Will Hillary Accept Defeat?
The media’s focus has been on whether Trump would accept the results if he loses. Yet a better question might be whether Hillary Clinton would accept her defeat.
Even when it came to the battle for the Democratic nomination, Hillary Clinton refused to concede defeat until the bitter end and then past it. Not only did Hillary refuse to drop out even when Obama was the clear winner, while her people threatened a convention floor fight, but she insisted on staying on in the race for increasingly bizarre and even downright disturbing reasons. In South Dakota, Hillary explained that there was no reason for her to drop out because somebody might shoot Barack Obama, "We all remember Bobby Kennedy was assassinated in June in California." There’s something disturbing in the revelation that Hillary was basing her decision to stay in the race in the hope that her rival would be assassinated. Sultan Knish:

Your Say
If ol' Hil doesn't win right away, you can be sure she won't "accept the results" and will continue to demand chads be counted, machines be rechecked, car trunks be emptied, back rooms be scoured for ballot boxes, etc., until *finally* she wins.
Those glass ceilings don't break themselves, y'know.

What if it's all fake?
A media fabrication entirely.
Trump is mopping the floor with that criminal ass, but the media is in overdrive from both directions to portray things 180 degrees different from reality.
There are very few Criminal/Kaine signs anywhere.
My wife and I did a 2 hour Sunday Drive today and did not see even one. Plenty of Trump/Pence signs, even 4'x8' ones in peoples front yards.
The most I can say about Criminal/Kaine is that google news is running anti-Trump articles constantly at the top of the list every dam day all day long.
The media has nothing good to say about Criminal/Kaine so they spend their efforts lying about everything Trump.
Even in the comments sections of the major news sites that haven't done away with that stuff, all the pro-Criminal posters have nothing good to say about her and spend all their efforts trying to downplay Trump, and acting like whiney children, just like purchased slaves.
The only way Criminal/Kaine is going to win is by massive criminality from a plethora of directions simultaneously. It's all or nothing and it's going on right now.
Ya know, the 1st amendment is not about lying.
Lying, in a legal context, is fraud and fraud isn't condoned in the 1st.
I have read numerous Trump articles by you know who that are total fabrication with very little to no substance. Allegations and unnamed sources. No truth.
This stuff is meant to do one thing, fraud the readers. Fraud is a crime.
If I claim falsehoods about someone I can be brought up on charges of slander, libel, etc., and it shouldn't matter if my target is a so called public figure. Words matter and the damage from them can be gargantuan, and the perpetrators should be held accountable for their behavior.
The 1st amendment doesn't give anyone the right to damage others.
After taking office Trump should commence setting all of this right whatever it takes.

I thought this time it would be ballots; next time possibly bullets. Perhaps I am wrong. This time may start with ballots and end with bullets.
To have come this far, the Communists are not going to take any loss lightly. All that gained ground swept away by a non-establishment group who isn't going to play the game will not sit well. With a Trump win of 3% or a bit more, the GOPe won't be able to say no to what he wants; it will be like Reagan's win.
