As his supporters celebrate their victory and prepare to take office after all votes are counted, fair to say that our democracy requires that Youngkin's victory should be embraced as legitimate, particularly by McAuliffe, the Democrats, and any elected official?
Doesn't a newly elected Governor deserve the respect of the Virginia electorate, who per their voice, chose Youngkin over McAuliffe?
Or, should McAuliffe and Democrat leadership across the nation, keep repeating 1000x that the election was a sham? Should the current Virginia legislature (Democrat majority) + Democrat Governor, have sought to change their election laws, giving the Democrats final say over the vote counting?
The linchpin of our democracy requires legitimacy to the victor.

I agree with Chris, lose and concede. Virginia also has no excuse mail in voting so a Youngkin win disprove the BS that Dems cheat by that type of voting.
My buddy who lives in Virginia says McAuliffe should win if turn out is where it should be.
Which is why Trump and his 1/6-truthers are a threat to the republic. He would rather bring down the system than admit he lost. Which, by the way, is what we would expect from someone with Narcissistic Personality Disorder - but we should not expect (or forgive) it from his followers.
It's not much more complicated than that.
