That’s a rather charged accusation.

We now know the real reason the Democrats win elections. According to [Jesse Watters](https://us.yahoo.com/news/women-marry-settle-down-stop-005849281.html), it’s single women.

> Single women need to get married and “settle down” so they stop voting for Democrats, Fox News host Jesse Watters unbelievably urged on national TV Thursday.
> 
> “Single women and voters under 40 have been ‘captured’ by Democrats,” Watters complained in the wake of the GOP’s disappointing midterm elections.
> 
> “We need these ladies to get married. It’s time to fall in love and just settle down. Guys, go put a ring on it,” he urged.

More Republican stupidity quoted in the link.

I notice he has a solution for the single women voters, but what’s his plan for those under 40?

I 've had other things on my mind the past few days and haven’t been following all of the election news. Has there been a lot of Republicans who lost claiming that their elections were stolen by those evil perfidious(?) Democrats?

Some of them were in close contests, and the Arizona governor’s race still hasn’t been called. Don’t want to call an election fraudulent while there’s still a chance you might win.

Ummm, no. Lake has been demanding SOMETHING be done about the stolen election since long be for votes started being counted.

The Fat Orange Baboon isn’t bothering demanding recounts, he just wants everything done over.

Jamie Herrera Beutler, Republican from the third District of Washington, voted to impeach. She was primaried, and lost the primary to Joe Kent. Kent lost the general election to Democrat Marie Gluesenkamp-Perez. Beutler had held the seat since 2010.

They’re marching around the building blowing shofars and calling for the fall of the walls of Jericho. They also are demanding that the military intercede and that a new election be held.
