    If you want to know what Democrats are guilty of...simply see what they are accusing others of doing.  THAT is what they're guilty of doing.

    "Will Democrats accept election loss? New report says no.

    But there is another, equally pressing question: Will Democrats accept the results of the election if Joe Biden loses? A new report suggests the answer could be no.

    The report comes from a secretive group called the Transition Integrity Project. A bipartisan, anti-Trump organization, TIP was created last year by Georgetown law professor Rosa Brooks and historian and think tanker Nils Gilman, "out of concern that the Trump administration may seek to manipulate, ignore, undermine or disrupt the 2020 presidential election and transition process."

    So those are the four scenarios. In only one did a candidate win a clear victory and the opposing candidate refuse to accept the result. And the loser who refused to accept the result was Biden — not Trump."

      They didn't accept the last elections results, they certainly won't accept this one.

      I think when one considers this, many of the efforts in Democrat controlled States (CA, NY, WA) begin to make more sense, they are allowing things, and putting into action, activities and events that have no regards for future elections, they have no regards for the Federal authority or any authority not aligned with their own.

      In a recent election in NY a June primary vote in which an estimated 20% of New York City mail-in ballots were thrown out due to technicalities.

      20%

      You can bet there will be no acceptance by the Democrats of any election result they do not win.

        How sad we have had a four year temper tantrum by the media. I thought the Democratic slogan was "Hate has no home here." Does that exclude them? I am saddened by what is going on.

      No the Dem's will not accept the election results if Trump wins. They did not last time and this time will be no different.

        I don't know where you come up with this Sharlee? Did not the Democrats accept Trump as President? It is true that we did not care for his governance, but no one interfered with his term of office nor prevented him from takin the oath January 20, 2017.

        Was there not a valid concern about Clinton winning by 3 million votes in the popular vote tally, the same way GW Bush won in 2000 with a minority of the popular vote?  That was the way the cookies crumbled, we lived with it but that does mean we have to like it and sit in some corner somewhere in silence.

          Does Russia Russia Russia sound familiar? Does impeachment ring a bell? The Dem's never to this day have accepted president Trump. Most do not even address him as President Trump, but Mr. Trump. The news has been pouring out for a week about the Comey Russian witchhunt. Factual evidence including Sally Yates's testimony from last week. And I agree they did not agree with his way of governing, in my view because he made tall look so easy, Made fools of them, showed them for what they were... Do nothing shell games barkers. Hey, we have a system of electing a president. And you would have been fine if the EC put the size 9 shoe on Hillary's foot, would you not?  You have one vote as I do, not sure it wise to ever use the word "we".  Many say one thing and when chips are down, voted for the better candidate.

          If Biden wins, will we also have to swallow him taking the oath from his basement? If you can vote for a man that forgot to campaign, not sure where you are coming from.

            The Republicans impeached Bill Clinton, what is your explanation for that?They were trying to bring down a man who rather than preside over a disaster was presiding over the go-go economy of the 1990s.

            I can vote for a man that at least from my perspective will not be taking us backwards, that is easy for me to do.

            We all vote for whom we think is the "better candidate". It is just that my opinion of who that is is substantially different from yours.

            In modern times, the Electoral College has benefitted GOP Presidential contenders and as demographics change, they will be relying on this "failsafe" so much more to "eke" out victories.

            He is there isn't he? If we did not accept him he would not be there. I still have issues with the man's ethics and integrity in the performance of his job, but again that is just me.

    Look fellows, we accepted the 2016 results even though we don't have to like it. The question is will Republicans and Trump accept the verdict of the voters if they don't win in 2020 that's the real question right now

    and for the sake of future Harmony there had better not be any problems on that score or there is going to be trouble in River City.

    This shows the disconnect of the democratic mind from reality. They spent three years complaining that Trump didn't really win the election. They'll do it again in 2020.

    If Biden were to win, I think the democrats have set the stage and the right will follow suit.

    1. Credence2 profile image79
      Credence2posted 4 years agoin reply to this

      No, it shows your disconnect from reality. Trump is the sole candidate that did indicate that he would not step down if he lost. Did Biden ever make a similar threat, can you show documented evidence?  Your right wing bias comes through loud and clear.

        Credence, whatever the outcome, no matter how tainted the results may seem, I wouldn't support Trump not stepping down. I'm not biased. I'm a realist. Trump runs his mouth a lot. It doesn't mean anything. The left run their mouths and they have been whining for years, supporting Hillary in her whining, etc

        If it is a shady scenario we've got a pickle and I think the democrats would be tickled with the outcome. Especially the House. They've been attempting to usurp power and neuter another branch of the government for three years.

          Trump cannot not step down.  If he remains in the White House he is trespassing (if nothing else) and will be removed by force.  No one will follow his orders, his little papers ("executive" orders) mean nothing.  His only hope would be a coup with the military and that isn't going to happen.

    One of the biggest problems we have EVERY election is voter fraud.  I could post many articles about Democrats stealing election and liberal judges permitting such a thing.  It's the way it is when dealing with Democrats.  I'll post just one about the realities of voter fraud and how the Democrats are planning to steal the election.

    "Voter Fraud Is Real—Here's How Democrats Want to Steal the 2020 Election

    Anyone who denies the existence of voter fraud in the U.S. needs to go to Heritage's online database, where they will find 1,285 proven instances of it—including 1,110 criminal convictions. Some of the stories are quite striking. In 2016, for example, Elbert Melton, the former mayor of Gordon, Alabama, illegally notarized two ballots, without witnesses present, while running for re-election. Melton won the race by only 16 votes—many local and state races are decided by such small margins. He was convicted of absentee ballot fraud, removed from office and sentenced to one year in prison.

    The biggest way to expand voter fraud is to expand voting by mail. And Democrats want to impose universal vote-by-mail across the country."

      Why can't mail in ballots not be an attempt at voter fraud by the Republicans?

      We are in a pandemic, Mike, people should not have to decide to either not vote or not get sick.

      Why do Republicans always say that greater vote numbers benefit the Democrats? Are the GOP afraid of more eligible voters weighing in rather than less?

      1. wilderness profile image95
        wildernessposted 4 years agoin reply to this

        "Why do Republicans always say that greater vote numbers benefit the Democrats?"

        Perhaps because greater vote numbers pretty much mean illegal votes.  Anyone, legal, that wants to vote can do so now; increasing the number simply means that those that are NOT legal have found a way to vote illegally.

        That is not to imply that certain "hot button" elections cannot produce more (legal) voters, but it does mean that lacking that "button" the extra voters are likely illegal.  If they were not then we could have expected them to vote in the past and there would be no increase.

        1. Credence2 profile image79
          Credence2posted 4 years agoin reply to this

          But, Wilderness, perhaps it is not. There was a lot of turnout in 2008, that does not imply illegal voters but motivated people who were determined to cast a ballot and make a needed change. it is a matter of interest and stirring up the right crowd to recognize the urgent need to cast a ballot. 2020 will be an election cycle that would in itself elicit a high response and participation.

          Large turnout does not correlate to a flood of illegal voters, that are the fears of conservatives afraid that those legal registered voters that do not vote regularly will be sufficiently motivated to do otherwise this time.

          That is what lies behind their concept of voter suppression.

          1. wilderness profile image95
            wildernessposted 4 years agoin reply to this

            You make my point for me.  2008 DID have a "hot button"; the recession.  2020 will be the same with Trump. 

            Yes, there was a large crowd voting, and that in itself points to the fact that we have no need to work hard to gain more voters.  People will vote when they want to.

        This is from the article. It clearly defines the problem with mail-in ballots. 

        "The problem with mailing ballots like this is that lists of registered voters across the country are in terrible shape, and states do a poor job of cleaning their voter rolls. In fact, most states have given up on doing so. Every time they try, well-funded liberal groups accuse them of purging active, eligible voters from the rolls to suppress voting. As a result, ballots get mailed out to people who no longer live at the same addresses because they have moved or died.

        Therefore, a precious item, perhaps our society's most valuable—the ballot—is just out there, for anyone to exploit. It isn't that difficult to imagine how people could fill out fraudulent ballots, mail them in and have them counted."

        Republicans believe the right to vote is scared.  Democrats believe there are tools they can use the get their desired outcome.  Democrats don't care if their person is voted in legally, illegally as long as they hold office.  I've seen it with my own eyes happen more than once. 

        The problem is that Democrats don't value an honest election because in that case, they always lose.

          Well, Mike the Dems did not lose in 2012, 2008, 1996, 1992, etc. were those elections rigged?

          If so, can I same the same regarding 2000, 2004 or 2016, for that matter.

          How is it that every time Dems win, the election is rigged but not the case with Republicans?

            I'm talking about more than the presidential election.  So, why is it Democrats have an issue with removing dead people from voting rolls?  Trust me, dead people in Democrat areas vote Democrat.  Even if they voted Republican when they were alive.  Senate races have been determined by absentee ballots sent AFTER polling has been closed.  Think about that for a minute, in a close election liberal judges well permit absentee ballots post-marked after the day of the election.  I and many others believe there is something very wrong with it.  THAT and others types of voting fraud skills are what Democrats bring to elections on ALL levels.

            Democrat voter fraud is the reason Al Frankin was able to become a senator. 

            Read about it.

            https://www.usnews.com/opinion/blogs/pe … oter-fraud

            There is so much voter fraud by so many Democrats in so many types of elections that if I tried to provide links to all of the articles, it would probably crash they HP system.

            Mail in voting is perfect for the dishonest voter-fraud driven Democrats.  That is why it should never even be a consideration by anyone who wants fair elections.

          Would you consider it "pretty incredible" if tens of thousands of votes are "lost" somehow?  or hundreds of votes in a single state are found to be illegal, without a thorough search?

          Or does "pretty incredible" just encompass another win by Republicans?

                  This is a fact from the link you provided.  It has no proof of anything and only "unconfirmed reports."  So, why would anyone value an unconfirmed report and believe it is proof of anything?  I can cite unconfirmed reports all day, I don't because it is propaganda.

                  From the link you provided

                  "Minnesota Governor Tim Walz cited unconfirmed reports Saturday that white supremacists had been behind violent protests in Minneapolis where Floyd, who was African American, died last Monday.

                    Unsubstantiated and unproven you mean.

                    Like many things created by the Liberal Media.

                    Like  how Trump is a Russian conspirator/puppet... that they had absolute proof of, until it was proven beyond a doubt they didn't.

                    Or how Mr. Floyd was deliberately and maliciously murdered, until the bodycam footage from the police showed he wasn't.  It was tragic, even callous, but not premeditated or directly intended.

                    Another "fact" the liberal media will conveniently avoid reporting on because it doesn't fit their agendas or bias.

                    At some point in time, a rational and observant individual is forced to notice how issue after issue, is reported with bias, or outright false information.  A scary thought...

                    Because it proves there are still many that are neither rational or observant enough to recognize what is being fed to them.  There are plenty of Americans that still believe CNN is news.

                    Sorry, I was a bit rushed let me provide a better source of evidence, unless you all are going to tell me that it is liberally biased. But that is the same explanations you all always give when data is contrary to what ideas you have already embraced, regardless of the facts. So, you tell me who have proven the most dangerous beyond having paint thrown upon them?

    Young voters: "We cannot go to polling stations and vote with ballot boxes like you guys used to do before this COVID THING! We have to have Mail-In voting, otherwise we'll get really sick and die due to this COVID THING."

    Everybody else: "Okay maybe the youth is right, I mean they've always been so PRECIOUS."
