Call up the FBI again.

TALLAHASSEE — Amid a dizzying whir of legal action, questions over uncounted ballots and the failure of two South Florida counties to meet the deadline, a machine recount produced little change in the overall results to three statewide races Thursday.
Even so, the U.S. Senate and agriculture commissioner races are headed to manual recounts, results of which are due to the state by noon on Sunday. Certification of the official election results is scheduled for 9 a.m. Tuesday.
In the governor’s race, the recount showed that Democrat Andrew Gillum trailed Republican Ron DeSantis by 33,683 votes, a net gain of 1 vote for Gillum from the unofficial results reported last week. The margin was 0.41 percent out of more than 8 million votes cast, outside the 0.25 percent threshold needed for a manual recount.
Although the lead appears insurmountable, Gillum would not concede and called for counting to continue. He stopped short, however, of filing a lawsuit to demand that.

votes are racist
I wonder who is footing the Bill.
George Soros you out here?
Call up the FBI again.
Maybe somebody needs to tap him on the shoulder and tell him that a concession is just a formality and him conceding or not won’t actually stop the results from being certified and DeSantis from taking office.
If America is going all banana republic we should give him a consolation prize, a free helicopter ride.
He’s as queer as a football bat. Open secret in Tallahassee.
Steyer sunk close to $3 million for Gillum’s campaign...and Gillum initially conceded the race then he demanded a recount...so one of his out of state backer is telling him what to say or do...
Gillum is a Soros Steyer motuh-piece
GILLUM: "Man with Obama campaigning for me, I'm gonna slaughter De Santis."
There’s always an encounter with one of those economy-sized Burmese pythons they’ve got running round down there...
You just don’t understand etiquette like Gillum does.
Someone’s supposed to at least give him a “participation” award.
I was planning to avoid the corrupt election state but I guess my February vacation will be back on now.
Hillary Clinton 2016
"Hillary Clinton calls Trump a 'threat to democracy' during NC rally"

And at a different rally, she says essentially the same thing.
"That is a direct threat to our democracy. "
He doesn’t have to concede.
His not accepting the results of the election does not mean he’s still in the running or he deserves the office.
Declare the winner and move on and let him deal with it.
It’s GOOD that the country is seeing this.
Even if it only changes a few Independent votes.
I know if I was on the fence I would be nauseated by this.
And fearful of the almost maniacal desire for power.
WOW one whole vote..hope it was worth it for Jew hating Gillum..if he doesn’t concede who cares..he can cry about it for the rest of his pitiful life he LOST
Once the machine recount is certified, doesn’t matter what Gillum says or thinks...concessions are just hot air by politicians
Andrew Gillum's wiki page shows he's married with 2 children. Hmmm...
Florida state law provides for automatic recounts when the margin of victory for a given office or measure is equal to or less than 0.5 percent of the total votes cast for that office or measure. If the margin of victory is equal to or less than 0.25 percent, a hand recount is ordered (automatic tabulators are otherwise used). The relevant state statutes do not appear to provide for candidate-initiated or voter-initiated recounts. For more information about recount procedures in Florida, see Section 102.166 of the Florida Statutes.[3][4]
Concessions mean nothing if the Florida law is followed, meaning DeSantis is governor-elect.
He’s not good enough at election fraud.
