They can deny them all damn day, but the burden of proof is on their side. They've had 4 years and found zero credible evidence of widespread or a conspiracy to fix an election. Literally no evidence.
If you didn't have proof when it was happening, it's time to shut the fuck up.
That should matter but it doesn't. If there's anything I've learned from the last 8 years it's that facts don't carry that much weight, especially in American politics, and especially with Republicans. All that matters is what people believe to be true and most of the time that doesn't differ from what they wish were true.
That’s not entirely correct. Investigation has uncovered several cases of voter fraud, it was just committed by Republicans.

As is tradition.
The only evidence to overturn the election points to republicans
Right, the only people who have been caught in these investigations have been Republicans attempting to rig things for Republicans
Fucking traitors. Try that shit this time and find the fuck out.
Find out there are absolutely no repercussions because our system is broken.
Find out Biden won't hold up the nat guard like Trump did.
Pitch for the NYT:
THIS Week: Top Republicans not sure if they’ll accept election results. And Biden is so old and confused he mispronounced the name of the prime minister of Belarus. Which is worse? We asked ten voters in a diner.
9/10 agree it’s Biden.
if you can't lose by the rules, you can't win by the rules : you just can't play.
This is the best summary I could come up with:
Less than six months out from the presidential contest, leading Republicans, including several of Donald J. Trump’s potential running mates, have refused to commit to accepting the results of the election, signaling that the party may again challenge the outcome if its candidate loses.
In a series of recent interviews, Republican officials and candidates have dodged the question, responded with nonanswers or offered clear falsehoods rather than commit to a notion that was once so uncontroversial that it was rarely discussed before an election.
The evasive answers show how the former president’s refusal to concede his defeat after the 2020 election has ruptured a tenet of American democracy — that candidates are bound by the outcome.
Mr. Donalds, a Florida Republican on Mr. Trump’s list of potential running mates, said in an interview on Friday that he would accept the results of the 2024 election if he thought the contest was fair.
“As long as localities actually follow election laws passed by the legislature, yeah,” Mr. Donalds said, adding that he believed that had not been the case in 2020, when he took a leading role in Congress during the attempt to overturn the presidential contest.
Other Republican candidates hoping to be Mr. Trump’s vice-presidential pick, including Mr. Donalds, have expressed similar sentiments about whether they would certify an election they saw as problematic, but the question is likely moot.

Supporting democratic institutions is too woke and very RINO.
They know they’ll be exiled, primary’d and face violent retribution if they believe otherwise.
