You’re trying too hard why simultaneously putting in zero effort.

OK, I googled it:

Just thought I'd address this as every Trump supporter I've come across doesn't seem to understand this.

No, the media doesn't decide who wins the election and only idiots claim this to be true. The media simply broadcasts results in real time as votes are counted. The counts are done by individual states and reported to the media. Political experts within media outlets will then make calls based on what they think the probable outcome is. Certain states, like California can be called before all the votes are counted because the D candidate usually wins with 2:1 or 3:1 margins. Likewise for Texas. I believe votes are still being counted in Texas, but it was called R by the media since it would be impossible for Biden to make up the difference with the remaining votes.

In battleground states, they wait to make the call until the number of remaining votes to be counted couldn't possibly make up the difference. Each battleground that was called for Biden was done so because the remaining votes can't make up the difference.

In the grand scheme of things, media calls mean nothing. It just informs the general public of results. The electoral college decides the election, based on votes tabulated by state level governments.

Google it.

Believe what you will Josh. Isn't labelling people against your leftist crap? he/him? Perhaps I don't identify as that? I may get triggered.

Trump will expose the Dominion electronic voting system. The Dominion system magically has been used in Canada as well, including in the leadership voting for CPC and Liberal Parties of Canada. Used in Canadian elections as well. Don't believe me? Google it, its all there in plain view, or keep your head in the sand. When the fraud comes out, will/should we question our own election integrity? Absolutely!

Supreme Court cannot legally get involved in the federal election until 10 days after the election. Nov 13. This will go all the way up to the Supreme Court. Supreme Court is 6-3 conservative leaning. The legislatures in each of these states is Republican, and the legislatures will make sure this goes to the Supreme Court. Legislatures decide how elections are run, not governors.

Democrats/Liberals will cry, like always, use terrorist groups BLM and Antifa to incite massive violence and unrest when the truth comes out.

The media doesn't decide who wins the election. Please refer to Gore/Bush in 2000. The media declared Gore the winner, however 37 days
later, Bush ended up winning after it went to the Supreme Court. Google it.

Biden and many congressman, senators, etc. will be arrested (both Republican and Democrat).

For 4 years all we have heard about is how "Russia interfered in elections." Now, this election wasn't interfered with? Shouldn't there be transparency on the voting if there is nothing to hide? The irony of it all is hilarious. Funny enough, magically the voting has stopped? How can it be declared, by the media if it is not over? Do you not think it is a little bit weird that we are on day 6, and magically they are still "counting"?

Suggestion, turn off your TV and think for yourself. Read a little bit on history, instead of the stupidity in this forum.

Enjoy the fireworks, I know I will.

Prediction: Trump is still the President until January 2021, and will continue to be thereafter.

I would prefer to see the insulting “head buried in the sand” garbage reserved for sites on the internet that are not CP

I don’t agree that all we have heard for 4 years is that “Russia interfered” in the mechanics of the election, which is your inference.

You know what? Maybe there is not a big conspiracy here.

I know that the US offshored jobs and decimated the manufacturing industry and the middle class in the heartland, so people are upset. Trump gave voice to those people, but didn’t point the finger where it belongs. While he was successful in providing an anti establishment voice, he did nothing to actually sustainably improve the standard of living in those states. He is a con man. Tells people what they want to hear, gets his votes, and doesn’t help. Sure, he made immigration tougher. But immigrants didn’t move manufacturing to places like Asia


How about this? Maybe Trump insulting McCain, who actually served his country, didn’t endear him to Arizona voters. Maybe Stacey Abrams hard work in countering voter suppression helped in Georgia. Maybe DT having no problem with a kidnapping plot against the governor of Michigan didn’t land well with those voters.

As for Dominion machines and voting fraud, this is all spun up as far as I can tell from some early results in Michigan which were caught and rectified

Here is a statement from the Michigan government
https://www.michigan.gov/som/0,4669,...4676--,00.html

Quote:

In response to the false claims made by Republican National Committee chairwoman Ronna McDaniel, the Michigan Department of State issues the following statements of fact:

Michigan’s elections were conducted fairly, effectively and transparently and are an accurate reflection of the will of Michigan voters.

The erroneous reporting of unofficial results from Antrim county was a result of accidental error on the part of the Antrim County Clerk. The equipment and software did not malfunction and all ballots were properly tabulated. However, the clerk accidentally did not update the software used to collect voting machine data and report unofficial results.

Like many counties in Michigan, Antrim County uses the Dominion Voting Systems election management system and voting machines (ballot tabulators.) The county receives programming support from Election Source. Tabulators are programmed to scan hand marked, paper ballots. When machines are finished scanning the ballots, the paper ballots are retained and a totals tape showing the number of votes for each candidate in each race is printed from the machine.

In order to report unofficial results, county clerks use election management system software to combine the electronic totals from tabulators and submit a report of unofficial results. Because the clerk did not update software, even though the tabulators counted all the ballots correctly, those accurate results were not combined properly when the clerk reported unofficial results.

The correct results always were and continue to be reflected on the tabulator totals tape and on the ballots themselves. Even if the error in the reported unofficial results had not been quickly noticed, it would have been identified during the county canvass. Boards of County Canvassers, which are composed of 2 Democrats and 2 Republicans, review the printed totals tape from each tabulator during the canvass to verify the reported vote totals are correct.

The software did not cause a misallocation of votes; it was a result of user human error. Even when human error occurs, it is caught during county canvasses.

It is also completely false that the county had to or will have to hand count all their ballots. The ballots were properly counted by the tabulators. The county had to review the printed tabulator results from each precinct, not each individual ballot.

As with other unofficial results reporting errors, this was an honest mistake and did not affect any actual vote totals. Election clerks work extremely hard and do their work with integrity. They are human beings, and sometimes make mistakes. However, there are many checks and balances that ensure mistakes can be caught and corrected.

Those are just starters. There really are many more.

Additionally, there are likely dozens of civil suits that will get filed the moment that people are able to. Of course, those won't end up in Jail time, but they will likely be numerous enough and correct enough that Trump may wish he could just be in jail.

If you have a point to make, make it. Telling people to google a company name, and then getting huffy is not very productive. So what is your point? Maybe link to something?

The complaint of Russia in the 2016 elections was that they spread misinformation. Not that fake votes were submitted. Every your own arguments are off.

Bush/Gore had a recount in Florida. The Supreme Court blocked ANOTHER recount, and Gore conceded.

Did you use snopes for these references of "100% verifiable" charges? You do realize anyone can sue anyone for anything at any given time, and most of the time its baseless. Kind of like Russian Collusion, Kavanaugh smear, Stormy Daniels, etc.

Correct, and that was just 1 state. There is going to be 10 states in dispute and yet the media declares victory?

I'm not leftist, I would actually descibe myself as being slightly leaning to the right. My political values are most likely to align to the platform that is closest to it. I have no allegiance to any party or side.

I shouldn't be surprised, I guess by your logic, labelling aligns with your crap.
