    Yep. With good reason. Stop issuing ridiculous opinions and we'll stop ridiculing them. It's as simple as that.

    Lol.

    "I want accurate counts" is apparently ridiculous opinions.

    Such partisans, can't even read simple English without projecting.

    The counts have been accurate. There will always be mistakes. Think of it like petty cash in accounting. Not enough to worry about.

    Your version of "close enough" is the end-all be-all?

    I wonder if you would hold the same position if Trump was ahead.

    The ridiculous opinion, is to hope for an EXACTLY accurate count. Never happens. Human error WILL happen when counting 160 million votes.
    I'm not a partisan. I'm an independent.

    Ballot counting always takes weeks, and there are always one-off mistakes.

    We all want accurate counts. Why would that be a question? When in the course of discussions about the ballot counts and the vote count and all the crap that the Trump cultists such as Giuliani have thrown deriding the vote counting when your response is " I want accurate counts" you are obviously implying that the voter counts were not accurate. If believed as most of us who understand the voting system do that the vote counts were indeed accurate you would not be saying that "I want accurate counts". Why? As I said the counts were accurate. The loser ( Trumpocity) claims that the counts were not accurate and that there was fraud. Yet no evidence was ever produced and in lieaunof evidence Team Giuliani delivers rhetoric to the court.

    You know saying that you want accurate counts is nice but it is jut like saying that you want good health well who doesn't want good health.

    What is your version?

    My version is the real version - not enough to make a difference. Since recounts have never amounted to a hill of beans difference, being ahead by 20,000 votes is "close enough" for any rational person.

    BUT, Trump ISN'T Ahead...

    If one wants to deal in "hypotheticals", there are much more interesting possibilities.

    Which makes the case of Arizona an interesting one... they aren't going to put up with a meaningless recount...

    SNIP
    For races with more than 25,000 ballots — like the presidential contest — the candidates have to be separated by just 200 or fewer votes. Among the almost 3.4 million ballots cast this year, President-elect Joe Biden has a lead of more than 14,000 votes in Arizona.

    Final Count is in

    Milwaukee County +132 Biden
    Dane County +45 Trump
    Net + 87 Biden

    https://www.yahoo.com/news/completed-wisconsin-recount-confirms-bidens-174953527.html

    Except the Trump campaign will file a lawsuit to ignore the recount in Milwaukee County, since he really only wanted the 45 votes in Dane.

    Let's do some math

    -87 votes at 3 million dollars.... It cost the Trump campaign $34,482 per lost vote.

    That's a fiscal genius if I ever saw one..

    Was never about the recount - that was just a delay and now they will sue to throw out all of the "illegal" votes that the recount "uncovered"

    Though to try to throw out ballots in 2 counties, while not reviewing others seems like a violation of fair and equal protection

    Money that could have been better spent if given to a Christmas Charity for Orphaned Children.

    No wonder that Trump LOST in a Landslide.

    His priorities are horrendous.

    In order to throw out illegal votes there has to be illegal votes in existence.

    This is just a continuation of Trumpocity and his Cultists wet dream fantasy.

    True but WI Should certify Monday or Tuesday.

    Too bad there are so many Eunachs in our GOP so a delegation of 25 good Republicans cannot be found to go and explain life to Trumpocity.

    Why do Trumpers say they want an accurate count when literally on election night they were saying to stop the count? I just don't get it.

    A bit tough but it's not a personal attack. I didn't say the other poster is ridiculous. I said the opinions he is issuing, are. And I was reacting to what he was saying, which actually is a personal attack, implying that we are tough internet warriors... which attacks our style, not our opinions. And implies that in real life we'd be cowards. So, I reacted to a personal attack, with an attack on his opinions. Big difference.
