If this isn’t fake news, then get ready, folks.

After a candidate has been declared the winner, the counting continues and the lead might shrink...or expand.

Recognize that absentee ballots aren't counted and conditional ballots aren't examined until after the election day votes are compiled. But, when one candidate's margin over the other exceeds the number of ballots remaining, the state can safely declare a winner.

Thus, the fact that Clinton has gained on Trump since he was declared the winner is not evidence of the Democrats "finding" more votes. Instead, they are votes that have already been cast...and will not be sufficient to overturn the announced result.

Not necessarily. If these criminals (and they are sometimes convicts on parole; it’s true) can continue to ‘delete’ votes from Trump’s total, the the ‘margin’ you referred to can shrink to a point where the absentees will be counted on a recount.

Now about absentees, the democrats are expert at manufacturing these. I saw it happen two times in Washington State in the 2000s; one for a governorship and one for a US Senate seat.

It’s happening. Stein would not be doing this unless it was clear they had a plan to throw this election.

Mark my words, there will be a court filing, staying the certification by Congress, and delaying the inauguration. This is how they operate and they don’t care what anyone but they and their supporters think. It does not matter to them that what they are doing is illegal because they are liars and all their supporters need is a good lie to spread amongst themselves.

Trump’s lawyers need to hit the ground running right now.

That's the way it should be, but if the 'Rats are in control of the election apparatus, I don't know, anything can happen. There were an awful lot of "found" votes that put Franken and Fraudoire in office.

There was also the one House seat in Indiana back in '84 that was won by the 'Pub candidate (McIntyre) and was signed, sealed, certified, and delivered. But the 'Rat-controlled House refused to seat him and did their own series of "recounts", manipulating the already-cast ballots until they got the result they wanted (i.e., the 'Rat "wins"). There was a re-match in '86 but as is often the case, it was no contest, the 'Rat won in a blow-out. It took until '94 to dig out the 'Rat, who didn't survive the Gingrich-engineered 'Rub landslide in Clinton's first midterm election.
