The ownership corporation of local Raleigh news outlet WRAL is very upset that people are denying that China Joe won the election
Editorial: Biden won. Time for the deniers to declare it, too
It is time, well past time really, that our members of Congress – particularly those representing North Carolina who have been arguing otherwise – declare that Joe Biden got the most legally cast popular votes and got the most properly assigned Electoral College votes. He is the constitutionally elected president of the United States.
No on is asking anyone that they must be happy with the results. No one is asking anyone that they must agree with all the duly elected president stands for or says. Just state simply that Biden won the election fair and square.
(a bunch of complaints about what Trump has said)
The election wasn’t stolen. Of 62 lawsuits filed in state and federal courts around the nation challenging voting and election procedures and processes, 61 failed. The lone victory, in a Pennsylvania court, affected a very few votes and had no impact on the election outcome in a state where Biden received 81,660 votes more than Trump.
Rep. Greg Murphy of Greenville, says he objected to the Electoral College votes from Pennsylvania because of a “constitutional breach.†What knowledge and expertise does he possess, what FACTS does he command, that state and federal judges – including members of the nation’s Supreme court – lack?
It takes more than simply declaring, as Rep. David Rouzer of Wilmington did that: “There are just too many aspects of concern, too many irregularities and clear violations of the U.S. Constitution by several of the states in question, which is why so many instinctively have little confidence that the presidential election was fair.â€
There’s a bunch more complaints along those lines from the Capital Broadcasting Company’s editorial board, which ends thusly
Quit it already. There’s no requirement for anyone be happy with the outcome of an election.
But when the results are tallied, and when they are as thoroughly examined as the results of the 2020 presidential election have been, members of Congress in particular should be happy that democracy prevailed.
They must state, without qualification, that Joe Biden is the duly elected president of the United States.
Interesting. I’ve looked back in their archives, and I cannot find anything telling Democrats to do the same while Dems were caterwauling about Russia Russia Russia. Not in the time period between the election 2016 through February 2017. Nor in the months after the Mueller Report was released, which basically stated that Democrats were full of mule fritters. We were treated to four years of Democrats denying that Trump legitimately won the election.
