Democrats have a plan if Trump prematurely declares election victory
Reuters ^ | 11/2/24 | Jarrett Renshaw and Gram Slattery

Posted on 11/03/2024 10:52:18 AM PST by DallasBiff

Democrats are readying a rapid-fire response to flood social media and the airwaves with calls for calm and patience with vote-counting should Donald Trump try to prematurely claim election victory, as he did in 2020, Harris campaign and party officials told Reuters.

The Republican candidate told reporters this week that he hoped to be able to declare victory on Election Day, although election experts have cautioned that it could take several days for the final result to be known, especially if there are demands for vote recounts in some key areas. Trump is locked in a razor-thin race with Democratic rival Kamala Harris.

“So if Trump claimed victory as they fear, that has no effect on the legal status of the election returns.

So what the heck are they so upset about?”

**************

Liberals are in a perpetual state of anger, resentment and fear. They are emotion driven and you simply cannot reason with them.

Yes, yes. The Democrats need several weeks to manufacture enough votes.

The Trump total went down by 19958 and the Biden total went up by 19958. Just an observation.

What do they consider premature? Jan. 1, 2025?

The main issue is credibility. The MSM, the Democrats, and their cohorts have lost all credibility.

The Kamala campaign has been stupidly childish and full of lies. Screeching and wailing too.

Three issues:

1. Laws were bent or broken and civil liberties compromised. There is clearly cheating and if you are less generous like me, security compromises that only benefit the Democrat party.
2. You have a party of hacks who will do #1 above to win at all costs. They would sell their souls to keep Trump out.
3. You have a MSM who will ignore and even participate in the cheating.

The Democrats have sold their souls and we have watched and noted. They don't realize that we have reached the point of no return. How can we rationally trust the system and our fellow Americans any more?

And if Kamala wins, we are supposed to forget it all and the Democrat party will return to peace and love and make love not war? But remember — they were willing to do it. They were willing to sell their souls to win.

Na, its rigged. But I did vote for what it is worth.

If evil prevails, and Trump is not declared the winner, then on November the 6th the Patriots will, again, meet at the Green Dragon Tavern to discuss the future of America.

As long as it takes. In 2020 they just kept receiving and counting ballots until Biden hit the magic number. Then they called it.

They do know that. They want to win in the ‘court of public opinion’. They think winning in the court of public opinion will take them closer to victory.

They want to soften everyone up to accept endless recounts and lawsuits should Trump appear to have won.

Trump shouldn’t declare early. It takes time to print up all the additional votes needed to overcome the rump majorities in the swing states.

They will stoop the count a 2200 hors so they can get that late arriving truckload of votes they ordered from Amazon.

Yes I do recall that. Was watching 3 days of the condor recently, someone was handling a credit card transaction and the merchant was given the code to OK the charge.

Good to be old I guess.

My local vote district had the final tally after every election by one hour after the polls closed. That was with the pull the curtain shut and pull the levers you were voting for. The district called into the state tally office and the state tally was complete by no later than 11. There was no two month open voting season, one day and absentee votes.

Less likely to happen this time.

It'll be too obvious.

But I think the networks will take their time. They're not going to do Trump any favors by announcing on Tuesday. Even if it's a decisive victory in the EC.

I remember Dan Rather calling FLA for Kerry with 2% of the precincts reporting.

2%

There will be dozens of vans in dozens of states fully loaded with millions of pre-voted ballots ready to be rushed in and counted, at 3 A.M. every day for 3-4 days after the election...

The communists do not roll over and follow the rules...

OTOH, the GOP demonstrated, in 202o, that it WILL roll over and play dead...
