We all know the drill. If you questioned the 2020 election results, you were (and still are) labeled an “election denier” by Democrats. Yet, the same Democrats who criticize such skepticism often refuse to accept election outcomes when Republicans win. Currently, Sen. Bob Casey (D-Pa.) is refusing to concede after losing on Election Day, and is indeed trying to steal the election. You don't have to take my word for it; even the liberal media sees it.
"Before the Nov. 5 election, Pennsylvania’s Supreme Court ruled that provisional ballots must be signed in two required places and that mail-in votes must be dated," the Washington Post editorial board wrote. "Yet elected Democratic officials in Philadelphia and three other counties — Bucks, Centre and Montgomery — voted this week to defy these and other court decisions at the request of lawyers for Democratic Sen. Bob Casey, who trails GOP challenger Dave McCormick by about 24,000 votes, with almost all of the roughly 7 million ballots cast having been counted."
They recognize that these Democrats’ actions are likely to be overturned on appeal, and point out the very act of defying judicial rulings undermines democracy and sets a dangerous precedent for future elections.
The race has been called for McCormick by multiple outlets. The Associated Press called the race two days after the election, and Decision Desk HQ, waiting for more votes to be counted, acknowledged that Casey had no path to victory and called it last week. Casey has not only refused to concede, but has notorious election fixer Marc Elias doing everything he can to steal the election.

Last week in Bucks County, the commissioners board voted 2-1 to disregard the advice of its legal counsel and defy a Pennsylvania Supreme Court ruling on ballot counting. Democrat commissioners Robert Harvie Jr. and Diane Marseglia approved counting 124 improperly signed ballots despite knowing their actions violated the law. Their decision was a deliberate act of defiance.
“I think we all know that precedent by a court doesn’t matter anymore in this country, and people violate laws anytime they want,” Marseglia said. “So for me, if I violate this law, it’s because I want a court to pay attention to it.”
The Washington Post editorial board noted that "Democrats would surely protest if a Republican commissioner made the same statement to justify tipping the scales for their party’s Senate nominee — and they would be right."
Elections need rules, established in advance of the voting, and those rules must be applied equally and consistently. Pennsylvania’s Supreme Court, by the way, includes five justices elected in partisan elections as Democrats and just two elected as Republicans. Even if that partisan balance were reversed, however, the court’s authority would be equally legitimate.
That said, even the Washington Post concedes that "Mr. Casey has almost certainly lost this race" and that his deficit "still appears insurmountable." But a state recount is unlikely to change the results, but what is happening now is not typical recount stuff; this is a statewide effort to find votes for Casey and overturn the will of the people.
When a left-wing paper is willing to call out such blatant efforts to steal an election by subverting the law, that tells you just how bad things really are, and it's pathetic to see Casey's Senate career end in such a shameful way.
