LOL. Okay.
How about the hundreds of thousands trucked in in the dark of night while voting was unprecedentedly "frozen" in the swing states. Were those done for all to see too?

It was a coup. Accept it.

What about them? Well they don't matter.

The president is elected by a few hundred Electoral College votes, and a huge part of why the US has the EC system is specifically to avoid involving thousands of questionable ballots.

We know and can verify every single elector's ballot. Trump lost by 74, and we can verify each of those 74 votes.

The thousands of ballots you have questions about just don't matter either way.

@volkris @whatabout @icare4america Except that The states run their own elections in order to determine who the Electors in the electoral college will be. And every state uses the vote of the people to do it so it certainly matters. Secondly, that is NOT the reason for the Electoral college. The reason for it was too keep large states from railroading smaller states.

If the reason was to keep large states from railroading smaller states there would have been much simpler ways to do that.

In The Federalist Papers the founders themselves refute the idea that the point of the EC was just to prevent railroading.

But really, none of that matters. The EC is what it is, and regardless of why it came to be, we can see that Trump really did lose the one vote that mattered.
