Over the weekend, both Florida gubernatorial candidate Andrew Gillum and Sen. Bill Nelson conceded their races (Gillum for the second time), and in Georgia, gubernatorial candidate Stacey Abrams admitted that Bill Kemp won, although she didn’t concede “because the erosion of our democracy is not right,” insisting that “the state failed its voters” and “democracy failed Georgia.”
Funny then, that CNN — the cable news network that promises “Facts First” — would suggest that the true story of the election wasn’t who won or lost.
The true story of this election may have very little to do with the politicians who won or lost. It may have much more to do with the damage this process did to the democratic system https://t.co/CY4YXNVTwf

Is what Stacey Abrams doing a threat to our democracy?

Now do Georgia you partisan hacks.

I agree Stacy Abrams really hurt the system.

People, people … it turns out CNN’s piece focuses only on Florida.
If it took a full 13 days after the election to certify the winners, it’s pretty clear where the problem lay: with the clowns running the show in Palm Beach and Broward counties. And guess what — the Democrats lost anyway.
Except this article would not have been written if democrats had won.

Agreed. Democrats are the worst. Always attacking the system and undermining elections with zero evidence. #sorelosers

The recount in Broward County that had Republicans with more votes was turned in “two minutes late” … I’m supposed to trust the next count?

Buried lede: Democrats can win Florida if only they’d let felons vote.

Agreed, Democrats need to stop trying to steal elections

Elections damage democracy. @CNN logic.

The candidate with the most votes won, despite the left’s attempts to rig the elections. Only #FakeNews sees this as “damage”.

Yes the #DemocratVoteFraud was strategic & very scary. Their collusion in disenfranchising the votes of many American citizens can never be accurately tallied but it was astounding. Hopefully a national #VoterID will be instated & tighter controls on absentee ballots implemented.

Well, let's hope the Democrats stop causing harm to the democratic process.

What ever happened in the peaceful transfer of power. Only if they win it seems.
