Referring to allegations of tampering, Spoon mentioned the following as evidence:

“Photos of fundamentalist Christian Activists posing at election offices wearing T-Shirts emblazoned with firmware passwords to access the tabulation software.”

Must say, I have not verified the quote in link is true. But sounds believable.

than reality, which is why so many people believe them.

The reality is that for several reasons - the border, inflation, Gaza - the turnout on the Dem side was down and the swing voters switched to Trump. There was a rightward shift across the board, including in the blue states.

Or that where she would arguably qualify, it may be too early to demand a recount -- the final tallies are still in the process of being certified.

The two states where she might be eligible to seek a recount -- Wisconsin and Michigan -- would only net her 25 electoral votes -- in the highly unlikely event a recount reversed the outcome. Not enough to give her the win.

And, most notably, there doesn't appear to be any attorneys out there willing to pursue Spoonamore's cockamamie theories in court -- not surprisingly since any sane attorney would recognize that they'd be risking their law licenses to do so.

not an attack. Let's get real here and realize who the guy on the other side is.

We were told, by the campaign, that Trump is an existential threat to Democracy and that this is the most consequential election of our lifetime. And so it is. This is the least that can be done for us on this side of what, by the definition we have been given and of which we were convinced, is an electoral disaster. Doing this convinces me they believed what they told us.
