What does greater margin mean. That is quite the statement.
To me margin would be expressed as percentage. Did I miss new math?
No, you missed standard English usage. Just google up the phrase “by a margin of” in quotes and see how it’s used.

Bahahahahaaaa
Remember when Trump claimed 3-5M fake votes. Started a commission to look into it, and found nothing?
See, now that's funny.

What's funny is you thinking they found nothing.

You're right. It's all right there in the report they never produced.

Ok. Won by a greater margin of votes which may be useful in a recount argument but says nothing of how close the race was compared to other elections.

What's funny is all those precincts with 80%+ turnout.

You suffer from the tyranny of low expectations, and your cynicism is doing a disservice towards your fellow countrymen.
You should cheer and congratulate your fellow countryman for high turnout, not ridicule them for it.

I do cheer all the sentient and alive ones.

@Jolly @Larry It is always difficult when something goes against something you believe in very strongly, or have a lot of belief in. It is difficult for the mind to “rationalize” it. And because of personal bias, the mind does not want to accept the outcome or thinks there must be some reason that caused this to happen.
It happened in 2016. Hillary Clinton supporters could not understand how President Trump could have won. “It is it possible. Everyone I talked to supported her. Why don’t other people see and understand what I see? There must have been something else!”
It happens often when a family member commits a crime. “There is no way that they did. I know them. Something else MUST have happened. They did not shoplift the clothes from the store!!”
So, a conspiracy theory is determined that somehow fits the crime details. There was an international crime ring that just happened to be in the store at the same time. They drugged the shopper, slipped the clothes into their bag, and left them with no memory of this occurring. They also managed to avoid the security cameras, and left no trace of themselves in the store. But, this is the way it HAD to happen. Because they just KNOW.
Isn’t there a famous detective (Sherlock Holmes?) who said that the easiest answer is usually the most obvious one. (Or maybe vice versa)
I get that you (and millions others) are disappointed that President Trump is not reelected. But to try and back fit that the Democrats did this in this state, did a second thing in another state, did a third thing in another state, all the while knowing that these were the states to do it, while ignoring these states is just too wild for me.
The reason President elect Biden won Is that more people legally voted for him than for President Trump. Same as in 2016, when more people legally voted for President Trump over Hillary Clinton.
If, in 2024 President Trump decides to run again, and he wins more votes than the Democrat person, then he will be declared president.

That is known as Occam's Razor, floated by William of Occam in the 14th century (I think). But if William hadn't said it, I bet you're right, that Sherlock Holmes would've.

@Larry said in 80 Million:
Think maybe you ought to wait until they finish before talking about a report?
The Presidential Advisory Commission on Election Integrity was started in Jan 2017 and disbanded in Jan 2018. They were supposed to produce a report, they didn't produce a report.

The easiest answer is that there's a multi-state conspiracy involving low-level poll workers. At some point we'll find their secret communications or meeting spots. Right?
This year they decided to give the Presidency to the Dems, but split congress. They're a fair-minded conspiratorial bunch.

The really sad part of your post is that you seem incapable of seeing that you are rationalizing your own personal bias, and then citing false assumptions as fact, and basically telling us "I'm right and you are wrong, get over it and give up. And no I won't open my mind to the possibility that I'm wrong because I'm not wrong - So there"..
"The reason that 'President elect Biden won is that more people legally voted for him" is a tortured string of bull shit. First, Biden is not the President elect. He may very well be president elect in the future, but right now he is not. So stop demanding that we call him that when it's not the case, and stop talking down to us because we won't give in to your bull shit. Second, as of this moment, Biden has not won anything. He very well be declared the winner in the future, but right now he has not won anything. So stop demanding that we call him the winner when that is not the case, and stop talking down to us because we won't give in to your bull shit. Third, the entire reason for what's going on right now is that it is very doubtful that his vote count is all legal votes. YOU don't get to tell us his vote count is all legal because YOU don't know that for a fact any more than we know it wasn't. That's why they are investigating. So do NOT talk down to me and tell me or anyone else that a man who hasn't been declared the winner whose vote count is being investigated is the winner based on legal votes. You don't know that, you can't prove that, so stop with the condescending "You guys just give up, I'm right you're wrong" bull shit.

LOL. Occam's Razor refers to a concept in philosophy referred to as a razor. I learned what that was (from a post of Jon's IIRC) but have since forgotten what it is.

Most philosophers I know have big freaking bushy beards, so their inability to shave is only matched by their inability to hold down a proper job.
