One thing that has been a surprise in the wake of this election is the lack of concern over the integrity of the actual vote count. My question is, what if the polls were correct? Does it make any sense that in the last 22 polls conducted there were none showing Trump with a lead in Wisconsin? Not one. Wouldn’t this type of thing require vast right wing coordination? Wouldn’t there have been some sort of effort on the right to convince Trump voters to either tell pollsters their vote was for Clinton or simply refuse to take part? I have not heard of such an effort.
I find it hard to believe that multiple polling outfits all made the same exact polling errors. What is more difficult to believe? That every single polling firm got it wrong or that they got it right and the vote tabulation was manipulated? I am not saying that I have any proof that Russian or any other hackers changed the totals. I am saying that it is easier to believe than the fact that every independent polling company got it wrong.
So, that being said. Why are we not hearing about hand recounts in places like Wisconsin, where we DO have paper ballots which could easily confirm the actual total. If there was any manipulation of the tally it would be in the software of the scanning devices. Why is there no audit of the paper ballots?
Where are the audits? The statisticians confirming that everything looks legit? The investigators digging into the details? The nerds crunching numbers? The pollsters themselves saying “oh shit, we forgot to carry the 2!! OOOPSIE DAISY!! Now I see where we fucked up!” This makes no god damn sense and everyone seems to be accepting it simply as “hm, weird every fucking pollster got it wrong! wow!”
That is all I am saying. What if the pollsters got it right? If the answer to that question goes a certain way, it is the single biggest story in the history of the planet. Yet, no one seems to be raising the question.
