Sore losers can never accept reality when it goes against them.

None of the Republican nutcases are alleging fraud in Virginia where their candidate won. They only do so when and where they are rejected by voters.

Who claimed "Democrats are the only ones that need mail-in ballots"?

One day to vote, mail in ballots on request.

Results by midnight on election day.

Take away confidence in the process and you deny citizens the only legal avenue to support or oppose policies and politicians. This is very destabilizing to society.

Dems are well practiced in rigging elections as they did in their own primaries with hillary and biden.
The only thing taking away confidence is people spouting off crazy conspiracy theories that do not understand the election process. In one of our local races for Nassau County Exec in 2009 the incumbent Democrat Tom Suozzi was ahead of the Republican challenger Ed Jailgano. Absentee votes put Jailgano ahead of Suozzi days after the election. Was it some conspiracy? No. Jailgano outperformed Suozzi among the absentee mail in votes and his margin there was enough to win the eletion.

Both sides use nail in ballots. Trump has completely railed against it, so Republicans are less likely, but it doesn't mean both sides do not use it. Hell, it use to be more common for Republicans to vote absentee by mail than Democrats.

Everything is a conspiracy to some people. For Governor, Senate and President Bergen has only gone to the GOP once since 2000, that was Christie in 2013 when he ran for his re-election and won statewide by 22 points.

Oberweis declares victory, Underwood says she is waiting for all votes to be counted

EMBED <>MORE VIDEOS
Republican challenger Jim Oberweis has a narrow lead and has declared victory, but incumbent Lauren Underwood said they are waiting until all absentee and mail in votes are counted

WOODSTOCK, Ill. (WLS) -- Incumbent Lauren Underwood is trailing her Republican challenger Jim Oberweis by fewer than 1,000 votes in a close race in Illinois' 14th District.

With 100% of the precincts reporting, Oberweis is leading by 895 votes.

There are still mail-in ballots that have not yet been counted that Underwood said she wants to see in the final tally.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Nov 12th


Oberweis declared victory after taking a slim lead following election night, but thousands of mail-in ballots counted in the days since went in Underwood's favor.

At last count, Underwood was ahead of Republican state senator Jim Oberweis by more than 4,000 votes. Underwood has 51% of the votes, with 200,037, to 49% for Oberweis, who has 195,749 votes.

Oberweis has not conceded, and said he is exploring all legal options - including a possible recount.
You said NO votes went to the GOP. The link doesn't state that. It was well known that Democrats were much more likely to vote by mail, especially with how hard Trump railed against it.

You stick with what works. And it's not like most voters don't know. It's just that they don't care. As long as it's "their" team that comes out the victor. You only call foul when it's the other side that looks to be winning.

How's that?
New Jersey's Democratic governor "should have" won by a larger margin, too, according to the polls in the past weeks.

So how do we know the Republican candidate didn't have a bunch of fake ballots--just miscalculated and didn't come up with enough? LOL.

Whenever banks put money in the safes and it's time to transport, they have armored trucks to make sure they aren't robbed and everything goes smoothly.

Nothing more important than our votes. Why aren't there armored guard or the national guard sent to these site to make sure each is counted correctly and no hanky panky.

At this time in the game, why can't we just have poll voting and if disablef, then they are allowed to vote at home with ID provided of course.

This Covid has just about run it's course. People are out and about like normal in my area. Time to stop ballot harvesting and cheating.

But of course Joey and his crew want to promote Covid and say it's getting worse so people can still mail in dead people votes.
