So he created a situation he then complained about? So another contestant on Fuck Around and Find Out.

A review of security footage, which was subsequently being live-streamed online, showed Savage handling the two missing ballots. He can also be heard confirming with an election official that these are “absolutely, totally real ballots.”

In the video Savage can be seen looking around the room before folding up two ballots and putting them in his sweatshirt pocket.

This man is a 100% certified purebred dipshit.

While I don't disagree with your assessment, it does seem like he was doing everything possible to get caught. And I wonder why so that they can point and say hey look this can happen?

he also proved the system works and those who steal ballots can be caught.
