88. We'll debate and argue about this, but that won't change any facts.

There's nothing wrong with doing this and I hope they pay attention, instead of just accepting this as it appears. There are some inexplicable discrepancies that need to be pointed out and addressed. If there is a legitimate explanation, great, if there was some tampering and playing games with the machines that do the counting, then that needs to be addressed.

All of the whining and caterwauling that Trump did over the past eight years was to make it even more difficult for Democrats to charge him with election fraud if he were able to commit it. I think it points to the fact that there was some cheating somewhere, and it may be a lot of voter suppression and gaslighting, or it may be fixing the ballot count his way. I have no objection to anyone who wants to look into it.
