    Why are so many people saying that having two different Dan Sullivans on Alaska's ballot is fraud? (self.AskConservatives) [Meta]

Because hes an independent technically. It specifies who the democrat is too.

Pure_Satisfaction233

They do they made sure to distinguish them. Senator sullivans name says Dan s. Sullivan and specifies that hes the incumbent and a republican

Pure_Satisfaction233

Fraud is a crime, so this is more than just a vocabulary difference. What is fraudelent about this?

Pure_Satisfaction233

You're trying to say that a foreign adversary interfering in u.s. elections is equivalent to two guys with the same name running for the same office.

Those aren't equivalent.

Pure_Satisfaction233

Thats a false equivalency to whats going on here but ok.

Pure_Satisfaction233

How is recruiting someone with the same name to run fraudulent? You still havent answered the question.

Pure_Satisfaction233

Both dan sullivans names arent even spelled the same and the incumbents name has his party affiliation and the fact that he's the incumbent listed by his name on the ballot.

With all that knowledge are you insinuating that Alaskan voters are too dense to know the difference?

None of that is fraudulent and you still failed to address how it is.

Then anyone referring to them is a moron or doesnt seriously follow politics/political polling. Most news aims for sensationalism so if they referenced them as a single smoking gun poll and not a list of one of many polls theyre not a serious news outlet.

Or cherry picked them to spread them to people who dont know how to follow polling because theyre not reputable. Ive never heard of them till you brought them up. I dont agree that a few bad polling companies make every poll propoganda. If we had better media literacy education among our population these polls wouldnt be as big of an issue.

As the last guy said if you live around arizona, utah, wyoming, Idaho, colorado etc. Theres lots of lds on there. My friend met his wife on hinge. However I relocated out east and ive only seen one lds person in hundreds of swipes, so it just depends.

Okay so if were delving into different polling companies which I don't know how they collect their info so I cant speak for them then yes some are flat out wrong depending on their sample size and how/where they collect their info and whether their sample is random or not or affected by other biases.

That doesnt mean every poll is garbage and wrong. The two you listed arent even reputable polling companies that serious people refer to.

Historically the party in power always loses seats in the midterms and where republicans have such a slim majority its a pretty safe prediction that theyll probably lose the house.

I think theyll hold the senate even though its still seen as up for grabs.

Pure_Satisfaction233

I think people tend to forget that polls have a margin of error and even in most of these polls that the number wasnt spot on to what the poll predicted or their opponent who was predicted to lose somehow squeaked a win the results still fall within the margin of error.

Polls arent infallible but I think its a little disingenuous to just say they're bad and wrong when the results still do fall within the margin of error even when theyre not 100% spot on.

If republicans win it would just be business as usual for everything else they've done for the last 2 years thus far good and bad. I dont think wed see many resolutions to any of the major issues were facing as republicans seem content to just sit back and let trump do what he wants.

If they keep on their current track record even if they barely squeak a win in the midterms I imagine that probably wont bode well for 2028.

His lmg hits like a truck despite low fire rate and has great destruction. In my opinion its the better option.

Pure_Satisfaction233

Are your "decent site setups" things you saw a tiktoker, streamer or pro do, and so you just copy it without playing off it or understanding why they do it and so it's actually is a net negative to your team?

Pure_Satisfaction233

Literally how you sound.

Pure_Satisfaction233

If they gave the acog back to every defense weapon that had it prior before they removed them i guarantee we'd see tcsg usage drop exponentially.

Pure_Satisfaction233

Till the tcsg became meta most people would run his rifle so youre absolutely right. Kaid's ability and overall kit and c4 are what make him good not just the tcsg.

Pure_Satisfaction233

People used to use the vector all the time on goyo when it had an acog over the tcsg which had the exact same attachments and stats it does now lol.

The acog is the reason everyone is using it. If these other guns on defense never lost their acog the tcsg would never have been meta.

Pure_Satisfaction233

The villains in rainbow six do a little more than care about the environment lol. Also extremist environmental protection groups do exist.

And in the book im pretty sure theyre supposed to be a top secret unit that technically falls under nato that only operates if theyre invited into nato nations by the host country.

Every account outside the first account you ever made is a smurf account lmao. Putposely throwing games is crummy behavior and is ruining the game for everyone else on your team. Again if you smurf youre a crappy human being.

Pure_Satisfaction233

Multiple people with 2+ accounts got caught up in the recent ban wave because it was proven they had the same owner so yes they absolutely are lmao. Also purposely throwing games just so you can keep smurfing is shitty behavior and also ruining the game for everyone else.
