Key word is "widespread". That is, if there was fraud, it was probably contained within a couple of key counties. No need for widespread fraud, if a couple counties will suffice.

You get no presumption of innocence here. When you purposely make fraud impossible to detect, the only reasonable assumption is that you did indeed commit fraud.

Let's be clear about this.
Georgia conducted a full audit with the assistance of an outside firm, VotingWorks, to investigate irregularities in the election. No large scale irregularities were found.
They did a hand recount as part of the audit process. They also searched for any ballots that could have been excluded from the original count. They found a few thousand ballots that were not counted by mistake. Trump gained a small number of votes as a result. There was zero evidence that machines had been flipping Biden votes to Trump votes, demonstrating that conspiracy theories about this are without merit.
The audit was overseen by Brad Raffensperger, a Republican who is Georgia's Secretary of State. From a party standpoint, he had every reason to make sure he did everything in his power to ensure that Trump was treated fairly in the election.
Georgia's thorough audit should fully debunk any of the Trump campaign's allegations about voting fraud and irregularities in Georgia. Moreover, because the Trump campaign was incorrect about allegations in Georgia, it should be a strong signal that there's almost certainly zero merit to their even more outlandish claims about fraud in other states.
It is mind-boggling that you would interpret this to mean there was fraud in a couple of counties. There is incredibly compelling evidence to the contrary, yet you won't believe it. I just don't get it.

It's going to take a long time for me to get over the rallies. Trump has thousands of supporters rallying, whether he is present or not. Biden can't hire even small crowds of 12, 18, or 24. But, he wins the election? Something smells . . .
And, those five battleground states that all stopped counting simultaneously on election night, only to see Biden counts increase VERY SHARPLY immediately when recounting began. Yep, I smell fish!
However, as I said in my original post, if the Rs weren't bright enough to prevent any of it, well, they lose. Let's wait until the Electoral College has it's say, THEN we can talk about a President Elect.

He knows that he's leaving the White House on January 20, even if the Secret Service has to drag him out of there like a toddler throwing a temper tantrum.
These lawsuits and tweets are a distraction so you don't pay attention to the dangerous policies being enacted and moves being made in the final days of the Trump administration. If we're all talking about Trump lying about the election, we're not talking about the damaging economic, public health, foreign relations, and public health actions that this administration is making. This is the most corrupt administration in the history of the United States. Trump is the worst president in the history of the nation, worse than Andrew Johnson, James Buchanan, and Warren Harding. George W. Bush was not a good president but he had enough respect for the office and the country to run a first rate transition at the end of his presidency and to defer to the incoming Obama administration about policy.

Keep in mind the effects of their different approaches to the coronavirus... We're looking at one guy who exhorted his followers to rally together in large numbers in-person, and another guy who intentionally limits the size of his rallies while telling his followers to stay home to avoid spreading a virus; it doesn't seem logical to me to draw any conclusions about their popularity based on the size of the resulting crowds.
They actually didn't stop counting; one county had to pause briefly because a pipe burst, others stopped when they finished counting in-person votes but were still counting the incoming absentee ballots:
https://www.politifact.com/factchecks/2020/nov/04/facebook-posts/battleground-states-did-not-stop-counting-votes-el/ [politifact.com]
Biden's votes would have increased at a faster pace when absentee/mail-in ballots were counted because a larger proportion of mail-in voters tend to be Democrat, and also because Trump had been actively telling his followers to vote-in person rather than mail.
That's going to be interesting; I assume that we'll see the same reaction from it as in 2016, where the electors simply stated that it was their duty to vote in accordance with their state's residents. Hopefully that won't happen; it wouldn't surprise me if we saw ANTIFA riots from Hell there if the electors decided to override the voters.

Here in Canada, I can't ever remember any rallies for any politician, I mean we're talking about low life politicians, a necessary evil it seems. It also seems that many people don't vote for someone but rather against someone and it is really easy to believe a lot of people would vote against someone who is likely to go down in the history books as the worst President ever. How many Americans have died on his watch? Has he shown any signs of caring?
