Geee Posted January 26, 2021 Share Posted January 26, 2021 Real Clear Politics Since the day after the 2020 presidential election, I have said I am agnostic with regard to whether the election was honestly or dishonestly decided. The primary reasons for my agnosticism are the usual ones: The anomalies: In 132 years, no president has received more votes in his run for reelection and lost. Yet Donald Trump received 10 million more votes in 2020 than in 2016 -- and lost. Trump won 18 of the 19 counties both Democrats and Republicans regard as the "bellwether" counties that virtually always go with the outcome of presidential elections. Yet he lost. He won four bellwether states -- Florida, Ohio, Iowa and North Carolina. Yet he lost. Republicans held onto all the House seats they were defending and gained another 13 seats. Yet, Trump lost. Add the following to the anomalies: Unprecedented efforts were made in some states to change election laws. Mostly Democratic states sent out tens of millions of ballots or applications for absentee ballots to people who never requested them. Voting began in some states six weeks before Election Day. People have submitted sworn affidavits at great personal cost and with possible perjury charges that they witnessed ballot tampering on election night. But all these things would matter little if Democrats involved in ballot-counting felt morally compelled to count votes honestly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
