There were a lot of provisional votes in my polling place yesterday. The experienced Voting Location Manager said there were more than usual. Also many paper ballots.

Some states weren't allowed to count early or main-in ballots till last night.

At least make sure every last vote is counted. Conceding for the sake of the country doesn't make sense. I am not inclined to accept that criminals are running my country, not now and probably not even after all the votes got counted.

Also, get rid of the electoral college.

President Biden needs to expand the (formerly) s.c. now

Do whatever need to be done to delay and confound the criminals getting ready to assault America.

I hope some serious investigation is being undertaken between now and then. pat_k Nov 6 #1
