fighting for voters no matter what Trump, his campaign, or his allies say
on Election Night! >>
PFAW Member,
Axios reported this week that President Trump has told confidants he's
ready to declare victory on Tuesday night with vote counts still in
progress across battleground states like Pennsylvania…
“Trump's team is preparing to falsely claim that mail-in ballots counted
after Nov. 3 — a legitimate count expected to favor Democrats — are
evidence of election fraud.”
Insiders close to the president have said Trump has privately described
his plan “to walk up to a podium on election night and declare he has
won.”
You know and I know, that’s not how this works. Trump doesn’t get to
choose when the election is over, especially if there are votes still
being counted.
[ [link removed] ]Add your name: Tell Joe Biden to stand firm against phony declarations,
and potential reports from right-wing media, of a Trump victory >>
The New York Times reports today that Trump’s public efforts to set the
stage for outrage and disbelief among his supporters if he loses are being
encouraged by yes men on his staff who are assuring him that he has the
Electoral College in the bag.
It’s all nonsense. The Biden-Harris campaign has every reason to feel
confident today and, while he could still win, the idea that Trump has
anything locked up is hogwash.
That’s why, no matter what Trump says tonight, Joe Biden must not concede
until all the votes are counted and the actual, legitimate results of the
presidential election are in.
[ [link removed] ]Add your name now to call on Joe Biden to ignore Republican
declarations of victory and stay in the fight until all the votes are
counted >>
Thank you for everything. Let’s fight with everything we have until it’s
done (and won)!
