If Half the Country Thinks Biden Won by Felony Fraud ... It’s Not Over
Trump won a larger percentage of the black vote, female vote, minority vote, Jewish vote and gay vote than he did in 2016. Republicans won 28 of the 29 most competitive House seats (and likely more as results come in), took control of three more state legislatures and probably kept control of the Senate. How did Trump and the GOP do this historically well yet lose the presidency?
I’ve been heavily involved in Arizona politics since 1996. It doesn’t make any sense that the state went for Biden. The most accurate pollster in 2016, Rasmussen Reports, had Trump up by four points in the last poll before the election this year. That’s outside the margin of error. The GOP kept control of the legislature, Rep. David Schweikert won reelection in a close race, and the GOP looks to be winning both the Maricopa County Attorney and Recorder races. There are no significant signs the Democrats did well here.
This is far from over. The legal fight can go on until December 8. Then, the Electoral College votes on December 14. The House tallies the votes on January 6. If the Republican-controlled Senate disputes the electors from a state, that could throw the vote to the House, where each state delegation would get one vote for president. Since Republicans have a majority in state delegations, they could prevail. House Speaker Nancy Pelosi might object, but ultimately the Supreme Court gets to decide.
