My last couple of posts have been, to put it mildly, a tad heated. It has been a bitter year in our cold civil war, and the counting of the votes in our recent election has been unlike anything we’ve ever seen before — in large part due to newly (and in many cases it seems fair to say unconstitutionally) adopted changes in voting procedures. Those new procedures have provided unprecedented opportunities for electoral monkeyshines, hijinks, hanky-panky, chicanery, jiggery-pokery, and general mischief, and it seems to a great many of us that such things have indeed happened on a scale that would tip the balance in key states and races.
I’m strongly of the mind that this seems very likely indeed, and I have expressed my heated vexation in these pages, followed by lively discussions in the comment-threads. I would hate, however, to be guilty of the same suppression of dissenting viewpoints as our cultural overlords, so here is a piece by Anatoly Karlin, a familiar voice to many on the Right, arguing that accusations of game-changing fraud in this election are overblown.
Mr. Karlin’s essay has a lively comment-thread of its own. Feel free to comment here as well.

Your anger and frustration is understandable. From a thousand miles away in India, I can see and smell the fraud of the Democrats. It’s too obvious except to the most indoctrinated Left.
Overblown? Since 2016, we have had a steady drip drip of #Resistance, de-legitimize Trump’s presidency, create a Russia conspiracy hoax within the outgoing Obama adm, entrap and frame people to act as operatives against Trump for the benefit of perjury traps, hear the big tech firms swear that 2016 will not be repeated, see our “free press” throw in with the deep state to advance the Trump “collusion” lie, see our Congress impeach Trump basically for the crimes of the Biden Family…and more.
Do I think that this same cabal would engage in election fixing as well? You can bet your ass I do. By any means necessary. All these “gaming graphs” don’t impress me. I understand the world of flesh and blood operatives doing their dirty work. Proof in court may very well be hard to come by because evidence may be difficult to produce in a world of bleached clean emails, erased phone mails of every lawyer working for Robert Mueller “investigation”, lost documents at the DOJ and IRS and on and on. Paper ballots can be accidently hauled away for disposal and most likely will be. Vote tabulation software can and has malfunctioned, so far in one direction only.
The only way to even come close to removing the foul taste of this presidential installation is with a thorough investigation via the courts-Trump’s utterances not with standing.
Well, I completely agree, of course. Robert. Still, I thought I should post this dissenting argument in the interest of airing possible objections.
As I write the press is trumpeting that Biden has now wrapped up the Presidency. Soon a great many of us who support the idea of continuing to dispute this resolution will be subject to even more intense gaslighting. It’s vitally important to stay committed to a thorough examination of what happened here, and to insist on letting the legal process run its course. If the election was as legitimate as the Democrats say it was, they should have nothing to fear — and if it was as crooked as it plainly seems to have been, we should leave no stone unturned in trying to overturn it.
Malcolm, agreed. It was the proper thing to post and does no harm to the overall topic. Technical objections to Trump’s legal fight impress technical people. Odd that AP and other media have called this for China Joe right when Trump is introducing actual poll workers who are relating their experiences right now. 2020 is a year of mystery and immaculate timing!
Well, Robert,, the media can call it all they like, but it isn’t up to them.
What they can do is to foster a climate of opprobrium against those of us who suspect skulduggery against the President and to provide cover for it. But of course that’s what they’ve been doing for since Trump came down the escalator.
JK,
The thing’s been on its deathbed for some time now.
Honest Indian,
Thanks. This is going to be, in addition to everything else, a gigantic psychological battle. I appreciate your support.

If Trump is forced out of office, I will cancel my voter registration and never vote again. That won’t save me from the Purges, since they’re openly planning to arrest and “re-educate” all registered Republicans who voted in 2016 and 2020, so it’s worth looking for other countries to emigrate to.
Russia recently passed a Homestead Act to attract settlers to eastern Siberia, but you don’t get 160 acres, you get two and a half. A hectare sounds like a lot of land to a city-dweller, but in a vast, trackless wilderness with severe winters, it’s nothing.
So yeah, marry a Russian and claim your free patch of woodland. The language is fiendishly hard to learn, but if your neighbors are other American refugees, you won’t have to.
If that doesn’t appeal to you, stand and fight for God-Emperor Trump.
Trump has issued a statement saying;
Voters decide elections, not the media.
No election never mind contested states certified.
What is Biden camp hiding?
See you in court Monday.
Actually brilliant. He’s trolling them by ignoring them.
