A former Trump administration official now running for Congress in New Hampshire voted twice during the 2016 primary election season, possibly violating federal voting law and leaving him at odds with the Republican party’s intense focus on “election integrity”.
Matt Mowers, a leading Republican primary candidate hoping to unseat the Democratic representative Chris Pappas, cast an absentee ballot in New Hampshire’s 2016 presidential primary, voting records show. At the time, Mowers served as the director of former New Jersey governor Chris Christie’s presidential campaign in the pivotal early voting state.
Four months later, after Christie’s campaign fizzled, Mowers cast another ballot in New Jersey’s Republican presidential primary, using his parents’ address to re-register in his home state, documents the Associated Press obtained through a public records request show.
That's the way it seems to be going, Republicans vote fradulently and then complain about Democrats doing it.
Meanwhile, it seems that the states with the highest murder rates are, wait for it, red states:
We found that murder rates are, on average, 40% higher in the 25 states Donald Trump won in the last presidential election compared to those that voted for Joe Biden. In addition, murder rates in many of these red states dwarf those in blue states like New York, California, and Massachusetts. And finally, many of the states with the worst murder rates—like Mississippi, Kentucky, Alabama, South Carolina, and Arkansas—are ones that few would describe as urban. Only 2 of America’s top 100 cities in population are located in these high murder rate states. And not a single one of the top 10 murder states registers in the top 15 for population density.
No surprise there. Projection is how the GOP rolls.

Projection is the Left's main thing.
I'd bet it you broke those murders out by population density, you'd find that they happened in the Blue counties within those red states. Much like the murder rate in Chicago is offset by the fact that the rest of rural Illinois is so low as to be negligible. If you take out Indianapolis and the greater Louisville and Lake County area in Indiana, the same thing occurs
But it's easier to just post the misleading headlines to try to make an inaccurate point.
Yep, that’s our b. Present sources that show the MAGAt’s kill at a higher rate than those pesky dark skinned folks, and he denounces the facts cause they don’t fit his beliefs. He feelz and knowz better than all the reports. Can’t wait to read how he twists the voter fraud proof onto those darned illegal immygrints.
Awaiting sources to refute the links (or do we just trust someone’s feelings?)

Your comment is impressively dim witted, even for you. If you actually read the attached article, the murder rate is broken down on a per capita basis. The states with the highest murder rates are mostly in the South, and except for Georgia don't have blue counties to drive up the murder rate on the ignorant red neck sister banging Trump counties.
The study compares Jacksonville FL to San Francisco. Roughly the same size towns, but the weak, effeminate citizens of San Fran don't find it necessary to kill each other as often a Trump loving Florida.
The better question would be "Why" are the Trumpy states so prone to violence. I'm afraid that Trump is merely a symptom of far deeper issues.
Well, it looks like you have 3 cities in the top 38
30 when it comes to dangerous cities, unfortunately for you, B, none of them are named Chicago
Danville, IL (6th most dangerous city in US):
Violent crime rate: 1,050 per 100,000 people (785 total crimes)
1-yr. change in violent crime rate: +12.3%
Homicide rate: 17.4 per 100,000 people (13 total homicides)
Poverty rate: 16.5%
Rockford, IL (17th most dangerous city in US):
Violent crime rate: 771 per 100,000 people (2,566 total crimes)
1-yr. change in violent crime rate: +21.5%
Homicide rate: 10.8 per 100,000 people (36 total homicides)
Poverty rate: 16.1%
Springfield, IL (28th most dangerous city in US):
Violent crime rate: 667 per 100,000 people (1,369 total crimes)
1-yr. change in violent crime rate: +14.1%
Homicide rate: 5.8 per 100,000 people (12 total homicides)
Poverty rate: 12.2%

Danville, according to the Wiki, is 70% white. Springfield is 75% white. I’m beginning to see a pattern here.
WATCH: Republican explains he voted twice in 2016 to help Donald Trump
Emotion-driven opinions are not facts. To steal a referencial nugget from your own degenerate ingroup, fuck your feelings.
DA: Look a bit deeper and see where in the cities the murders are committed.
Then look at the demographics of who is killed and who is doing the killing.
Then tell me they are Conservatives and voted Republican.
Headlines are all good. But details matter. Try looking at the details. (BTW, Illinois didn't go for Trump)
B,
As usual you have your left and right mixed up. Projection is the right.
A position was posted with facts and research to support it.
As usual you either didn't read or chose to ignore facts as
an annoying and inconvenient detail.
As usual you fired off the usual rightist rhetoric of fake
news or lies.
Eck!
Three Card Monte ~ losing sight of the real issue.
They can only "win" by cheating. Can't win on merit, only cheating. Two cases in a week of clear intent to commit voter fraud as well the commission of the actual frauds, by members of the pretendident's inner circle. These murder stats are bullshit ~ if you wanted to take a deep dive and this is certainly the place to do it cherry-pick how many of those were committed by handguns, guns, apply it as you wish. We all know about liars, damned liars, and statisticians, but there's a fourth category. Flogging that dead horse distracts from the issue at hand: they can only "win" by cheating.
And filling the room up with flatulence so's nobody else can speak ...
Welp, B, the evidence is pretty clear:
In 2020, per capita murder rates were 40% higher in states won by Donald Trump than those won by Joe Biden.
8 of the 10 states with the highest murder rates in 2020 voted for the Republican presidential nominee in every election this century.
The Red State Murder Problem

Dear, dear B....
You're even messing up geography. Louisville (where my family lived for 3 generations...and it's pronounced Luhvhaville, sorta slurred together) is in Kentucky. The other side of the river is New Albany, where my Great-Grandfather Levi was a homeopathic doctor in the late 1800s. Details, details....
Eck! I pointed out that it is not granular enough to provide real data. Based on states, not cities (and how they voted) nor on demographics within the cities.
It is a headline, nothing more. If you bothered to look (and had an open mind) you'd see that the issue occurs in cities that voted Blue, and that the populations that are murdering people in job lots are most definitely not Trump voters.
But keep echoing the bullshit if it makes you feel better. The article (and the fact that you champion it)is a perfect example of projection. You know it, even if you won't admit it. It isn't the average Trump voter population who is doing the murders. Deny all you want, but until you break it down further than "states" the data is useless.
Hide from the facts if it makes you feel all warm and fuzzy.
Bring it on, B. Show us the granular data, how it comes out on the county level. And I’m glad you’re defending the murderers by saying they aren’t Trump supporters, an assertion nobody has ever made here or elsewhere.
Here’s a map of Murder rates(Intentional Homicide)state by state. Knock yourself out explaining it.

B,
Stop with the we didn't do it after over 5 years its worn thin.
You consulted with Faux News and they said bla blah, blaah.
Translated from opposite day newspeak it means deflect, redirect, deny.
And the rest is your still reading in what they tell you to say.
Eck!
Here you go: People in homes with handguns more likely to be killed, major study finds, make of it as you wish ...
