and it comes out favorable to Hillary - do you really think that this election can be turned around?

It's too late. If there should have been a call to contest this election it should have come the night of the election and Hillary shouldn't have conceded.

We're deluding ourselves to think that at this late stage in the game that this election would be overturned.

We're talking a major revolt if that would happen. We'd be entering unthreaded waters here and we'd be unleashing something we might regret.
