I'm telling ya....AZ to Trump tomorrow, and GA to Biden on Friday....and then, buckle-up Weekend!!!!
Trump's lead in GA down to 28k with 100k votes left to be counted (mostly from strong Democratic areas). That could be super close.
posted by ts1227Didn't the SCOTUS rule against shit like this?The next EC fun comes if everything holds as is now and you end up 270-268 Biden (which seems somewhat likely).
One faithless elector can send it to the House to decide, which would give it to Trump since it is voted on by state delegations, which he would have the majority.
This country will go off the damn rails
Also, are any of you all really shocked that allowing people to vote 6 weeks prior to the election is creating distrust? At the very least, every state should have handled it like Florida. They got their shit in very quickly. These late data dumps in tight races are not helpful at all.
Overall, this was the worst case scenario for our country and here we are. Even if it's plainly obvious the votes are legitimate, Trump won't go down without a fight. Especially after 4 years of trying to deligitimatize his 2016 win.

Only Fox News and the AP ever called Arizona. Everyone else has had it too close to call all along

Even if Arizona and Georgia flip from what they are trending now, Biden still wins. He actually wins by a bigger margin.
Personally, I think Pennsylvania will flip to Biden and everything else stays as is.
@Wildcats, ahh I didn't know that, thanks for the heads up! But my point was that it was happening, there's another one or two that I saw from another place but I didn't even bother looking that up. I just wanted the people who didn't know about it to see it.
@Ironman - wow wtf

Not fully. Their ruling said laws that states have to bind electors by removing or punishing them are constitutional, but there’s still like 20 states or something that don’t bind their electors

He seems nice.
So, there were more votes in this area than registered voters. How much will this slow down the process? Lawsuit coming? Will it be ignored?
Today can we know who the president supposedly is going to be or is that still too much to ask.

The problem, imo, is not allowing states to count the votes until Election Day vs right away.
Right on cue

Are we really moving the goalposts from Republicans will riot when Trump loses to Republicans are not rioting now because they have never been marginalized.

Adam Kinzinger (GOP in IL, just south of this) already said it’s not true and made up story that people ran with.

He keeps saying they have no history of rioting over and over.. just pointing out they really have never had a reason to riot

IMO It'll either be 279-259 for Drumpf, or 290-248 for Namenda Joe. 55/45 chance it's the latter.
Pubs hold the Senate 51-49.
Not saying I should have my own cable news show, but I should probably have my own cable news show lol.

No one rioting now has a reason to be doing it either.

That can only mean Milwaukee turnout was 160% of its registered voters.
You guys see Georgia finding more vote in Blue area not where they “forgot” to hit upload
