12. I sent a similar email to friends and family
and told them to read the links before I would engage them in debate. My father told me to "get over it" too, and I replied that I had nothing to discuss with him until he read the studies and reports. We haven't talked since.

A Republican friend of his did engage me. He finally did read the statistical studies and on-the-ground reports of fraud. He finally AGREED that we should hand recount Ohio and other questionable states, as long as taxpayers didn't have to foot the bill. While I might quibble with him on that, I was pleased that a hard-core Republican who read the studies did not want to win fraudulently, and wanted to find out the TRUTH.

Everyone: keep emailing your friends and family, with links to the best evidence. This is the best way to get the story out given the virtual MSM blackout.
