      So from this you are inferring malicious intent?

      This appears to be another effort to mind-read others. It could just as easily be a "get-out-the-vote" effort to try to bolster the voters for one party or the other. Get-out-the-vote efforts are usually staffed by volunteers who may or may not be well trained, may or may not be coordinated to avoid duplication, etc. Assuming that the results were maliciously intended is not, as far as I can see, justified.

        The article ends with a 2 minute video of Minnie Barela, a blind 76-year-old Fort Worth woman, who said a woman recently indicted in connection with an organized voter fraud ring had knocked on her door in 2016 and offered to help her vote.

          You asked for an answer. I gave it.

            To be clear folks - these names have been forwarded for investigation as "possible voter fraud." The statement that 58,000 DID vote" is false. The investigation is not complete. The existence of false duplicates has not yet been ruled out. As usual, the "voter fraud" advocates are getting ahead of the story more than just a bit.

              But it doesn't actually prove/show what you think it proves/shows. You are assuming intent without an ability to show that was actually the case.

              The commentary is not yours - the assumption of intent is.

                It shows exactly what I said. They swamped the registrar's office just before the election with thousands of poorly filled out registrations.

                  To be clear, you're doing some pretty heavy damage control here. The usual "nothing to see here, folks" people are doing their damnedest to cast doubt on the findings. How many "false duplicates" do you think there could possibly be?

                    Which can be due to any number of reasons - not necessarily "a desire to then accuse the registry of intentionally denying the vote."

                    Since you cited this as an example of, "It's almost if they do it on purpose just so they get set aside in order to have something to protest about," I would suggest that you are indeed inferring intent.
