Rand Paul Accuses Democrats of Stealing Elections by Targeting Likely Liberal Voters And Encouraging Them to Legally Vote.

And to think this guy is considered to be one of the prime intellectuals in the Republican Party today. One of my former school teachers who calls himself a 3rd party Libertarian but votes 99% Republican absolutely loves Rand Paul and thinks the guy is the best thing since sliced bread.

His Dad was an actual libertarian, for better or worse. He’s just an opportunistic grifter who even created his own organization to credential his status as a medical specialist. Has no clue about what made America great— another incompetent fortunate son.

The question I have is, are they just dropping off the ballots and moving on or are they out in force trying to "help" uniformed voters decide who to vote for? The former is fine, but I would bet that the latter is what he has an issue with. Rightfully so if that is the case.

You can read the article Rand is quoting. 

It's about how Democratic organizations in Wisconsin spent significant money and effort to do things like expanding mail voting, helping people correctly supply valid photo IDs with their votes and to understand the voter ID laws, set up more voter drop boxes, and targeted their efforts and encouraging typical Democratic voter demographics like minorities, young people, lgbtq, women, etc to vote. 

The article, and Paul, is saying that since these organizations were funded by outside money and focused only on supporting Democrats that Wisconsin was "Stolen" from Republicans. 

The article makes it sound like it's reporting on an enormously corrupt shadow operation, but then just describes a system in which Democrats were better funded, organized, and legally engaged with their voter base better than Republicans did  and they aren't happy about it.

Here's how Paul would describe someone stealing from a store.
