Second, i feel IF and i sat IF this bullet ballots are true, why would anybody here be against a recount? I feel we are at a crossroad where from the very first day TFG gets back in the white House our country is DOOMED. As an American, i feel it's everyone's duty to at the very least SAVE our democracy! I personally I will do everthing in my power to stop these EVIL bastards from doing what they want to do!! Please IF we can get a full recount DO IT!
