LifeZette has asked various sources around the country for their views on the current election mess. Here is what they told us. Anonymity was given when requested.

Kim Kilbourne in Ohio, “I’m in a state of numbness over this election. To see the numbers of Trump supporters vs Biden supporters it is mind boggling that we are even in this situation. Ohio does voting right, they start counting mail in’s 20 days before election day so we are not doing this late counting. I have no doubt President Trump won this election, I cannot imagine that the people are satisfied with the ticket the Democrats are offering. I call foul…”

Shelly Mateer, Editor, Opslens, “It is very hard to believe that Biden actually legitimately received more of the vote. If, indeed he did win all of these votes, is is baffling to me that people would want the entire U.S. to be turned into failed states like California, where they cannot even keep the power on and are dictating what people can do for Thanksgiving inside their own personal property. But then again, I never expected Americans to embrace wearing masks and allowing their personal freedoms to be ripped from them and their children so willingly.

Niko in Maryland, “Though, at time of writing, the networks have all but called the race for Biden, the presidency will not be earned through a tainted vote. As this case winds through the court, the next few days will be crucial. The question for every republican is: ‘Which Republican officeholder will stand with Trump, and which will be primaried out.’ ”

Jennifer in Michigan, “As a Michigander, and watching the numbers closely all night on Election Day, I am appalled (yet not surprised) by what is happening in my state. I saw Saginaw County switch miraculously blue on November 4th, LONG after the county had been counted. Besides the Presidential and Senate races, I also saw key Congressional races switch in the same manner. There is no way a valid recount can be had due to the verified/recorded corruption at Cobo Hall. In my opinion, it would take an actual Re-VOTE with VALID ID and possibly federal intervention for the true result. Michigan is being stolen from the President, John James, and several Republicans who were leading in FLIPPED congressional districts before the ‘magical’ votes appeared.”

A mother of four sons in New York — “What is going on in our country right now is a travesty. We are seeing Democrat Joe Biden and his henchmen try to grab the election away from President Donald Trump using every lever, and every liberal-leaning entity they can, to do so. Trump, in so many ways, strengthened our country over these last four years, and these Dems, with ‘Joe and Kamala’ as mere figureheads, may now try to undo his good work. I am praying to God for our democracy, for peace, and for all conservative Republicans to protect our nation to the best of their ability over these next four years.”

Lisa Pendleton, former political operative, in Pennsylvania, “As a Pennsylvanian, I am thoroughly disgusted with the election process. I simply do not trust that our votes in the state are cast and counted legally and truthfully. Refusing to allow monitors inside the Philadelphia Convention Center to observe the count, covering up windows so observers have no access, intimidation of voters, accusations by postal workers of coercion, exactly what makes the Governor and Attorney General think I should trust them? If there’s no corruption, if there’s nothing to hide, allow a full recount to take place. End, once and for all, the notion that Pennsylvania’s election process is corrupt. Failure to do so means they are hiding something.”

Stacy Shea, South Carolina GOP political operative, “For the past four years the presidents political opponents, including some in the Republican Party, have been trying to overthrow his presidency and the will of the American people. If the left thinks that Trump’s supporters are going to just accept the results of a clearly fraudulent election, they’ve got another thing coming. Our resolve is steeled. In the worst case scenario that Biden becomes president, which I’m not convinced will be the outcome no matter what the media says, Trump is not going away. Neither are we.
