I have seen different polls on this subject, but the bottom line is that a lot of Republican voters still believe that the 2020 election results were based on fraud. Now of course if I were a Republican, the fact that my guy lost and the other guy won would be reason enough for me to tell a pollster that the election shouldn’t count.

It’s kind of like asking voters whether they believe that they are paying too much in taxes. What person would answer that question with a ‘no?’

The problem with all this attention to the so-called vote ‘fraud’ is that I don’t recall this question being asked in previous years, and for all I know, the losing voters in every election would say that the results were ‘fixed.’

When I lived in New York City, I spent more than a few afternoons at the flats, which means Aqueduct and Belmont Racetracks. I never went to the track in Yonkers because those were trotters, not thoroughbreds, and everyone knew that the trots were ‘fixed.’

How did we know that? We knew it the same way that people know that elections are ‘fixed.’ You don’t cash in your daily double ticket for big bucks? The race was fixed.

Which brings up an interesting question about the election on November 8th which is this: If I am a Republican and I believe that the election result will again…
