(25,960 posts)54. Please - I Don't Disagree With Your Stand On The Peaceful Transfer Of Power.....
In the best of cases - I totally agree. But if there is a chance that we were snookered - and many polls were skewed to the Right. If there is a chance that there maybe was some cheating or stealing of votes going on. Wouldn't you want to challenge that?
I believe that Al Gore is still being criticized for not challenging the election he lost.
I'm just saying - I don't believe it is smart to peacefully transfer power - just to show that the Dems are different than Tr**p and the Repugs.
You can still transfer the power peacefully after all doubt is eliminated and you really lost. If it is questionable though - I believe a challenge is in order.
After all - Tr**p was saying he'd go peacefully - only if he won.

OP
Many dems won down ballot but they voted for Trump at the top of the ticket. Quit looking for conspiracy when none exist

I don't give a damn about "what they might do" all the way to a hot civil war to protect the integrity of the election

The vote counts go on until December 11. It's too soon to say we're suckered into accepting ANYthing.

Vice President Harris said she was the underdog from day one. Polling guaranteed it.

Both sides get internal polling. I'm sure his looked good. Vice President Harris said it was close.
