2026 Election Thread

Before he contracted TDS, I really liked this guy. When he was Governor of NJ, I wrote him a letter about an issue I had at the NJ DMV. It took a while but not only did he answer m y letter, but he had the head of the DMV contact me for my phone number so we could talk about the problem on the phone. He actually did call me. He admitted I was right and the DMV messed up. He gave me his phone number and told me I could call him if I ever had another issue.

Subsequently, the DMV made several changes to their processes. While I can't be certain it was because of my complaints but the changes were in alignment with what I had suggested on the phone call. Christie was a pro-active guy who was not afraid to buck the tide. His press conferences were always contentious as he went right back at the liberal media. I have no idea what happened to him.

By all accounts he was a really solid Governor there.

But he's turned into a complete lardass dipshit since. I wish Jerry would quit chumming up with the rollee pollee fucktard. I can't stand seeing all that lard bounce around the owners box when he goes to games there.

long but interesting analysis on voter fraud, mail-in ballots, etc:




This video features Stephen Gardner and election expert Jovan Hutton Pulitzer discussing concerns regarding the integrity of upcoming U.S. midterm elections. The discussion covers several key topics:

• Election Rhetoric: The pair analyzes comments made by Kamala Harris (0:23–2:23) regarding the SAVE America Act and Republican efforts to change election rules, which Pulitzer characterizes as "rage baiting" and a political strategy to mobilize voters (2:47–6:38).
• Voter Roll Integrity: Pulitzer argues that voter rolls are significantly inflated, citing issues such as the failure to remove deceased individuals or non-citizens from registration lists (3:29–4:05, 8:00–12:00).
• Mail-in Ballot Procedures: The conversation explores vulnerabilities in mail-in voting, specifically regarding "ballot cracking," chain-of-custody gaps, and concerns about ballots being sent to incorrect addresses or empty fields (12:52–17:35).
• Trump's USPS Order: Gardner and Pulitzer discuss a previous executive order attempt by Donald Trump to implement specialized controls through the USPS (17:40–18:07). Pulitzer explains that this move was intended to create an auditable "money trail" tied to election mail, which he argues was a legally sound but time-constrained strategy blocked by the Supreme Court (18:07–24:52).
• Systemic Challenges: The speakers conclude that many technological safeguards (like machines) are less enforceable than mail-related laws, and they emphasize the difficulty of cleaning voter rolls due to the bureaucratic complexity of disparate databases like ERIC (24:52–29:06).
