The result of the last election has been hotly contested to this very day, and it looks like similar discontent could be afoot in 2024. Questions about the results in 2020 were called a “conspiracy theory” by some, and truth by others. But it should be noted that already, people are complaining about voting irregularities.
First things first – this is absolutely not an accusation that Dominion is deliberately causing this to happen. I’d never dare to do this after the threat they posted on X.
Dominion is closely monitoring claims around the Nov. 2024 election and strongly encourages use of verified, credible sources of info. We remain fully prepared to defend our company & our customers against lies and those who spread them. Get the facts: https://t.co/5EzrG8vIlT.

On the other hand, I’ve never liked a pre-emptive effort to stifle conversation.
Let me be extremely clear: I’m only pointing out some people’s anecdotal reports of their early votes being switched. Whether or not this is true is up to the courts to determine, not for me to determine.
Georgia
In Georgia, controversial Congresswoman Marjorie Taylor Greene shared that she was told by someone who had firsthand experience with their ballot being printed out and the vote not being for the candidate they had chosen.
? CHECK YOUR BALLOTS GEORGIA!
Reports from Whitfield County, GA that Dominion machines are flipping votes.
This is exactly the kind of fraud we saw in 2020 and it cannot be tolerated.
I will be working to investigate this issue and ensure the integrity of our elections in… https://t.co/1rYyQAhE6E pic.twitter.com/0yaBBINPC3

Tennessee
In Tennessee, a similar story has been circulating, though, in a twist, it was reported that people are seeing their votes changed from Democrat to Republican.
?BREAKING: Election officials in Shelby County, Tennessee, are receiving numerous reports from voters claiming that the voting machines are flipping their selections.
Did we not learn from 2020?

Here, the mainstream media seems to indicate that people don’t understand how to use a voting machine.
Texas
In Texas, the accusation is more forceful. Allen West, the head of the Dallas County Republican Party, issued the following statement.
So, let’s review.
At least three states of which I am aware are reporting issues with people seeing that their votes are not being attributed correctly. You can do a few things to ensure that your vote is counted correctly.
- Follow all instructions for using voting machines. In many cases, you need to click on the candidate’s name and not the box beside their name.
- When your ballot is printed out, don’t just blindly hand it in. Check it and make certain your choices are all displayed accurately.
- If you have an issue, speak to both a poll worker AND a supervisor to report it. If possible, get proof that you registered your complaint.
Regardless of who we are voting for, we each bear responsibility in this election to make certain that our votes are being counted accurately.
If this election is contested…
I’ve already written an article warning that the election results could cause mayhem across the country. But there will be other effects too.
For example, if the Democratic candidate wins, the economy could respond and the prices of gold and silver could be driven up dramatically. If you are considering investing in tangible assets like precious metals, I strongly advise you do it before the election to get the best possible price. You can go here to contact ITM Trading, the only dealer of precious metals that I personally use.
Stock up at the grocery store before the election. You don’t want to have to be out there in the midst of riots grabbing a gallon of milk and some Oreos.
Order anything you might need on Amazon now, otherwise your order could be delayed due to post-election chaos.
Be prepared for some contention. A lot of readers have already shared that they’ve taken time off work during the election and immediately afterward, just in case either side feels they have reason to believe the results were unfairly tallied.
Regardless of how this race turns out, a whole bunch of people are going to be extremely unhappy. My advice is to prepare accordingly, check your ballot carefully, and then stay away from places prone to protests for the duration.
What about you?
Have you heard any stories about early voting not being accurate? Can you tell us about it?
Let’s discuss it in the comments, preferably without getting Daisy sued.
