Giuliani on rigged election: 'Dead people generally vote for Democrats'

Source: CNN

Washington (CNN)Top Donald Trump adviser Rudy Giuliani claimed Sunday that Democrats could steal a close election by having dead people vote in inner cities, while vice presidential candidate Mike Pence said the ticket will "absolutely accept the result of the election."

"I'm sorry, dead people generally vote for Democrats rather than Republicans," the former New York City mayor told CNN's Jake Tapper on "State of the Union." "You want me to (say) that I think the election in Philadelphia and Chicago is going to be fair? I would have to be a moron to say that."

But he did say the amount of cheating would only impact extremely close races -- noting, for example, if either Trump or Hillary Clinton won Pennsylvania by "5 points," the cheating he alleges would occur would be negligible and not change the outcome.

Giuliani was backing up Trump, the Republican nominee, who has repeatedly claimed on the campaign trail -- without providing evidence -- that his race against Clinton is being rigged.

Well I don't know about that Herr Guiliani.

I do know that dumb fucks generally vote for Republicans rather than Democrats, Rudy.

we can only imagine what favors went back-forth. But neither has done a favor for the other in this election. The Dastardly Duo only makes me think that Ghouly knows where some of Trump's bodies are buried.

IF that were true, poor dumb Rudy, it would only prove that dead people are more reasonable, more logical and much more intelligent than rethugs, which I believe anyway. What I can't buy into, is your delusion, or outright blatant lie, that dead people vote.

Politicized Supreme Court justices generally vote for Republicans. Having a President win 5-4 is the way it is done now. Fucking around with electronic ballots, disenfranchising black people and students is the way it is done now. Oh, and remember Florida?

It's a brave new world Rudy. Get your head out of your ass.

asshole

many southern election outcomes are more Republican than their local population would let on due to a lot of disgusting nonsense at the local level.

Let them say it's rigged. Maybe we should have a nation-wide investigation into local election processes and voter rolls everywhere. It would expose some shit they would rather keep hidden.

This has been their MO for my entire lifetime. Claim the Democrat could only win by cheating.

To Republicans the Oval Office is THEIRS. It absolutely BELONGS to them. They will NEVER admit the Democrat is legitimate.

They haven't changed their playbook in 100 years.

typed in "dead people voting" into google image search. Wow. A plethora of badly made memes and cartoons about dead people voting Democrat.








My question is.....are Republicans saying that they are too stupid to match this supposed fraud going on? Or are they saying they are too morally superior to ever try that?

Anyways, the whole idea of millions of Democrat leaning voters all going out of their ways, risking long jail sentences and fines, to try and (I'm not sure how) vote once and then go to another precinct and say you are some person that you know of that died. Just to get one more vote for your candidate in a sea of maybe 10's of thousands of other votes....is preposterous. And wouldn't effect the outcome anyways.




Just stupidity.

Any added votes would be such a miniscule portion of the total amount that it would make no difference at all and the penalties of being caught would be major.

Only an imbecile would try to do something so dangerous and ineffective.

Like Florida in 2000. That was rigged and it was all that mattered. Gore wins FL, Gore wins the election. He won the popular vote and one state's shenanigans tipped the whole balance.
