I don't suppose the following will sway anyone's opinions, as it appears that most of you guys have fixed views re: Trump and the election - but here is some 'fact-checking' which was done by the BBC back in early November.
Your BBC is the = to our CNN. CNN is no longer a news source, but an advocate for the Dems. BBC has a particular point of view that they push. I skimmed your article and without finishing it found 3 errors.
This was not a secure election. In fact, it was probably one of the least secure we have ever had. Did that change the eventual outcome? We'll never know. Several states sent ballots out to all registered voters without checking that those voters were still in the state, or even still alive. A couple of states allowed ballot harvesting so we have no way to know where the ballots came from. Several states did not verify signatures so given the above two actions, we have no way to know that ballots were cast by those for whom the ballots were intended.
Additionally, we have 1st person testimony to weird things happening as ballots were being counted including, but limited to, sudden stopping of counting on one pretext or another, resuming counting after questionable ballots were delivered and Republican party watchers were gone. Fake water leakes and restarting of counting when no one was watching. Problems with voting machines. Suddenly "found" ballots that were for Biden only and often were ONLY marked for Biden and no down ballot people.
This is just a partial list. Again, we don't know that any of this made a difference in the long run, but in almost every state the down ballot Republicans won house seats and local elections. For some reason all those republican voting people decided to then not vote for Trump and vote for Biden?
What we do know is that a large portion of the country does not trust this election and in fact, has not trusted several in the past. No matter who won, the most important thing going forward is that people have faith in the system. The dems spent 4 years carping that the election was stolen from Hillary. We have reason to believe that this election had major problems.
What is the point of participating in a system that we can't trust? We probably ought to fix this or forget the whole thing.
