I haven’t read the letter. I don’t know what’s in it. I have no idea.
I’m not quite sure why people think it’s all right for a young man in high school to go into a shower where young girls are. I mean, that just doesn’t make any sense to me. It’s not safe.
I’m not talking about changing what’s inside of a machine. I’m not talking about changing a vote that went one way and making it look like it came another way. I’m talking about a form of cheating that is happening right out in the open.
They’re admitting it out loud that they don’t have to do that to manipulate the results of an election.
