| Whoa: Nearly a Third of Democrats Believe the Election Was Stolen From Trump |
| 2020-11-20 |
| [PJMedia] While the election hasn’t been certified, and the results are pending litigation, the media has effectively crowned Joe Biden the victor in the 2020 election, and voters have some strong opinions on the matter. According to a Rasmussen poll conducted November 17-18, nearly half of likely voters, 47 percent, believe the election was stolen from Trump. If Joe Biden is ultimately certified as the winner, there will undoubtedly be a big fat asterisk on his presidency. This should be very concerning for Joe Biden. President George W. Bush had the 2000 election cast a dark shadow over his presidency, with many Democrats to this day refusing to acknowledge his presidency as legitimate. If Biden is confident in the legitimacy of the results as they stand now, he should be willing to let the process continue, and should publicly express his support for this. But, Joe Biden’s problems are not simply because many Republicans believe the election was stolen. It’s true that the poll showed a significant partisan divide on this issue: 75 percent of Republicans believe it is very likely (61 percent) or somewhat likely (14 percent) that the election was stolen from Trump. But, according to the poll, while 69 percent of Democrats say it is not at all likely (61 percent) or not very likely (8 percent) that the election was stolen from Trump, 30 percent of Democrats believe it is very likely (20 percent) or somewhat likely (10 percent) that it was. Despite the fact that nearly half of all voters believe the election was likely stolen from Trump, 61 percent believe Trump should concede. How many Democrats believe it is likely that the election was stolen, but think Trump should concede anyway? That’s quite a disturbing thing to consider. |

| #11 Wonder how many involved or aware of the cheating have had some buyer's remorse. Wouldn't be the first time someone took a job, got shit on the whole time, cashed the check, then told the world what they thought about that. |

| #9 One wonders how many of those Republicans who think President Trump should concede the election even though they believe it was stolen are NeverTrumpers... NoMoreBS, Mr. Wife says he is seeing a run on paper products. Also the local Kroger ran out of eggplant, so I will have to finish the moussaka after his next grocery run. I don’t understand the concern about toilet paper — the company that owns Charmin and Bounty is headquartered here. |

| #6 And with leaning polls as well. Total failure. Is this showing up elsewhere Rantburgera? Hearing such things; like all the supplies for chili being off the shelf before a cold front comes through. If you are just now thinking of squirrel things, you may be too late. |

| #4 Says more about the failure of the media narrative than anything else. They could not have pushed this harder, and they are failing to convince anyone. |

| #1 They don’t care. Absolute power corrupts absolutely. The meek, and innocent dupes think it was bad but maybe it will all be the way it used to be now that the bad man is gone. They still want to believe their moral superiority. The rest of them are plotting things to rule permanently in a Marxist paradise, and those of us on the right are buying more ammo and bunkering In. As an aside, my bi weekly WalMart shopping increasingly is showing an increasingly wide range of shortages in pharmaceuticals, patent medi ation like eye care products and packaged meats. Prices are up and the unending shrinkage of product size show that inflation and shortages are on the rise. Is this showing up elsewhere Rantburgera? |
