A history lesson.
https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/2000_United_States_presidential_election_recount_in_Florida
Basically, the news networks were all over the map that night, and made several calls before retracting them all.
Gore actually conceded to Bush after the first call but then retracted his concession when the networks retracted the call.
Some points of distinction can be drawn:
—What we DIDN’T see Gore do was try to spin a completely opposite narrative to that of the media. He insisted on a FAIR AND ACCURATE final count but did not make wide-ranging claims of voter fraud without evidence.
—ALSO TAKE NOTE that the margin in Florida in 2000 was way, way, way closer even than the closest state in 2020, which is Georgia.
—ALSO TAKE NOTE that the outcome in FL was the sole state that would have decided the election in 2000. Whereas Biden in 2020 won the Electoral College by several states.
—Finally: Trump still hasn’t conceded. What I expect we may never see is a concession from Trump; luckily, it’s not constitutionally necessary for him to do so, but it is yet another norm of democracy that he’s breaking. And he’s encouraging his diehard fans to not accept reality.
