I believe there is a sockpuppet that is attempting to votestack in these RfCs: ([1][2]) they created. GBUDJT and the IPs were all new users, and their only edits to Wikipedia were made a few days ago in the RfCs. The users commented within minutes of each other, and use similar wording in their comments. [3][4][5][6][7][8][9] Prcc27 (talk) 03:59, 26 August 2024 (UTC)

I don't know why someone who always thinks the same is accused of being a sock puppet. You can't just accuse without any evidence. What if they always read Wikipedia and find my proposal? Why is someone who thinks the same is accused of being a sock puppet? Why did you do that to me? I'm shocked because I just proposed a photo about Trump and there are people who think the same but you accuse me of being a sock puppet. Teknologi Positif (talk) 04:47, 26 August 2024 (UTC)
- @Teknologi Positif: I notice you are a contributor for Indonesian Wikipedia. I did an internet search and the two IP addresses above are Indonesian in origin. Would you say this is a coincidence? It is quite unusual for 3+ users to (possibly) be from the same country (other than the U.S.) editing the U.S. presidential election talk page around the same time, supporting the same thing. And most of the accounts are a few days old and have not been used for anything else other than supporting your proposal. If you are not a sockpuppet, I sincerely apologize. But I hope you understand my concerns. Prcc27 (talk) 07:14, 26 August 2024 (UTC)
- I have no problem with anyone else. I appreciate your apology. It's just that I'm confused when I submit a proposal for a new Trump photo and there are people who have the same opinion as me, I am accused of using a sock puppet. Maybe I shouldn't submit a proposal for a new Trump photo anymore? I know you are a Democrat, but I ask that you have good intentions towards me. I am actually an Independent and not affiliated with any party. That's why I submitted a proposal for a new Trump photo with a smiling face to be on par with Harris's photo which is also smiling. But if you want to silence my opinion and accuse me, I am willing and sincere. Teknologi Positif (talk) 13:40, 26 August 2024 (UTC)
- You haven't really responded to the point made, nor denied the accusation. I cannot help but notice that you and the supposed socks all appear to be non-native English speakers employing similar cadence. GreatCaesarsGhost 15:41, 26 August 2024 (UTC)
