I'm posing a hypothetical for unsecured ballots appearing.

Not sure why multiple posters aren't getting that.

We get it. It's just that, as I explained in my last post, it doesn't matter whether any unsecured ballots actually appear. None did in the last election cycle, but because prominent Republicans and right-wing media figures said that they did, vast swathes of the right wing believed that it was true. It wasn't, but it didn't matter.

So going into 2024, it doesn't mean anything to say that the right wing won't "riot" unless unsecured ballots appeared - because that didn't happen last time, but they rioted anyway. Because they believed it happened, even though it didn't.
