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.

National Review.
Quisling.
Nonsense. Millions of votes are affected.
Some people I know were talking sort of along this line.
Here is my question: What is the acceptable amount of voter fraud? When is it too much?
I think WE know the answer to that, but it is probably unrealistic to expect the leftists to ever understand this idea.
Neocons can hardly wait for the next war.
Most would not change the vote enough, but some certainly did change the vote enough.
NR, working overtime to destroy our country.
Bullshit. Who are they to say what is an acceptable amount of “fraud”.
And I still believe we haven’t scratched the surface.
Shills and Dem operatives, MSM types have been diluting the numerous provable accounts of fraud with implausible accounts for the purpose of dismissing ALL accounts as “conspiracy”.
How hard is it for some people to recall that Joe Biden couldn’t get 10 people to attend an organized event, and Trump’s supporters spontaneously formed their own car rallies, boat rallies, in addition to arriving at organized Trump rallies in the tens of thousands.
Tens of thousands > Ten
Hair sniffing, child pawing father of Hunter Biden, a child rapist holding China’s payoff for Joe “The Big Guy” just WAS NOT THAT POPULAR on election night! Who woulda guessed that? NOT TownHall.
TownHall knows that Trump, Pompeo and attorney Sidney Powell are saying there is demonstrable evidence - they just hope it’s not true.
How many times do I have to be reminded about why I stopped my subscription (after a number of years) to NR.
The stolen votes are in the millions. When all the truth comes out Trump wins in a landslide.
Bravo Sierra. The author of this tripe is a maroon.
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.
In Philly that is estimated to be 300k invalid ballots and 325k invalid ballots. The numbers in the other cities that did this will be similarly large.
Those ballots are in essence, fruits of the poison tree.
Of course, if the courts rule that the election was overwhelmed with fraud and misconduct they could throw out the election. A lot of the discovered fraud cannot be fully quantified and the real answer could not be determined.
The headline is an outright lie, so why read the rest of this lickspittle decveit?
This fool honestly believes the President and his legal team actually have to prove hundreds of thousands of individual cases of voter fraud? How stupid. If the President and his team can prove there are systemic issues and violations of the Constitution, that oughta be enough.
“There is no precedent for anything like this”
You mean compared to past precedents of vote by mail ballots we are witnessing??
I’m not sure if it’s necessary to determine the number of fraudulent votes to vacate the results. If there is conclusive evidence of systemic fraud, it probably cannot be determined the precise number of fraudulent votes. But it would be clear that the contest is tainted. The Constitution calls for the state legislatures to determine the presidential electors, and if the votes are shown to be compromised, they should select the electors for their state.
NR has been a liberal joke for years.
As Bill Buckley spins unhappily in his grave.
