The media doesn't decide it. Sorry. The courts will. Just in case you forgot, Gore v. Bush.

Gore v Bush was a matter of less than 600 votes to decide the election. Biden won by a very large margin. The two scenarios are in no way similar.

I don't think anyone said the media decides elections. But for the record the courts don't decide elections either, just in case YOU forgot.

Sure they may decide an election here and there but I'm not sure why you are making the blanket statement courts decide elections.

Another MAGA snowflake who claims to be a "conservative" but doesn't understand how the constitution works.

First you need evidence. You can’t just pull accusations of fraud and cheating from thin air. It doesn’t work that way.

The voters in each state decide the election.

And keep in mind the basic argument there was "what constitutes a vote" (i.e. "hanging chads"). As you said these two are NOTHING alike, so I'm not sure why these Trumpers are acting like they know what they're talking about.

The MAGA snowflakes don't even understand how elections are conducted in this country.

No, numbers do. You are free to count yourself. No state court to this point is buying Trump’s claims. He needs to start packing.

You're right, they don't decide an election.

They just report the results.

Everyone knows they can't officially declare a victor, but they can inform the public about who got the most votes.

And they will also report on the results of the court cases that are ensuing.

Been hearing "starts tomorrow" for almost a week now. Historically, recounts don't swing votes but hey I guess when you got nothing you got nothing to lose!

But I guess we'll find out when Team Trump has the next press conference at the Ritz Carlton Total Landscaping and Septic Services garage.
