3. Another candidate endorsed by Trump loses

Republicans really moved heaven and earth to keep Kelly on the Wisconsin court, and failed miserably. Each extra cap letter in Trump's shoutycracker tweet is another point up on the Sting Scale. Trump is badly stung.

Tell the Democrat Governors that “Mutiny On The Bounty” was one of my all time favorite movies. A good old fashioned mutiny every now and then is an exciting and invigorating thing to watch, especially when the mutineers need so much from the Captain. Too easy!

Oh my goodness.

That can’t be real, can it?

Really?

Really?

I had kind of thought fears of him doing something completely unhinged when he loses the election in November were overblown, but right here he’s pretty much telling us us he’s going to try something, right?

12. North Carolina elections board orders new House election after election fraud
Tue Apr 14, 2020, 11:25 AM
Apr 2020
There will be a new House election in North Carolina’s Ninth Congressional District, after the state elections board ruled Thursday that a bizarre ballot tampering scheme had tainted the basic fairness of the November vote.

The new election would start with a new primary election, under a recently passed state law, to determine the Democratic and Republican candidates. On Election Day, Republican Mark Harris led Democrat Dan McCready by fewer than 1,000 votes, but his win was never certified by the state after allegations of electoral misconduct became public. The timing for the new elections will be announced soon.

Over the past four days, state investigators laid out in detail an “unlawful,” “coordinated,” and well-funded plot to tamper with absentee ballots in a US House election that remained uncalled more than three months after Election Day — finally bringing some clarity to one of the strangest election scandals in recent memory.

State investigators established their theory of the case — that a Republican operative, Leslie McCrae Dowless, directed a coordinated scheme to unlawfully collect, falsely witness, and otherwise tamper with absentee ballots — and workers who say they had assisted him in the scheme delivered damning testimony describing their activities. Dowless himself refused to testify, on the advice of his lawyer.

Election fraud by republicans is the problem ... nothing by legitimate votes ... I am so tired of the cheating and hypocrisy
