*A screenshot of the poll questions and its results can be found in the Twitter link, provided above.*

I have not been following the aftermath of the chaos that resulted in Maricopa County, Arizona on Election Day, but it fills my heart to see that the vast majority of Americans agree that what occurred in Maricopa County was wrong, and, likely, disenfranchised some voters from casting their ballots.

Sixty-nine percent of Democrats, seventy-eight percent of Republicans, and seventy percent of Independents agree that "many voters were deprived of their sacred right to vote" in Maricopa County, Arizona, on November 8, 2022.

Total nonsense. A poll of 750 people in total, with an undisclosed number from each party claims that 69% at least somewhat agree with the statement. “The vast majority of Americans” - LOL, bloody freaking hell!

Why do you guys always act like you have a smoking gun but it’s nothing more than a blank? Nothing to see here. The desperation is palpable.

It's not a smoking but it indicates that the number of people questioning that election or have a non flattering opinion of the process are not just a few outliers.

I bet some of them were thinking about the problems regarding armed drop box "watchers."

I thought MAGA people do not trust polls? Or you only believe polls when you like the polling results. Kind of like elections. You only trust election results when your candidates win?

I dont know the definition of MAGA, but I'm a conservative libertarian, and I distrust polls no matter what they say. Nearly all are done by the Leftist fake news media.

However, I also read that 9 out of the 12 broken voting machines were in the most conservative areaas w/in this county, which caused long lines, & people left w/o voting. Poll workers were telling voters to go to Blue areas of the County because there were no lines there.

In the end, the Pubs took over the House, & that win will pay huge dividends over the next 2 years...let the investigations begin.

It seems akin to another poll we once discussed: while the majority of those polled were saying that their own financial situation was good, they opined that other people were not doing well, which led to much clutching of pearls by Republicans.

Again, where did you read that? You've been called out on this misinformation before. It's simply untrue: https://apnews.com/article/fact-chec...P-879285578892

If Republican-heavy areas had longer lines do you think it may have anything to do with the paranoid simpletons being brainwashed into being afraid of mail-in voting? Your conspiracy theory is completely baseless. Quit repeating it.

Which leads to what we'll call The Election Denier Conundrum:

1. We want elections to all happen in one day since somehow that reduces fraud!
2. Election results always need to be audited and investigated to ensure there is no fraud!

Lots of wanting it both ways around here.

In exit polls voters list their top concerns for this nation being inflation, crime, immigration, gun policy, and abortion. Those issues pretty much ate up the pie graph.

Yet I keep seeing the same cast of characters in this forum practically foaming at the mouth that their narrow majority can get to work on investigations into the other political team and whatever bizarre angle about child gender identity. Politics is more like college sports to them, gotta score some goals against the other team to cheer for.

Why does Maricopa County have these issues? The polling stations close down for hours due to technical errors, days to count ballot, USB drives found with vote count information that doesn't tie out to the reported totals. It doesn't take a genius to anecdotally arrive that Maricopa is basically Florida light. Tie that into that it overwhelmingly voted for Trump in 2016...
