It's interesting that the world considers the Ukraine elections to be suspicious and not up to democratic standards because the official count of votes showed a different "winner" than did the exit polls.
Hmmm.
Republicans want us to believe that in recent U.S. elections, people who left the polls having voted for Republicans lied and told the exit pollsters that they voted for Democrats.
Well, there are a lot of us who don't buy that and who believe that, for the past four years, U.S. elections have not been democratic, and there's no reason to believe they will be in the future.
It's not just in the Ukraine that it isn't who votes that matters, but who counts the votes.
