Where are the recounts?

Exit polls in Illinois and Missouri don't add up

I'm sick of these Establishment talking points of "sore losers." Where is the integrity of the vote and our importance as voters to be accurately counted.

All we hear is "a sweep" yet when we have a chance to possibly bring cheating to light we hesitate. How in the world do we change this corrupt voting system if we don't confront it head-on?

only a ONE IN 976 probability that this was due to chance alone and not due to dirty tricks.

always go in Hillary's favor.

I heard on the local Kansas City news that they are still counting votes and absentee ballots in MO but that NBC had called it for Hillary.

We should be able to get these #'s ourselves by having volunteers all over the counting process

McHenry County has 89 precincts out. Seems like shenanigans to me. I remember in elections past that some precincts were always late and could change the results if the establishment desired.
