ELECTION 2020 Part 11

Link to part 10, again (ignore the link above):

[quote]I'm exhausted

You look it OP.

Eggshaushted.

50k ballots to count in GA. Joe down only 13k. This may happen.

So PA will be announced by the end of the day? Maybe?

R4 and get Perdue under 50%... it's still possible that Biden get over 300 EC votes and the Senate could be split 50/50 with Harris controlling it for Dems.

There's a place for us, somewhere a place for us, hold my hand and we're halfway there....

JFC, can GA just finish him off!

R7 Yeah, fuck FL which is and has been Alabama adjacent. Georgia is purple now. The New South.

Hi GEORGIA!

I feel like we may JUST miss Georgia, which will only highlight why Dems have to vote every single time. No exceptions!

I think Dems win GA. I think the Fulton County official who spoke an hour ago hinted at it.

R11 I want GA, PA & NV!

R6 are you sure that's accurate though?

At 50-50, Dems would have 48 members plus 2 members that caucus with them that do not identify as Democrats. Rethugs would have 50. Doesn't that mean because they have 50 actual members, Rethugs would still be the majority party?

When this is over, I never want to see Steve Korfuckingnaki ever again.

Sanders and King bring the Dem Senate caucus to 50 if both Georgia seats go to the Dems. Kamala is the tie vote in that scenario, making the Dems the majority in the senate.

As mentioned in another thread, if Biden offered something to Pat Toomey and Richard Burr to get them out of the senate, it would help. Both are republican senators in purple states with a Democratic governor that will appoint their replacements, and both announced they are not running again in 2022.

R13 The independents caucus with the Dems (Bernie is one of them, duh). There is no "rule" that says you must be a registered party member, it's whom you vote for and with.

Is there a Georgia press conference at 3 today? This was posted in thread 10.

R17, yes.

Overall, Biden did well. People are being negative and doing the most because the polls had way too high expectations for Democrats.

Send benzos.

R18, sorry to be a pest but has this been posted in the news or is it inside info? I haven’t seen anything online.

Share.

Guardian is saying there are 876,000 votes still uncounted in PA is it really that many? I thought I read on a Twitter link in the other thread that it was more like 570,000. Any guidance?

AP currently has Joe behind in GA by 13,000. Not sure when it was updated. How many left to count in GA?

[quote] Send benzos.

Is he delivered via Amazon?

R24, that was when there were 50k more votes to be counted.

R24 guardian also says Joe behind by 13,000 and lists approx 50k votes remaining to be counted so he would need 64% of those to win.

Yes. News conference at 3. just on MSNBC

Just mentioned. They don't have an exclusive ;]

All high profile Trump supporters have vanished or very muted since the election day. Very interesting.

I found this Twitter thread on Allegheny County mail-in ballots helpful.

[quote]Here I am going to try to address some confusion about why Allegheny County is not going to begin counting 30,000+ ballots until tomorrow. People are going bonkers about this, or castigating hard-working employees on no sleep, and it is wrong. (thread) - Chris Potter

Even these threads are dying it’s taking so long

3min till GA annouces the final count!!!!!!

Can Biden just claim Nevada and Georgia and Arizona and Pennsylvania now?

Hereby and forsooth!

The PA secretary of state said earlier this afternoon there were about 550k ballots to count r23. I'd assume they would know since that is their job.

Are we sure it’s the final count, r33?

R34, he isn't Donny.

[quote]Spanberger on the Dem caucus call: We lost races we shouldn’t have lost. Defund police almost cost me my race bc of an attack ad. Don’t say socialism ever again. Need to get back to basics. (Is yelling.)

MSNBC still holding on nervously about Arizona.

Meanwhile AP, Fox and Politico called it for Biden a long time ago.

Nevada said the only instance of voter fraud they could find was a Trump supporter who tried to vote twice. LOL.

I want John King to penetrate my Magic Wall.

Gurl I can't take the suspense!

If Fox and AP call GA, they're going to have to call the election. They're the only ones who've called AZ, and without AZ, Biden would only get to 269 with GA.

Dorothy would be furious by now.

I think we're going to know by the end of the day

This made me laugh:

[quote]Do you like being irrelevant now, Ohio?

“I think I found some Republican ballots here”.

R43 The part that I'm nervous about the AZ call is this is their first time using their exit poll model in a presidential election. I know they interviewed the Fox decision desk head yesterday, but I'd like to know if he's still as confident right now.

Bill Hemmer said they may need to make an adjustment re: Arizona. Man, he's finally starting to show his age. I'm worried Biden may barely miss taking PA by about 1000 votes.

r47 will never stop being gross

The Propaganda Minister tweets from Poosietown.

ugh enough with the concern trolling r49

And what is the adjustment? Because Trump called the Governor and said fix this?

If Democrats were stealing votes, we'd have flipped the Senate by now.

No final result from GA today!!!!! FUCK!

We will see how the composition of absentee ballots holds, but right now Biden is on pace to win PA by about 170k once counting is done r49.

I'm not saying I expect that margin to be exact but I am saying it is hard to conceive how that can change to a Trump victory. I would breathe a little.

GA says they will not release final count until every "legal" ballot is counted and they are waiting for them until tomorrow.

R55 That is a good sign for Biden, though more waiting IS annoying of course.

But just a little?

R56, where did you find that 170K figure?

Can you imagine what the REAL results are? They’ve thrown everything at trying to steal this, that’s why it’s so damn close. I don’t buy for one fucking second that Dump picked up MORE votes now than in 2016. No way!!

47K votes left to count in GA. In mostly Blue counties.

Alaska and North Carolina must be feeling slighted.

[quote] I want John King to penetrate my Magic Wall

I don’t find him attractive at all.

There was a hottie on Wednesday morning with Cuomo doing King’s schtick who was much more fun to watch.

47k ballots still uncounted for ALL MAIL and all from heavy DEm counties+some military base votes.

As well they should r63.

R65, in GA.

Biden's lead in Bucks County, PA 2.1% (versus Clinton 0.8% in 2016)

He is outperforming in areas from 2016, which is why so many pollsters are claiming his ultimate lead could be 100,000+

Did people know John King was married to Dana Bash and they made a baby called King Bash?

I feel like this thing is being produced by a reality show team. All we need now is for Julie Chen to say, “news out of GA, but first...”

So GA just confirmed that there would be runoff elections for both Senate seats, right? That's huge.

GA Election official just inadvertently confirmed that OSSOFF GOES INTO RUN OFF! YES!!!!

How did Dana Bash get two hottie husbands? She's no beauty.

She’s good at mouth stuff R73

She has a Magic Wall of her own

Also of note in GA is that Chatham County is at 87% vs almost the rest of the state at 95%+ votes counted. The split in Chatham is 60/40 for Biden.

This goes to 11?

Math r60. Just taking the amount of ballots that supposedly left by the percent Biden they've been so far. Its rough, but it tells you IF things continued the same in the count what you would expect. A point of reference.

♪ The waiii-aiiiting is the hardest part ♪♫

R51, you sent me into the sewer and I read one tweet that can’t be ignored… we may be stuck with this court because of the Senate outcome.

Corona who?

Think our sphincters are clenched this week? Wait until the days leading up to and including December 14.

R81 Biden and Harris today attending a briefing on experts about COVID. The governing starts.

So basically no results until tomorrow, right? Have the remaining states all said they won't report anything new until tomorrow?

The 221st anniversary of George Washington's death, R82?

Speak for yourself r82.

My sphincter is nice and relaxed.

Yes, r82, because King Donald will *absolutely* try to get electors to switch their votes - using outright bribery, most likely. Which is about 10 kinds of illegal, but that's never stopped him before!

I wonder what impact the GA runoff(s?) are having on the GOP reaction to Trump's bullshit. I wonder if they'd be more supportive of him if they weren't facing elections in January, instead they're being cautious as they don't want to risk turning voters off?

R84, only PA suggested that they MAY do it tonight.

R88, I think Abrams could energise again Black voters for Warnock and that will drag Ossoff along with him.

From the Dem caucus call, pure comedy at the end:

[quote]If we run this race again we will get fucking torn apart again in 2022, Spanberger says

[quote]Pelosi comes back on and says she disagrees, they won the House and presidency

[quote]We have a mandate! Pelosi says before getting off the call

[quote]Also earlier in the call Debbie Mucarsel-Powell who lost her race was crying , and mentioned how people can’t pronounce her name, and said stop being negative on Twitter

[quote]Jeffries comes back on to tell people to stop leaking and that reporters aren’t your friends! 😢

King George must be laughing his ass off in the afterlife.

Arizona announces new results at 9 pm EST

Don't think the silliness isn't being noticed.

The Guardian @guardian 1h

Count the votes or stop the count? Trump supporters have been trying to pressure election officials to stop counting ballots in states like Pennsylvania and Michigan, while making the opposite demands in Arizona.

Trump and Pence getting ready to address the nation.

[quote]Sheri McClatchy — Mississippi election commissioner — rolls up on a black woman and gets her ass beat

^ as if Trump would ever be having fun with kids like that.

PA could be called tonight

GA secretary of state:

[quote]With counting continuing in numerous counties throughout #Georgia, as of 2:40 p.m. today there are approximately 47,277 ballots still outstanding.#SecureTheVote

R100 And Guardian commentary on that:

[quote]As of now, Donald Trump’s lead stands at 12,835 votes, so Joe Biden would have to win about 64% of the remaining ballots to flip the state. That is still possible because many of the remaining ballots were cast in Democratic-leaning counties, but it will be a very close final result regardless.

[quote]Defense Secretary Mark Esper has prepared a letter of resignation, according to three current defense officials.

[quote]It's not uncommon for Cabinet secretaries to prepare undated letters of resignation during a presidential transition, giving the commander in chief the chance to replace them for a second term. The president decides whether to accept the resignation letters, and the process usually occurs after the election results are clear.

[quote]But defense officials say Esper prepared his letter because he is one of the Cabinet officials long expected to be pushed out after the election.

[quote]As his tenure may be coming to an end, Esper is helping members of Congress draft legislation that will strip names of Confederate leaders from military bases in a move that could put him further at odds with President Donald Trump.

[quote]The HOA presidential election remains undecided. Tempers have flared. But I am still cool and calm. Meanwhile the future of our neighborhood under the "leadership" of Darlene Van der Pooten remains in the balance. - Myrna Tellingheusen

I'm not going to try and put this in quotes - from Garrett Archer on Twitter:

AZ ballots left. All counties are official estimates. Today's tabulations removed

Apache: 1,5k

Cochise: 5,4k

Coconino: 13k

Gila: 370

Graham: 80

Greenlee: 6

La Paz: 880

Maricopa: 275k

Mohave: 6.5k

Navajo: 4.4k

Pima: 40k

Pinal: 41k

Santa Cruz: 1.3k

Yavapai: 8.4k

Yuma: 8.4k

Arizona: ~407K

The aftermath of the beatdown at R96

Damn it's so close in GA

Wait ... Arizona is removing votes?

R105 good, that bitch deserved it.

[quote] Biden's lead in Bucks County, PA 2.1% (versus Clinton 0.8% in 2016)

That Bucks yard sign troll is now nowhere to be found, naturally.

Those are votes yet to be counted R106 minus what has been tabulated so far.

R106 Although beating Trump in GA is delicious, longer term getting Perdue into a runoff, provides an opportunity to win both Senate seats.

Winning both Senate seats would deliver the Senate. Getting rid of Mitch as Majority Leader... being able to appoint committee chairs. Perhaps even getting some movement on court reform. It's huge. It'd be so much more important to get these two Senate seats than to have Biden win GA.

It did not seem, on Tuesday, that the election results could get this good.

And if Stacy Abrams gets this done, she may run for Gov in 2022, but she should run for President sometime. It's unprecedented what she's done in GA.

Some snark aimed at Nate Silver, which I'm sure we all love to see:

[quote]So Nate Silver is the pied piper of democrat voters. But then who is the Republican equivalent? Don’t tell me OANN. Need somebody who uses a bunch of data to justify their partisanship

[quote]Maybe that’s what I should do for next cycle. Start a service that aggregates polling results, then adds a layer of my own “analysis” to arrive at “probability” indicators that make republicans feel good about their chances

[quote]Tell people there’s a 90% probability the Republican candidate will prevail. Then a day or two before the election be like “of course there could be polling errors and the exact opposite could happen”

[quote]Then during and after the election go on twitter to sprout a bunch of nonsensical stuff that claims I was right all along

[quote]Of course not forgetting to blame people for misunderstanding. I’m telling you: this idea is a winner

He's missing the part where, despite him being utterly wrong, he still has the gall to accuse others of being wrong - like the AP call for AZ

Those Georgia run offs are vital.

R111 Oh man, imagine if Mitch thinks he's home and dry only to lose it all in January. Oh that'd be SO delicious.

Nathaniel E. Baker belongs in the Big Dick Face Awards thread

Me waiting for Nevada's results

R112, Silver wasn't wrong. Stop quoting Republicans who are falsely accusing others of being partisan

That's hilarious, R103, and that's actually going on right now, I think.

R116, have some water and a snack. No sense to starve yourself.

r116 Might be time to stop following the Karen Carpenter Diet.

By those Georgia calcs listed above, 47,277 remaining with Joe behind by 12,764 (guardian) versus earlier numbers when Joe was 18,500 votes behind when there were 61,367 votes remaining, if the numbers continue at those exact rates of the votes in between then Joe would win by 6,482 votes. That’s it my maths isn’t totally off lol. Maths buffs pls feel free to correct me.

I agree about Stacy. This will be her win if it happens. And if it doesn’t happen, it will still be a Huge accomplishment. I live in Georgia and poll watched for the party. I also voted for her and I’m an old white guy.

Chatham, btw, is Savannah. You would think that Biden would do better than 60%. But there’s a lot of old money there, so yeah

Has corrupt Louis DeJoy gone into hiding?

R122 Utterly hilarious given the hatred that was being thrown her way by the usual racists on the election night threads.

[quote]Chatham, btw, is Savannah. You would think that Biden would do better than 60%. But there’s a lot of old money there, so yeah

Not to mention Paula Deen.

Betsy deVos and Ben Carson will nor want to leave the Cabinet.

Ben Carson will be too distracted chasing after his luggage.

Too bad, Ben and Bets!

I know there is lots of time between now and the run-offs in January but serious question -- what are our chances of winning both seats, do we think?

I only half paid attention to those campaigns -- I saw the clip of Ossoff obliterating Perdue of course, and I know Loeffler is a thieving garbage POS, but sometimes if the district is shitty enough that kind of thing just doesn't matter. I mean didn't a dead guy just get reelected by Republicans?

I suppose Bill Barr is not going out and arrest Trump's political opponents.

R116, i know it’s stressful these days but remember you’re a gay man and we don’t do extra weight.

[quote]Joe Biden is expected to deliver a short statement at the Queen Theater in Wilmington, Delaware, in a few minutes.

[quote]The Democratic nominee delivered a statement yesterday, urging patience with the vote count and projecting confidence about the ultimate result.

[quote]Donald Trump has not been seen on camera since the early hours of Wednesday morning, when he falsely alleged “fraud” in the presidential election and declared victory without the results to back that up.

If the Senate runoffs happen, imagine the amount of money that is going to be thrown their way!

Now this man talks like a president.

Joe already on the job, yassss bitch 👏🏽

Joe speaking. Confident he will win.

[quote]but sometimes if the district is shitty enough that kind of thing just doesn't matter. I mean didn't a dead guy just get reelected by Republicans?

There are no "districts;" these are both statewide races.

I know everyone's obsessed with the Presidential race (rightfully so) but I've moved my attention to the equally important Senate races. It looks like two runoffs in GA - great news! Is the NC race all done, or can Cunningham still mathematically squeak it out over Tillis - I haven't seen any analysis of the math, or what type of outstanding ballots (mail-in, etc) are left in that race.

Would someone mind sharing what Joe's saying? I'm avoiding media.

He's just talking about making sure every vote is counted, and that they feel positive about where things stand. He is asking for patience with the process. Sounds and looks VERY presidential. Such a change!

R129, I am not a Georgian, but I would think if Warnock would help push Ossoff to a win and vice versa. Especially with Stacy Abrams in the background. What she has been able to do means Dems should win in GA for cycles to come.

This is priceless. You will laugh.

Ugh! Who has had enough of Rick Santorum on CNN?

Still trolling for Trump. And a hangdog look when they talk about the likelihood of the Biden presidency.

A Jew and a Black in Georgia? Why not just call it the "Driving Miss Daisy" ticket?

R138, not sure, but Cunningham is currently down about 100,000 votes with 93% reporting.

Any updates on the GA Senator race? AP still has Perdue at 50%

I suppose Nestor is proud of his fellow Cuban Americans for voting for Trump. Daddy Gayetz has mixed emotions, given that Trump is losing.

Like many DLers, R144 things it's still 1963

Thanks, R140, but isn't that a big mistake on Joe's part? Hasn't Murica shown him they don't want Presidential? They want someone to claim victory now and to shout that if anyone has a problem with it he will drink their tears!!!!

Runoff chances -- Warnock has a good chance

Ossoff one is going to be expensive and bloody -- and a question mark (for me at least).

r145 AP shows Perdue at 49.978.

Trump's lead in PA is down now to 97K

This is probably true in many states... I guess, but there really seems to be 2 different PAs.

R150 do you have a link to what you're looking at?

I'm viewing the AP results on the Google page and it doesn't seem updated to reflect that, thanks.

R150 and that number has nowhere to go but down...

R142, Oh dear god! I am totally lost, so now it's Democrats who stopped the vote???? What in the name......

Twitter vid.

R153, Most other counters round up this kind of small margin. But GA election officials just earlier confirmed that the run off will happen.

r153 Yes, it's on the LA Times website (they're using AP's data.) Not sure if it's paywalled, though.

R142 Man, Emily must have had to use all her restraint to not call her an idiot.

r152 It might help if we had some idea of what you're referring to or responding to. Either use a quote or refer back to the post number.

R143: Remember how we made the word "santorum" trend on Google back in the pre-Twitter days?

[quote]If the Senate runoffs happen, imagine the amount of money that is going to be thrown their way!

I haven't spent a dime this election season, but I'll sure as hell contribute for this.

R160, I think that person was just making a general statement that there are two very different people living in PA. But I think that's true of all states.

I think there was a reason for Joe to come out and make that little speech. What was he trying to ward off?

I think the Ossoff race is actually potentially easier. He really found perdue’s soft underbelly with the corruption stuff in the debate. Perdue is on the run. I think An Ossoff win is quite doable though I don’t think I’ll be a walk in the park.

Thanks, R158.

Wht tf has this election dragged on for days? Announce the winner already turds! Praying for biden.

Longer vid.

Dave Wasserman on PA:

It does appear Biden is on track to take the lead soon in Erie Co., the ultimate PA bellwether.

R15. Ooh I like it. Joe can be all reaching across the aisle but gets the senate. What secretary of energy or housing. Those cabinet seats run self because trump appointments were morons.

Wasn't that Dan Savage who did that, R161? He doesn't seem to have fans here....

Why is Sheri McClatchy wearing Steve Kornacki's pants at R96? Do they share a closet?

R117 "Silver wasn't wrong"

Hi, Nate.

R122 and any other posters in Georgia: what can those of us not living in your area do as a means for EVERYTHING possible to support Ossof and Warnock to the finish line? (Besides financial support?)

They have a huge possibility to assist Biden in the next two years via a Senate that is not corrupted by MoscowMitch.

I mean, Jeez, who would have ever thought it would come down to this: TWO Georgia Senate runoffs?

Thinking of you all in Georgia from afar....

Interesting that W was somehow taken seriously when he wanted to arbitrarily stop the count. I wonder what the difference was?

R173, Steve, you're also not in the steam room...

but soon enough.

Couldn’t he come back wearing grey or blue pants. Or is that Steve’s uniform

I refuse to worry any longer. As Joe said the process is working.

Come through, GA!

Does the Senate run off with Warnock look good though? Considering that he was up against two Republicans who together got 46% of the vote?

Money made very little difference in the SC and Maine senate races. We need to focus on a stellar GOTV operation instead. That's what will make the difference in a special election.

[quote][R122] and any other posters in Georgia: what can those of us not living in your area do as a means for EVERYTHING possible to support Ossof and Warnock to the finish line? (Besides financial support?)

You could support Ossoff by learning how to spell his name correctly. (Seriously--I've seen it spelled "Ossof" at least a hundred times here.)

R181, apparently not all voters choose to vote in down ballot races. Awful, but true. So run off will be a different election game.

Bwahaha, Eric Trump tweets:

[quote]Where is the GOP?! Our voters will never forget...

[quote] You could support Ossoff by learning how to spell his name correctly. (Seriously--I've seen it spelled "Ossof" at least a hundred times here.)

Noted.

Anything else? Am very serious.

The least Trump could have done was to adopt his kids rather than procreate.

Trump Nevada campaign looking for people to claim they had problems voting

[quote]After Laxalt-Grenell-Schlapp evidence-free charges, Trump campaign acting like bottom-feeding lawyers looking for clients. Reprehensible. I've covered politics for 35 yrs, love game as much as anyone. What these people are doing to sow distrust of the system is beyond the pale.

I’m hoping tonight we’ll finally hear the words:

President-elect Joe Biden and Vice President-elect Kamala Harris

R185, the rats fled the sinking ship. NYT reports that Kushner is in charge of Trump's legal defence now as nobody wants the job.

[quote]Trump campaign is worried about a Fox News Pennsylvania call tonight

Go on, Fox, be the first to call PA as well as AZ!

Yeah, I think R185 answers my question about W. It was the GOP backing W that mattered. Trump seems to be on his own.

Tonight?

Are we expecting any of the states to update tonight? I thought most of them said tomorrow at the earliest?

I hesitate to post this and lure the G*p Pl*ylist Troll to this thread, but someone did an investigative report on Steve Kornacki's pants yesterday (sorry, can't remember where I read it) and they're from The G*p. The color is "palomino brown."

[quote]NYT reports that Kushner is in charge of Trump's legal defence now as nobody wants the job.

I hope he handles it as well as he's done with all of his other assignments.

PA has said they were going to try to finish tonight r193. But at the rate they are updating that's hard for me to believe.

[quote]The color is "palomino brown."

So is that his subtle way of hinting that he's hung like a horse?

R185, it’s begun. Dump will form a third party. This is the first shot across the Republican bow.

Actually, hah, not sure that would happen, but it’s a lovely thought!

The loyal dogs are starting to show up

Every single thing must be done to secure the GA runoffs. EVERY SINGLE THING. Every Democrat who can vote, MUST vote! We will give you anything you want Georgians.

Trump’s lead down to 90k in PA

Nikki Hayley also showed up a few minutes after Don jr’s tweets. That cunt

[Quote] We will give you anything you want Georgians.

A sweep at the Oscars?

I'm in Chatham County, Georgia (Savannah) and the comment above expressing surprise that we only went 60%/Biden - I'm actually surprised it was that high. Riding around in the past few weeks, Trump signs are EVERYWHERE. There was a sign on a highway leading into the next county that says "Only God and Trump can save our country" which just blows my mind. Yes we have a sizable African American population in the city of Savannah but all the other towns in Chatham County are overwhelmingly Republican.

On Sundays I play the piano and a buddy of mine from the local symphony that plays the violin plays with me in a church (little side job to make some extra $$$). He and I play the music then we walk out during the sermon and go to Starbucks then come back to play the final song. We were waiting to go back in this past Sunday and he pointed to some flyers in the foyer that were a "voter's guide" that was so obviously endorsing Republicans and vilifying Democrats. He was like, how can they get away with this shit? I absolutely believe churches should have their tax exempt status revoked.

R206 I said anything!!! ANY THING

[quote] You could support Ossoff by learning how to spell his name correctly. (Seriously--I've seen it spelled "Ossof" at least a hundred times here.)

And yet, you’re still alive! How great your suffering must be. Plucky you.

I've never understood why people gauge signs and stickers as an indicator of how a town is going to vote. I've probably seen 10 Orange stickers to every 1 Biden sticker where I am and knew no matter what the majority of people were voting Dem.

Actually those response tweets from Haley and Cotton are shady as hell. Not a single mention of the vote counting or stopping.

Trump's lead in GA is 9500

Fox News has abandoned him.

Look at the headline and the lede

R212, it's going to be 500-100 vote difference in Biden's favour , me think.

R182, SC is a hard red state - it's easier for Dems to win in GA which is trending bluer

Rumblings of PA being called tonight. This thing could be over. Fox is already entering the “I don’t know her” phase with Trump.

What's the likelihood that Trump demands money from the GOP to campaign in the GA runoffs?

R213 will enragé him. Watch the a Twitter feed... it’s gonna be awesome.

Also look at the photo Fox chose for R213-- Biden looks heroic, Trump looks about ten shades more orange than usual

Here comes Kevin Sorbo with the dumbest take:

So many of the GOP are probably ecstatic to get rid of him. They truly hated his attitude and behavior, despite all the pretending to support him.

R212 with how many votes remaining?!?!?!?!

Trump margin in GA is 9,525

The Bucks County sign guy (gal?) is one of my favorite DL characters. My grandparents lived there and cancelled each other’s vote out.

That chick from Mississippi watched "The Help" one too many times

R212 Amazing!

r214, I approximated Biden would take GA by 700 votes. It is going to be tiiiiight.

I do wish we would see the final results. I am still stress eating half priced halloween candy.

[quote] So many of the GOP are probably ecstatic to get rid of him. They truly hated his attitude and behavior, despite all the pretending to support him.

These scumbags did his bidding for 4 years. Now that they realize he’s virtually persona non grata, NOW they want to distance themselves? Fuck off!

(Not the poster whom I quoted, the rethugs.)

Biden is going to win Nevada, Arizona, Pennsylvania, Georgia and possibly N. Carolina.

He didn't need the tards in Floriduh or the redneck haters in Ohio.

Dave Wasserman on PA:

Breaking: as expected, Biden just took the lead in Lehigh Co. (Allentown) by 4k votes (2.8%) and his lead there is poised to climb much higher w/ subsequent batches.

Jared's in charge? LOL. He only got into law school because of daddy's bribes and didn't take the bar because he was too dumb to pass it

R176, W's brother Jeb was governor of Florida. It's that simple.

I agree that a lot of the GOP are really hoping he’ll lose. They’ve already used him for all he’s worth.

I'd rather see Steve without his pants.

Why don’t the US press treat liars like that lady did upthread? I mean, the “lame stream media” is supposed to hate dump, right? Why no balls to hit back?

R235 it's great!

What exactly are Dotard's crotch fruit trying to say Rethugs should be doing for them? Openly cheat?

They're not the brightest are they... then again, they're much brighter than their cultists.

Steve needs to press those pants.

Don’t lose sight of the fact that GA is run by the very corrupt Brian Kemp. If it comes down to a few hundred votes, expect some shenanigans.

Is Kamala with Joe in Delaware?

BREAKING: Jim Rutenberg, in New York 7m ago

The Trump campaign filed suit in federal court seeking to stop the counting in Philadelphia, arguing that its observers were denied proper access. A hearing was set for 5:30 p.m.

R239, don't give him any ideas. He' might try to wear them in the steam room.

Presidential spiritual advisor Paula White conjures up a Trump win through sheer force of her belief (and with the help of a cat (white, of course)...

African Americans got rid of Trump. Detroit, Milwaukee, Minneapolis, Atlanta, Philadelphia... He tried to start a race war and it failed.

Why would they file in federal court?

Georgia is very close but not much left. At least the other senate seat is in a runoff now.

Let's go Arizona and Nevada. Well we might get PA first.

Nevada:

[quote]After this morning’s vote tally update, approximately 190,150 ballots statewide remain to be counted. Of this total, 123,554 are ballots that were either returned by mail or dropped of in person at a ballot drop-off location. The remaining 66,596 are ballots that were cast in person at a polling place, either during early voting or on Election Day, by voters who took advantage of Nevada’s new same-day voter registration law. Of the total ballots remaining to be counted, 90 percent are in Clark County.

R241 Yes she is. She was standing off to the side for his speeches this evening and yesterday. Maroon pant suit yesterday, black one today. I bet she's saving blue for the victory speech.

Just to follow up on what I posted at R213 -- Jonathan Swan just tweeted this:

"Hard to overstate how angry Trump's advisers are at Fox right now. Just incandescent."

I did some rough math on GA. ~ 50,000 votes not counted. Trump currently leads by ~ 10,000 votes.

Pence has been really quiet

Doesn't it go to show how deranged this presidency was that the 'spiritual advisor' flew under the radar. In any other administration she would have been a scandal not to mention an SNL character. Her charade last night barely cracks the 20 worst things she's done in the past 4 years.

I'm surprised that Fox has left Donald hanging like that. Donald must have pissed off someone at Fox. Not hard to imagine.

R254 the world is watching. They don’t want to be exposed for the frauds they are.

Philadelphia hates Trump.

He should have thought twice about accusing Philly of ballot counting corruption, even before the voting started.

We have spoken.............

The attempt to hold a Brooks Brothers riot style event in Detroit did not go well.

Not really R254

The Murdochs are nothing if not transactional.

Trump is over. They know it and they know he's bad for their brand long term. Old white people don't last forever and then they need to find a new audience.

I think that ship already sailed, r255.

Trump is no longer useful. It's not personal.

With latest update from GA, the Perdue 49.9/Ossoff 47.7 are now officially in run off! POP THE CHAMPAIGNE, BITCHES!!!!

I foresee a future in rap for her, r244.

I really want to hear more about Trump and Fox. He used them as state propaganda for 4 years. They let him rant and rave and lie lie lie in the last weeks of the campaign. Their hosts tried to make Hunter Biden happen. And then the relationship blows up like this? With Fox and the GOP against him, he's done.

I just hope that people don't forget who the traitors are and what they've done. They should not be allowed to slink back into their corners and not be persecuted for their crimes.

Is anyone on FB, Twitter, etc? following what Deplorables are saying? I'm avoiding pretty much everything so I'm just curious if they're having meltdowns or just staying silent.

I just turned FOX on for fun. The newscaster is going crazy about allowing the count to continue to Penn. If you want a laugh turn it on for a bit.

I'm a proud Pennsylvania resident who voted for Biden.

I'll be even prouder if Biden claims victory in Pennsylvania.

r185, Eric shut up and go back to voting democrat next year. GOP is gone.

Nate Silver on Georgia:

I think Biden does this if the number of votes is estimated properly. There's always the chance its been misestimated though (e.g. maybe some ballots that are considered outstanding are already counted).

Fox News and Fox's "personalities" have always been at war R263

Many of the news people, the behind the scenes folks, are legit news people.

TV in general is moving away from linear and over to streaming and Fox knows that they need to reach younger viewers.

Plus Trump served his purpose. There's no value to them of letting Trump rant to Tuck-Tuck about Biden. But if they let Tom Cotton or Josh Hawley do it, and then they get the nomination, there's a debt to pay.

Joe’s very calm and very presidential comments were perfect.

1. He demonstrated the new administration’s coming covid competence while undermining Trump’s claim that covid is a hoax no one would mention after the election; and,

2. He underscored the importance of not fucking around with people’s votes.

[quote] I just hope that people don't forget who the traitors are and what they've done.

Shouldn’t be difficult to spot them. If they have an R after their name, bada boom.

BREAKING: Jeremy Peters 2m ago

John James, a Republican who ran against Senator Gary Peters of Michigan in a tight contest, is refusing to concede, citing vague and unsupported claims of cheating.

R261 Thanks for the news. I'm in California and plan to send a $100of what I have remaining from Dump's COVID check to Mr. Ossoff.

You are beyond awesome PollTroll and your contributions here are so invaluable.

But Nate Silver is quickly becoming the guy who says "It might rain. Or it might night. Under the right conditions, it might even be sunny!"

R269 And here we go with Nate always covering his ass as seen in R112

Yes, R272 but we have a little problem where we're always acting like we need to go higher and forgive them and move on.

To hell with that. Make them pay for their sins.

Dave Wasserman on Georgia:

Trump's lead in GA now down to 9,525 votes. It's just going to be super-close.

R275, I was about to say the same thing. I never want to see another comment from Nate again.

Nancy Grace voted Biden/Harris in GA so please try to remember this next time you want to rip out her throat.. Gracias.

r184, I think a lot of the difference between the presidential and Congress races had to do with Republicans voting for Biden but sticking with their reps and senators and Independents making choices also about the president that was different than their other choices. Most democrats when down ballot. Maybe not all in Maine but most did.

I hear ya, r277.

Thanks for the summons, R194!

I wore those GAP KHAKIS to work yesterday in that very color!

ONLY GAP!

They talk and talk and nothing advances.

R275/Your Millennial Friend, I prefer Dave Wasserman to Nate Silver, but I just thought I'd post one comment by Nate about Georgia.

I'm going to go back to following Wasserman now.

Don’t think PA will be called tonight

I can't keep things straight. When does GA predict they will be finished counting?

🐭 Even the mice and the flys on the wall are fleeing the White House tonight as though it were the Titanic.

I agree PT with preferring Wasserman to Silver. And I actually like Nate!

If, if, Georgia goes to Dump, he'll have a very short taste of satisfaction, because Pennsylvania, Arizona, and Nevada will deliver to Biden--maybe by Friday. I believe that.

PA won't be called today.

Poll Troll, I am still totally hot for you. And under the right circumstances I swallow.

r287 According to Steve K, they are waiting on Chatham County to be announced tomorrow morning.

Nate Cohn says the NYT needle can no longer provide additional information about the remaining votes in Georgia:

Thanks r293

Can we expect Karl Rove doing a cameo on Sean Hannity demanding to see if Fox's calls in Biden's favors would be maintained or revised? That was mighty hilarious back in 2012 when Fox said that Obama was being named the winner in Ohio and 'ol Turd Blossom started going nutso.

Randi Reed is one stupid cunt.

[quote]Poll Troll, I am still totally hot for you. And under the right circumstances I swallow.

R292, thanks. That's good to know. ; )

There is something very reassuring about PollTroll. He just does his thing, but he’s reliable, enduring. He’s one of the few things I like about this place.

Why has Nevada stopped giving updates? It's only 230 there.

I like the drapes, r299.

WHAT was that about MY emails, Donald ?

Dave Wasserman on PA:

After all of Dems' fretting in the final week, there is still a possibility Biden could win Pennsylvania by a larger margin than Michigan or Wisconsin.

Nevada is just milking the attention. PA is moving 100s of thousands of votes out a day and these guys are counting under 10k a day. They want to be talked about, want you to think about Vegas and the fun you had there in the past. They mention Reno from time to time. And hey they got lakes too. Come visit, eh.

You know, in some ways it's just fitting that Trump goes out like this, kicking and screaming and everyone laughing at him, even Fox.

[And all good PollTroll, Wasserman is the best and I would not have known about him if not for you.]

Oh shit GA is close

They're at the craps tables, r300. Or maybe the buffet.

The only thing good about Nevada is that every single spa in Vegas, Reno, and Tahoe, is filled with men looking for orgies.

NV have said Saturday or Sunday. Cunts,

Also, watching the presser with the Sec of Penn I noticed they tried a 'gotcha' because 4 years ago she tweeted something anti-Trump as a private citizen. Why do they assume people cannot leave their politics (or religion) at home when they go to work.

I honestly believe that out of office for four years, no matter what his lunatic intentions about running again, he will seem increasingly like an easily mocked crazy uncle. I just have such a hard time imagining he can gain any kind of actual traction for another go round. I just don’t believe it.

So far the only instance of voter fraud in PA is a Trump supporter who tried to obtain a ballot for his dead mom. LOL.

R309 isn't it funny that they go nuts over someone saying something anti-Orange but they're fine with their people saying anti-whoever and going after them?

As of Now Biden is:

Up in AZ by 68,000

Up in NV by 12,000

Down in GA by 9,500

Down in PA by 90,000

Down in NC by 77,000

Down in AK by 54,000

Greta Thunberg gets her revenge:

It's almost unbelievable how many Trump tweets have been flagged by Twitter in the past few days.

The President of the United States.

true, r310, but how will every other Republican hopeful treat the Trump Cult? That is what is going to be so entertaining.

Remember, Rethugs are sociopaths who project.

They scream about voter fraud while they're the only ones committing it.

Secretary of States for NV, AZ & GA do not want to be the ones to push Biden over the edge. It's too close, and they're not used to the pressure of being significant. Especially GA. It's gonna be in low 1000s either way there...within recount embarrassment potential. They don't want the responsibility. They're waiting on PA to do the heavy lifting.

Nevada

R315 what I have been saying for YEARS is that it's unbelievable Twitter refuses to delete his account. Other people have had their accounts permanently banned for less shit than this monster has put out there.

That's actually a funny SNL style skit R318-- the SOS's all waiting to see who is going to go first, maybe trying to cut a deal to all release at the same time. playing a game of rock, paper scissor via Zoom to see who goes first...

How many QAnon members got elected to Congress. I read a tweet that QAnon has more GOP MoC than African Americans.🤔

R305/YMF, thanks. : ) Yes, I've been following Wasserman for the past few years and he's very reliable. I'm hoping he is right as usual about Biden being on track to win PA.

So, they are basically playing a game of chicken?

R320: Bingo. I was banned for life for telling plump “please die. stat.”. I was just hoping he’d die...not contemplating murder.

The thugs are starting to pop up. Senator toomey on cnn spreading trumps lies

This funny

Nevada has to relase the data soon, they can't hold onto it for ever.

Normalos get their accounts deleted. A political figure like Trump is a totally different thing. He's a VIP who receives social, entertainment and news media's attention. Trump generates traffic and clicks like no other.

Nothing good will come from trumps speech. They need to hurry the count up because shit is about to get bad.

Trump is speaking at 6:30.

No, Wasserman is not reliable. Like Nate Silver, he got this election cycle epically wrong. He said it would be a blowout for Biden and it wasn't. He gets one more chance from me in 4 years, but that's it.

Nate is a fraud and needs to be permanently cancelled. He's been wrong for 2 election cycles now. As the saying goes: Fool me once, shame on you; fool me twice, shame on me.

I was banned from Twitter for calling Paris sex-tape Hilton a whore. She clearly was a whore with her de tape profiteering. So yeah, Twitter can go fuck off. I hope they go under soon.

Sex tape

Steve Bannon calls for Dr. Fauci and FBI Director Wray to be beheaded "as a warning to federal bureaucrats"

IMO one thing that is interesting is that usually the news media is on a race to report the news first, and don't care if they get some details wrong, and here they seem to be super extra careful all of a sudden. Were they hoping for a Trump win to keep the reality shitshow going?

I heard from a friend who has a pretty high ranking job in NV politics that the Republican Secretary of State there doesn’t want to deal with shit from Trump and the local MAGATS by announcing within a timeline that might mean her state “gives” Biden the 270.

Supposedly, she’s doing everything possible to leave that to another state just as R318 mentioned.

Pollworkers get paid, right? I mean, are they dragging this out just to make a little extra money?

Just in: PA Sec of State says 380,000 ballots left to be counted. Could very well extend into tomorrow.

Trumps lead is now 78,000

There was actually an episode of VEEP which has exact same plot?

In the episode, Selina wins the popular vote, but still needs Nevada’s electoral votes to secure the election — prompting her to demand a recount in the state.

Selina plants protesters to either chant “count every vote” or “stop counting the votes,” depending on new information and whatever option would be more helpful to the campaign.

As it becomes clear that uncounted absentee military ballots will ultimately strip her from a win in the swing state, she switches up her strategy and orders her team to stop the recount. Here is the clip:

If Biden takes all of the remaining states except Alaska, he'll have beaten Trump by more than 100 electoral votes. IDK if that's a blowout, but it's a healthy victory.

Correction: 326,000 votes left to be counted in PA, I mistyped, sorry.

R337 fuck that shit! Afraid of what? To restore decency to America? Get rid of these cowards.

See ya Saturday, girls- we'll pick-up where we left off!

PA tightening up. It would be better for my nerves if they'd wait until every State has the full result then have a C List celeb from each State call in the result ala Eurovision. Michigan calling.....

Steve Bannon: sycophant to loose cannon.

for fuck's sake I hope R318 and R337 are wrong.

there's going to be chaos no matter what happens.

R259... fun fact. Most of the world only sees CNN for American news. They don’t even know Fox exists as a news channel. But now they are watching.

Maddow introduced Steve and assured the audience that he has many pairs of those pants and that he isn't wearing the same ones each day. That's a relief.

Harris has gone from wearing inexplicable red in the first speech to blue in the next. Thought it was odd she wore red in first one but probably symbolic of the transition to the new Dem presidency.

Trump is having a sleep today following his psychotic Adderall binge surely. He will resurface with a new level of refreshed speed psychosis.

So cowardice is part of the job description to be Sec of State in some states I see.

They don't get paid to be pussies, but maybe they do...

R345 I love it! Plus the dodgy green screen of a "famous" local landmark, and the celeb thinking they're being clever by going on and on instead of just giving the damn result

[quote] Maddow introduced Steve and assured the audience that he has many pairs of those pants and that he isn't wearing the same ones each day.

As long as Steve keeps his 6 feet of social distance, does it really matter?

R349 Doesn't Rachel always wear the same thing herself?

R332, Wasserman overestimated the size of the win for Biden & the Democrats like everyone else, but his state by state electoral map and predictions have been basically correct so far.

Eg. Wasserman's map had Biden losing Florida, but winning Nebraska -02, Arizona, Michigan, Wisconsin, Pennsylvania, and having a chance in Georgia.

I feel like time and votes are running out for Trump in PA....

Those 326,000 ballots are undeniably blue...

[quote]Correction: 326,000 votes left to be counted in PA

Then Biden isn't winning by 100k votes like we've seen predicted by Wasserman, Bob Casey and countless others. He'l end up winning by around the same margin as Wisconsin.

[post redacted because linking to dailymail.co.uk clearly indicates that the poster is either a troll or an idiot (probably both, honestly.) Our advice is that you just ignore this poster but whatever you do, don't click on any link to this putrid rag.]

R348 they also don't know about Fox Not News because several countries don't allow it to be aired there.

I imagine if all the votes have been counted Biden should have a comfortable lead and at least the House remains in control of the Democratic Party.

I believe the push for mail-in ballots, using drop-off boxes, and absentee ballots to cast your vote saved the whole world's bacon in the end. Putin helping out McConnell, Collins, DeSantis and La Senatrix was the only thing he could accomplish this time around. And they may have a difficult time to do Putin's bidding the next four years.

Steve looked a little greasy today. I would totally believe it's the same butterscotch pants and he takes naps in the back.

He is that raris avis: The Gay Aspie.

R357 those 326,000 ballots are mail in ballots. Deep blue most likely.

Nate Cohn on PA:

The pattern of Biden over-performance over Clinton in the completed PA counties tells you a lot about what you need to know about where this is heading

where is everyone?

Let's not forget that Fox News isn't allowed to call itself a news media outlet. They are just entertainment media for legal purposes.

Georgia Trump leads by under 10,000

Sorry, I looked at the last post and it said 3 hours ago and I was WTF? Now it's updated.

I just hope Biden gets other states besides Pennsylvania because if it comes down to only Pennsylvania then Trump has a chance with court cases

Santorum has an extensive record of being homophobic.

He was not re-elected as an incumbent in PA.

CNN hiring a homophobe is disgusting. They could have found a Republican talking head that wasn't so blatantly anti-gay.

Shits about to get bad after trump speaks

[quote]where is everyone?

There won't be any declarations tonight so....

R364 I think we're on primetime

[quote]This will be the president’s first public appearance since his post-election day speech, which was replete with lies and inaccuracies.

[quote]As his path to victory in the election narrows, the president has grown increasingly frustrated as he continues to baselessly allege fraud and demand that officials stop counting votes.

[quote]Earlier today, Politico reported that the leader who prematurely declared victory has “settled on a plan for him to take full advantage of his existing perch at the White House to look as presidential as possible”. As his campaign mounts legal challenges to sow doubt on the legitimacy of the election system, Trump is expected to resume travel and move forward with base-pleasing executive orders.

[quote]because if it comes down to only Pennsylvania then Trump has a chance with court cases

Utter nonsense, concern troll.

9,426 to be exact.

Chatham County needs to report, it is only at 87% (about 60/40 for Biden)

But also Clayton County has 5% more to report and it is 85/15 for Biden.

"Delivering results from Florida, the home of Disney World and the epicenter of senior citizen STD's, The Villages, I'm Emily Estefan. And the winner of this year's Presidential race and Florida's twelve electoral votes is . . .JOE BIDEN! Oh. Wait. That gun is real? Are you fucking kidding Me? Jesus Christ. The"winner" is Donald Trump. Up next, Suzanne Somers in CalifornIa!"

I fully appreciate not wanting to deal with Trump or any of his psycho surrogates, but this is getting ridiculous. Trump is still going after MI long after they called it. NV, PA, and AZ are going to get shit no matter what, so get it over with.

At this point dragging it out is only putting those poor poll workers under more stress and more threat from the QWhite Riot.

R370 he'll rile up his braindead followers to start rioting with cries of voter fraud and that he's the real winner

[quote]it's the same butterscotch pants

ARE YOU SAYING I WEAR CANDY PANTS?? THEY'RE PALOMINO BROWN, GODDAMN IT!

R375, Nate Cohn says Biden may be able to win Georgia when Chatham and Clayton come in, but that Georgia is likely headed for a recount.

[quote][R337] fuck that shit! Afraid of what? To restore decency to America? Get rid of these cowards.

Haven't you ever seen "Casino"? As DeNiro's character says, "there's a lot of 'problems' buried in a lot of holes in the desert".

Don't mess with an angry Nevada MAGAt.

I just don't want to get my hopes up until CNN calls Pennsylvania for Biden. Then we have to worry about how the SCOTUS will vote in terms of tossing out the ballots that are being set aside, and how many that includes.

Speaking of primetime: the night of the election and the next morning, these threads were teeming with trolls.

They've really dropped off since then

omg Savannah might not report the rest of theirs until tomorrow

GA is already in recount territory -- no way that either party would not pursue it.

Nate Cohn on PA:

Trump's lead in Pennsylvania down to 80k votes as Cumberland wraps up its count.

It's yet another county that finishes with a big shift toward Biden v. 2016, which goes from Trump+18 to Trump+11

[quote] where is everyone?

Donald is going to speak at 6:30. Apparently, he wants to stop the Philadelphia votes because they won't allow his goons to get too close to the counting. This should go well.

This is almost over, the fat lady is warming up and getting ready to sing. I'm satisfied at this point, as a diehard political junkie and election-watcher of decades.

This was not a 'blow-out' for Biden but when all is said and done it is a full-on mandate. Yes, it is: he is looking to win the popular vote by a larger margin than Trump did over Hilary in 2016, and with similar narrowish margins than Trump did in the final swing states back in 2016 as well. If Trump and Repubs called that election a "Mandate", then this one also deserves that term. as well.

I don't care about losing a few seats in the House. The Senate is a MUST, for this to be a full mandate with teeth. All we need is to TIE that body at 50 - Kamala will be the tiebreaker vote there. That's all that's needed folks, you don't need more. Get it done and away we GO.

[quote] Up next, Suzanne Somers in CalifornIa

Lol imagining her in the neck brace giving results from her Palm Springs home with Alan hovering over her shoulder

R332, they weren't wrong

R374, that's not concern trolling. I made a similar point on another thread. If it comes down to 1 state, the way it did in BvG in 2000, Trump just needs a pretext to get the issue before SCOTUS. But if he needs more than one state to win, even his stooges on SCOTUS won't be able to pull off a 5-4 decision that fixes the vote one way in one state but another way in another state in such a way as to give him the win.

Biden's camp doing sound check in the auditorium....Do they know something? Getting ready for victory tonight?

[quote]Donald is going to speak at 6:30.

So I should tune in around 7:15 ...

Just received an alert from WaPo saying USPS processed 150,000 ballots after election day and that the number is expected to grow.

Dave Wasserman on PA:

New: Cumberland Co. (outside Harrisburg) reports another massive suburban surge for Biden.

Biden is trailing there by 10.7 points w/ 139k ballots counted. In 2016, Clinton lost it by 17.8 points w/ 124k ballots cast.

[quote]Speaking of primetime: the night of the election and the next morning, these threads were teeming with trolls. They've really dropped off since then

They're still here, just trying to blend in but failing miserably.

Absolutely a mandate for Joe with the red to blue flips and maybe GA.

Gap Online is ALWAYS open!

Get yours TONIGHT!

[quote]Apparently, he wants to stop the Philadelphia votes because they won't allow his goons to get too close to the counting.

Attorney General Shapiro would like a word

I think the Republican meme is going to be "he's a fighter".

Any update on AZ?

Dave Wasserman on PA:

Breaking: Trump's PA lead falls under 80,000 votes as Cumberland Co. (west shore Harrisburg suburbs) counts ~21k more ballots for Biden and ~9k for Trump.

R395 which states

r397 I know of not what you speak

PA is definitely going through to tomorrow

35,000 votes in Alleghany County won't be counted until Friday.

Hope this link works:

[R142], Oh dear god! I am totally lost, so now it's Democrats who stopped the vote???? What in the name......

I loved that video at R142; the interviewer has this "bitch, please" look on her face & challenges this daft woman on her nonsensical argument; Chuck Todd would've just sat there with his mouth hanging open, nodding his head

Oh Yeah, Oh Yeah

R357, conservatively, Biden will probably end up with least a 40k advantage in PA, but a 70k - 100k range does seem likely.

Sometime in the next 4 years, someone needs to come up with some degree of election reform. It's crazy what is going on right now. Things should, at the very least, be consistent from state to state as to how absentee ballots are processed.

BTW, I started a paid subscription to this form so that I wouldn't get locked out during primetime.

More than 35,000 mail-in ballots in Allegheny County, Pa. (Pittsburgh) will not be reported today, because of state rules and court orders. Those will be 70/30 for Biden

R402

[quote]According to Maricopa county election officials, There will be one tabulation upload tonight at 7pm, there will be another tomorrow around 9 am (AZ Time).

Bring Faye Dunaway out to announce the wrong winner!

Senatrice back on Hannity. Those two............

Clayton and Fulton counties were part of John Lewis' district.

That beautiful man is still looking out for us!

R281 And that basically goes along with some rational folk who like seeing a little balance of power. e.g. Republicans who are sick of dump and voted Biden, would know the Dems would more than likely retain control of the House, so they'd support keeping the Senate Republican.

R408 Just wanted to point out that's the same interviewer who did the Prince Andrew interview.

I love your post, r387.

Our news just had a discussion about this "stop the count" chant from the Dump camp. Apparently, if the counts were stopped then Biden would win.

"Stop the vote", "Let them vote", "Stop the count", "Count every vote"...

Sheesh.

R411 there have been lots and lots and lots of attempts at real election reform. The GOP blocks most of it and enacts more and more voter suppression instead.

Biden has this.

When I lived and traveled in SE Asia FOX News was in almost every hotel I stayed in.

nice ass

Dump is about to make an announcement in front of the media for the first time since the election.

R414, 1993 Gap model, Faye Dunaway?

Anyone feel like doing a little trolling while we wait?

The Biden campaign is clearly setting up an event for tonight. Decked out stage, sound checks. They must feel something is coming

Trumps lead in PA now 1.1%

Who cares what trump says? Let his deplorables throw their tantrums. Won’t change anything.

[quote]Let's not forget that Fox News isn't allowed to call itself a news media outlet. They are just entertainment media for legal purposes.

STOP repeating this nonsense.

We’re fucking coming for you Donny

Trump leads by 75,427 in PA

49.9/48.8

If there are indeed over 300,000 MAIL IN Ballots to be counted...how can this end well for him??

Nate Cohn on PA:

Biden's going to get like 85% of the remaining absentees. Also, there are going to be *a lot* of *very* Democratic provisional ballots. We're very lucky that we're not going to have to wait for them, in all likelihood

R403 Thanks for the news about Cumberland County, PA. My ballot and my parents are in there and it’s reassuring to hear word that they are actually being included. I’m put off by the image from Wasserman, is screen shot from some horror movie?

In Europe they get Sky News another Murdoch which frames everything in a way that demonizes the left.

Didn't some whistleblower tell us recently that Trump and Sons mock the GOP in private? How can they be surprised that the GOP are jumping into lifeboats like rich women on the Titanic.

R434 so tonight?

It’s not. He isn’t going to win PA. Wasserman thinks Biden will win it by over 2 points. Networks need to start thinking about calling it

R437 Biden campaign setting up in the auditorium so I think there's a good chance

R436 Not true, the UK has broadcast impartiality laws. Sky News in Australia is like Fox News, but not Sky News UK, and besides Comcast now owns Sky.

R435, Wasserman used to have a better photo for his avatar. But he changed it to a photo of him participating in a podcast before the election.

R407, that’s infuriating.

R389, Trump did not win the popular vote over Hillary. She received 65,853,514 votes to his 62,984,828.

Oh, wow. The Murdochs appear to be filing for a divorce from the Trump shitshow

Our capitalist overlords will do perfectly fine under a nice safe centrist Biden-Harris administration. They have no further need of Trump.

Emily Jones (Georgia reporter):

Chatham County, GA now expects to post its roughly 15K outstanding absentee ballots tonight.

Of the already-posted ballots, 73% picked Biden.

Biden might really win GA!

R436, Sky News is a UK channel and it's not Murdoch. It's actually quite good and it's legally not possible for it to be biased, it would not be granted a licence.

Fox wants to go on offense against a Biden Harris Administration. Even they're exhausted.

Sky is owned by Comcast.

That's why it's on Peacock and other NBC properties.

If Biden wins Georgia we need to send Stacy Abrams flowers.

R446 so Biden will need just about 65% of those votes to go his way.

Fox News also just hinted that GA is a goner for Trump.

I wonder which state is they are going to call tonight, PA or GA? Since clearly something is going to happen soon.

r444 There is nothing on this earth I love more than a Republican circular firing squad.

Nate Cohn on PA:

With Trump's lead under 80k votes, we're now at the point where the Philadelphia absentees alone will close basically all of the rest of the gap and potentially all of it, depending on exactly how many are left to be counted

Dump did a stupid thing by screaming at Rupert R444.

Payback begins. They're cutting his loose.

Seems like Biden might win PA with 200,000 vote lead?

The problem is that PA will close the gap w/o AZ, but GA will not. So Fox and AP would have to call the election if they call PA, unless they retract AZ. That leaves the other networks in an awkward position and requires Fox and AP to go out on a limb.

As of Now Biden is:

Up in AZ by 65,000

Up in NV by 11,500

Down in GA by 9,500

Down in PA by 75,000

Down in NC by 77,000

Down in AK by 54,500

More votes in from Philadelphia, Trump lead down to about 75K.

So what Trump is going to say now:

On Fox News, presidential counselor Kellyanne Conway said Donald Trump is expected to talk about the “the state of the race from his perspective”.

Trump is also planning to speak about what he calls “suppression polls” which showed Biden leading in key swing states ahead of election day. Those polls made his supporters feel like his candidacy was a lost cause, the president has argued. The idea is entirely nonsensical – to the extent that polls have any effect on voter behavior, they tend to do the opposite – leaving supporters of the leading candidate feeling complacent, and motivating the supporters of the trailing candidate to show up and vote.

I love how John King continually drops hints in his cool, detached way that DJT is just batshit. The rest of the gang over there don’t even try to hide their outrage (which is fun too, I guess). Well except for Wolf who’s just kind of an idiot.

Sorry -- I had that backwards ... I mean if they call GA before PA.

10 mins ago, Trump was supposed to go before the cameras to spew.

Have they all had enough and tackled him to the floor?

Poll Troll, these threads have moved so fast, I haven't had a moment to compliment your hair: It looks fabulous!

Diaper shitting fat fuck Dump about to make major announcement. Hopefully for the last time. Press waiting.

Maybe some live diaper shitting and screaming?

According to the Vote PA website, Philadelphia still had 85,000 to report.

Joe has this.

I won't feel like *not puking* until he crosses the line, but he has this.

Trump has already put more effort into stopping the vote counts than he did in stopping the virus.

The polling conspiracy he got from twitter and its pathetic.

R468 Brilliant

There are many throats and PollTroll only has one dick. Chill, y'all.

[quote]And that basically goes along with some rational folk who like seeing a little balance of power. e.g. Republicans who are sick of dump and voted Biden, would know the Dems would more than likely retain control of the House, so they'd support keeping the Senate Republican.

This is a recipe for gridlock.

So FOX NEWS now using Nate Silver's tweets to evidence fraud in Philly. Apparently Nate says that 100% of all votes dropped recently were for Biden and that's the evidence.

Is that even possible?

Of course he has this. Biden winning PA has clearly been a formality for the last 24 hours.

But I get it, people won't feel safe til its real.

Telling it like it is.

LOL oh PLEASE let him make this argument, it'll be HILARIOUS to watch. Also, so easy to mock Republicans - oh, were the cowards scared by a poll?

r469 I just scrolled thru some right wing Twitter accounts and they're all screaming about VOTER OPPRESSION!!

Ironic, isn't it?

Dump lead in PA drops to 50.0%. 6k more votes just added.

2 minute press warning given for Dump press conference. Here we go!

Thanks, R465. : )

Dave Wasserman:

Now that Trump's PA lead is down to 75k, it's possible there are enough remaining ballots in Delaware, Lehigh, Bucks and Berks counties to erase that entire margin - even before more Philadelphia ballots are counted.

Time to watch Lucy and Ethel. No time for Trump and his lies and self-pity.

He’s a fucking lunatic.

Trump speaks.

1. I want to punch him

2. He sounds very drugged

Trump just started claiming he's won. CNN immediately states "Without any evidence, Trump says he's being cheated".

MSNBC just shut off Trump.

He is claiming there are many illegal ballots.

Of course.

Trump declares himself King of Romania

LOL what was that, 30 seconds before MSNBC cut away from Trump?

Trump currently making a big fool of himself in a press conference.

Talking about "legal votes" and "Illegal votes" that aparently he alone gets to decide which is which. LMAO!!!!

PA and GA are annoying because since Trump is technically "ahead" now in the counted votes, they're showing as pink/Rep. leads. Where as AZ is solid blue (or lean blue) and NV is lean blue.

msnbc not even showing him, hahahahah

"We kept the Senate"

He just said the votes were stolen.

Oh, that's right. Only the votes for him were stolen.

Ha MSNBC cut him off before I could get up for the remote to mute him!

Oh and have to say, I do love the sad sigh Trump gave as he tried to recite his big victories haha

I’m so sick of hearing him. MSNBC is great because they limit how much of him they show.

[quote[Fox wants to go on offense against a Biden Harris Administration. Even they're exhausted.

Absolutely. Trump is yesterday's news. They are sharpening the knives for President Biden.

Keep in mind while watching him that nearly 70 million of your countrymen voted for this lunatic.

Trump reciting all the Republican "victories" in the election.

What the FUCK does any of this have to do with the presidential race that he is about to LOSE???

“Democrats are the party of big media”

As he goes and starts Trump News Network by 2022.

Where’s the value in showing him babble on and lie continually? They can just report the key points later.

Need to post the lede from that NY Post article and how much the Murdochs hate him now

[italic] A panicked Donald Trump Jr. on Thursday fired off a tweet calling for his dad to wage “total war over the election” — while parroting the same baseless allegations of voter fraud that his father has used to explain away his dwindling hopes of staying in the White House.

Contrast Trump's address right now with Biden's earlier today.

It is still beyond me how anyone looks at Trump and thinks, "He would make a strong leader of the free world."

Meanwhile, Large moving truck spotted outside White House......

He's mentioned his Florida win twice now. LOL

Winning Florida doesn't mean you deserve to win the overall election idiot boy.

Such a fucking weak sack of shit. For the love of god, beyond astounding how anyone thinks this is what a real grown man should be like that

[quote]There are many throats and PollTroll only has one dick. Chill, y'all.

It is also my understanding that PollTroll has a throat and the DL has many dicks.

And once again, in claiming massive voter fraud, Trump shits, vomits, and pisses all over democracy.

In his deranged mind he probably thinks by spouting about how the Rethugs kept so many of their other seats that it must mean there was voter fraud against him.

“Trump Falsely Claims Fraud in Vote Counting” according to NBC

😂😂😂😂😂🤡😂😂😂😂😂

Msnbc cut in off in a New York minute.

Trump's base is 100% anti-intellectualism.

God he's just embarrassing himself even more with this "news conference."

What a big baby, "I WAS WINNING AND THEY STOLE IT FROM ME.!!!!!"

He's a coward. He's going to dodge out of the WH like he dodged out of Vietnam. Shame on everyone who voted for him.

He’s drugged

He's babbling about how wrong all the polls were, as if that's going to change this FUCKING OUTCOME here. How they were all against him but he "beat them". Well so? Get back to your rooms and start packing man.

[Quote] It is still beyond me how anyone looks at Trump and thinks, "He would make a strong leader of the free world."

The irony is that they see "smooth" politicians as liars whereas big baby Trump reads as "authentic" to them. They overlook his bad deeds like he's the pervert uncle at the family reunion.

[quote]He has begun by illegitimately, prematurely declaring a victory – launching into a series of lies about the elections.

If only the media was this blunt in talking about Trump from the moment he entered the Republican primary

Oh quick request - does anyone have a screenshot of the CNN graphics yesterday (I think) when it said something like "Trump intends to go to court; unclear why"?

How can someone who is "winning" so much sound like such a loser?

So he was happy that the polls were wrong in 2016, right?

Dump is a lying PIG. Lie after lie after lie. What a sore loser. Repeating over and over that he has won. Worst president ever, ever in the history of the world.

He needs to leave the White House via flaming torches and pitchforks.

Eerie now gone blue. Good after Trump insulted them at that rally

Sore loser does not play well.

Dave Wasserman:

Breaking: Biden has taken the lead in Erie County - Pennsylvania's ultimate bellwether - by 1,319 votes (0.9 points). Clinton lost it by 1.6 points, and there are likely more ballots to come there.

Someone should tell him if he concedes right now the Dems *might* consider focusing on putting Jared in jail instead of him.

You know he'd do it.

What a wuss.

Special K much, Donnie?

"Tremendous litigation"

"Tremendous litigation"

A shred of evidence would go a long way, Mr. Cry-Baby president.

I would give anything for Fox News to break into this and announce Biden has won Pennsylvania and the presidency.

Get the HOOK and yank this ass off the stage ffs. What a major embarrassment. Suck it up and leave with some shred of pride.

R521 Didn’t people get hospitalized with hypothermia at that rally?

70 million people. 70 million voted for him. This country will never recover.

Knowing how Orange can't stand to lose and nothing is ever his fault and he also can't shut up...

I'm waiting for the interview he gives where he says losing wasn't his fault because Daddy Put Put had promised him to fix the election for him again like he did in 2016 and he (Put Put) was "very weak," and didn't follow through.

“Very strongly” 😂😂😂

Malignant narcissistic sociopath. What a mess. Also seems like he’s on a good dose of Xanax. Sore loser. Everyone is always against him. He is always a victim. A cannot believe that this individual is/was President of the United States. Good riddance!

So Trump is saying that upon seeing the polls look bad, his base had so little confidence in Trump, and so much belief in the "fake media" that they decided they wouldn't bother voting?

"If you didn't vote for me it's ILLEGAL and you'll be sorry!"

[quote]What a wuss.

The word is "SNOWFLAKE", Della.

[quote]Get the HOOK and yank this ass off the stage ffs.

Or just get the HOOK-er. Where is Melania, anyway?

FOX NEWS really turned on him. While they are showing this in full, they now fact checking and have "shady captions". Air quoting the most ridiculous statements.

I can't even be furious at him; he's so pathetic right now all I can do is laugh.

We will soon be RID of him, THANK GOD IN HEAVEN!!!!!!!

[quote]In his deranged mind he probably thinks by spouting about how the Rethugs kept so many of their other seats that it must mean there was voter fraud against him.

So he's arguing that the Dems launched a sophisticated fraud operation to target him but failed to stop Republicans from gaining House seats and retaining the balance of power in the Senate?

R521 Pretty sure him telling MI he'd never come back to the state if they didn't vote for him sealed it for Biden

Lies lies lies lies lies lies lies lies lies lies lies

I blame Ukraine

I hope he walks down a ramp soon.

It’s astounding he’s trying to start the narrative that absentee ballots were created JUST for this election.

Was it voter fraud or voter oppression because of fake polls, which is it?

Is a suppression poll like a stripper poll?

I stand corrected, r539

R541 Murdoch knows Trump is going to be planning to launch a competitor to Fox, so he's trying to kill it before it's born. Plus, I imagine there's a lot of Republicans who'd work with Murdoch to help kill off Trump as any kind of kingmaker

the real tell with Fox is how their worst hosts treat this. Even though someone like Brett Baier is a partisan hack, he's not a deranged psycho like Hannity, Carlson, Ingraham, Pirro, Dobbs etc. If those people start turning on him you know Fox is done with Trump

Who wrote this dogs-breakfast of a speech? This is the musing of a madman!

"Tremendous corruption and fraud"

"I told everybody this would happen..."

"Unprecedented in American history..."

"Corrupt Democrat machine...."

CNN Chyron FTW

WOW, PA vote count is dropping every second live on split screen while Trump speaks. I think it is about to be called.

[quote]Trump's base is 100% anti-intellectualism.

Like the goons in AZ bellowing 'Stop the Count'.

If only the AZ officials said, 'We listened to you and stopped the vote. Biden has more votes at this time, so he wins. You're welcome.'

He is claiming poll workers are in some conspiracy to steal the election for Biden

A single poll worker has done more for democracy in the US than this sack of shit EVER had

He is claiming poll workers are in some conspiracy to steal the election for Biden

A single poll worker has done more for democracy in the US than this sack of shit EVER had

Republican voters are such pussy snowflakes they're scared by polls!

Georgia DUMP!

Love CNN's shady subtitles

Kisses, Della! (waves from way over here)

is there a part 12 thread?

Joe was kicking back at his campaign headquarters, watching that shit show and laughing his ass off

He's just rambling now.

Remember whenever he speaks he projects, R555.

"You have an election day and the laws are very strong on that."

CNN chyron currently scrollling: "Without any evidence, Trump says he's being cheated"

Chatham County reporting, Trump's lead down to 3,035.

Poor stupid, stupid thing.

Trumps lead down to 3600 in GA

Washington Post expects the winner to be declared TONIGHT!

Wow -- Georgia did a vote dump and now it's basically a tie. The next one could put Biden over

I like presidents who don't lose

God, this is probably his worst press conference ever.

He really, really can't even conceive the possibility that he might have LOST the election fair and square.

Trump needs to go from white house to nut house.

Is there a Part 12 yet?

Smoooches back at 'ya, r564.

CNN BREAKING NEWS: Trump complains that mail-in votes are being counted.

How many votes left to count in Georgia? Anybody?????

Poor cheated Trump. Womp womp!

part 12?

"What a sad night for the United States of America ... lie after lie after lie." -- Jake Tapper

Threatens to take it to the Supreme Court.

All the legal experts I have seen interviewed over the past couple of days have emphatically stated that he hasn't got a legal leg to stand on.

I switched to Fox News now to see what those cunts will say about it. This will be telling.

An important reminder as Trump continues to whip up his violent base:

[quote] Like the goons in AZ bellowing 'Stop the Count'.

The goons in AZ were actually shouting for them to keep counting.

Meanwhile, the goons in PA are shouting for them to stop counting.

That's the official Trumpian argument right now -- keep counting in the states where he's behind and stop counting in the states where he's ahead.

Is his Stepford Wives Fembot imploding as we watch?

Trump needs a straight jacket and booties.

Jake Tapper is currently eviscerating Trump on CNN now.

Biden has a real shot at Georgia

Stuart Stevens:

[quote]I am hiring a sky writer to fly over Trump’s trashy house in Florida every weekend for next ten year’s to paint one message: LOSER.

[quote]Trump needs to go from white house to nut house.

I think the charnel house would be a viable option.

Vote for tRump = “legal vote”

Vote for Biden = “illegal vote”

🤡

12?

Cue the MAGAt riots with guns!

12??

Wow. Donald is the old crazy man at the retirement home. Seems defeated and unbelievable.

R543, it's the same cheating that Hillary did to lose the election in 2016.

cunt?

New thread

Everyone will have to search for part 12, it should be right at the top of the index given how many people are posting - see you over there.

Relax, everyone. I’m in charge.

12???

Dump dump!

Thanks r602!

Can we cut a deal with Trumpski? Cut off Florida with a big, beautiful tremendous wall and Florida can pay for it. All those Latinos who thought they would be under socialism can live under King Trump of Florida and his dictatorship akin to Thai monarchy and let everyone else heal their trauma and get on with it.

Trump is so pathetic, acting once again like the victim. He claims to be the undisputed king of the United States, but his weak whimpering gives him away.

He'll never admit losing, he'll never ever concede. He's trapped himself into a corner that he can't buy his way out of.

😊 [italic] Life Is Good !

Georgia looks like it’s about to pull out its fat cock. 3.5k difference!

[quote]Meanwhile, the goons in PA are shouting for them to stop counting.

They're going to get whiplash when they change their chant when and as Biden pulls ahead.

,,,,

Lol, our local Spanish news anchor lady said “meanwhile, back in reality” after they had showed a clip of the orange idiot saying he had won.

😛🤣😂
