Fraud by the Voter:

  • Voting when ineligible to vote
  • Voting more than once or using someone else’s name to vote
Fraud by an Elections/Campaign Official or Other Individual:
  • Changing a ballot tally or engaging in other corrupt behaviour as an elections official
  • Providing a voter with money or something of value in exchange for voting for a specific candidate or party in a federal election
  • Threatening a voter with physical or financial harm if they don’t vote or don’t vote a certain way
  • Trying to prevent qualified voters from voting by lying about the time, date, or place of an election (voter suppression)

Either I didn't write my comment in perfect English, using perfect grammar ,'cause you have misunderstood it.

And this is what I meant by "The accusation will be pointed at the opposite side, for having committed voter fraud."

Are you kidding me? One is real and the other is conjecture.

Do you listen to yourself? None of this would be necessary if there is a standard voter ID requirement. No mail in ballots. If a person can get their butts to the cellphone store, they sure as hell can get to a polling place with ID.

It is actually very hard for me to believe this is the way elections are conducted in parts of the USA. Here in Canada it is a simple and fool-proof procedure. People come to your door, you are recorded with proof of identity and your name is put on the voting list. You simply show up at poll, prove who you are and vote. The beauty of this system is that there is never any accusations of fraud. It is not rocket science.

Years ago it did require a voter registration card and ID.

Yes I understand that this is something fairly new. I can only think of one reason why anybody would be against such a simple and safe way to have elections without accusations of fraud.

When they show video clip from the Dems rallies-Harris or Obama is only talking bad things around Trump.

When they show video clip from Trumps rallies-He talk about things he wanna do to improve the society and the life of the Americans. Only a few times have I seen him talking bad about Harris.

Here in the UK you are allowed a postal vote after satisfying the authorities of who you are, otherwise to vote in person you must have photo id with you at the time of voting.

It is the same here. Voting by mail, absentee voting or in person voting all require ID.

We are told having a photo ID and being required to appear in person to vote is racist in nature. We are told that some do not have access to computers, transportation or means to registers. Yet, these same folks with disadvantages manage to get to the cellphone store for a phone, the market to but goods and ignore the public libraries that have computers. Not to mention the cellphone is a handheld computer in it's own right. Now, I can understand the homes for the elderly, citizens out of the country and things of this nature. But a flat out no ID to vote is a problem.

This is a sign of a campaign in trouble.

Would love to see an entire rally with both Trump and Harris.
They can't be talking about Trump the entire time
Trump must now and then talk bad about Harris

He does. They both talk bad about each other. However, calling Trump Hitler goes beyond the pale.
