Over the last several decades, the Food and Drug Administration has allowed pharma companies to sell hundreds of drugs to patients without adequate evidence that they work and, in many cases, with clear signs that they pose a risk of serious harm.

I’m a paper ballot and small town guy, I’m not a mega and my life was saved by vaccines. Also I indirectly help people get abortions ( I live in Texas). In all actuality I’m closer to being a communist than anything else.

So, if people can agree that exit polls are off, the next question is why?

If you look at the history of exit polling they are only off, in a historical sense, when there is mass ballot stuffing.

So that leaves either there is cheating or somehow Americans are so exceptional they overturn precedent.

And don’t forget the other stats tests. One of them which sorts the precincts by size and compares the percentage of votes each candidate received. It should be a kind of line. In California it is, in many other states it is not.

So not only do Americans have to be unique, in one way. They have to be exceptional in other ways to explain the other tests, used over the works fur generations.

All of this while the hidden counting of ballots is going on, without enough recounts .

Occam’s razor and all that.
