    Nonsense.

    Additional and/or unnessary recounts and investiations just add to the climate of mistrust that Donald has been trying to create around postal votes and the electral process.

    No, all elections are reviewed, and close races are recounted with observers for both sides. Anything else would create distrust. Half the country believes the election was stolen. The winners should prove it wasn't. That would be good for Democrats.

    A lot of those type of people will always believe the election was stolen, no matter what proof you provide to the contrary. Just as they believe, or believed, absolutely ridiculous stuff like that there is a worldwide pedophile ring operating out of a pizza parlour in DC, or Obama is a closet Moslem born, wherever- but not the USA, and brought up as a Manchurian candidate in some sort of conspiracy involving George Soros.

    But yes, I have no objection to whatever assurances can be provided to the sceptical- but it will only work on some. The election wasn't stolen, and your boy lost.

    Not my boy. Rather I find the other side to be modern Bolsheviks and very dangerous. Since America only allows 2 horrible choices every 4 years, Trump was less horrible as he represented a delay in the destruction of free society.

    No they dont. I would say less than 30% the Kool aid drinking Trump fanatics may believe this but most dont. Republicans are speaking up about how Trump should shut up as he has not got a leg to stand on. Remember Pennsylvania is a totally Republican controlled state. That means they are supervising the vote count in PA, and they are finding nothing wrong. In addition there is not one congressional or senate candidate who is complaining about the results anywhere in the country. Only one person bitching. Donald J. Trump who simply refusing to accept facts just as he is doing with the Covid Virus.

    Trump is the one throwing around baseless allegations: it's for him to prove them not others disprove them.

    GOP legislatures didn’t let mail ballots (which favor Biden) get counted until *after* Election Day ballots because Trump ultimately wanted to be able to pretend the election was being stolen from him so they helped facilitate that.

    Now he’s pretending it’s being stolen.

    Indoctrination.

    Trump is a wannabe dictator who has done more to destroy freedoms and democratic processes in the US than anyone.

    Everyone wants to see Trump punted out on his sorry fat retarded ass including me. But this election does happen to be close. Very close. To the point where low level voter fraud could make a difference.

    There has been none. The whole race hinges on Pennsylvania. Their whole state government is Republican and they see nothing wrong. I posted before not one senate or congressional candidate is complaining. Only the big orange kunt. Its over, just waiting for the fat lady to sing.

    306 remember that number two elections in a row.

    Who would wonder that after such tremendous effort - Russiagate, Mueller, whistleblowers, impeachment, Afghan/Russia ransome, you name it - of the ones who want to remove somebody who does not want to play with like all the previous ones - they let the population make a choice?

    Too close for someone that should have won by a landslide.

    Biden has over 4M more votes which will likely exceed 5M and attracted more votes than any president in US history--a landslide by most any definition.

    It's only the laughable US system that makes it 'close'.

    It sure is when in 2016 Clinton got nearly 3 million more votes than Trump and lost.

    Can anyone? But I do know that America has changed enormously in a demographic sense since it was first set up. Surely it is time for reform- but getting anything done at Federal level just seems impossible.

    Trump should be exiled to a country with a similar lack of probity. Somewhere he can work on his tan, and his golf.
    Somewhere like eerrrm ...... Scotland. If he gets bored, he can always whisper advice in Stumpy’s ear, and deny it later. No one will know the difference.

    Yes but they are really redundant since they are expected to give their votes to the candidate that got most votes in a state.
    USA could as well assigns tokens to each state, the same number of tokens as there are electors in the state.

    Candidate with most tokens win, Trump currently have 213 and Biden has 253

    They could give each state a number of goats commensurate with electors in that state. Or small blocks of cheese.

    WTF are you on about?
