We’re talking thousands of votes here. IIRC, Bush/Gore was something like a 400 vote difference.

Looks to me like the Democrat Party’s goal is to permanently destroy the public’s faith in elections.

And it is succeeding.

You might want to look at the gains in Arizona and Georgia. 38000 votes is child’s play for these dems.

A stolen election is not a win.

Nelson’s camp is arguing that the state law requiring a signature on a mail-in ballot to match the one on record is “unconstitutional.”

If I was a Judge and some pinhead LAwyer made this argument, I would find him in Contempt, Remand for 30 days, $10,000 Fine and send a referral to the BAR Association for Permanent Disbarment,.

Let that keep you warm tonight when the repubs lose the senate. All it takes is for the dems to find more votes in another state or two. Or maybe a senator or two decide to change side to the dems. mitt, gardner, collins could easily flip.

Well that too. But in reality their goal is to create confusion, chaos and make it appear as a simple case of incompetence, all the while claiming that the votes are still legitimate (although what they have done is create a needle in a haystack) and to not allow them is voter suppression.

Don’t forget Murkowski. Remember Dianne had her up against the wall.

If I recall correctly, it’s the legislature that determines voting procedures and laws. Judges have zero legal standing to determine how votes are counted. Judges can have an opinion, but that’s all it is - an opinion. If the legislature agrees with that opinion, it can pass a law to reflect that opinion. Otherwise, the black-robes can butt out and shutup.

Follow the laws as passed by the legislature. Thus ends this election fiasco.

Yes it is. This is playing with nitroglycerin. When do the people withdraw the consent of the governed?

Oh but yes, it is!

This senior citizen veteran is not happy with the way things are going.

Sorry, not a good day...

That would be a good thing if it results in an effective remedy, especially before 11/2020.

Is it to be the job of our leaders, or the people?
It’s not a good feeling I’m having.
Nobody feels good about war.

With a whimper I fear. No bang.

The American people will lose heart, and surrender to Uniparty rule.

Not long after, the Uniparty will surrender to the global technocrats.

The Left is furious because Trump refuses to accept the peace that comes through surrender.
