Biden has taken about a 1000 pt lead in Georgia, with well over 99% of the votes counted.

I think Georgia law allows them another week to come in, and be counted (assuming I guess if they were postmarked before Nov 3rd.)
If you're the president, and you wanted to "stop the counting", you might not get to count those votes...which (given traditional military overseas vote) might put Georgia back in your column.
Crazy.
I know when people are frustrated their reasoning goes down and their emotions go up. It's part of human nature. We are all like that. I'm like that. I make an effort to not be like that even when it comes to things where it really is okay to be like that (like sports), but I'm still like that sometimes. But, you have to be able to REASON with yourself...
-Trump is not popular. More people dislike him than like him.
-The Democrats really aren't that sophisticated. Back in 2016 they couldn't even stack the deck within their own party when it came to the primaries without making it look a total shit show with everything on display.
-The Democrats were heavily favored to win. If they were going to rig the election, it wouldn't have been this close, AND they would have rigged the down ballot races as well. They were favored to win a lot of them. It wouldn't have even been that suspicious had they done it and gotten away with it because that's what all the polls were saying anyway.
-A lot of Republicans threw a fit over mail in ballots. Trump himself said to his base not to vote by mail. So, is it really any surprise that so few of them did?? It also appeared at times that things were being done to slow down the mail (ie removing sorting machines). There were certain states where they didn't even want them opening the mail in ballots prior to Election Day. Then, they wonder why it's taking so long and demand that the counting be stopped because they think they're counting rigged votes!!?? No, they're not rigged ballots. They're ballots that are taking longer to count because the procedures that were put in place were seemingly done so with the intention of making this take longer.
If anyone is trying to steal the election, it's Trump. He is now making wild and baseless accusations. The alleged 'vote dumps' were bogus, the allegations of states having more people vote than who was registered to vote were bogus, the fact that a lot of the mail-in votes are going for Biden is TOTALLY understandable, each polling place allows for poll watchers where candidates and parties can appoint people to be there and observe and so far as I know none of the poll watchers who actually have credentials to be there have cried foul. People who just randomly show up on their own and demand to be able to go wherever they want is not the same thing as a credentialed poll watcher that was selected by a candidate or by a party. Trump is a liar who is losing because he isn't popular. It has nothing to do with this being rigged.
But there is zero correlation because it isnt a statewide race.Quote:
