If the outcome of the entire elected hinges on a couple thousand votes in one crucial state, then either side would most likely contest the results at the slightest suggestion of irregularity, regardless of who wins. To ask candidates if they would absolutely accept the results was a dumb question to begin with. To refresh your memory, look back at who refused the outcome of 2000. It was the Gore camp. Both sides are prone to this.
OK....I will put it this way .....what happens if EITHER candidate (since you seem to be so testy over Trump) starts lawsuits and ties up the ratification....Obama stay in office? I can't find any legal precedent ..... |

Since the President and the Vice President are not allowed to serve past their second term as per the Constitution it would fall to Congress as per the XX Amendment to determine who shall act as President until the elected President can be qualified. Most likely the new speaker of the house since they take their oath on the third of jan. |

That's nowhere near what happened in 2000. The election outcome was not decided as all the ballots had not been counted. Yes, the democrats wanted all votes counted. The republicans did not.
It went to the supreme court and the the tie vote was broken by W's daddy's appointee. Talk about cooked and rigged?
And btw, Gore won the election. he won the popular vote and would have won the electoral college if all of Florida's votes had been counted.
So, "both sides" are not prone to this. It's only the GOP that rigs elections. They don't even want everyone registered now. If they could it would only be white males over age 40 and upper income that could vote. |

Obama would still leave office on Jan 20, 2017. Normal protocal would determine who is the acting president until the election is certified. |

She knows she recused herself. I have this vision of Hillary being hauled off in handcuffs after her inaugural address. Better yet, I have this vision of her giving her concession speech on Tuesday.....with the FBI waiting behind her, arms folded, handcuffs in hand. Tuesday would be good......
The house is the only body that can impeach. The senate then decides whether or not the impeachment is justified.
An impeachment is akin to an indictment. The senate is then the jury. |

| As I was watching Fox news EARLY this morning a reporter made reference to a specific file folder labeled "life insurance" on Weiners computer. The reference was only made once. I kept watching to see if they said it again. Interesting title. Since we're dealing with the Clinton's, you can't help but wonder if Huma Abedin was saving them to protect herself or if Weiner was to blackmail them later on should he need to? |

As usual you are wrong Gore never asked for a total recount he only asked for the under count. Gore did not win the popular vote in Fl. and that was the only thing that counts to get the elector votes for that state. Winning the popular vote nation wide has zero to do with the elector votes never has and never will unless you change the constitution. As to you comment as to ONLY the GOP rig's elections you might try reading a little history or do you like most Dem's forget about when Daily rigged the 1960 election hence giving JFK the state of ILL. |

I'm sure I will regret this but I have to ask.
Why should people with no skin in the game be allowed to vote?

No, Poindexter, that's not how winners of the Presidrntial election are determined in this country. Yes, to be precise, Gore won the popular vote. No, he lost the electoral college vote, and the election.
Democrats want to do everything to enable felons to vote in Virginia. Democrats want voting rights for illegal aliens in California.
Democrats oppose voter ID laws, under the guise of "discrimination".
Also, Mr Yellow Dog, you can knock off the racist remarks about "whites". Yes, that is racist. |

I heard this comment the other day in an interview with a Democrat: "I'll vote for Hillary no matter what she's done short of murder."
Hey Democrat keep up......there are skeletons in her closet.

You can't order anyone to speak. Only a judge can hold you in contempt if you refuse to speak to the court after you have been ordered to do so. This case hasn't gone that far yet. |

Location: Bastrop, Texas | Look for Clinton counter attacks in the next 24-48 hours. They are going to try baiting him with more bimbo accusations for sure. Also, I wouldn't be surprised if Trumps tax returns turn up somehow. This is crunch time and voting is ongoing.
Clinton, Inc will counterattack. |
