> Tiny number of people who are actually election deniers

You're not paying attention:

https://www.washingtonpost.com/elections/interactive/2022/election-deniers-running-for-office-elections-2022/

> Nearly 300 Republicans seeking those offices this November have denied or questioned the outcome of the last presidential election, according to a Washington Post analysis. > > Many will win. More than 170 election deniers are running in districts or states where Republicans are expected to win, according to Cook Political Report race ratings and Partisan Voter Index. Dozens more are in competitive races.

Linking an article from the Washington post which is unequivocally a left leaning media outlet isn’t the best example to use against someone else to say “you’re not paying attention”

That’s like someone linking a post from Fox News and expecting you to take it as fact

They're just numbers. Which numbers have the liberal bias?

Lmao the ones Jeff Bezos pumps up, plus I don’t think you want compare numbers and statistics. When you start rattling those off that’s when the left gets mad

So in other words, you cannot dispute anything presented in the source, you can only resort to ad hominem.

Typical conservative.

We're not even talking statistics here. It's literally just counting up names. If you're saying it's wrong, it would be very easy to show that.

No I’m not criticizing the article per say or any of the information presented. Simply saying that posting from a biased news source and then proceed to tell someone there not paying attention is just ironic and funny.

The information is true whether it's published there or anywhere else. If they're not aware of the large number of election deniers in (and running for) political offices, then they've not been paying attention.

It's not like you'd have to be reading The Washington Post to know about it. They're not the exclusive location for this information. The politicians themselves have been saying all of this stuff out in the open.

Sure that’s fine. Again you’re missing the point. Also I really don’t care to argue this matter lol. Like I said before, posting liberal based news links and telling someone there not paying attention is ironic. Regardless of the story content or facts.

That’s how I type. In spurts. Easier for me to get things out than one big long rant. “Not only” was referring to not only have you ignored my point that I’m not arguing election denier BS. But more or less the irony behind the statement of the redditor above, not only that but you also can’t see your own hypocrisy in the left wing political media. But that’s gone over your head a few times now so we’ll just leave it at that.

Good day.

Not only that but it’s an opinion piece and uses buzzwords like MAGA mob, yea so the millions of Americans that voted for him in 16 and 2020 is a “mob”. I wouldn’t trust a letter of that article until it’s verified from a alternative source. Man’s really out here arguing that an opinion piece from a left wing media outlet should be taken as fact. Get a grip FFS

Not only that but the hypocrisy from the left trying to call the right election deniers like there’s wasn’t fishy stuff going on is comical. Trump won without a controversy like this and they stilled rioted and looted. It’s like the left acts like election deniers are insufferable slobs who cry over a fair election while at the same time pretend they didn’t scream trumps not my president for the last 4 years. Again double standard irony

So 300 republicans running for office, and the people voting for them, and the "poll watchers" don't care about this stuff?

A problem is there are people who thought there was compromise with the GOP to begin with..

It seems like we only care about this stuff when it is politically beneficial to do so.
