You are a proxy for your son. How does that work? Your son tells what candidate he would like to vote and you do the voting for him?

Yeah, precisely that and I appreciate your response Chris

US President-elect Joe Biden announces the teams he will use to ensure a smooth transition in January.

Some 500 staff will work with federal agencies to prepare for the Biden White House.

President Donald Trump still refuses to admit defeat, making unsubstantiated claims of fraud.

Biden says Trump's refusal to accept defeat is an "embarrassment"

Results from the states of Georgia, Arizona, North Carolina and Alaska are still outstanding.

They've pissed me off if that is what you mean. Not that its any of your business foreigner.

[Dowly]

Nope, I'm fairly sure I used the word "scared".


Btw, out of pure curiousity: Do you have to make a conscious effort to be this gullible, or does it come naturally?

Somebodies wife, something that happened in the early 1970's and the unverifiable claims of some anonymous officials cannot be compared to the public words of a sitting member of Congress and a rising power in the Democrat party who is calling for direct action against Trump supporters It's gotten so bad that James Carville of all people has had to warn them that it may hurt their cause (read foil their evil plans).

Agreed

It's going to be a real hoot to watch the reversal of the election to the right side (pun intended)

Mail in ballots, extended early voting windows, and automatic registration/voting techniques will doom the Republican party from now on.

In California they mail every registered voter a ballot and invite them to send them back. Yeah, if you lower the bar enough, you get those kind of people opting into voting, people, who if they have to make a tiny effort, will skip voting. Those people are 1000% more likely to vote Democrat. The Democrats know that. That's their secret sauce, and now that Covid blasted the lid off low-effort voting, the Dems will never let that go.

Roughly 57% of registered voters in the state voted early as of Saturday, shattering previous turnout records with one day of voting ahead. The 9.6 million Texans voting early was a 47% increase from the number of early voters in the 2016 general election. About 735,000 more people voted early this year in Texas than voted in the entire 2016 presidential election, including on Election Day.

As soon as I read that, I knew Trumpo was in deep trouble.

Trump is going to lose the election.

I don't know enough about each state's process on counting, collecting, auditing, verifying ballots to say if there is enough fraud for the publicized results to be overturned. Maybe but probably not. If there is substantial fraud, it shouldn't be difficult to expose it. If the Trump team cannot expose it, then they lose, simple as that.

It's almost as if conservatives might have to think about changing/updating their platform to fit the times.... nah! Let's blame the dems!

If Trump wins the Georgia recount I think it's important to note Biden will still be over the 270 vote threshold.
