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.

๐๐๐๐. Oh, okay!
Expect Harris to do the declaring
At least we won’t have to stay up late waiting for results when they all stop counting at 10 PM.
All my life we went to bed knowing who had won the election. Now with all the high tech it takes days and weeks.
That is FRAUD and nothing else.
Remember when you used a credit card and someone would telephone a number and verify the purchase and they would hand write a code down?
Today with technology it’s immediate and nobody has to do anything.
But with elections, it’s the opposite. The more high tech, the more fraud and the slower things happen.
Commie Harris said her 1st official act will to be lock up Trump never to see daylight again on ABC show today...
Does everyone know, then a candidate claiming victory, or a candidate conceding an election, has no legal effect or standing?
The votes still have to be counted and officially reported in each state , and have to be signed off on by the election officials of each state.
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?
I think NH goes red and then everyone spazzes out
Even Ruth Bader Ginsberg said elections should be done my midnight of election day.
They will probably stop the count in MI, PA and WI so they'll postpone the networks from declaring the eventual winner.
Queer how that doesn’t work isn’t it?
Any result other than a Trump landslide is BS and a result of fraud.
There are four time zones in the USA, meaning the West Coast time is three hours behind the East Coast time.
If victory is declared prematurely on the East Coast then allegedly that will suppress turnout in West Coast districts that are still voting.
They do know that. They want to win in the โcourt of public opinionโ. They think winning in the court of public opinion will take them closer to victory.
They are upset he will be right.
Are there really enough election center water lines that can be broken in the wee hours?
