Trump's reaction to losing
-
"The best pollster in Britain" is apparently an opinion piece in the Daily Express written by a DC-based right wing organisation., the Democracy Institute.
Trump really is a clown.

Trump really is a clown.
The only clowns I see are all democrats.

The election was stolen. But it won't matter.
The same sorry, low-life bastards who promoted a three year old witch hunt about Russia, trying their best to revoke the rule of law in the U.S. don't care.
It's all about power. They don't care about right. They don't care about wrong. They care about power. If it meant getting Trump out of office they would say anything, tell any lie, pass on any rumor or do whatever it took.
I think they would stop just short of whoring their kids out on the street.
But I wonder...

Why do you think this? Seems to me that the only reason to think this is true is because Donald is claiming it, but since he'd be claiming it regardless that doesn't count for much.

Most big cities have election problems, ranging from ineptitude to political machine vote thievery. Philadelphia has long been noted to have bad problems. Ask George about Chicago. New Orleans used to be pitiful, until post-Katrina. Mix in mail-in ballots, which have well-known shortcomings such as a 2-3% loss rate in the post, dead people voting, people voting multiple times, people voting who no longer live in the district, etc.
It creates a cluster flub. It undermines confidence in elections. The end game when people have no confidence in their vote, never ends well.
Some of the numbers we're seeing border on the incredulous. Districts in states with same day registration (something else I think is wrong) exceeding or having right at 100% turnout. Precincts without a Trump vote. A 6000 vote error. Precincts which defy any historical voting turnout. States in the samevregion, with vastly different turn-out rates. There are several math-based theories floating around right now, most too far over my head for me to understand.
I could go on, but in the end, it's as much about perception as reality. If a large percentage of the country thinks the election is rigged, it does nobody any good. On this last point, I have been unwavering...The franchise is sacred to the republic. Every vote cast must be legal, the voter must be positively identified and ballots must have a clear audit trail. Mail-in voting causes problems in any election, anywhere it is used, so get rid of it, except in extreme circumstances. We could allow early voting, but do it in person, with the normal security measures in place. Have observers at every polling station and never let ballots be transported or counted without observers.
Trump is a disrupter. He shakes things up. It's what the Deplorables elected him to do. His greatest legacy may be the scrutiny and reformation of a seriously flawed voting system.

The problem is the websites you follow show rumors and apparent irregularities but don’t present the information when they are debunked or fully explained.
Take for instance the two examples you give - the 6k error in that MI county has been identified as user input problem which has nothing to do with the functioning of the software and the WI apparent turnout anomaly was a combination of bad data and a lack of knowledge about how WI works.

That's the same reason it is considered false.

And you constantly follow the NYT, which is a steaming pile of calculated Left Wing bullshit. But I will give them kudos for it admitting it.
