Mark Levin: 'McAuliffe Is Preparing To Try And Steal The Election'
As we all know, Republicans simply do not lose elections. But if they do, it was stolen from them.
By Susie Madrak


Right-wing nutjob Mark Levin is pushing his party line that Terry McAuliffe is going to steal the Virginia gubernatorial election. Because as we now know, Republicans are never going to lose another election, no sir! They will shout and bully their way into winning, no matter what! Via Media Matters:

MARK LEVIN (HOST): And I will tell you now that Terry McAuliffe is preparing to try and steal the election. McAuliffe spends big in final days on sanctioned lawyer who sued to overturn Iowa House race.

[...] This is very important to understand. So they're going to try and steal the election. The same guy, McAuliffe, who said that Bush was illegitimate in the 2000 election because he stole it from Gore, the same guy, McAuliffe, in 2016 that said actually Hillary won, remember was the bagman for the Clintons. And Trump had lost, stole the election, Russia collusion.


Now, of course, if you dare to raise questions about 2020, "Oh, you must be a Na-- a white supremacist," but of course.

Marc Elias, of course, is the Democracy Docket election lawyer who has successfully fought back attempts by dozens of states to suppress voters. No wonder they hate him! Here's his latest win in Virginia:

Polling shows McAuliffe winning, so the "He cheated!" squawk has to be activated early.

This accusation has been swirling around for at least 10 days. Anything to keep the rage-fest going, anything to delegitimize the electoral process.

I suspect this had something to do with the early voting %'s that started slow for Dems (or so it was reported) to spiking to a 55%-30% advantage as of yesterday. In any case, this 'they're stealing the election' is now, I fear, the new normal.

It works regardless of the outcome.

If Republicans win, they'll pat themselves on the back and talk about their 'heroic,' on-going efforts to keep elections clean. If they lose, they will insist the evidence of fraud and vote stealing were there from the start. Because from their perspective and endless propaganda, they are the majority. Everywhere.

Wrecking democracy is a feature, not a bug in this strategy.

..nut job; worse than Trump. Endure a few minutes of his radio show some time. It's not even what you'd call conservative radio. Just a tirade of election fraud, Marxism, 1st Amendment, anti-democracy ranting.

The GOPers must realize McAuliffe is likely to win to be spewing these nonsense conspiracy stolen election claims now.

That elections will be a lose-lose situation for McAuliffe. It doesn't matter if he wins or lose the VA election, we're guarantee to see more insanity from the GOP.

It does matter quite a lot when McAuliffe wins. I think he will win and it will be a joyous day!

The GOP is crazy, big-time. This will go on. We must figure out ways to control or ignore it.
