Convenient fraud

Since Cathy McMorris Rodgers was quick to sign on to the Texas attorney general’s effort to subvert the will of America’s voters and overturn the presidential election, I am confident she will be just as eager to support my proposal to throw out the result of her own congressional race and have Dave Wilson declared the rightful winner.

Sure, Joe Biden beat Donald Trump by more than 7 million votes and earned 306 electoral college votes to Trump’s 202. But McMorris Rodgers and others of her party are claiming fraud – but only in states won by Biden and without offering up any actual evidence.

Following that fine Republican logic, it is clear to me that the only possible explanation for Wilson’s loss to McMorris Rodgers is massive voter fraud everywhere but a handful of precincts in the far-flung 5th congressional district. Therefore, I say we should accept only those votes cast by the fine and patriotic citizens in Precincts 3200-3223 in central Spokane. By this count, Wilson wins in a landslide.

I for one will be happy to have a Democrat once again serving Eastern Washington in the U.S. House of Representatives.
