    Good luck with that, Democrats have been their own worst enemies in that regard.

    Please provide YOUR "definition" of fascism and credible nonpartisan substantiation of your allegations.

    Partisan GWP lacks credibility and therefore automatically NEGATES your allegations if you use it as a source.

    Most states (of any size) don't certify until several weeks after the election

    https://ballotpedia.org/Election_results_certification_dates,_2020

    I was actually surprised my state certifies 1 week after the election, on 11/10... but then again, we have one of the best election systems in the country...

    Well, to be fair, many of us have had some real life experience with neo-fascism over the past 4 years... if only watching it on TV or reading about it on the Net.

    Most don't like it...

    Because he is sitting in his basement tapping away on a keyboard and is looking for anything to reaffirm his stance of every thing Trump does is evil. And now is saying if Biden wins can we just get along.

    I saw a twitter link(and hadn't found it since) that said that sources disputed that Trump said that(because of course). I DESPISE what our media's become. JFK said to "inform and arouse the American People" and unfortunately, the media never took heed to that request.

    Instead, the media itself is a true operation mocking bird.

    no one who thinks KKK and Neo-Nazis are "fine people", can be a legitimate president.



    anyways, no election is finalized until Congress CERTIFIES the election.

    Trump can declare victory all he wants but if Congress disagrees, he is not the winner.

    I don't think the point does "remain". I think there's a valuable lesson here for you about uncritically accepting whatever you hear on TV as truth. It's mostly propaganda, and should be treated with a heavy dose of skepticism.

    As for the meat of the issue of counting "late" ballots: I have no objection to counting every ballot that complies with the jurisdiction's election laws. If, for example, a state says that a ballot has to be postmarked prior to the election, then ballots postmarked afterwards should not be counted, but any that arrive after but were postmarked prior should be counted. Does that seem like a fair and reasonable position to you?

    He's just as free as every other American citizen to declare who the winner is. That's my point here. Just like ABC News and CNN and the AP have done in previous elections. That doesn't give ABC News nor CNN nor the AP nor the President's declarations the force of law, but they're free to make them, agreed?

    It matters to his supporters who are now claiming that election winners must be none on election night or else the election was stolen.

    But you're right, there is a great system that is 99.999% fraud free, and even then, that fraud never makes it to the ballot box. So you'll support the outcome then? Great to hear!

    My failure to remember exactly what two states has no bearing on the fact that there were two states for which late ballots (meaning, ballots that arrived legally but were counted in subsequent days, such as overseas military ballots) delivered a Trump victory for those states. Not everything is propaganda or fact news. Sometimes a fact is just a fact.
    Of course it does. That's what everybody wants. But that's NOT what Trump wants. He is insisting that results should be known on election night and subsequent ballots EVEN IF LEGALLY POSTMARKED AND IN COMPLIANCE WITH STATE LAW should not be counted because according to him there is massive fraud (there isn't). I have no problem whatsoever with following each state's laws. Trump does.

    Sure.. who is opposing that, other than the Trump campaign/Penn GOP?

    The question now is, how long is "arrive after", with the way DeJoy ****ed up the USPS?

    if state law allows late ballots that were postmarked by election day, they will be counted.

    no court would object to such common sense rules.

    votes postmarked late, however, may get trashed.
