Well, it looks like Dems are cooking up yet another eye-roll inducing scheme for the November election…
That’s right, a dreaded RECOUNT.
According to a report from Axios, a top Democratic data and analytics firm is predicting that Trump will indeed have a landslide win on election night, but will face a stunning defeat over the preceding weeks when the mail-in ballots are counted (and possibly recounted) in Biden’s favor.
What they’re saying: Hawkfish CEO Josh Mendelsohn calls the scenario a “red mirage.”
“We are sounding an alarm and saying that this is a very real possibility, that the data is going to show on election night an incredible victory for Donald Trump,” he said.
“When every legitimate vote is tallied and we get to that final day, which will be some day after Election Day, it will in fact show that what happened on election night was exactly that, a mirage,” Mendelsohn said. “It looked like Donald Trump was in the lead and he fundamentally was not when every ballot gets counted.”
By the numbers: Under one of the group’s modeling scenarios, Trump could hold a projected lead of 408-130 electoral votes on election night, if only 15% of the vote by mail (VBM) ballots had been counted.
Once 75% of mail ballots were counted, perhaps four days later, the lead could flip to Biden’s favor.
This particular modeling scenario portrays Biden as ultimately winning a massive victory, 334-204.
The methodology, described in detail below, was based in part on polling from FiveThirtyEight in August.
The ultimate results may well sit somewhere between these low-end and high-end scenarios and will also be impacted by who actually votes, and how voters’ views about their options change over the coming weeks.
My goodness, these people will literally stop at nothing to gain any sliver of power.
Conservatives on Twitter have also echoed the sheer ridiculousness of this nauseating plot by Democrats:
“Democrats haven’t conceded a presidential election on election night since 1988. They are now laying the groundwork for endless recounts and litigation to prevent a potential Trump win from being certified before Inauguration Day.”

“If Democrats are able to bounce a sitting president after burning down America’s cities, tanking America’s economy, and running a man whose brain is tapioca pudding as the nominee, it will be truly revealing where we are as a nation.”

There’s one thing for certain, the American people will NOT stand for this.
We cannot sit by and allow the Democrats to hijack yet another election with this tomfoolery.
