RUSH: So Stacey Abrams in Georgia has conceded, but well, she hasnt. Shes ripping Kemp, shes gonna run again, refusing to really accept the results of the election in formally conceding, just bitter and angry and calling for a boycott.
Hollywood actors are calling for a boycott of the state of Georgia. Georgia has become a major Hollywood production place because theyve been given tax breaks. And Hollywood actors are claiming theyre gonna start a boycott of Georgia because Stacey Abrams lost an election. This is where were headed. Its not where were headed; its where we are. They refuse to accept the results of an election. This means the people of the state of Georgia are blanket racists.
Kirsten Powers was on CNN over the weekend, former Fox infobabe, now went over across the lines to CNN, claiming that every white woman, period, not voting for Democrats is, by definition, racist. The whole state of Florida is now racist because Stacey Abrams wasnt elected governor.
Andrew Gillum unconceded and then reconceded. He lost! He lost on Election Day. He lost before Election Day. He lost in a gooped-up attempt to recount. This is an absolute embarrassment what happened in Palm Beach County and in Broward County in south Florida. Its no doubt what was being attempted there. And they were unable to steal either of these two elections, the Rick Scott for Senate victory and DeSantis for governor. So Gillum has conceded, then he unconceded, now hes reconceded.
Nelson Smiley Face Staples has conceded as well. And Snipes, Brenda Snipes has resigned. If the Democrats are smart theyll hire her for overall postelection recount. Theyll make up a whole new division in the Democrat Party, postelection recount division, and she can head it up. None of it was necessary. None of any of that that happened. What do you mean, Rush? The elections were close, and by law, they had to have recounts. Yeah. Yeah. But all of its so unnecessary. The recounts wouldnt have happened if thered been some concessions.
Its important to note, folks, look Ive been talking about this for a while now, and I dont want to overdo it here, but there is very, very bad connotations and future to a political party that will not concede election losses. That sets the table for really acrimonious, unsettling, potentially violent times down the road, you know, losers acknowledging theyve lost and then taking steps to fix what went wrong has been one of the foundational building blocks of the country.
Adherence to the Constitution, a mere piece of paper, and yet its been adhered to with respect and reverence for all of the years of our founding. Some exceptions out there of course, but it wouldnt have taken much for a single human being, a president, to come along and literally go on TV and tear it up and say its no longer applicable and start forging whatever kind of country and government he wanted. We hang by that thin a thread, the reference to the Constitution.
BREAK TRANSCRIPT
RUSH: Yeah. Eric Holder says about Georgia, Democracy lost in Georgia. This is dangerous, dangerous stuff. You had Sherrod Brown last week said, If this Kemp guy wins, then they stole it. They stole election, he was saying. The same thing is happening in Florida. These guys practically ran the table. You know theres not a single Republican member of Congress from Orange County, California? Theyve lost everything. The Republicans are as tiny a factor in California as they have ever been. I mean, not a single seat out of Orange County.
The margins here in Florida were very close, but they were no different after the recount than on election night, despite the efforts. There was even somebody in Florida, I think it was Broward County Ill have the details coming up during the recount, the ballot counting was going too fast. The machines were going too fast. So somebody stuck a paper clip in the power button to try to short-circuit it and slow it down. (laughing) To slow it down! I mean, the most incredible things were happening.
BREAK TRANSCRIPT
RUSH: ElRushbo@eibnet.us and the Limbaugh Institute where there are no graduates and there are no degrees because the learning never stops. We still have to make a decision. The governor of Florida the governor-elect, Ron DeSantis has specifically requested a diploma from the Limbaugh Institute.
We interviewed him here which was, of course, instrumental in his victory. We interviewed him and he requested a diploma that he could hang on his official governors wall in Tallahassee, and Ive never had a request for one. Hes not talking honorary. He wants the real deal. So were contemplating that, since Andrew Gillum has re-conceded. After conceding and then unconceding, hes re-conceded, and hes admitted that he lost. In fact, lets listen to some of this. Heres Stacey Abrams. This is an angry woman.
I think this is an angry woman during the campaign. This is an angry woman before the election. I think the lefts natural state of mind is angry, outraged. Its certainly not true that theyre happy. The left is not made up of happy people or even content people. The lefts main preoccupation each day is outrage and anger, and they use it to bully and to intimate and when that doesnt work, do they steam! Oh, do they get mad! So Stacey Abrams thinks that she was illegitimately defeated for governor of Georgia and shes not gonna accept the outcome.
Shes not gonna concede ever because she didnt lose. The system cheated her. This is not healthy, and its not good. As I mentioned earlier, a bunch of Hollywood actors are now suggesting a boycott of Georgia. Georgia has become You know the Netflix series Ozark? Filmed in Georgia. Its filmed in Georgia. Its about Lake of the Ozarks in Missouri, but its filmed in Georgia. Some big body of water, some lake outside Atlanta somewhere. Im not sure what it is. I dont remember.
Because theyve given Hollywood tax breaks just like New York gave Amazon tax breaks, just like Canada gives Hollywood tax breaks. So if theres a boycott of Georgia, if it ever amounts to anything, you people in Georgia ought to support it. Youre getting hosed! Youre being forced to pay whatever tax rate youre paying while these Hollywood types are given all kinds of tax breaks to come in and produce whatever it is theyre producing! Anyway, here is Stacey Abrams, defiant in Atlanta. This is on Friday at a press conference to deliver her non-concession speech
ABRAMS: You see, Im supposed to say nice things and accept my fate. They will complain that I should not use this moment to recap what was done wrong or to demand a remedy. You see, as a leader I should be stoic in my outrage and silent in my rebuke. But stoicism is a luxury and silence is a weapon for those who would quiet the voices of the people and I will not concede because the erosion of our democracy is not right.
RUSH: Exactly right, and the proof of the erosion of our democracy is that she lost. Why, she even had Oprah! The Oprah went in there, and she still lost! Which proves that Georgia is what? A racist state and undemocratic to boot. If you lose as a large African-American woman and youre being endorsed by another large African-American woman, then there has to be some sexism and racism going on.
And, by God, were not gonna concede to this flouting of democracy. Here is more of Stacey Abrams. She was on State of the Union Sunday morning on CNN. Jake Tapper was talking to her. And he said to her, Sherrod Brown, the Senator in Ohio, says the election was stolen. Do you agree that your election was stolen, and do you think that Brian Kemp is not the legitimate governor-elect of Georgia?
ABRAMS: The law as it stands says that he received an adequate number of votes to become the governor of Georgia.
TAPPER: Is he the legitimate governor-elect of Georgia?
ABRAMS: He is the person who won an adequate number of votes
TAPPER: But thats not
ABRAMS: to become the governor.
TAPPER: Youre not answering the question.
ABRAMS: I am an (sputters)
TAPPER: Do you think it was
ABRAMS: No, I
TAPPER: Youre not using the word legitimate. Is he the legitimate governor-elect of Georgia?
ABRAMS: He is the legal governor of Georgia.
Stacey Abrams: 'Democracy failed' in Georgia governor race>
RUSH: Okay. So what is this? He received an adequate number of votes to become the governor of Georgia. Tapper: But is he legitimate? He is the person that won an adequate number of votes. But thats not Jake, what does it matter when she thinks it is legitimate or not? What the hell does it matter? Okay, so the loser says the winners not legitimate but hes legal? What does it matter what she thinks?
Why is what she thinks the news? Why is what the left thinks of everything the news? Why is the impact good or bad on the Democrats always the focal point of the narrative? Why? Why is it that when the Democrats lose, theres something weird or odd about it, and when the Republicans win theres something fishy about it? Why is this? Inquiring minds want to know. Heres Staple Face, smiley Bill Nelson on his campaign website posting a video conceding the race to Rick Scott. This is the senator race
NELSON: Things worked out a little differently than Grace and I had hoped. But let me say I by no measure feel defeated. And thats because Ive had the privilege of serving the people of Florida and our country for most of my life. I was not victorious in this race, but I still wish to strongly reaffirm the cause for which we fought.
RUSH: Well, okay, its a little better. Hes acknowledging that he didnt win, and hes not categorizing it as illegitimate. Its still not right, but they gave it their best shot. They gave the recount their best shot, they put their best people on it: Brenda Snipes, Susan Bucher. They put their best experts they had on it, and they couldnt flip it, so it must be legitimate. Here is Andrew Gillum. This is Saturday in Tallahassee.
GILLUM: We said that we will fight until the last vote, uh, is counted. We wanted to make sure that every single vote including those that were overvotes, undervotes. Uh, as long as it was a legally cast vote, we wanted those votes to be counted, and now that we are rounding that process out, R. Jai and I wanted to take a moment, uh, to congratulate Mr. DeSantis on becoming the next governor of the great state of Florida.
RUSH: Now, there you go. Theres a little grace there. Thats what used to always get praised. Thats what was always acknowledged as the way to go. No harm there. Gillum didnt hurt his chances. Maybe some of the radicals on the left think he was being too nice, but thats the way it used to go. Heres Rick Scott this morning on Fox & Friends and on the Fox News Channel. Steve Doocy said, Congratulations. Did you at any point think that they might find a bunch of ballots in a book room somewhere and that the other guy who has the job, i.e., Smiley Staple Face Nelson was gonna keep it?
SCOTT: It was very frustrated. When I announced wed won that Tuesday night, we were up 57,000 votes, and they just kept finding ballots. And so thats why, you know, Im thank full for a lot of people that brought light to this to make sure we stop this and were gonna do everything we can to make sure these elections are free and fair.
RUSH: And one more, Ron DeSantis, also on Fox & Friends this morning with Brian Kilmeade. Hes the new governor, governor-elect of Florida. Were there any doubts in the interim from Election Day to today that you would be, at this moment, governor-elect of Florida?
DESANTIS: No. I mean, look, the only thing better than being elected governor of Florida is being elected twice in two weeks.
KILMEADE: (chuckling)
DESANTIS: And so, you know, we had a margin on election night. It was a close race, but it was definitive that I had won. And even with some of the votes that turned up in Broward, I mean, my margin was significant enough. We knew the machine recount was not gonna change it and it didnt. And I also had confidence that Governor Scott would end up winning the recount, both the manual and machine recount there. So I think thats great that it happened and that were moving on now.
Yes, I fear that you are right!
All reason, logic and common sense having fled the body politic, we are in for some rough times!
I pray that We the People are able to come to our senses before CW II is touched off by these LIEberal morons!
HST, the issue does need to be settled!
Stealing California update. I spoke too soon calling the final House tally
Rep. David Valadao is personally popular and despite sitting in district that went for Shillery by 15.5% (one of the worst for any GOP district) he was ahead by enough on election night to be called the winner (and while rats had hope he was never considered at highest risk). I noticed it got pretty narrow as they kept “counting ballots” but thought it was over. Well they are somehow STILL “counting” and now he’s only up 1K with more to count and the rat is on pace to make it a photo finish when all the “ballots” are counted.
Every Cali race has shifted like 5 points more D since Wednesday morning 2 weeks ago. Just like how Shillery’s “popular vote” “lead” kept growing and growing until it was big enough to whine about.
Coming soon to a “blue state” near you, voting via phone app. Just wait. Hey, at least that way we won’t have to wait 2 weeks+ before we get screwed, all the pounding will be over with by election night cause counting the “votes” will be super easy and quick! With “early voting” it might even be all over weeks before the calendar even hits November!
Final results (I hope)
We lost House district 45 (apparently, Winger), 48 (Breen), 51 (Walsh), 53 (Corrigan), 61 (Jesiel), 81 (Olsen), AND
76 (Long) This is Trump district far from Chicago, Long supposedly patted some female staffer on the back so thats rape so the GOP cut him lose AND GAVE AWAY A SAFE SEAT GOD (Darn) SON OF A (loose woman) and
We gained 118 (Beat Natalie Phelps Finnie, daughter of former Congressman David Phelps)
-6 Net.
And 3 lost in the Senate
21 (Connelly), 24 (Nybo) and 27 (Rooney)
DuPage has its first county-wide elected rat since the 30s, they won County Clerk. I think we still have the board, for now.
DuPage GOP Website has a big picture of a bald eagle and a Reagan quote. Thats the Go to look for every random, underfunded Gop Congressional candidate who uses free software for his website.
Didnt know Lake Sheriff Curran lost, he won on election night. Rats also took the Lake County board, first time EVER. It was bound happen sooner or later, in this case much later than election day, funny how that happens. RIP Lake and DuPage Counties 😠
Republicans need to INDIVIDUALLY challenge the seating of every single solitary Democrat who “won” by less than 10%.
Virtually every Dem who hails from CA who “took” a Republican seat should frankly be disqualified to the last, an election re-run with Justice Dept. monitors. Something is very, very wrong here.
Demonrats do not make up 80%+ of the electorate in California, so why in a 53-seat delegation are they allowed to just thieve 45 or now 46 seats (and will it be 47 or 48 by next week) ? Republicans would never be permitted to have that kind of out-of-whack proportion of members in a state with that many members. Not in Florida, not in Texas.
This isn’t a matter of “the right messaging”, this is a whole smorgasbord of fraud, deceit and chicanery. Vote-counting that continues until it gets the desired outcome, even in supposed “Republican” states and areas. This, at a time when the economy is booming (at least until the moment the Demons stole the election) ?
No, something is VERY wrong here and patriots should take to the streets over this open theft and state loud and clear that this will not stand. This is merely a prelude to the Derp State theft they intend to preside over in 2020 in stealing the Presidency with any Stalinist lunatic they put up. Theft of our elections by these lawless, Godless creatures ought to be the Fort Sumter moment for our side.

Pay attention cause this is critical. Mail-in votes can come in thru 11/20/2018 - today - 14 days after election day. R We Nuts ?
The race is now uncalled. The RAT is up 116 votes and there are still more mail-ins to count.
There are also 1800 provisional ballots to be reviewed.
We could get out 100% of eligible repub voters and still lose.
As long as mail-ins get counted last, the RATs will win cause they are better at manufacturing enough votes to win.
We need to get better at mail-in and cheating.
Cantore & Dupage are toast.
p.s. Dupage County Board Election Commission disbands 12/31/2018.
Guess who will have election responsibilities in DuPage ?
County Clerk...
last one out, turn off the lights ////////////////

I’m half expecting lost ballots from 1988 to show up. “Turns out Dukakis won!!!!”
The votes (most of them at least) weren’t “missed” these are mail in, absentee, and provisional ballots that for some reason need weeks and weeks to finish counting. Ridiculous. Can’t they at least screw us in a timely manner?
what was critical about this was Impy noted that DuPage elected its first county-wide RAT in 30 years - elected as County Clerk, who will now control elections in DuPage starting 01/2019.
Now, now, it’s all coincidence...
"Early voting" really bit us in the @$$ this election. And "Early voting" (which is NOT the same as absentee voting, you need a legitimate reason you can't be there on election day to Absentee vote) is a relatively new thing, as I recall it didn't exist prior to 2006 or so. In Illinois, most of the "early voting" sites are city halls run by city employees. Joy.
It seems we DID have a "blue wave" in 2018... two weeks AFTER the election!
>> Im half expecting lost ballots from 1988 to show up. Turns out Dukakis won!!!! <<
Nah, that one wasn't close enough to steal. But at this rate, the RATS could probably retroactively elect Harvey Gantt to the U.S. Senate over Jesse Helms...I'm sure there are truckloads of ballots waiting to be counted that they "missed" in 1990!
Agreed wholeheartedly.
Oh no not the first county wide rat in 30 years, the first since the 1930’s!!!!!!! In 1934 they won Clerk and Treasurer. Nothing since! 84 years.
And JaBba was the first democrat to carry the DuPage for Governor since 1932! First to carry Kane and Kendall county EVER, or least since some time in the 19th Century.
Bammy was the first rat to carry DuPage for President at since uh 1852 I think. Now it shows no signs we’ll even have a shot at carrying it for President.
Gak.
Dukakis still wouldn’t have been elected president of course. But Illinois itself was pretty close, 2% race, only 95K votes, JaBba’s butt crack could hold twice as many ballots.
My biggest concern is the one place the RATs were NOT able to steal this election, Florida, will likely be ripe for RAT shenanigans in 2020 thanks to the brand new felony voter law. The RATs are probably drooling at the thought of all the extra gangbanger votes they can "find" to ensure the state votes the "correct" way in 2020 for whatever commie candidate they want. I hope the useful idiots on our side who support felony voting rights are happy.
I’m pretty sure these aren’t the “early votes” (cast in person) taking so long to be counted and coming in heavily rat. It’s absentees but especially the damn provisional ballots, you know the ones they don’t count till they verify you are actually registered (because you aren’t!).
Cali allows mail-ins beyond just absentees and it’s since 2016 it’s just absurd.
I do frown on early voting however, I think it hurts us (I early voted myself though, may as well take advantage, remember they add votes, they can’t subtract votes) and makes fraud easier. And let’s face it, lazy scum vote democrat so anything that makes it easier to vote is gonna be bad, even if they are legal voters.
True, with the extra ballots they "find" these days, they could probably easily add enough votes to give Illinois' 1988 electoral votes to Dukakis.
Of course, at the time, I believe George H.W. Bush won DuPage in a landslide. It's one of the counties that put him over the top statewide.
And let guess, they have automatic motor voter registration too, so if some guy from Haiti gets a driver's license in California, he's now a "registered California voter" with no questions asked.
I'm surprised the Republicans are conceding so easily. There's no way you'd convince me to concede if I had been winning every vote count consistently since election day and then weeks later they stopped counting and IMMEDIATELY declared the RAT the "winner" the instant he/she pulled ahead in the vote totals. Mark Curran only "lost" today by 137 votes, out of more than a quarter million cast. Thanks motor voter law!
People used to bash Norm Coleman on here for conceding too easily. Ironically, he did the opposite, he refused to concede until the RAT controlled Minnesota Supreme Court awarded it to Franken. I think he managed to keep Franken out of the Senate for 5 months or so.
Who should run for office in 2020? I hope that, in the 6th Congressional Dist., State Senators Connelly or Rooney or State Rep. Ives will run. In the 8th Congressional Dist., I hope State Sen. Nybo or State Rep. Morrison will run. In the 10th Congressional Dist., I hope former Lake Co. clerk Helander or Sheriff Curran will run. In the 14th Congressional Dist., I hope State Rep. David McSweeney, State Rep. Barbara Wheeler, or State Rep. Keith Wheeler will run. In the 31st State Senate District, I hope State Rep. Jesiel will run.
I can’t believe my grandparents voted Democratic this year in Ft. Lauderdale.
They NEVER would have done that when they were alive!
Why bother ? The races will only be stolen.
Yet every day I talk to someone different who says indeed it was bad messaging-—and they give me examples.
Today it was a dental hygienist who as best I could determine voted for Ducey but not McSally. She asked for my opinion but I turned it around. She essentially said messaging. Then I gave her my “drills/holes” example.
“You should have been McSally’s campaign manager,” she said.
