Can Republicans win elections without cheating?

In a word....NOPE.


They are the worst at gerrymandering, voter suppression, purging voter rolls, lying about fraud, getting caught being fraudulent.

So nope. They cannot win without cheating.

As the poll only stated elections - I answered hell yes as the only way one could believe Republicans can't win elections is if you're utterly oblivious to how huge swaths of America vote. Now if you had asked if Trump could win without cheating my answer would be different. But there are many many elections where there isn't even a Democrat on the ballot as it isn't worth their time - just like there are many elections where there is no Republican. My county had to beg a Republican to run for county commissioner as literally no one filed as the chance of them winning is exactly zero.

"Here's exactly what he said:

"They want $3.5 billion for something that will turn out to be fraudulent, that's election money basically. They want $3.5 trillion -- billion dollars for the mail-in votes, OK, universal mail-in ballots, $3.5 trillion. They want $25 billion, billion, for the Post Office. Now they need that money in order to have the Post Office work so it can take all of these millions and millions of ballots...

" ... Now, if we don't make a deal, that means they don't get the money. That means they can't have universal mail-in voting, they just can't have it. So, you know, sort of a crazy thing. Very interesting."

Let's be very, very clear about what Trump is saying here.
1) Democrats want funding in a coronavirus relief bill for the Postal Service.
2) They want that money so that the USPS can adequately deal with what is expected to be a major surge in mail-in and absentee balloting due to concerns about in-person voting spreading Covid-19.
3) Trump refuses to give them that money -- or include it in any sort of deal -- because, without it, there won't be the ability for the people to cast more mail-in ballots, or -- and this is really important -- for election officials to effectively count them all.
So, yeah.

(And that's putting aside the fact that in blocking the coronavirus bill because of the money allotted for the Postal Service, the President is blocking a whole lot of other things, including increased education funding and rent/mortgage assistance, that many people in the country badly need.)

This is the President of the United States purposely trying to make it harder for votes to be counted.

Why? Because he believes that mail-in balloting is ripe for fraud....

In one, Loyola Law School professor Justin Levitt tracked US elections from 2000 to 2014 in search of voter fraud, or, as he put it, "specific, credible allegation that someone may have pretended to be someone else at the polls."

How many examples did he find? Exactly 31 -- out of more than 1 billion instances. 31! (That's an infinitesimally small number). That's not to say that each of those 31 instances of attempted voter fraud isn't worth an investigation. We don't want any voter fraud. But it is to say that 31 instances out of more than 1 billion is nothing anywhere close to widespread voter fraud."

The cheating just smacks of desperation and fear. 

They probably could with honorable viable candidates with good platforms. Trouble is that they know they do NOT have those candidates.
