  • @Ariana321 If you are so aware of election fraud then you must be aware that as of 2012 the Republican primaries have been almost exclusively been tallied outside of the country, for the first time in history. This way their is no chance that the votes are being double checked or that they are accurate. Their has been numerous complaints where it has been proven that thousands of votes have been issued under the names of dead people.(953 in one case) Little has been done in response to this.
