    1. @Yeehaw Partner ya I know. But if he really is guilty of doing this he deserves it by law(not a lawyer lol but still….).
      We both know he won’t serve a day though.

  1. So where are the consequences? This is ridiculous how much voter suppression there is . I’m tired of just talk.

    1. @Ray Lovelace Just remember Ray when the police have their boots on your neck and they are taking you to some secret jail be sure to say “I really want this government to provide me with healthcare and education” ¯_(ツ)_/¯

    2. @jay izquierdo Trump’s the one calling the election with only %65 of the vote in that’s real legit 🤣😂 simp

  2. All votes should be counted. This is a USPS error and these voters should not be silenced for the USPS poor performance. DeJoy should be held personally responsible and charged with election fraud if the votes are not counted.

    1. @J Bowen, PhD that’s stretching the truth and you know it😃 My take is that it wasn’t a problem with mail in voting and now this. The mailing machines were working fine during time for tax forms to go out and all other mail. Believe me Dr’s and Coroner’s have to report death’s so the States no Social Security Administration knows.

    2. @Flash357 Giuliani is a dementia-riddled old man who is a traitor to the US….Vlad, you’re losing all your arguments.

    3. @Allison Schempf I wander how would people react if the electors decided to throw away people’s votes and just elect whomever electors want. Somehow I doubt people would like that

    4. @D S You can’t even acknowledge the fact that mail in ballots will have problems. There are many cases of fraud, and cheating in the past. Big jump in votes for Biden at the last moment is just ridiculous and outrageous. The chart tells it all. You will NEVER acknowledge the truth even if you are slapped with one. You are an EVIL Monster. Just because you hate someone who you don’t even know personally you have to destroy him or her? I wonder what you would say if others did the same thing that you are doing to others. I hope you sleep well at nights. What a disgusting hack….

  3. Oh, what a surprise!
    They ignored a court order to stop stealing an election that gives them total power? Are you KIDDING me?

    1. You have no way of knowing that the mail in votes are pro Biden. What a grand assumption to make. I know plenty who mailed in for Trump.

    2. @Use Full just look the Stats and where the votes come from… but it is over… Biden is through all the way to dc

    3. @Lars Henczi Trump’s premeditated scheme👉invalid the misplaced😂😂ballots, so he can call early the victory🤥🤥😤😤, i bet so🤔🤔

    4. @Use Full Yeah, the guy who told his cult not to mail in their votes is really gonna come out ahead with mail in votes lol

  4. We never know, those ballots probably r the key to SENATE races too!😡 all these ballots needs to be COUNTED! The SENATE & presidency is in the MIDST😡

    1. @Baby Maker how’s that blue puddle coming along?
      Do you Socialist dem0rats still think TX, GA, PA are progressive strongholds?

    2. @Vict0r Mas0n I’m not a socialist, but I am a Democrat. You’re talking about the far left, many of whom probably didn’t vote for Biden.
      As for the states you mentioned, no they’re not progressive strongholds, but there are clear indications many voters in those states want a shift towards the center, even if it’s slightly left of center.
      Center being the operative word. The center-right and the center-left have been pulled apart by extremists on both sides of the aisle.
      Think back to the time when members of Congress could find common ground and work across the aisle. They weren’t all golden years for sure, but the Cold War consensus made American politics less extreme on the right and left.
      Remember the Blue Dog Democrats? How about Patrick Moynihan, who encouraged cooperation?
      Even Nixon supported health care reform and environmental protection.
      I hope that our country became less divisive and begins to heal.
      I respect your right to your own beliefs, and I just wanted to respond with my own rather than just dismiss you altogether.
      Sorry for such a long comment.

  5. THIS is how autocrats steal elections. In elections with such narrow margins in battleground states, 300,000 is HUGE.

    1. @ken adams we won’t know who won for another month. Republicans will keep the senate though and they can’t confirm judges for an illegitimate president 😂

    1. @cathy hagerman yes and they’re still counting. It’s not over yet and I believe Biden will win in the end

    2. @joshydep84 I’am gonna batter trump & there’s nothing superb about him.Trump is a coward & lets everyone around him do his dirty work.Trump has issues & needs to get off Twitter & leave the white house & prepare himself for a long Legal battle cos it’s coming.

    3. THIS IS A LIE. 300K JUST TRACKING RESULTS ARE M.I.A. THE BALLOTS ARE NOT MISSING THAT MANY THEY JUST NEVER GOT SCANNED AS DELIVERED. VICE REPORTED THE TRUTH. BUT HEAD OF USPS IS AT FAULT AS HE INTENTIONALLY IS SCREWING OUR GREAT USPS. IVE SHIPPED THOUSANDS OF PACKAGES 2 A WEEK MIN AND USPS ALWAYS HITS DEADLINE. UPS FEDEX FAILED AT MUCH HIGHER RATE. IF USPS DIDNT EXIST ITD COST YOU 9$ FOR ONE LETTER. USPS=LESS THAN 1$.

    1. Or just force adult naughties on his family, cook them and make him eat them…then force adult naughties on him c;

  6. They did this on purpose. Just because they knew they would’ve lost if everyone was allowed to vote fairly.

    1. Not a new tactic. Repubs have been about suppressing the vote for many elections. They only win with a low turnout.

  7. USA: Welcome to the Club of Dictatorship! 300 K missing mail ballots, in the so called most powerful country in the world?

    1. wanna a bet the majority of the 300.000 are from democrat areas. coincidental no frikin way..
      dejoy doin trump dirty work.

    1. @gregory williams pre-sident-ial in-tegr-ity? sorry i’m not familiar with those words. i only know, powerful, wonderful, amazing, and nasty.

    2. I don’t blame the hard working people of the post office.
      I blame DeJoy who decided to hamstring the postal service.

  8. Chump is not the only one to benefit from the missing ballots. Those who were running for Senate and Congress benefit as well. This is Criminal!

    1. Ummm.. Mail in Ballots have been 75% DEM so far… so they are more than likely DEM support. Look at DeJoy the fraud post master general.

    2. Louis dejoy the postmaster general is a republican fundraiser, trump supporter, and is in hot water for scandals involving donations. You connect the dots. Solid.

    3. @El Guapo Yeah, of course A lot of them are Trump votes!
      Oh wait, Trump told his cultists not to mail in votes and to show up in person. Whoops.

  9. 300k Amercan citizens had their constitutional rights violated, and for that, there must be consequences, justice demands it.

    1. This is what one would think if you do not do your research and only believe published liberal propaganda.
      Another misleading and click-baiting MSNBC article and headline. There are NOT 300,000 missing ballots. The ballots were delivered directly to election offices with minimal USPS handling, in bulk, using a single scan for delivery confirmation. It’s not the USPS that confirms the ballots were received and counted, the individual election offices scan the ballot and email the voter that their absentee ballot was received and counted. This is how my email read …  

      Dear XXXXXXX XXXLL, 

      Good news! Your local board of elections has counted your ballot. 

      You can see this information on our online voter look-up system.

      Thank you for voting. … 

      Furthermore, as reported by another media outlet that actually stated FACTS, this is what was published:

      “… On Tuesday, the USPS told a federal judge that it did not have delivery confirmation scans for about 300,000 ballots. U.S. District Judge Emmett Sullivan ordered emergency sweeps of processing plants, which so far have found missing ballots in the single digits …”.

  10. Of all the corrupt sycophants in this administration, DeJoy is probably the worst. Him and Bill Barf. They belong in Leavenworth.

    1. But what about the thieving dirty street junkies testing positive for Covid? Thats all we need to hear on the news😳

  11. This is just what Trump and DeJoy planned. Why aren’t they being held accountable. Anyone else pressured by a judge with a deadline gets put in jail why isn’t this is an option for them

  12. How ironic is it, that the “racist” president performed better with minority demographics than any republican candidate since the 60s? Solidly blue districts were overturned in the house, including Latino districts on the southern border, and the media is now declaring Cubans aren’t Latino. This should be a wake up call to all conservatives. Fight for the vote of every person regardless of demographic because ideas trump supposed group identity
