Donald Trump Calls For 'New Election' In Arizona As Democrat Lead Holds

Donald Trump

Donald Trump, clearly having been told Democrat Kyrsten Sinema has pulled ahead of Republican Martha McSally in the still-undetermined U.S. Senate race in Arizona, took to Twitter to rant about non-existent 'electoral corruption.'

Just out — in Arizona, SIGNATURES DON’T MATCH. Electoral corruption - Call for a new Election? We must protect our Democracy!

Tuesday night it appeared McSally would be the victor, but as early votes are now being counted along with absentee votes, Sinema has taken a lead of over 8,000.

An average of final polls going into the election showed Sinema with a slight lead.

"But it is interesting — it always seems to go the way of the Democrats," Trump said today. "Now, in Arizona, all of a sudden, out of the wilderness, they find a lot of votes. And she's — the other candidate — is just winning by a hair."

Try telling that to Al Gore.

Republicans in Arizona are trying to stop having the votes counted there saying, in part, that if signatures on someone's voting history don't match, the vote shouldn't count.

Of course, there are lots of reasons why signatures may not match: illness, age, being in hurry. My signature certainly doesn't match my voter registration card from when I signed up 14 years ago here in Nevada.

There were plenty of responses on Twitter, but here's the only one you really need to see.
