Steal This Election
What makes you think Democrats would steal this election?
Michael Barone notes that Trump has grudgingly accepted defeat but hasn’t called off the legal dogs.
There’s a reason for that:
In violation of longstanding norms, Obama administration intelligence and law enforcement agencies spied on the opposition party campaign. Officials proffered the dodgy Steele dossier before the FISA court without revealing it was paid for by Hillary Clinton’s campaign.
…Again and again, leading Democrats — Hillary Clinton, Rep. Jerrold Nadler, the late Rep. John Lewis, Joe Biden, Jimmy Carter — called Trump an “illegitimate” president. For three years, Democrats advanced the Russia-collusion hoax without finding or producing any evidence except for the discredited Steele dossier.

Trump Still Following Hillary’s Advice
Donald Trump is still following Hillary’s advice by refusing to concede the election. His attorney general says he’s seen no widespread evidence of fraud but Trump still says the election was rigged. Especially in Georgia.
Yet he’s holding a get out the vote rally on Saturday in Georgia for a Jan. 5 Senate runoff election. It’s important because if Republicans don’t win one of the two races that day they lose control of the Senate.
Meanwhile, fraud investigators Sidney Powell and Lin Wood, and are urging voters to boycott the election.

The String is Running Out for President Trump
Like Rudy’s dripping hair dye at his press conference last week, it looks like the string is running out for President Trump. He’s allowing the transfer of power to begin.
Virus Pandemic in Team Biden’s Court
The virus pandemic is in Team Biden’s court now. And, as luck would have it, they got an assist from Pfizer’s announcement that a 90% effective vaccine is on the way.
President Trump wasn’t happy about Pfizer’s timing. And it looks like the vaccine will be here before his concession speech.

Shy Trump Voters Not so Mythical After all
Shy Trump voters proved to be more than a myth.
There’s no such thing as a shy Trump voter

Right now, the biggest issue is the trust deficit. And pollsters did not do a good job in 2016. So if Donald Trump surprises people, if Joe Biden had a 5- or 6-point lead, my profession is done

Why have pollsters blown two presidential elections in a row?The problem seems to be pollsters can’t get a straight answer from some Trump voters. And for good reason:
If all you hear day in and day out that Trump is an evil, racist monster, then it’s going to make it less likely you admit to supporting him, including to pollsters.
The effect of ‘shy’ voters is known among pollsters as ‘social desirability bias’, as Nate Silver of FiveThirtyEight explained in an article ahead of the election explaining why Trump could still win.
