There is no functional difference between people looking for rampant voter fraud and ghost hunters.

BREAKING NYT: A month after the Trump admin declared without evidence that thousands of noncitizens had illegally registered to vote in Nevada, DHS officials were unable to substantiate the claim — finding just 185 potential anomalies, not the 16,000 claimed last month.

One difference: ghost hunting led to some funny movies for Abbott & Costello, Bob Hope, Dan Aykroyd, Sam Ramis et al. And some brilliant cartoons from Fleischer, WB, and Disney. Not to mention Scooby Doo.

I think ghost hunters usually have blurry photographs to go with it and other circumstantial things like books being knocked off shelves at all times to support their arguments.

I did one of those GH once out of curiosity and it was the most boring night of my fucking life. I did notice though, that quite a few of the people involved had recently lost someone. It was all a little bit sad.

🇨🇦 Yet it still doesn’t shut them up about voter frauds They are the biggest voter criminals. If they lose midterms, the 💩 will ‘try’ to declare the elections null and void. Be ready !

Senator Ossoff is leading the way. Every Democratic representative should stand up and speak: first supporting Ossoff, second castigating Trump, and finally calling for Trump's immediate resignation. Democrats who merely stand on the sidelines and complain are failing in their duty to the country.

Nah I knew some professional ghost hunters back in the day, I don't believe in ghosts but they were good people and I very much enjoyed the time I spent with them

Optimizing profit (harming life increasingly horribly, without remorse) has become SO obvious even children are making millions selling self-loathing and self-loathing fixes to each other "Resources" are corpses It's the "Greed DOES cause plagues" part of the story #ArmageddonCapitalism 💲 >💚 = 🔥🌎

TRUMP IS TRAFFICKING MIGRANTS The Florida-based Fanjul family, is the largest...landowner and employer in the Dominican Republic...Fanjul hosted a fundraiser...grossing...$50 million...for the Trump campaign...Florida Crystals, owned by the Fanjul Corporation, donated $3,000,000 to the [MAGA] PAC.

I wouldn't be so dismissive of paranormal activity. Many people have had first hand experience with 'ghosts' and researchers at IONS have established telepathy, pre-cognition etc as scientific facts.

Au contraire. A miniscule amount of voter fraud has been found, but no ghosts. And we can expect to find a tiny amount of voter fraud in the future, but there’s no objective reason to expect the discovery of ghosts. Finally, neither ghosts nor voter fraud has changed the outcome of an election.

Arizona "revelations" by elected denier Justin Heap Found anomalies in older driver license records Leading thousands of native born Americans ( incl Spouse) threatened with loss of voter regstration These are more likely poor paperwork shuffling by those wishing ( & hoping) to discover ghosts

Big difference. The MAGA election deniers are knowingly repeating lies to undermine faith in democracy. Ghost hunters are just engaging in a harmless hobby.

I love the headline. "...Registered to Vote." It's just like their "100s of dead people on the voter list!!!!!!" Ok? So fucking what? The real problem is either of those categories of persons actually fucking votes!!! Who gives a fuck if they're still on the rolls??

Since I'm thinking of the six degrees of election deniers, I don't think I ever learned how the ghost hunter and truck driver, Jesse Morgan, ever met up with Phill Kline.
