Dick Morris: Trump Can Still Win
Newsmax ^ | 08 November 2020 | Dick Morris

President Donald Trump can still win the presidency.

Here’s how:

Only the Electoral College or the various state legislatures can declare a candidate the winner. To base this decision on network vote totals and projections and to call Biden the president-elect is irresponsible.

The recounts in Arizona, Georgia, and the other states are likely to go heavily for Trump.

Most of the likely errors or invalid votes took place on mailed in ballots. (Machine votes are harder to tamper with). Since Biden won upwards of two-thirds of mail-in votes and absentee ballots, it's likely that most of the discarded mail ballots will be subtracted from Biden’s total.

...

Article II Section 1 of the US Constitution reads:

"Each State shall appoint, in such Manner as the Legislature thereof may direct, a Number of Electors, equal to the whole Number of Senators and Representatives to which the State may be entitled in the Congress."

The Pennsylvania State Legislature, solidly in Republican hands (both houses) may choose to demand a recount before appointing electors. To build the case for doing so, it may hold hearings into the allegations of fraud so as to help the voters of the state understand how flagrantly their votes were mishandled.

Already, the leader of the State Senate in Pennsylvania and the Speaker of the State Assembly have held a press conference announcing their intention to "audit" the vote counting process.

So, as the great Yogi Berra said, "It ain't over 'til the fat lady sings."

She hasn’t.

IMO, Trump HAS ALREADY won. The bad guys just don’t know it yet.

“The recounts in Arizona, Georgia, and the other states are likely to go heavily for Trump.”

Please tell me this is consensus, and not just the opinion of a guy who has a terrible track record with political predictions.

This is true on once condition, the ‘illegally’ cast ballots are separated out, otherwise a recount is just re-arranging deck chairs on the Titanic.

State representatives need to be politely but firmly told that they have to uphold their Constitutional obligations. They need to be made aware if this is allowed to happen, then they will he next and every election going forward will be massively rigged.

There was that Dem Senate candidate in 2016 who requested a recount (forgot her name).

When the recount began, many more Trump votes were found. The Dem party asked her to stop the recount effort.

Not sure how often recounts actually change an election result. I think only very rarely.

I may be wrong as I am getting older and the memory fades, but I am not sure that Yogi said that. I do think he said “ it’s not over till it’s over”. But I’m not sure.

Seriously. I had hope until Morris agreed with
Me. Now I’m going to stick my head in my over. It’s electric so I think this is going to be pretty tough

Needs to be a hand recount with observers, just feeding the ballots through those same machines wont change anything.

Either SCOTUS or the State legislatures have to do their job if there is to be any chance for this coup to be stopped.

Shut up, Dick. You’ve always been wrong about everything, so I always begin second-guessing myself when you say something I want to hear. I’ve done very well betting against you over the years because your pronouncements are almost invariably wrong.

LoL

I do hate this article because Morris is almost always wrong. Let’s hope the broken clock theory is correct now.
