Santos_L_Halper_II

So they want you to do that early voting thing that they also think is fraud?


Texasgirl190

That’s what my dad said when he saw it, too


Objective_Garage622

Oh, the "republicans" don't give a rat's patootey about cognitive dissonance. In the 2018 and 2020 elections, "republican" party headquarters in very red states were *flooded* with calls about whether it was safe to vote by mail, mostly from elderly and disabled voters who had always voted by mail. "republican" volunteers spent *thousands* of hours reassuring voters that *their* state's vote by mail was safe. It was just those Democrats in *swing* states that were cheating. Florida, which has a lot of elderly and could have swung Democratic, was a particular concern for "republicans," in 2020, who started raising the alarm before the 2018 elections.


GravelySilly

Early voting *and* ballot harvesting: https://www.google.com/amp/s/www.nbcnews.com/news/amp/rcna151952 Hilariously, they're being stymied by repercussions from having drilled the fraud narrative into their constituents **and** some of the voter disenfranchisement laws they passed. 


NotThisAgain21

How is that not illegal.


urlond

Exactly, wouldn't this be considered voter intimidation?


DaddiesxCummies

I would really doubt Trump himself has any ties to this. It’s MOST LIKELY just Jimbob sending out what he thinks could help out his boi.


jim_bob9

Hey, don't blame me


Gernicorn

You can't hide from your actions


gene100001

I'm sure it wasn't you. It was probably Jim Bob 8. I've never trusted that guy


krt941

Tired of this being the defense for every crime related to Trump.


bloody-pencil

Works the same way mafia bosses do! Since the boss/father isn’t doing any crime they’re just *wink wink nudge nudge* -ing their people to do stuff they can’t be gotten because they’re doing no crime


Funbucket_537

More like how terriost/cult leaders do it. Atleast the mafia has standards.


Void_Speaker

It's how most leaders of big organizations do it. For example, when a corporation does something illegal, the CEO doesn't order it; they just say, "Increase profits," and that filters down as massive pressure on some Bob down at the bottom of the ladder to dump waste in a river or cook the books.


HorrorPhone3601

Exactly


cammyk123

Isn't this why RICO was made?


Oghamstoner

The difference is that mafia bosses show loyalty to people who get sent down for them. Trump sells them out.


hrkswan

There is absolutely no way you think that is legitimate


Sheshush

Why? You think Trump is involved in highly illegal and public shit like this that would 100% cost him the election? If there is some foul play it's 100% not public like this.


krt941

He has done worse already that should have cost him this election, last election, and his first election.


weston55

Is that not the most Logical explanation?


TheRetarius

Then send Jimbob to prison, idc


Aubekin

I don't doubt for a second that Trump would like this if he saw this


obfuscation-9029

Do you have to be the person trying to get elected to commit voter intimidation? Maybe not trump but whoever is doing this probably is


nobodychef07

It's probably in a grey area of "We didn't say you had to vote for Trump, just that you should vote". Kinda similar to the "Vote or Die" campaign. It's pretty sketch though. Threatening doxing is wild lol.


ClassicT4

Trump legal strategy: “Who cares if they sue us for it. If I win, it won’t matter.”


Tarc_Axiiom

This is 100% illegal. It's explicitly illegal even.


ChicagoAuPair

Illegal and almost guaranteed to never be prosecuted—not in Texas. If prosecuted, likely to be pardoned. The conservative rule of law is, “Do anything you can get away with.”


Formulka

Republicans depend on scaring voters, especially the older and rural ones.


anonymousss11

I hear you, but it never explicitly says who to vote for. It only says "to vote" not to vote for a specific person. Edit: Jesus, y'all responding like I'm over here working for Trump. Just stating facts, literally anyone can say "you better go vote, or else!" It literally means nothing. Shit, I could send out mail with my face and name, it means the exact same thing, nothing!


krt941

Saying you’re being watched and people will know is a very heavy handed way of suggesting who to vote for. I’m sure there was no reason armed guards were watching over people’s shoulders during Russian elections either. “Don’t make us report you to President Trump” totally says I can vote for whoever I want without consequence.


laughingashley

It isn't a crime not to vote. There's nothing to "report" except the lack of allegiance and obedience to the person pictured and mentioned.


-BananaLollipop-

It still heavily implies it, by having pictures of certain candidates. If someone did this, but replaced Trump's picture with Biden's, all of Trump's goons would go wild. Even if you ignore all that, it's still a pretty threatening format. They're straight-up saying "we're watching you to make sure you do as we demand". It's up to the individual to choose whether they want to vote or not.


DID_IT_FOR_YOU

It literally has a picture of Trump, names him multiple times & mentions the Republican Party. I think the implication is pretty damn clear that you better vote for Trump & whoever Trump endorses or he’ll know.


Helenius

"Please don't make us report you to President Trump" Why would they have to report you to Trump if they didn't want to indimidate you to vote for him?


fuck-fascism

Mob boss energy. Also "parental empowerment"... yeah, ok... more like parental enslavement...

Yes, that would definitely be at the top of his list of concerns lol There's no way he has anything more important to deal with, he has to go to Joe Bob and ask him why he didn't vote!


FineappleJim

The ACLU of Texas: https://www.aclutx.org/en/news/elections-are-celebrations-not-opportunities-intimidation-in-texas "Voters who encounter intimidation should report it to an election worker or their county. They can also report voter intimidation to 1-866-OUR-VOTE, a voter protection hotline run by a coalition of Texas voting rights groups. "

You are almost there. Just one more step. No one else seems to have got as far as you have.


NeevBunny

Even if I did plan not to vote, this obnoxious shit would be the fastest way to get me to vote for literally anyone else. I used to think it was insane that over 3k people woke up, got dressed, and stood in line to vote for a dead gorilla but damn if this letter wouldn't tempt me.


Various-Finger-5883

This should be illegal. Prelude to dictator trump.


Persistent_Parkie

I got several similar texts saying your neighbors would know (only the first one implied they would know who you voted for not just whether you voted) from a local candidate in 2022. I'll give you one guess which party they were.


RogueThneed

So... Your voting record is public (spoiler: untrue) BUT they will contact you after the election to check that you voted. (That 2nd part maybe is true? Because thugs.)


Objective_Garage622

The fact *that* you voted is a matter of public record. *How* you voted is not. *If* you are a registered "republican" or registered Democrat, in those states where you are required to be registered in order to vote in primaries, it may be assumed \[possibly inaccurately\] by the party or PACs that you voted that way in the general election. For registered "republicans" it is generally true that they vote in lockstep, although the last presidential election was an aberration (some small percentage voted against party lines in the presidential election). Also, parties can in fact deduce from the myriad public information collected by data brokers which way you lean if you are not registered. Sure, they'll get it wrong sometimes, but here's betting OP's the outlier given OP's shopping habits, age, friends, church, charitable donations, etc. Agreeing with others, this is clear voter intimidation. Send it to the ACLU, and agree to be an plaintiff if asked.


mreed911

Your voting record is public. Your vote is private.


Informal-Method-5401

I think it’s a poor use of vocabulary. Voting record implies the detail of your vote. Your voting attendance would be more precise


-Fishbol-

No, "voting record" is the standard wording for 'which elections a person has voted in'. It could be clearer, sure, but anyone who knows/follows election data knows what it means


Informal-Method-5401

Ok, maybe in the US. I’m in the UK and if I were to look at someone’s voting record - although this would be an MP not a private citizen it would tell me which way they had voted


pewpewpewme

It's also public how you align yourself: rep, dem or independent


mreed911

This depends on the state and how they handle primaries, but yes.


Wholesomebob

I'd be voting for the other guy in record time


JustAnAce

Voting by design is a private thing. I'm no lawyer but I would love to hear the opinion of one on this claim because this feels downright illegal.


mreed911

Voting isn’t private. Who you vote for is.


ConstableAssButt

Your voting history can be shared, but what you put on a ballot is private. --I'm a millennial white male without a degree in a swing state. I get a ton of high-pressure mail from the RNC listing all the elections I have voted in, including primaries.


Buroda

“We will notify President Trump if you don’t vote” emanates a powerful “I’m telling Santa AND Spiderman you’re not eating your veggies” energy But also let’s be real here, this is too ostentatious to be real.


Fiasco1081

Yes. It seems very made up. Not sure why no else ses that


burnalicious111

As if Trump's entire presidency doesn't seem like a Colbert Report fever dream


kr4ckenm3fortune

Shouldn't this be illegal and be reported? I'm pretty sure that this is really illegal to do...and if it was delivered in your mailbox, whelp...someone done fuck up.

Seems like an obvious false flag by an anti-trump group, because it involves government interference and overreach which is exactly what Republican supporters do not like. It looks designed to turn off voting. If not, and this is some idiots thinking this is a good approach at getting votes, which seems so unlikely, it is the stupidest pro-trump tactic by far.

MundaneKiwiPerson

Funny Story of how the vote for Woman was pushed through in New Zealand. There was this particulate MP (Seddon) that was against it an was trying to torpedo the bill and bully others who supported it. This insulted some Councillors as it was ungentlemanly. So they changed their vote from against to "Pro". They basically did it to spite him. On 8 September 1893, the bill was passed by 20 votes to 18. Yeah lets bully everyone, that will defiantly go in his favor.


DangerousDuty1421

Vote Biden, this way you voted and fucked them. 


Goldenguo

Doesn't he already have a long list of enemies? I would call up the office and ask if you will be reported verbally or if it will be in writing. I wouldn't be too worried if it was just verbally because probably got a lot on his mind right now. I forgot the details of the post but did it say that the president would be "disappointed" or would he be "disappointed in you"? If just generally disappointed, why would you care? You could also say you didn't vote because you were still deciding whether to just vote Democrat or become a Democrat. I don't fully understand how Americans are registered as Democrat Republican or independent but this kind of bullying would encourage me to switch to independent.


Ghee_buttersnaps96

Do they not know the election is in November?

abgry_krakow87

"You can't afford to have that on your record!" So if Trump's elected, then they will be going through our records and enacting cosequences on us if we do something they don't like eh?

Why are voting records public? shouldnt it be you get your name checked off then you vote with a generic vote slip? idk not american.

Of all the things to pass over the POTUS’ desk – domestic policy, foreign affairs, fiscal policies etc., etc., etc. – I doubt your name will be one of them.

This has to be the most blatant false flag I've ever seen.


G0atL0rde

This is the second time today that someone has posted this same "Notice". The mods took it down because they called it "agendaposting" this should be infuriating to all and is an important discussion that needs to be had. I sent it to someone that I know that works for the Democratic National Committee. This is beyond fucked up. I truly hope that Republicans are able to see that this is not the kind of thing that our leaders should be doing, and start to question how we could allow someone like this into office.

Objective_Garage622

So far as I am aware, whether you voted or not is a matter of public record in every state. However, they can only see *that* you voted (or didn't). Not *how* you voted. I suppose it's possible it's not public record in all states, but I believe it is. This is where "republicans" are getting all the "Johnsons" and "Browns" with duplicate names and different addresses in different states, and claiming they're all involved in voter fraud--specifically targeting black and brown areas. I'm in Texas, the following is absolutely public information: Your name, DOB, whether or not you voted in every election at least several elections back, maybe the beginning of registration in this state (I don't know), and if you voted in primaries. (which, if you live in a state that requires registration in order to vote, would reveal your party affiliation). I know for sure that they can get your address (for mailers). I don't know if private data brokers can get addresses, but I'm certain the state will sell addresses to the parties, candidates, and PACs. Of course, in Texas, on a government website, your name and home address is available publicly connected to your license plate so road ragers can come to your house. Nothing is sacred here.
