Across America, stores in urban areas are being boarded up in anticipation of rioting following tomorrow’s election. It isn’t disappointed Trump voters store owners are worried about. They are taking precautions because they think President Trump may win.
Democratic leaders, meanwhile, are increasingly nervous. Turnout in heavily Democratic areas of several states has been unexpectedly light. No one is enthusiastic about Joe Biden, while Trump is drawing unprecedented crowds and generating lots of excitement. It seems that in response, the Democrats are formulating a strategy to excuse their defeat and to try to seize power. This morning, Trump’s deputy campaign manager Justin Clark sent out this “Trump campaign statement on Democrat plans to delegitimize Election Day results.”
Democrats are panicking because Joe Biden has not run up a large enough lead in early votes in battleground states and they know that President Trump’s in-person votes on Election Day will make up the difference and propel him to victory. Biden’s political operatives have already been distributing talking points and research to delegitimize Election Day results by coaching surrogates to refer to the President’s Election Day success as a ‘Red Mirage.’
The operatives are advising surrogates and media to create a smoke screen by casting blame all around – imagining postal delays or falsely claiming that mail-in ballots that have simply not been returned should be considered legitimate votes that need to be counted. None of this will be true, but it will be held up as proof that President Trump’s victory is a so-called ‘Red Mirage.’ No one should fall for it.

Well in PA it will be a while before the total count is in.... some counties won’t even start counting mail in ballots until Wednesday because they don’t have the staff to, but there are the smaller redder counties. So the idea that it’s going to be some major shift out of the mail in ballots is wishful thinking IMHO.
Well, thanks to their Covid scare, two tried-and-true tactics of herding college students to the polls and hauling busloads of voters from precinct to precinct are not so easy.
They were counting on RBG to stay alive until after the election...
When African Americans riot, it is usually their on hoods they destroy...
...Dems have been no different this summer
I believe he has been holding off, insurrection act, until after the election. Enact it the minute the polls close would be my advice.
They are boarding up because they know Trump is going to win and leftists all across the country are going to riot.
Anybody remember this Trump tweet?
“Delay the Election until people can properly, securely and safely vote???”
And the responses to it?
“Never in American history — not even during the Civil War and World War II — has there been a successful move to ‘Delay the Election’ for President,” said presidential historian Michael Beschloss on Twitter.
What does the Constitution say about the timing of elections?
Article II of the Constitution authorizes Congress to determine the date of the general election for federal office, only mandating that the “Day shall be the same throughout the United States.”
“Delay of the November election would violate both federal law and the Constitution,” said Trevor Potter, president of the non-partisan Campaign Legal Center, and a former Republican chairman of the Federal Election Commission“

Once again, Trump set the stage...
I would think a 3 day delay, or a week delay would be unconstitutional by these democrats’ standards.

Sorry but bullspit.
Large counties will start counting mail in ballots in PA At 7 am.. they will be reporting most of their numbers election night. It is the smaller lower staffed counties (Trump Country) that won’t even start counting the mail in ballots until Tuesday.
It is highly highly highly unlikely that it Trump is leading late in the night Tuesday that he will be losing as more mail in votes get counted
