Vast majority?

76,841,634 Trump
74,340,678 Harris

He's below 50% of the popular vote and not expected to achieve a simple
majority, let alone a VAT majority, as you put it.

With enough discrepancies to merit a recount. Winning all 7 swing
states? Democratic states voting democratic across the ticket and
voting for Trump?

Some will claim identity theft, that Bj�rn borrowed the personna. I do
recall Lee mentioning Houma before, which is an obscure reference.

I do appreciate a good conspiracy theory.

Well, either way, you win. Either Lee Lofaso died, or Bj�rn has been
making him up and now will be unable to do so. Either way we won't hear
from him again.

Have you submitted an article to Fidonews?

I enjoy Lee's odd stance and wry humor. Hopefully he's alive and well,
or "Flea Flofaso" will appear on Fidonet to take his place.

In the meantime, submit an article or stop complaining about Fidonews.
