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.
National Review ^ | November 11, 2020 | Dan McLaughlin

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.

Yes Trump won in a landslide and the Dems lost the house probably. If we can get to the bottom of deep state controlling the voting machines like they ‘ve been doing for years. We can transform this country.

“Most of the theories...” article

1 fraud is cumulative
2 the vote switching “glitch” by dominion alone is enough to change the outcome in any state
3 every instance of fraud should be prosecuted. Some should be tried as deprivation of civil rights under color of law, which has severe penalties.

Just elect Perdue and Loeffler in the GA Senate run offs. All will be well. The votes haven’t even been certified and the Vichy wing of the GOP wants to collaborate with a Biden WH. Pathetic beyond words.

Dear NR,
We’re going to find out, or there will be a revolt.

“The stolen votes are in the millions. When all the truth comes out Trump wins in a landslide.”

I 100% believe this.

The only thing I don’t know is if we have the time and resources to prove it.

Praying hard that we do!

When the process is rotten and biased, there should be no need to prove that the victim would have won if the process had not been rotten. Under NR’ s standard, fraud would seldom lose, unless the fraudsters were unusually careless.

It’s a disgrace. NR died with Buckley. Just more rhino pap, and everything that rhymes with pap.

The recount in GA could be a real gamechanger. They will re-canvass and audit, then recount. As long as it is done with transparency - poll workers and lawyers ready to go - This will really be the tell regarding Dominion.

If it turns out the counts are way off, it could be a snowball effect that would trigger recounts in every county in every state that used this software

McLaughlin compares each city or region to its past record. No comparison to cities in the same region compared to their past. This is a static analysis that does not account for increased shares in black male and Latino demographics. Miami Dade almost went Trump
