Suite,” Unit” etc. at the end.

It is a violation of law in both states to use a post office as your home address.

Braynard’s group also found more than 20,000 people in Georgia and more than 8,000 people in Nevada who cast ballots although they no longer met the residency requirements of their respective states.

In Arizona, VIP sampled 2,044 voters and found 44 percent [!] did not request an absentee ballot, even though they reportedly received one.

Arizona law prohibits sending a ballot to a voter who has not requested one.

The project also discovered nearly 6,000 people voted in the 2020 election who no longer met the Arizona’s residency requirements.

Moreover, the sampling revealed 157 people who voted twice in the state.

Like a Bad Supervillain Organization, Remember That DVS (Dominion Voting Sytems) Is Pronounced “Devious”

“No evidence”:

He earned the highest share of all minority votes for a Republican since 1960. Trump grew his support among black voters by 50 percent over 2016. Nationally, Joe Biden’s black support fell well below 90 percent, the level below which Democratic presidential candidates usually lose.

Current tallies show that, outside of a few cities, the Rust Belt swung in Trump’s direction. Yet, Biden leads in Michigan, Pennsylvania, and Wisconsin because of an apparent avalanche of black votes in Detroit, Philadelphia, and Milwaukee. Biden’s ‘winning’ margin was derived almost entirely from such voters in these cities, as coincidentally his black vote spiked only in exactly the locations necessary to secure victory. He did not receive comparable levels of support among comparable demographic groups in comparable states, which is highly unusual for the presidential victor.

Another anomaly is found in the comparison between the polls and non-polling metrics. The latter include: party registrations trends; the candidates’ respective primary votes; candidate enthusiasm; social media followings; broadcast and digital media ratings; online searches; the number of (especially small) donors; and the number of individuals betting on each candidate.

Despite poor recent performances, media and academic polls have an impressive 80 percent record predicting the winner during the modern era. But, when the polls err, non-polling metrics do not; the latter have a 100 percent record. Every non-polling metric forecast Trump’s reelection. For Trump to lose this election, the mainstream polls needed to be correct, which they were not. Furthermore, for Trump to lose, not only did one or more of these metrics have to be wrong for the first time ever, but every single one had to be wrong, and at the very same time; not an impossible outcome, but extremely unlikely nonetheless.

Atypical voting patterns married with misses by polling and non-polling metrics should give observers pause for thought. Adding to the mystery is a cascade of information about the bizarre manner in which so many ballots were accumulated and counted.

The following peculiarities also lack compelling explanations:

1. Late on election night, with Trump comfortably ahead, many swing states stopped counting ballots. In most cases, observers were removed from the counting facilities. Counting generally continued without the observers

2. Statistically abnormal vote counts were the new normal when counting resumed. They were unusually large in size (hundreds of thousands) and had an unusually high (90 percent and above) Biden-to-Trump ratio

3. Late arriving ballots were counted. In Pennsylvania, 23,000 absentee ballots have impossible postal return dates and another 86,000 have such extraordinary return dates they raise serious questions

4. The failure to match signatures on mail-in ballots. The destruction of mail in ballot envelopes, which must contain signatures

5. Historically low absentee ballot rejection rates despite the massive expansion of mail voting. Such is Biden’s narrow margin that, as political analyst Robert Barnes observes, ‘If the states simply imposed the same absentee ballot rejection rate as recent cycles, then Trump wins the election’

6. Missing votes. In Delaware County, Pennsylvania, 50,000 votes held on 47 USB cards are missing

7. Non-resident voters. Matt Braynard’s Voter Integrity Project estimates that 20,312 people who no longer met residency requirements cast ballots in Georgia. Biden’s margin is 12,670 votes

8. Serious ‘chain of custody’ breakdowns. Invalid residential addresses. Record numbers of dead people voting. Ballots in pristine condition without creases, that is, they had not been mailed in envelopes as required by law

9. Statistical anomalies. In Georgia, Biden overtook Trump with 89 percent of the votes counted. For the next 53 batches of votes counted, Biden led Trump by the same exact 50.05 to 49.95 percent margin in every single batch. It is particularly perplexing that all statistical anomalies and tabulation abnormalities were in Biden’s favor. Whether the cause was simple human error or nefarious activity, or a combination, clearly something peculiar happened.

If you think that only weirdos have legitimate concerns about these findings and claims, maybe the weirdness lies in you.

“Hump Day” Is Small Potatoes. We Lived Through Hump Year.

[Adapted from the movie “Planes, Trains, and Automobiles”]

Kneel (to 2020):

You’re no saint. You got free looting, you got a free election, and someone who’ll listen to your boring candidate.

I mean, didn’t you notice on the plane when you started masking, eventually I started reading the vomit bag? — Didn’t that give you some sort of clue, like, hey, maybe this guy’s not enjoying it?

You know, everything is not a crisis. You have to discriminate. You choose things that are dangerous or mildly confusing or interesting.

You’re a miracle! Your year had none of that!

You’re not even amusing accidentally!

“Honey, I’d like you to meet A.D. 2020: it’s got some amazing news stories for you. Oh, and here’s a gun so you can blow your brains out. You’ll thank me for it!”

I could tolerate any insurance seminar. For days, I could sit there and listen to them go on and on with a big smile on my face. They’d say, “How can you stand it?” I’d say, “‘Cause I’ve lived through 2020. I can take anything.”

You know what they’d say? They’d say, “I know what you mean. The murder hornet year? Whoa!”

It’s like going on a date with a Talky Tina doll. I expect you have a little string on your chest, you know, that I pull out and have to snap back. Except I wouldn’t pull it out and snap it back, you would. “Agh! Agh! Agh! Agh!”

And by the way, you know, when you’re creating these little lockdowns? Here’s a good idea: have a point! It makes it so much more interesting for the sufferer!

2020: You play with your balls a lot.

Kneel: I do NOT play with my balls.

2020: Larry Bird doesn’t do as much ball-handling in one night as you do in an hour!

Kneel: Are you trying to start a fight?

2020: No. I’m simply stating a fact. That’s all. You fidget with your nuts a lot.

Kneel: You know what’d make me happy?

2020: Another couple of balls, and an extra set of fingers?

Uh Oh
