    “The Democrats have given us another option. You don’t have to register to vote,” Musk’s mother wrote in the Oct. 5 post. “On Election Day, have 10 fake names, go to 10 polling booths and vote 10 times. That’s 100 votes, and it’s not illegal. Maybe we should work the system too.”

    Yes it’s illegal.

      Does she think you can just add a bit of facial hair and no one will know it’s the same person, like they’re trying to trick Vader or something? Poll workers aren’t fucking stupid, you’re going to get recognized.

      I think if I was accusing the mother of the richest asshole on the planet, who literally sued advertiser for not advertising after telling them, “fuck off,” I’d be pretty careful how I said it, too.

    10? 100? Those are rookie numbers, some elections I’ll spend my entire day voting, 8 hours a day if I can.

    I can get my voting time down to <30 seconds if I bring a pre-filled out stack of ballots.

    If only I lived in a swing state, I’m just voting for myself over and over
