    Ensuring close elections are accurately called is understandable

    They weren’t doing that, they lied to you about Bush winning.

      I perhaps did not separate my points well.

      Point one is challenging the results in a very close elections is acceptable and even important because it ensures the accuracy of the results. I take no issue with anyone, of either party, doing so in earnest.

      Point two is that SCOTUS stopped the legitimate recount of the close results on Florida but it wasn’t because Gore/the recount was unreasonable.

      What I see with these Republicans in contested races is simply to ignore the results and stubbornly refuse to accept results, often even after recounts.
