@ Xpacetrue: Nice try, buddy. Next time don’t rely on purely partisan sources for your claims. https://www.snopes.com/25-million-fraud-votes-for-clinton/

Maybe the candidates themselves were not allowed to vote, which would make a class size of 27. Incidently, don’t look too much for realism in this arc, it just serves to at out some rivalries between the characters and use the cute insignificant school level to crack some election jokes. A realistic Scenario wouldn’t have an election campaign and most likely not four candidates either. The typical election for class representative is fife to ten minutes of debate and awkwardness during which two reluctant volunteers are persuaded to do the job, typically both stating that they only apply if no one else wants to do it and would rather only be the substitute. Then the class votes which of them should be the representative and which the substitute.
@ Xpacetrue:
Since you people keep bringing the orange baffoon up, the claim of voter fraud has been evaluated by Politifact and got a “Pants on Fire” rating. Politifact is a neutral evaluator of truthfulness in political statements, and provides references which back up their evaluations.
Here’s the conclusion:
“Actual instances of voter fraud — such as voter impersonation, ballot stuffing and bought votes — are extremely rare, often unintentional and not on a scale large enough to affect a national election. Trump’s alarming claim, once again, is without proof.”

Powree has been pretty consistent with the double desks in these classrooms, and it generally seems they’re in a 3×4 arrangement; given 12 desks that’d be 24 possible seats. And I think we know at least half the students by now.
@ Ken:
Nice try. But anyone who trusts Snopes articles implicitly – as if they don’t have an agenda of their own – might as well be watching CNN. Try Googling, “Snopes Debunked” and “Debunking Snopes”. You will see a lot of interesting search results. Do you know who actually owns and controls Snopes? Do you really? And who’s side of that story should we trust? I may read and watch some biased stuff, but at least they don’t try to pass themselves off as an “unbiased” source.
@ Xpacetrue:
The Iron Bank of Braavos?
@ MidoriLuna:
Which is how she got the seventh vote to win.
@ Raen:
hahahah top comment right there
She is a future hillary clinton in the making right there!
@ Gallavett:
Yeah, tried to catch myself with that second comment after the first, unfortunately they don’t allow comment editing. But yes, you were right!
@ Titan:
lol. Nah. It’d only be 2016 all over again if after using bogus examples to prove how the election’s rigged, she somehow won.
Yeah, and I’m betting it was the russian sitting right next to the victor. (◔_◔)
@ someguy:
I was in a class with 23 students. I’m from Germany though
@ Xpacetrue:
I am Iffy on the FOX news part, since they have a nasty Track Record for being biased… But then again, most News stations always seem to try and ‘Fix’ news to benefit themselves more.
But you have a point. With all the hate being thrown around during and After the elections, it’s funny how everyone who wants Hillary in Power says ‘The Russians are helping Trump’ when the only thing he’s trying to do is be on good terms With them. I mean, when the Elections were going on, ISIS was stated to be on the rise, But the moment Trump gets into Power? Suddenly, ISIS Suddenly loses Steam and are easy pickings compared to the Threats they were stated to be.
Strange, Yes?
Also, if I remember, Hillary stated that if she lost, she said she was going home in defeat, But the Moment she DOES, Suddenly, she says she was ‘Fighting Back and staying’. Still, anyone who had to deal With her Reign would want NOTHING to do With her. It’s the newbies who want her in Power, not those who had to Watch Hillary drag USA to The ground.
LOL

Voter Fraud Happens But not at the amount claimed By trump or Fox.
These Figure have been called out on multiple occasions By More than one or two Sourses
And Pass themselves off as “unbiased” ARE YOU KIDDING ME?
everyone on the planet is Biased if you think otherwise i feel bad for you.
Trump a bad president, Clinton would have been a Bad President in her own way.
Was there Voter fraud Probably was it beyond even 1k highly unlikely are you Bias Most certainly
am i Bias Yes am i a sheeple No. This Debate is getting pretty silly like talking to a Religios mule.
we can all stop talking about it. you have been proven wrong by more than one person but you will not give up your belief but you can shut it and so can we but i doubt that will happen.
Trump and his family are a threat to animals. They need to go.
@ Xpacetrue:
What flavor *is* the Kool-Aid, man, and is it tasty?
@ Xpacetrue:
Also, you *do* know that while actual voter fraud was discovered, it was in The Nacho Nazi’s *favor*, don’t you? That man is so crooked, he makes a dog’s hind leg look straight. Of course, if you actually checked anything that wasn’t in your echo-chamber, it might change your mind, and even if I came up with arguments that convinced you, you wouldn’t believe me, anyway, because of backfire effect, so what ever.

Isn’t this more along the lines of a majority vote, considering Sandra got the most votes?
Perhaps it would be better if we kept the real-world politics out of this comment section, guys.
There is just no way that kind of discussion would end well.
@ tofei:
Or if you cheat and still lose. A favorite saying of mine is — “Cheat and win that’s bad, but cheat and STILL lose. That’s just freaking embarrassing.”
In the last frame Zoey’s speech bubble should say/shout “YOU’RE FAKE NEWS!!!”.
