I don't think that gave you skepticism cause it was legitimate, I think it gave you skepticism cause you were looking for reasons to be fair and balanced.

Yeah sure bureaucracies **** up, but if the end result is that you end up siding with a wannabe fascist who's just selling an excuse to maintain power then maybe you're a moron. I mean come on you probably never shed a single brain cell worrying over election viability until a sociopath who knew he could manipulate idiots gave you the right narrative to eat up.

Seriously how much did you worry about this four years ago? Eight years ago?

I've given you sources, and you continue to attribute your imaginary motivations to me.

I'm not siding with anyone - I'm saying that there's a potential for meaningful fraud. I'm not saying, like Trump is, that if he loses then the election must be rigged. You just admitted that "bureaucracies **** up" - that's the whole point. We're going to have an unprecedented amount of mail-in ballots. You said that there was no reason to believe that there may be reasons to contest the election results. Considering, as you pointed out, things can go wrong (especially considering the scale), that's enough reason to be suspect of the results, for either side. Hillary has suggested that Joe shouldn't concede under any circumstances, and I agree. It will take time to tabulate the results, it might take over a month, or even longer. Though Hillary's claim is founded on the idea that Republicans will try to "mess up absentee balloting", her recommendation is applicable to both sides. This will be an unprecedented kind of election.

Again, this election will be unlike previous elections.
