What about evidence?
I realize that it would have been unreasonable for Congress to overturn the election today. I wasn't expecting that.

But what I WAS expecting was more evidence. I thought maybe the Dems were in waiting, ready to spring lots of evidence of vote fraud in Ohio.

Instead, I heard lots of mention of "standing in line in the rain for hours." Not very convincing - as we realize that Repub voters stood in the same lines.

I heard the name Cuyahoga a few times. I also heard Dems mention (about twice) a county "where there were more votes than voters" - but that county was never named.

I would have used my five minutes to list evidence of vote fraud - instead of calling for electoral reform.

Think of the viewers who might not have heard about any of this yet. You talk about electoral reform - and the viewers don't know why. You list cases of vote fraud - and people will pay attention.

That's what I would have used this historic forum for.
