because after 2008 we chalked it up to white guilt/black pride. in 2012 people voted for him knowing he was a disaster on just about every score.
I think two serious issues were at play in this election, besides the fraud and I do think it was there. First, you have the gimme mine culture of losers who are allowed to vote. I am dangerously close to thinking if you don’t pay taxes, you shouldn’t be allowed to pick those who spend that money. And second, I think pride was a big factor. People who were wrong about ozero do not want to admit it and would rather bitterly cling to their opinion before admitting they were horribly wrong. And yes, I said it.
