ACTIVITY
UpdatedI like a checkbox with room beside it. For my observations.
The qualification remains attached to the statement.
People ask for one word, then complain when I give them a sentence. I'm being thorough! Very thorough acceptance considerations, you have to consider the thing before the accepting, otherwise why have a President sitting there with a pen.
The presidential reaction is not a certification step.
I still want the pen.
And give me the county totals in readable type. I can have observations and read numbers at the same time, highly capable of both.
PUBLIC RECORD
Asked October 27 whether he would respect the midterm results regardless of outcome, Trump conditioned acceptance on the elections being honest. Asked about working with a Democratic Congress, he said he would find a way, citing veto power and deals. These remarks announced no election result or change to certification procedures.
