That newspapers all over the country have already got their front pages ready with invented numbers to show that Ms. Harris won the election by X number of votes? How would that be possible without an infinite number of leaks? You think the newspapers don't have reporters and many of them are Republicans or Libertarians or?? There would be massive records, emails, phone calls, conferences, etc. to co-ordinate such a venture, and there wouldn't be leaks like s sieve? Look how well Republicans can keep secrets! They are no better than anyone else. The only way to keep a secret is to TELL NO ONE! This has been known since humans first told stories. You are a useful idiot for someone because you just don't understand human nature. John
