In reply to the discussion: Recount: Dem wins Wisconsin Senate recall [View all]usaf-vet
(6,178 posts)27. Concede WHEN? Ok here is a thought.
I'm tired of DEMS conceding prematurely in federal, state and even local elections. In Wisconsin, Barrett / Walker would be my last example.
So here is our new rule for concession. We will not concede 1 minute, 1 hour or 1 day sooner that the last republican conceded. So in a state race Wanggaard would set the standard. So if it take 30 days, 40 days, 50 days whatever.
Give notice now in the next state race WE WILL NOT CONCEDE FOR the number of "Wanggaard days".
So every new republican hold out would reset the standard. FUCK-em let them bitch, whine, threaten, sue whatever FUCK-em.

We never seem to get off the ground running. Largely because they will block every move.
