    .... and the newly popular “stop the count”. This one is particularly surprising because the whole point of elections is that you count the votes. The Trump sponsored madness continues.

    At the end of the day, without a helpful Senate, Biden is severely limited, even if he wins, and we must pray that Moscow Mitch goes into retirement.

      Yes, you count legal votes. The reasonable expectation is that states will not count illegal votes, such as those with invalid signatures, or that were received after the deadline.

        No, I would naturally perceive things like...um...endorsement as endorsement.

        Good for him.

        They've been spineless, hypocritical and a disgrace.
        America - too good to let the conservatives drag it back to 1950.

          Yeah, that's a great outcome.
          Nice scare tactic. Health care is not health insurance.

            Yes, they are not counting disqualified votes, obviously.

              Yes, people without insurance can get health care at the emergency room, which would be more expensive for the government than preventive care.

              But as Terraceth has pointed out, the Affordable Care Act isn't really in jeopardy. (Post #19 in this thread)

                But they are counting votes that should have been disqualified, and that's where the "steal" comes in.
