We must all remember that the popular vote was full of RAT voter fraud including the felons who were allowed to vote by RAT governors. Note, no one is talking about that issue!!! How many million votes did the Witch get via voter fraud??

We are very fortunate that the state of Michigan has a Pubbie state administration (even though the gov is a RINOish type) and a Pubbie state SOS. Had it been the other way around and the 'Rats were in control at the state level, it's possible that they could have pulled off enough cheating to turn the state for HRC.

True enough. Remember the Soros-funded “Secretary of State Project”, which had the avowed goal of putting ‘Rats in charge of the election apparatus in all 50 states. That is how the clown Franken cheated his way into the Senate in MN the first time around. The ‘Rat-controlled election offices in WA state cheated Dino Rossi out of the governorship by 128 votes (!) a few cycles ago. In both cases, boxes and boxes of “lost” ballots” were miraculously “found”, almost all of them cast for the ‘Rat candidate (well golleeeee, imagine that, what an amazing coinky-dink), enough to give the a “win” (and a mandate, of course).

I have a strong feeling that President Trump will have the vote fraud cleaned up once he gets into office. He's got it on the back burner right now because he's not in office yet but you can bet he'll be all over it once he gets the power to do something about it.

Here are several things a President Trump can either do himself or pressure states to do:

There should be a “cut-off point”, so that these mass quantities of fake ballots are useless when “discovered”.

How Minnesota continues to let Sen. Frankenfurter remain in the senior legislative body is beyond me. Speaking of the body, wonder how Jesse Ventura is doing these days.

If they’re known fake, they shouldn’t be counted in the first place.

It’s simple. Say 1000 people live in a given area. If 1000 people are registered to vote, and there are 1300 ballots coming in, there’s clearly a problem.

When the AP gives it to Trump from on high, it will be acknowledged. Have they?

Balancing regional concerns of less populated areas is only one reason the Electoral College is better.

The best reason is protection from vote fraud. Consider what could happen under the following three approaches:

A) System as is now, states run elections and we use representative Electoral College.
B) States run elections as now, but we use the "popular vote"
C) Federal government runs a popular vote election.

Now if we go with option C and some partisan group in power is able to rig the election process to keep themselves in power, then we are lost.

If we go with system B its even worse. We are almost guaranteed the process will be corrupted in a competitive way by the most partisan state governments. For example say Texas gets sick of California padding their totals with dead people and illegal aliens and starts getting very "liberal" in how they count votes. California gets mad and gets even more "liberal" in how they count votes. In short order you have competitive vote padding and at some point or another it will be clear to all that the totals are no longer even plausible....perhaps Rhode Island will suddenly report 3 billion votes for some local hero of their own after the other state's inflated totals are officially reported...and then perhaps the states will compete to be the last to report their official totals....like a second before midnight on January 19th...

Best to stick with system A. yes California and New York can count dead people and illegal aliens, but the Democrats have to corrupt the less partisan swing state's election processes in order to win...and that is harder to do. No matter how "liberal" they are in counting votes, they only get so many EC votes.

If liberals keep yapping about wanting "one person one vote" though, we can always compromise with "one county one vote" ;-).

Can you imagine somebody wanting a recount in all 50 states and DC? Popular vote system would do that.

Should we just chuck all states rights and have no state laws at all? Whts the point of having states then?

Of course we should have no state laws. We shouldn't even have national laws.

We should only have laws that are approved by the legislative body and executive leadership of the UN.

Obviously.

Duh.

Report to Room 101 immediately, Citizen.

We are the world, we are the children
We are the ones who make a brighter day
So let's start giving
There's a choice we're making
We're saving our own lives
It's true we'll make a better day
Just you and me

If that’s the case, the Left won a long time ago.

The article says it won’t be certified until November 28th.
Still can’t understand why Michigan takes so long to certify their vote. Ridiculous!

It takes time to manufacture the necessary extra votes.

Well, that proves it.

Once you get to the point of R’s winning the big battles,,,

then filling out all those useless absentee (post death) ballots doesn’t make much sense...

LOL!!!!!!

I don’t understand how someone can be active enough within his/her political party to be chosen as an elector, then turn around and vote for the other party’s candidate.

Me neither. Let's ask the Bushes. Maybe they'd know.
