    This is the problem with being full of shit. You’ll magnetically attract people to your organization that are also full of shit, and then somehow when it’s you on the receiving end, it’s not so much fun anymore, is it?

    Anyone know where to join Elon’s effort? If you’re telling me I could be paid to walk around neighborhoods doing nothing while taking Elon’s money and negatively effect Trump’s canvassing… that sounds like a great hobby for a few weeks.

    An unusual activity report on the Campaign Sidekick app is auto-generated when a survey is filled out by a canvasser some distance from the location of the target voter’s home. The app has built-in tolerances and generates an unusual survey report after taking into account several factors, such as how quickly the canvasser at issue is supposedly hitting doors and if the responses are recorded more than 100ft away from the target door.

    Sounds mostly reasonable.

    a person familiar with the America Pac operation said: “Sidekick was never expected to handle the auditing of America Pac’s door operation.

    Sounds like they didn’t expect Sidekick’s audits and therefore didn’t fake-proof their data enough.

    Or to be conspiratorial ‘We visited all these homes and they all said they would vote for Trump. Since the vote doesn’t match our canvassing, voter fraud. ‘

      I’m so shocked that I’m questioning reality, major life decisions, my sexual orientation, ALL OF IT.

    A family member has received what we regard as spam texts with political polling questions. She doesn’t reply to any of them. One of them said, after asking her if she would vote for Harris, (paraphrasing) “If you don’t reply, that counts as a No.”

    🤨

    I don’t know if it’s polling fraud or garden variety phishing stuff, but it’s something.

      Those are just designed to get you to click the link which ultimately leads to an “opportunity” to donate to the campaign. It’s just standard political marketing trash, nothing truly nefarious.

    Would be strangely hilarious if Elon was fleecing don for favors (can’t be for money, c’mon, he has it and Donnie has none) and inflating his ego and hopes for reelection while secretly working for the Dems.
