If I Did It: Confessions of an Election Rigger [View all]

This week, we found the absentee ballot fraud in Wisconsin, and wouldn’t you know it, it was Republicans doing it. Admitted felon Harry Wait of Racine County fraudulently requested ballots for 10 or so people who were not him using Wisconsin’s amazing and helpful elections website, MyVote.wi.gov. This violated state law, as the Wisconsin Elections Commission pointed out.

Wait’s admitted lawbreaking method fits nicely within the utterly false “2000 Mules” fantasy that is the current fever dream of election deniers.

Why the nonprofits didn’t just drop these postage-paid absentee ballots into the mail, I have no idea. But it apparently was very, very important to the organizations to have their mules stuff the ballots into many different drop boxes all over town in several places. One of those places was Milwaukee, and the team behind the film fed our Assembly Elections and Campaigns Committee a lot of lies about it back in March.

But for funsies, let’s play the If I Did It game–what are the steps I, your humble folkbum, and your not-so-humble Democratic Party Election Rigger, would have taken in order to steal the 2020 Wisconsin election from Donald Trump in the manner now-admitted felon Harry Wait suggests we did.
