I would like to see all legal votes counted. Evidently, there are people in some states who are protective of the ballots and of their procedure. They don't want to be watched.
If there is no problem and nothing to see
, why can't Republicans watch, too?



You sound like Krushchev when he looked at photos of missile launchers and claimed he did not see them in that you dismiss all evidence so that you can claim you see no evidence.


But it is all up to the various states. 50 Governors must certify the results. None of them want to get it wrong and get caught. So they will eventually get it right.
Yeah, why all the secrecy if there's nothing to hide?

Isn't "trust but verify" reasonable, especially with something of this magnitude?

I do hope you're right that it will eventually get done right.

Yes, he did - and yes, it is.
There is no reason for early voting, mail in voting, counting votes after Election Day.
Absentee ballots and voting in person only - with voter ID in place, no exceptions - should be the process going forward, in perpetuity.
In addition, COVID is a lame excuse. Many, many people have been working throughout this pandemic, have been out in public, done their shopping, and survived.
The goalposts were moved in favor of Biden, no doubt about it.

Process is up to the states. Aren't you guys all for state's rights?

The only "mess" was caused by Republican state legislatures refusing to submit to local election officials' request to allow processing of mail-in and absentee ballots before Nov. 3. They begged for it and were shot down. Now Trump is using the delays on final counts to attribute "fraud" instead of the truth - in reality it's "Republican stupidity and voter suppression".

The only mess is the petulant toddler's refusal to accept reality and math

It sure sounds like someone you manufactured in your own mind. People complaining about frivolous lawsuits isn't the same as being scared of a recount, everyone knows that recount in WI won't move the dial 20k votes.
Well...you certainly sound scared. After all, you have brought up the issue more than once.

At this point, more than WI needs to be looked at. Again, why are you fussing over this? If you and your ilk think Biden has this in the bag, then you should have no worries about a recount.

BTW, it sure looks like you haven't been keeping up with this issue. Voter fraud complaints have come from many states. Maybe you should do some research before insisting that there are no problems.

Well, you may not be afraid of recounts but many people in this thread sure seem to be.

He did. He made sure to sow the seeds for his petulant whining and his little sheep keep falling for it. So so easy for him to get his base riled up.

Reading the previous person's post, it doesn't seem like he's scared at all. Looks like you're just projecting.

No one has provided any proof of voter fraud.
