US Erection 12 *AND* 16 *AND* 20 *AND* 22 *AND* 24

The primary goal of this site is to provide mature, meaningful discussion about the Vancouver Canucks. However, we all need a break some time so this forum is basically for anything off-topic, off the wall, or to just get something off your chest! This forum is named after poster Creeper, who passed away in July of 2011 and was a long time member of the Canucks message board community.

I’ve been busy, but I’m impressed! First Jonathan Pie and now John Oliver! :D
You’re learning to enjoy the good things in life. :thumbs:

I’ve watched it now and he’s making valid points. I’ve always been sceptical of voting machines as they introduce more things that can go wrong into the process, and of course a paper trail is a must. I like the way we do it here, voting by placing a ballot in an envelope, having the voter crossed off in the register, the voter handing the envelope to an election officer that checks that there is only one ballot in the envelope (there is a tiny opening at the bottom of the envelope allowing for this) and then placing the envelope in the ballot box while the voter watches.

Interesting to note, btw, that Trump won virtually all the states that use machines that do not create a paper trail.... :hmmm:
The only exception being Pennsylvania.

But it’s easy to remedy! In this election there was a very high percentage of absentee/mail in ballots. They create a verifiable paper trail. Void the results from the paperless machines and just count the mail in ballots! That way we can make sure there is no voter fraud that goes undetected. :drink:

So your news sources are now comedians? Well, at least it's an upgrade :D

Unfortunately comedians make poor investigative journalists. Take the interview with Stan Stanart. The exact same question came up in 2018, for which Stan gave pretty much the same answer:

https://www.click2houston.com/news/2018 ... your-vote/

"We're often told, 'Don't worry. These machines are not connected to the internet.' Then we discover they are," Wallach said. "You're connecting it over a modem. That means you're using the phones. That means you're using the internet."

“Are the Harris County voting machines connected to the internet?” reporter Andy Cerota asked Stanart.

“Never,” Stanart said, adding that it’s only connected to a secure modem. “Where we dial to an old-fashioned landline to one of our four drop-off sites. It's an encrypted line.”


This is not the Internet, this is a direct dial-up to another of their computers owned by the county. You're not connected to the Internet unless your modem dials up your ISP, which then connects to the Internet backbone. There's no ISP involved here.

If Trump does reverse what looks to be a Biden victory, if we thought the endless Russian collusion domination of news cycles was a hilarious story, the next four will be just fucking awesome entertainment.

A Biden win will be boring until the ebony sex tapes come out.
Over the Internet, you can pretend to be anyone or anything.

I'm amazed that so many people choose to be complete twats.

In the meantime, he's creating division in a country full of morons armed to the teeth. If you think it's funny, then you haven't been paying attention. His idiot followers are helping spread a deadly pandemic, becoming the complete assholes they always wanted to be and threatening regular people who just want to count votes. The longer this piece of shit holds out, the harder it will be to have his orange kool-aid slurping sycophants adjust to reality.

Add in that the presidential transition is just being delayed so a man-child can cause havoc in the middle of huge surge of Covid deaths, and you find there is little to laugh at.

It sure is peculiar that the Russians suddenly decided to lay off and butt out in such a crucial election ;)
