1. Why play in a rigged game?
Why? Why bother to get up anymore when your fate has already been decided?

These are the questions people would ask. At least, anyone that knows the issues surrounding the vote. The rest would be indifferent either way as they always have.

5. Yes, thank you for your sarcasm.
If you have a constructive criticism of my post instead of more off-the-cuff remarks, I'd like you to post it.

2. Only if their unwilling to hold the politicians' feet to the fire
If they're lazy -which all Americans are, it may.

Until the true reality and pain of this nightmare is felt, a willfully ignorant public will be lax in doing anything.

3. Turn it on its head.


"We need EVERYONE out to the polls to overcome the fraud."

Works to our advantage whether or not the fraud has been fixed by then.
