It’s late in the day on November 4. The red mirage is steadily giving way to the blue shift. Trump goes on TV and demands that the counting of mailed ballots be stopped immediately in swing states. “Fraud,” he cries, and his followers are mobilizing to assist him.
Hundreds of election supervisors of both parties now have to decide whether to follow state law and continue the count or capitulate to the man on golf cart and his armed militias. What will they do?
Probably get the local judiciary involved. There will be so many lawsuits, it will make your head spin. It will be Florida 2000, only with multiple jurisdictions involved, and mailed ballots taking the place of hanging chads.
Ultimately, it is Trump’s hope that “his” Supreme Court will make the final decision in his favor. Will that happen? My prediction comes tomorrow.
