All I have is gut feel, but I agree. If half the public truly believed the election was rigged, then we’re a pathetic lot for not being out in the streets daily raising hell in protest. People just say it without believing it. The Jan 6th folks believed it, but there has been nothing since.
- ribosometronome 3y agoIsn't that more or less what happened in 2000, with little to show for it? It all coming down to a confusing ballot in a state run by one of the candidate's brother's, the recounts were ordered stopped, and later analysis showed full recounts would actually have given Gore the state & presidency.
- scarface_74 3y agoThere is no equivalence. They had recounts in multiple states before the election was decided and each case, Biden won by more votes - including my former home state GA where there was a Republican governor and a Republican Secretary of State that stood up to the foolishness. There were no mass protest and certainly no invasion of the Capital. Gore didn’t spend years complaining. He ceded the election and moved on.
