Do Not Buy Bad Arguments about Election Fraud. Most of the theories of election misconduct, even if proven, would not change the vote totals enough to overturn the outcome.

There’s a lot going around right now among disappointed Republicans about fraudulent or illegal behavior by Democrats in the 2020 election. Donald Trump and his most vocal supporters claim that the election was stolen. There is a disconnect here: Most of the theories of election misconduct, even if proven, would not change the vote totals enough to overturn the outcome. That does not mean that Republicans and conservatives should roll over and do nothing, but we should temper our expectations and not go chasing rumors and conspiracy theories without evidence. The goal should be to unearth genuine misconduct, expose it to the sunlight, and prevent its repetition.

Seven states were decided by less than three percentage points. Biden leads the counted votes in six of them (the other being North Carolina). Trump would need to flip 37 electoral votes in order to force an Electoral College tie, or 38 in order to be declared the winner. That means three states — four if Nevada is one and Pennsylvania isn’t. There is no precedent for anything like this, requiring a shift of over 47,000 votes to change the outcomes in Arizona, Georgia, and Wisconsin and send the election to the House, or over 74,000 to flip Arizona, Georgia, and Pennsylvania. The margin in Michigan alone is a daunting 146,137 votes, a far cry from the 537-vote margin in Florida in 2000.

Election Fraud is like cockroaches.

When you see one, you know it isn’t just one. Same with Democrats and election fraud.

NR used to be a good publication. Not any longer.

My mom died two years ago in SoCal. I did call the local registrar to have her name stricken from the voters’ list. I do wonder if she voted for Biden.

I left CA a half century ago. I wonder if I voted for him too.

No, not buying and and I am not giving up and accep5ting the results of the elections on your say so.

The media is just trying to discourage us so that we give up the fight, thinking there’s no way to win.

In Atlanta, Milwaukee, Pittsburgh, Detroit, Philly, etc, all conspired to exclude lawful poll observers against their will. That was an illegal act. All ballots in the counting rooms, all ballots that arrived in the counting room during these periods, are de facto illegal ballots at that point.

And those who denied them entrance, need to be charged and jailed for their committing a crime.
