As if 2020 hasn't done enough so far, Belarus is on deck for riots

Belarus' "president," who has won every election since 1991, has once again won with 80% of the vote. The opposition candidate is in hiding since they're arresting her staff and family. People are rioting in the streets because they know it's a fake election.

The claim of a landslide vote appeared to increase the danger for Tikhanovskaya, who went into hiding Saturday evening after nine of her campaign staff were arrested by the government.

Observers pointed to record numbers of early votes as a likely sign of ballot stuffing, with nearly 40% of eligible Belarusians reportedly casting their ballots before polls opened on Sunday. Several polling stations ran out of ballot papers on Sunday as they appeared to surpass 100% of eligible voters.
One video from a polling station appeared to show a member of the electoral commission climbing down a ladder from a second-storey window with a bag assumed to contain voting slips.

Tikhanovskaya,
I don't know about all the rest that is going on, but this person is in desperate need of a nickname.

Hopefully the people will unite and get it together. I want Lebanon to become a healthy nation.

That is some Louisiana-level shite right there. "Vote early and vote often!"

We are all interconnected. If Lebanon can get through their riots then there is hope for the Belarussians to prevail and overcome the differences with each other and the riots will end. People need hope.

The President of Belarus was the only person in that country's government to vote against the dissolution of the Soviet Union.

I had a guy that worked for me that was from Belarus. He would travel back every six months to record his grandmother talking about living in the USSR and life under communism. At least that’s what he said he was doing. After one trip, he just never came back.

They are also probably working for the DNC

I remember when some poor sap’s hot air balloon drifted over the border and a Belarus fighter jet shot it down

I met a girl named Rochelle there. She made a long journey from Milan to Minsk.
