Latest House of Representative update.

House, the Republicans had 26 open seats, the Democrats 9. No incumbent running in those districts. The GOP at last count received 48.4% of the nationwide popular vote to the Democrats 49.8%. The GOP has a net gain of 11 seats, flipping 14 Democratic seats to the Democrats flipping 3 GOP seats. The tally with 3 seats not decided yet is Democrats 222, Republicans 210. Last election 236 Democrats, 199 Republicans. Depending on the outcome of the final three districts, NY 22, IA 2 and CA 25, the Republicans are within 8 seats of regaining control of the house in 2022.


It's high past time that we start electing Americans to congress and the presidency who put America first instead of their political party. For way too long we have been electing Republicans and Democrats who happen to be Americans instead of Americans who happen to be Republicans and Democrats.

With all this talk of election fraud, I decided to check to see how the exit polls of over 15,000 voters match up to the actual results. Here’s the exit polls.

https://www.cnn.com/election/2020/exit-polls/president/national-results

According to the exit polls, Democrats made up 37% of those who actually voted, they voted 94-5 Biden over Trump. Rather simple math .95 times 37 comes out to 35.15 while .05 times 37 comes to 1.85. republicans made up 36% of those who actually voted. Trump won republicans 94-6 over Biden. Again .94 times 36 equals 33.94 for Trump, .06 times 36 equals 2.16. Independents made up 26% of those who voted, Biden won independents 54-41. Again .54 times 26 equals 14.04 for Biden and .41 times 26 equals 10.66 for Trump. Exit polling data shows Biden winning 51.35% to Trump’s 46.45% with the rest going to third party candidates. The actual results were 51.1% for Biden, 47.1 for Trump.

Okay, not an exact match, but really close. Of course exit polling is just going by what people told the pollster. But who people told the pollster who they voted for comes within a hair of the actual results. Which if there were massive fraud, one would expect a big difference. Now if the exit polling or folks telling the pollster that 50% of them voted for Trump where as only 46% was the actual results, that would have shown massive fraud. But to be this close to the final results throws massive fraud out the window.

No one ever actually suspected voter fraud. Not even Trump.

Trump was grasping at straws from the start.

Unfortunately he grasped the ones that broke the camel's back.

The whole point was 'The Grift' - Trump grifted $150M from his rubes since the election day.

He's gotta pay that $440M debt somehow after he leaves office. coffee

...and then there's the verifiable paper trail that was left. 95% of voters voted on paper in 2020 as opposed to 82% in 2016.

Congressional Republicans are in a tizzy: Trump has conditioned his base to expect election fraud, so many of his base in Georgia are thinking of boycotting the runoff election. He's sending people to big meetings to tell Republican voters that:

1) The election was rigged, so their votes didn't matter.
2) That they need to vote in January, because every vote counts.

I know they are used to hearing contradictory stuff, but it's hard to believe when the same person says it one right after the other!

I have been closely following all the star witnesses the Overturn the Election Team have presented. The one quality which all have is they appear to be numerologists in search of something to find a hidden message. And yet ... not a single one of these folks has presented a single case of voter fraud.


ignorance is the enemy
without equality there is no liberty
America can survive bad policy, but not destruction of our Democratic institutions

His lawyers talk a good story in the parking lot, but when they get in front of a judge, it's always something like "I have a signed affidavit here from a guy who's wife heard from her cousin about a post on Facebook."

I think most of those lawyers are wary of losing their license, if they present a fraudulent lawsuit. This is why Giuliani wants a pardon.
