ELECTION 2020 Part 16

Part 15 here:

Fuck Nevada

Thanks OP

Carry on here, bitches. The site was running slow so duplicate thread got started.

One wild card left in Nevada: 60,000 provisional ballots are still out. Those could break more for Trump than the mail in ballots, we just don't know, says John Lapinski, NBC director of elections

Hi Georgia!

What is this nonsense of Trump trying to get legislators to pressure electors to go against the will of the people? That and his planned victory rally this weekend ... who is enabling this nonsense?

Timmy reposted a GA peach meme. Let the celebrations begin!

The whole notion of "calling it" is suspect... the formal moment when the new President is elected in December 14, when the Electoral College votes. Everything before them is conventional, but not constitutional, in terms of picking the new President.

We always knew that Trump would try to challenge the election when he lost. He said so explicitly..."take it to my Supreme Court" etc. He could have lost by 30% and he'd still claim the election results were not valid.

It's a mess. He a psychopath/sociopath and there are too man Republicans who accepted that. So this was always going to happen. Joe won the election. It'll take time to get to Dec 14, and Trump and his gang will try lots more dirty tricks before then. Stay calm, stat patient. The American Democracy is purging a parasite, and it will take time.

If you want to know how to rig an election.....ask North Carolina republicans

Still waiting.

The other Part 16 threads are fraudulent and should be suppressed!

The networks are making excuses for not calling it. I’d imagine the Biden campaign is getting frustrated

Apparently Mark Meadows is egging on Trump’s dementia inside the White House.

This GA story is nuts. Just call it AP.

I think the networks want to wait until COB today, so maybe fire Biden’s speech?

Did the Libertarian in PA help or hurt Trump? Trying to think who she pulled votes from? If we had those 70,000 it would be done but conversely if Trump has them we'd be screwed

Who is responsible for this (3) #16 threads debacle? I want to speak to the manager....

There will be violence by nightfall if these networks don’t call it. The “stop the steal” shit is growing fast on Facebook.

To avoid this horse shit of 3 #16 threads in future can we create the next thread at 580?

Sorry, I think they will announce right before Biden’s speech

2 QAnons arrested for driving to the Philly count center armed last night.

R20 go right ahead. Nobody’s stopping you.

There’s going to be chaos the next two months with the “stop the steal” movement that Facebook allowed to brew. Hopefully half of them will be dead from covid within the next few weeks.

Ignore all R16 ballots and skip ahead to R17.

GOP leaders are nervously watching President Trump’s erratic handling of an election that's slipping away from him, delicately urging him and his team to clearly make a specific case about voting impropriety or accept the will of the American public.

As they watch Trump make one unfounded claim after another, Republicans are worried about the lasting ramifications from the President’s meritless barrage of attacks against a cornerstone of US democracy — especially as they gear up for two months of intense battling over two hugely consequential races in Georgia that will determine the next Senate majority.

I like the way r25 thinks.

Lol who cares what the “stop the steal” crowd says? It’s irrelevant. The world keeps spinning. Let them all protest maskless and catch covid. The hospitals are full so they can die at home.

Miss Lindsey says they will have support for their voter fraud claims in the next 48 hours. This lying faggot bitch is too much.

R23 proposes starting multiple #17 threads.

They need 48 hours to make something up? Geniuses!

R30 that’s not what I said hall monitor using the royal “we”.

It’s starting to fall apart.

306 baby

R34 That would be so fitting.

R33 QAnon loons and militias. What a fucking messed up crew.

48hrs? What the hell is hovering over that bitch to be such a Trump lapdog? Are they going to send Rudy to Ukraine again over the weekend to buy more disinformation?

My boyfriend and I have been abstaining from sex since the day before Election Day. It started as a joke but now I am climbing the walls horny. We said we'd fuck once Biden claims victory. So when people are saying, "Come on, Biden!". . .oh my God, it makes me hard.

[bold]Rupert Murdoch privately told Trump that he had lost — and made a similar call to McConnell: report[/bold]

As President Trump’s early lead on Election Day began to dwindle, he slowly began to realize that he could no longer rely on the support of Rupert Murdoch’s media empire, inews’ David Parsley wrote this Friday.

According to Parsley, Murdoch spoke to Trump earlier this week and told him he was set to lose the election, but Trump was having none of it.

“Privately, Mr Murdoch – formerly a friend and supporter of the President – is dismayed by Mr Trump’s inappropriate conduct since the polls closed,” Parsley writes. “The 89-year-old’s backing for the President has been scaled back substantially in recent months as concerns grew about Mr Trump’s erratic performance and handling of Covid-19.”

This Wednesday, Murdoch reportedly called Mitch McConnell and asked him and his GOP colleagues not to bolster Trump’s conspiracy theories about election fraud. McConnell apparently agreed, as evidenced by his Thursday morning comments where he said, “Claiming you’ve won the election is different from finishing the counting.”

“Other senior Republicans began to publicly question Mr Trump’s behaviour in the aftermath of the vote,” Parsley writes. “Such phone calls from Mr Murdoch and his team may help to explain why the President has struggled to find many prominent Republicans to publicly endorse his wild claims – alongside the lack of any evidence of fraud, of course.”

A link to the actual article, rather than an article about the article

R5 I worked the polls in Nevada and we had a lot of provisional ballots for a lot of Californians that were voting in Nevada for the first time. Many, many did not have a Nevada license. So they came in with documents proving that they actually lived here. They were allowed to vote. But they have to get a DMV ID or license by today. Because of Covid the DMV has been closed and it’s by appointment only.

I said in the last thread if we didn't get a result by 6 pm EST tonight we wouldn't hear anything until Thanksgiving.

How prescient of me.

Jerry Hall's gynecologist must be the horns of Satan peering out when she spread eagles.

From the link at R40:

[quote]Prior to Mr Trump’s latest televised eruption, there had been vague speculation about the supposed political ambitions of his daughter, Ivanka Trump. The prospect of her ever receiving the support of Mr Murdoch and his right-wing US media assets appears slim, at this moment in time. Mr Murdoch believes Ivanka to be charming but the Trump name to be sullied beyond repair for any run at office in the foreseeable future.

This, if true, will guarantee Trump tries to launch his own network to take on Fox. The resulting GOP civil war will be delicious.

How Trumpy are the GA GOP Senate candidates? It's going to be interesting if Trump campaigns in the runoffs, or if he sulks.

R39 and yet Murdoch still allows Hannity to go on air, bend over, and open his ass to Orange by sharing his conspiracy theories.

Murdoch can go fuck himself.

Call the fucking thing!!!

The networks will call the race tonight for primetime ratings. They’ll also be calling it tonight so that we can see the Biden family act surprised when the race is called for them so that Biden can win with a lot of fanfare instead of a whimper.

Then he’ll make his speech.

The longer these vote counts take, the more opportunities the trump goons are given to say they keep “finding Biden votes”. The networks need to grow some balls and end this misery.

Are they waiting for Biden to be up by 20K votes in PA before they call it? What are they waiting for?

God Bless America

R49 I’m so tortured right now. And to think how well the day started with the numbers.

R51 summer down, the numbers aren’t worsening.

SIMMER DOWN

[quote]The networks will call the race tonight for primetime ratings

To anyone who thinks this: then why haven't AP called it? Their main customers are newspapers, who want the call early so they can properly plan tomorrow's paper, not be rushed before a short deadline.

Biden's PA lead is growing

Basic psychology should be taught in high school. People need to know how to identify and avoid psychopaths. Far too many people see Trump simply as thin-skinned, a liar, a manipulator, etc. Make no mistake—he's a psychopath. He is driven by the same forces that produce dictatorships and genocides.

The Qanon loon is already make enemies amongst her own party in the House

Biden up by 15K in PA.

AP won’t call NV because then they’d call the presidency for Biden and they clearly aren’t confident in their AZ call enough to do that.

My beau says if Biden wins the election, not only will he put it inside me again for the first time in 2 years, but he won't make me cover my head with a paper bag like he normally does!!!!!!

SOMEONE BETTER CALL THIS FUCKING ELECTION!!!!

R59 So why don't they call PA which everyone is saying is in the bag? Biden winning PA would make the AZ call irrelevant.

I don’t know r61. The entire internet is asking why no one is calling PA

Top 25 Trump administration villains.

'in sight' 'in reach'

At this point if they call it in primetime followed by the Biden/Harris speech they are the biggest prick teases of all time

Love PA's lieutenant governor

R62 They've stated why they haven't called it. Anyone asking why is just being ignorant, or are the fools who think the networks are delaying the call for primetime - hence me asking the original question of why AP would participate in that when they get zero benefit from delaying a call into primetime.

[quote]and yet Murdoch still allows Hannity to go on air, bend over, and open his ass to Orange by sharing his conspiracy theories.

As long as it makes money for Murdoch, nothing else matters.

Trump right now, except White! And with McDonald's!

Great interview with Mary Trump with UK's Channel 4

In 2016 Trump won Pennsylvania by 44K votes

When Biden hits 45K no reason on Earth not to call it...

R54 AP is in the social media world to you know. They will all be reporting the same information at the same time. You don’t think the Biden campaign hasn’t been in touch with the networks and what’s happening on the ground? Of course they are. Nothing is a surprise. Biden would not be addressing the nation tonight if he did didn’t know he had won.

too

[quote]They will all be reporting the same information at the same time

The Arizona call says differently. And again, why would AP delay the call when they could be first?

Mary Trump is the intelligent, decent Trump.

The rest of them that are well known are trashy.

And the social media world nobody is first. These aren’t the days of the newspaper and three networks. I used to work in fucking media I know how it works.

Maybe we could agree that poster of post 500 will start the next thread. That way there would be less confusion.

I recognize for a determined few of you this approach will deprive you of a great deal of the meaning in your lives.

Some of you would never have made it through 1824, which didn't get settled until February 1825.

R76 make sure you’re poster 500 and be our guest. Then stop droning on about it.

Once again, Matt Gaetz has the dumbest take

[quote]So why don't they call PA which everyone is saying is in the bag? Biden winning PA would make the AZ call irrelevant.

The PA State Department's Kathy Boockvar says they're doing provisional ballots now.

The mail in and absentee are mostly done.

There's nothing else left.

Not everyone who posts has the ability to make new threads.

Also, some people won't be paying attention or remember when they're the 500th post.

How did the new threads up until 16 go so smoothly? Was Muriel in charge? How does a thread get closed?

[quote]We said we'd fuck once Biden claims victory. So when people are saying, "Come on, Biden!". . .oh my God, it makes me hard.

You realize you are now required to livestream this on the Datalounge.

R75 Delivering newspapers hardly counts as working in the media. Stop trying to act like an insider when you can't even answer the most basic shit.

And Decision Desk is first on social media, they already called it for Biden.

Who is writing the chryons on MSNBC I'm turning this mess off. It says "race tightens" or "election tightens". That is just stirring the pot and is in no way indicative of what's happening here.

The trump legal fund was set up to cover the trump campaigns DEBT! LOL

Deplorables are suckers

Kayleigh MAGAninny is deleting all her tweets going back to late October

R86 It'll be the first time Trump has ever paid his debts. Of course he'd do it with someone else's money.

R87, pointless. People took screenshots of all of her crap.

Imagine if the networks called a state and then had to retract it? That would cause 10x the chaos that trump could cause. They want to be 100% sure they know what’s left to count and how it’s swinging before they make a call in PA. Blame Pa for being slow as fuck

A guy on MSNBC in NV just said he tried three times to register and vote yesterday. Who wants to tell him?

"Deli meats and diseases". I think Brian Williams is what Joe Biden would be if he went into journalism instead of politics.

[quote]Later on Friday, William Burck, an attorney for Bannon in a fraud case in New York City, told a federal judge he was withdrawing. Bannon is accused of misappropriating money from a group which raised $2m from thousands of donors to build a wall on the border with Mexico, and has pleaded not guilty. Burck did not give a reason for his withdrawal.

Steve Bannon is just beyond repulsive.

You can feel the nervousness from the reporter in Arizona. It's crazy seeing these fucking boogaloo cunts standing there with guns.

R94, I remember when he talked about how he fancied himself as a Robert Redford lookalike.

I miss Jeffrey Toobin on CNN.

I just got a text asking me to attend a rally celebrating Biden’s win tomorrow on the strip. I’m in Nevada. It’s a done deal.

LMFAO

This post is from a journalist in Canada who subscribed to "team Trump" emails. This one's priceless.

Here's a pic of the email in case you don't have twitter.

Holy shit, you've got to check out this screenshot of an email the Trump campaign sent out DEMANDING donations! This is fucking insane. Late stages of a cult right now

R98 a text from WHO?

Pastor says Trump will win because God will not allow prophets like himself to be mocked

R100 it's their last big cash grab. No more campaign money they can steal so they'll steal recount money. Wonder where they learned that from???

Loving this in Philadelphia...

I see a growing baldspot on the back of Anderson Cooper's scalp. It almost looks like he's using that Ronco spray-hair on it.

Biden just got a batch of votes in Gwinnett County in Georgia.

Indeed. Biden is currently up by 4,263 votes in GA.

So with the hundreds of thousands of ballots that the USPS sat on and didn't deliver, should Dejoy be prosecuted for vote tampering?

Nate Cohn on Georgia:

Biden's lead is over 4,000 in Georgia, after new Gwinnett County ballots. I don't think we're getting a call here for weeks, but given that we have such a good accounting of what's outstanding, it's hard to see Trump winning this without a tabulation error

R107 / PollTroll - is there a good estimate of how many votes remain to be counted? And do you know what would be the smallest margin allowed that would not initiate an automatic recount? Thnx in advance

Where Steve homeless at, R93?

In R111 I was talking about Georgia to be clear!

John Lewis Will Have His Revenge on Trump

The SOS of Georgia already said they're going to do a recount.

R111, if you look at Nate Cohn's new analysis at R110, he says we won't have an official call in Georgia for possibly several weeks but that Biden should win Georgia based on what we know unless there is a major tabulation error.

Per Georgia's Recount rules:

[quote]Recounts can be requested if the margin of victory is within .5%. Biden currently leads Trump by just over 1,500 votes after surpassing the president's lead early Friday morning.

What happened to all the Anti-Nancy and "Biden's Win is Not a Mandate," trolls? It's so strange how they all come in at once and leave at once. Must be a lunch break.

R117, Biden's GA lead has now grown to 4,262, but yes, it's heading for a recount.

R118 vodka doesn’t drink itself

R115 hypothetically if Biden’s lead stretched far enough that would be retracted? I was wondering what that threshold would be.

R117 is there a distinction between a threshold for an auto-recount and a threshold wherein one is allowed to request?

Is PA on track for a recount or just GA? GA already came through for us with the Jan runoff senate votes.

For R122

Military/Provisional ballots could swing back the GA race for Trump, according to the state election office. The question is if there is enough of them returned by today's deadline.

Doesn't PA have some difficult recount rules? I seem to remember it being a problem when the honorable Jill Stein was trying to get one done back in 2016.

R124 Recount either way I at these margins.

GA is NOT IN PLAY to 270 it is in play to pad EV.

I don’t think PA is getting called tonight. Not until they know how those provisionals are gonna go

Jim Acosta, CNN:

[quote]Trump adviser said Giuliani and others in inner circle are enabling the president as he refuses to grasp the reality that the WH is slipping away. "People are enabling him," adviser said, calling situation inside WH right now "chaos."

Counted ballots are still trickling in to PA.

30% of counties (20 of 67) have reported absentee votes. Even if 100% have been counted, they have not been reported.

R124, Nate Cohn says that most military/overseas ballots have already been counted in GA:

I’m getting nervous about Pennsylvania again. I want to see Biden with a 40k lead and it’s not there yet.

Please note: a cache of about 29,000 mail-in ballots in Allegheny County (Pittsburgh) that a court had ordered to be segregated and double-checked will be counted starting at 5 p.m. Eastern.

Sounds like the next batch of PA ballots won't be reported until 6:30 pm.

The next dump of votes is 7pm for Clark County in NV

R123 GO FUCK YOURSELF YOU SUPERCILIOUS ASSHOLE!

I am sick of this shit coverage of Trump's hissy-fits.

This needs to be about Biden's victory.

Trump doesn't get to decide who is the next President.

If SC judges decide to overturn the election, the government falls and there will be riots. Keep that in mind Amy, Alito, Thomas, Gorsuch and Bret. Somebody will come for you!

People keep saying that Dump is worried about going to jail. I have to disagree with this one. I don't think he's actually capable of thinking in terms like that because his entire life he's gotten away with everything without consequence. He's been taught that he is untouchable.

He's a psychopath who cannot stand to lose, be rejected, or not have the final word. That's what his freak out is about. That's what they're always about.

I am sick of them covering his hissy fits too. It’s a fucking JOKE. People are “enabling” him?!? Isn’t he a grown man in his fucking 70’s and a supposed successful businessman?!? He needs OTHERS to “help” him “see” the fucking FACTS?!?? What a vagina!!!!!!!

More to his shock and detriment then when NYS AG James serves his ass a list of offenses....R137

There needs to be an emergency impeachment, even if he'll be gone in a couple of months.

Spineless Republicans could get it done. But they fear Trump's poorly educated base.

Is Trump going to address us tonight? I want to see another meltdown...

White House has called a lid, so no Trump appearances tonight, thank fuck

Oh, did it pinch, R78? Loser.

I'm an avid fan of Christin Amanpour on PBS. She tweeted:

Christiane Amanpour @camanpour

A reflection on President Trump’s comments last night:

The last President I covered who refused to accept the vote count in an election was Mahmoud Ahmadinejad in Iran, 2009.

What time is Biden addressing the nation?

Oops, Christiane, sorry. R144

r145, It's unclear now if he even will be. He wants to be officially declared president-elect before he does, and with the counting of the votes still ongoing, it's unknown when that will be.

I didn't realise how cute (in a nerdy way) Nate Cohn is. By far the superior Nate.

Sometimes, I really love the things posted on Twitter:

In a final bid for victory, Trump changes name to Joe Biden.

thanks r147

On another thread someone says 8pm, but didn’t say the time zone. If anyone can verify, I’d like to know the time tonight too.

The fricking Miss Senatrice needs to shut her Trump-enabling mouth and go play with her dolly.

Lindsey Graham is little more than a Trump enabling cunt now and I hope he goes down with the Trumptanic with all the other Trumpbots.

Cohn suggests networks may be waiting for PA margin to be greater than .5% (anything less triggers an automatic recount) before calling - that'd be around 35,000 votes. That makes a great deal of sense - imagine they called it, and then it went to recounts? That'd be even more agonising than this.

[quote] "People are enabling him," adviser said, calling situation inside WH right now "chaos."

And how exactly would this be different from every day of the last four years?

r77 I knew Joan Crawford was old, but I had no idea she ran for President -- and decades before women could even vote! What a gal!

[quote]i find it hard to believe that mitch won by a landslide. He is very unpopular in his state.

See if you can find something wrong with your logic.

[quote]On the 538 podcast just this evening they said that once Biden surpasses Trump in PA, they’ll call it for Biden

How did that work out for them?

This is just sad

New votes in Nevada expand Biden's lead.

Arizona 11 Biden ✓ +39,070 90%

Georgia 16 Biden +4,155 99%

Nevada 6 Biden +20,137 87%

North Carolina 15 Trump +76,656 99%

Pennsylvania 20 Biden +15,044 98%

[quote]International election observers from Bolivia, Brazil, Chile, Colombia, the Dominican Republic and Panama said they found the presidential campaign was “competitive and quite aggressive, with one campaign, in particular, launching repeated attacks on its major rival as well as the integrity of the country’s electoral system” in a damning new report.

[quote]“These attacks served to further divide an already highly polarized electorate and electoral process,” said the report from the Organization of American States, a Washington-based group that has also provided analysis of often chaotic Latin American elections.

[quote]The report also noted that Trump-allied “stop the count” demonstrators “were clear examples of intimidation of electoral officials”.

Full report at link

Are the Nevada vote counters taking hour-long breaks every 20 minutes, or what?

R159 That's hilarious, but also:

[quote]This source also tells me the GOP review panel member in question was brought in during Friday’s session to replace the original person who was serving as the party’s representative.

is chilling. They're swapping out members to put more aggressive/combative individuals in place.

r162, are they wrong?

CNN hosts are giving very good reasons why the network will wait for more results to be released before projecting more states to Biden.

These networks are REALLY starting to piss me off. Call this fucking race. It’s like they are trying to give Dump the biggest participation trophy they can

Postal service slowdowns in key states are suspicious:

WASHINGTON — The Postal Service has continued to struggle in the days before the election to meet its standards for on-time delivery of mail ballots despite court orders intended to speed its operations.

The percentage of ballots delivered to election officials nationwide in one to three days has hovered in the low to mid-90s in the past week. But portions of swing states like Pennsylvania and Michigan have seen significantly lower rates in the closing days of the campaign, leaving some voting rights groups concerned about ballots being mailed in time to be counted.

According to an estimate by the United States Elections Project, about 29.6 million mail-in ballots are still outstanding, although it is not clear how many of those were never sent back or reflected decisions by voters to cast their ballots in person.

Judge Emmet G. Sullivan of United States District Court for the District of Columbia ordered on Sunday evening that the Postal Service again emphasize to its work force the need for “extraordinary measures” to ensure that every possible ballot was delivered by the cutoff time on Election Day, or Monday in Louisiana.

Judge Sullivan instructed the agency to clear and process all local ballots for delivery to election officials by no later than the next morning until at least Saturday. The agency must also use its Express Mail network to expedite certain ballots.

Are the 100,000 provisional ballots in PA caused for concern? I hate how long this is taking!

Biden leads in Nevada by 22,657 votes now.

Nate Cohn on AZ:

The ballots in from AZ tonight aren't looking great for Trump. Biden just led Yuma's update, where Trump led the count so far. It's the first post-election ballot dump where he's outran the tabulated vote count, at least that I remember. If that holds in the Maricopa wave...

cnt'd-

Pennsylvania, whose electoral votes could clinch a victory for either candidate, has experienced some of the most significant mail delays in the delivery of ballots. In the district covering the center of the state, daily on-time ballot delivery rates over the past 10 days have ranged from 83.28 percent to as low as 56.21 percent. The Philadelphia metropolitan area has seen better on-time delivery rates during the same period — between 78.01 and 96.7 percent — along with the Western Pennsylvania district.

The Postal Service has blamed the effects of the coronavirus and a lack of available employees for service issues in Central Pennsylvania. In a court filing on Sunday, the agency said it was moving employees to its processing plant, maximizing overtime and hiring new employees to address concerns about mail ballots.

Figures show problems in Michigan as well. Over the past week, Detroit has seen its on-time rates vary from below 50 percent to 80 percent.

In the Greater Michigan district, covering the rest of the state, the rate varied from 55 percent to 96 percent. However, in that district — as in others around the country, like in North Carolina — the Postal Service said in court documents that the figures did not include ballots that were processed in local post offices and “delivered the same day with a near 100 percent success rate.”

The agency has also argued that daily delivery rates submitted to the courts do not accurately reflect performance, as the scores fluctuate based on day and mail volume. However, a Postal Service spokesman said he could not provide weekly figures by region.

The Postal Service has blamed the pandemic and labor shortages for some of the poor rates. As coronavirus cases surge across the country, the Detroit district reported just 78 percent of its employees were available to work, while Central Pennsylvania reported 84 percent, according to a court filing on Friday.

“This has been one of the things that I’ve been really worried about this year,” said Tammy Patrick, a former Arizona elections administrator and a senior adviser at Democracy Fund, a research and advocacy group. “When you get closer and closer to Election Day, your options tend to run out.”

Keith Combs, the president of the Detroit chapter of the American Postal Workers Union, said the post office was still recovering from operational cutbacks imposed this summer by Louis DeJoy, the postmaster general, while it continued to deal with a shortage of employees.

Backups in mail delivery were better than they once were, but customers were still experiencing delays, Mr. Combs said. The Postal Service has been careful to try to shield ballots from the slowdowns, but some might slip through the cracks, he added.

Michigan and Pennsylvania are far from the only places to report problems. Lakeland, the Postal Service district that covers most of Wisconsin and Northern Illinois, has consistently fallen below the national average, along with Atlanta. The Gulf Atlantic district, which includes parts of Georgia and Florida, has also performed below the national average most days this week.

Other swing states have not experienced delays that are as widespread. Certain postal districts in Florida, including Suncoast and South Florida, have mostly had ballot delivery to election officials at rates above 90 percent this week. With the exception of Friday and Saturday, the rate of on-time mail delivery in Arizona has stayed above 97 percent.

r168, Yup, Trump used Devoy to try to screw with all the mail in ballots. Especially in swing states.

Thank god they weren't completely successful.

[quote]Trump has turned us into a banana republic

Colombia's media agrees

Biden just gained about 300 votes in Republican-leaning Mercer County in PA.

We all know Biden's won, why won't he just give his speech and accept it? I know he's trying to be traditional/respectful but it's fairly obvious at this point

President Twitter Troll is done! Done!! DONE!!! Just call him "Done-E Trump."

Biden said wait for all the votes are counted, he will look two faced if he just comes out now and proclaims victory. Even though he has it locked up.

How soon can they ban Dump from Twitter?

[quote]Are the 100,000 provisional ballots in PA caused for concern?

No, I don't think so. As you must be aware, it takes quite a lot to make me concerned.

Cohn:

[quote]New Clark County ballots expand Biden's lead in Nevada. I am not aware of a reason to believe that Trump can overcome his deficit in the state

Because he wants to wait until the race is officially called. That will only happen once the Decision Desk at the networks make that call that Trump cannot possibly win the state at that point.

Watch John King on CNN, he's explained this numerous times already.

Nate Cohen can’t understand why they haven’t called the race yet.

Jon Favreau says they haven’t called it because they are scared of Trump.

Biden's lead in Pennsylvania goes up to 14,923.

r179 For life, apparently.

DeJoy need to be investigated for deliberate interference in the electoral process.

R182 still doesn’t make sense to me. The PA votes are overwhelmingly in one direction. It’s mathematically impossible for Trump to catch up. Same with NV and probably AZ.

I'm not watching John King until he loses about 30 pounds.

MAGA douche Herschel Walker thinks we should have a "do over" election because he doesn't like the election's results

Did they finally send Steve Kornacki home? He seemed to be falling apart.

Projecting a winner is NOT the end of an election, votes will continue to be counted but it’s about being clear with the American people what the reality is. The news networks are being disingenuous not calling this what we can all see

Wasserman:

[quote]So far in the seven heavily red PA counties that have reported provisionals, they've represented just 0.9% of all ballots and have only broken for Trump by 3.7% more than his share of the other votes (76.1% vs. 72.4%). Here's why that's probably not good enough for Trump...

[quote]If you were to take those proportions and extrapolate them to the rest of the counties, it would only net Trump about 5k votes (+31k Trump to +26k Biden). Right now, he's on track to finish the remaining mail ballot count down by 50k+ votes. But that's not all...

[quote]

Serves him right, Rethug backing slime.

[quote] Did they finally send Steve Kornacki home?

Of course not!

He's currently napping next to the reflecting pool. After washing his pants with loving care.

I'm with Nate on Nevada. Just don't see how the numbers support Dump pulling ahead.

R188 I love John King and don't care how many pounds he packs on.

Biden expands lead in PA to 17,000.

So, when are they going to call this thing? Tonight, tomorrow, Sunday? They can't wait forever because the losing president is upset!

17,012, thank you.

Maybe they won't call the election until 2024!

Energizer Bunny Kornacki is tireless...

[quote] It's the first post-election ballot dump where he's outran the tabulated vote count

Oh, dear, Nate.

Biden will most likely NOT be speaking tonight, unless there is a call

Freepers in GA are trying to claim that write-in votes for Mike Pence should count as votes for Trump

The pundits are havin' fun (Football Saturday Night!) but they are playing a dangerous game. They are feeding the vast right wing conspiracy nuts who are building a movement. The longer these precincts stall (and that's what they're doing) the more Biden's presidency will be considered illegitimate ("They searched trash cans for days for ballots...").

Instead of quoting numbers, why aren't they investigating why the ballots continue to be uncounted? It's called investigative journalism, as opposed to entertainment.

I guarantee the Republicans (possibly Trump himself) will use this delay in 2024. "They crooked Democrats harvested Biden votes for weeks..."

r205 see r159.

Biden campaign definitely expected there to be a call by now. The stage is all set up. They must be frustrated

I laughed out loud.

r205, you just can't make this shit up.

Although you can try. That reads like an Onion story.

I’m confused did the Philly votes and suburbs get counted? There was a huge number outstanding,

Jon Ralston says it will take a miracle for Trump to win Nevada now:

R186, I said that earlier in one of the threads. Denjoy needs to be prosecuted for election interference.

“ Trump has signaled to allies that the Secret Service will have to drag him from the White House kicking and screaming”

R215 If they air it on PPV a Trump venture would finally turn a profit

It’s really absurd that no one has called Nevada. PA I kind of get. But trump is not winning Nevada

R215 setting my DVR now!!

Cable news ratings are probably setting records this week, so they're in no hurry to call anything.

I’m happy about about politics for the first time in years,

Steve Schmidt:

Goodbye Ivanka Trump. You will be loved by the people you disdain and disdained by the people you want to be loved by. There will never be a Met Ball for you again. You are fated to live out your years as an aging, corrupt, villainous Barbie; paying the price for what you did.

r215, is that for real? Pence needs too to enact the 25th Amendment and have him committed.

But of course he won't because he's one of his biggest bootlickers.

AP won’t call Nevada because that gives Biden 270. And they could (very very doubtful) be wrong about their AZ call. So they will wait for PA

R221 And don't forget, the Lincoln Project aren't done with her and Jared yet over their lawsuit threat

What kind of vote margin will Biden need before they will call it?

R225 Anything less than .5% triggers an automatic recount, so that seems like a good target. That'd be around 35,000 votes.

CNN should call Nevada since they didn’t call AZ.

Between that disaster of a press conference last night and now that reported stuff in Vanity Fair, methinks our current president needs to be in a rubber room as soon as possible.

The sad thing is he STILL has supporters even after all that.

[quote]Projecting a winner is NOT the end of an election, votes will continue to be counted but it’s about being clear with the American people what the reality is. The news networks are being disingenuous not calling this what we can all see

Exactly. Ari Melber just said something about "We're all on pins and needles here waiting." Um no, literally everyone knows Biden has already won.

You born again virgins, until it is called, must have noticed Biden is an anagram for Bed In. May we all have one once this is called!

[quote] reported stuff in Vanity Fair

Do you have a link or can you summarize?

HO HO HO

Can't Congress just remove him for mental unfitness. I thought Nancy already had this all ironed down in October?

r231, see the link at r215.

[quote] Jon Favreau says they haven’t called it because they are scared of Trump.

What are they scared he’s going to do? He’s threatened them with pretty much everything over the past four years.

What the fuck is the deal with Alaska? Is Sarah Palin in charge of counting their vote? They've only counted 56% of their vote. Everyone knows Alaska will go Republican, but surprisingly nobody has called it for Trump. Normally, Alaska would be called the minute the polls closed.

Mary Trump:

It's time. Call it.

BIden leads grows to almost 20,000 in PA.

Pence has to enact the 25th Amendment; according to the 25th Amendment.

What are the chances of that happening?

R236 Alaska won't start counting it's early and postal votes until the 10th, and the exit poll companies have decided that's the existing count isn't large enough to give a reasonable model to call on.

Kornacki's back from his nap! With a new red bracelet!

Trump is too big a pussy to actually make the Secret Service drag him out. And given the way his mind works, just threatening to do so is the same thing.

He will soon move on to launching Trump TV or whatever his next venture is (Defendant in Case #23459, People vs Donald Trump)

Is that a hospital bracelet R241?

PA-GA is the new MAGA

^^Or something one of his kids made for him?

R236, it’s the most ridiculous thing ever. Plus, AK has like 3 electoral votes. It’s hardly consequential.

Update on the outcome.

Does Steve ever react to jokes with anything other than a blank stare?

Senate race in AK is important in the event Dem Al Gross actually makes a race out of it

Jacob Sobaroff is cute AF

He is married and has young kids, but still....

I thought I hated Ivanka, but Steve Schmidt has me beat.

Nate Silver gets it.

Joe is 19,584 ahead in Penn now.

Kornacki is an aspie. They're very smart, but they don't get humor.

Rachel Maddow Says She Is Quarantining

Looking back, your classic high school nerd was probably an aspie who was never diagnosed.

R252 You and Silver really think Trump is going to shut up once it's called?

[quote]Looking back, your classic high school nerd was probably an aspie who was never diagnosed.

I was that little girl!

PA was supposed to be 100K margin win for Biden. It's disappointing that this will end far below that and in a recount territory. That's the main reason this is till dragging out. GOP were smart to disqualify all late arriving ballots here. The trick worked.

I don't understand why is it ok for Alaska to wait for ballots to arrive until 10th November but not for PA!!!!!

Trump is not coming back from this.

There is no excuse not to call it.

Biden knew days ago he was going to win the state.

r253 AP shows him losing ground in PA (slightly.)

State E.V. Leader Margin Est. votes in

North Carolina 15 Trump +76,587 99%

Pennsylvania 20 Biden +16,825 98%

Remember how last week we discussed how the internet is so right wing that we all felt outnumbered 10-1 on social sites? We wondered if we could ever win when when we see so few vocal Dem supporters on Youtube and Reddit and Twitter. Well now we know we are in a silent majority of 74 million people. Pretty cool and shows exactly who is in our camp and who is in theirs. Puts to bed forever the idea that the R is the party of the hardworking 'bootstrap' types. They are idle with too much free time to waste online and in militias and in the Q world.

[quote]Trump is too big a pussy to actually make the Secret Service drag him out.

Symone Sanders will handle him with ease. I remember when she picked up a protestor on Super Tuesday and dragged her off the stage like she was a rag doll. Joy Reid and Rachel Maddow were in awe of her strength and speed.

PA is NOT looking good. No wonder nobody is calling it.

[quote]PA was supposed to be 100K margin win for Biden. It's disappointing that this will end far below that and in a recount territory.

Take the win dude. And recounts rarely change anything.

Must have been a fluke, because now Biden is at nearly 20K in PA.

R264= troll

R69, that was chilling.

In PA, there are still 102K mail in ballots to be counted, and 100K provisional

Are they really delaying calling PA, and therefore the entire election, because they're afraid of Trump and his delusional minions and what they might do over the weekend? Just call it.

Hopefully, R268, as Mary Trump said that he will probably want to take others down with him that would only mean his Republican cohorts, so I'm hopeful for that.

Remember that mail-in ballots in PA were not counted if they didn’t include the security sleeve. Dems mailed more. Thousands likely were invalid because they lacked the security sleeve.

9pm Maricopa will throw a BIG DUMP on us. IF that goes for Biden, I suspect AZ will be called by all other networks and AP will call either NV or PA and it will be over.

I'm pretty sure Arizona is getting called tonight setting the stage for Nevada or PA to clinch it for Biden.

R248 he comes that way too.

Of there are that many ballots left, Trump could easily pull ahead, it seems to me. What if he takes most of what is left in all these states? I’m back to being terrified.

[quote]9pm Maricopa will throw a BIG DUMP on us.

STOP with the scat fantasies.

I hope PA is the state to put him over the top.

Get a hold of yourself, r276!

R267 you should have that freak blocked long ago like everyone else.

Biden's GA lead is shrinking again.

I want to see them shoot Trump out of the WH with a tranq dart like an elephant. I've been waiting 4 years for this and I deserve it!

No, it’s not, R281!

God, where are you people coming from?

Kornacki said that trump needs to win this batch by over 60, if not it’s unlikely he’ll be able to pull it off, depending on how many votes it is. Potential AZ call at 9pm?

R257, no but as I said in the last thread, not calling when it’s obvious they should adds to the impression there’s something wrong happening. Once again, they are normalizing Trump.

CNN say 100k absentee so Biden could have a 80k lead once they’re all counted. That would be enough if CNN is right.

So much winning!

His top hair is thing as well, poor thing.

We are going the be having a similar conversation tomorrow night. And maybe Sunday night too.

NEVADA LAWSUIT FAILED YET AGAIN!!!!

Are we in primetime or no?

I see the trolls are creeping back

If the non-Fox/AP networks call AZ, I'm betting they'll call NV too.

R285 Stop with the stupid conspiracy theories, you're starting to sound like the QAnon loons. What would happen if they called PA and the margin ended up being under .5% and then there was an automatic recount? What would that do to the "impression there’s something wrong happening"? And, once again, a call isn't going to silence those crazies. They're going to be banging the fraud drum probably for months to come.

Agree, I think a NV/AZ call will come back to back. Trump has even less of a chance in NV. So if they call AZ there’s no excuse not to call NV as well

PA has 200,000 ballots left. It ain’t over - even if it looks good. 100k regular absentee and 100k disputed. They said it could be all weekend. We are likely looking at next week at this rate - as the “provisional” (aka, mailed on Election Day) ballots are yet to go too. Reason to be optimistic - but not to celebrate yet.

R284 has he pulled 60 percent in any of these AZ DUMPS yet? I’m losing track.

Oh come on! Just call it!

R283 it's a lame troll. Block and stop responding like everyone else has.

R296, NOPE! been below 53

That poor Arizona twink reporting for MSNBC. He looks scared

R293 what conspiracy theory? I’m talking about the way the press has carried water for Trump since 2015.

If Trump had these numbers, they’d have called it already.

Biden's GA lead did drop below 4,000 but then it went back up over 4,000 again.

Trump has to hit around 60+ range to have a chance at catching up Biden. Not happening.

Blue parts of Penn has many provisional ballots. Don’t think Trump can pull it out. Try should call PA already.

[quote]9pm Maricopa will throw a BIG DUMP on us.

When you post times, please indicate the TIME ZONE. Is this local time, EST or ???

R300 Can't blame him, surrounded by armed boogaloo nuts

R301 The press don't decide the calls. Their decision desks do. And the conspiracy theories that a) they're holding off their calls to help Trump or b) they're holding off their calls in coordination with Biden campaign, or c) they're holding off the calls for ratings. All are equally dumb.

Some of you just need to go to bed if you can't handle waiting.

The PA Lt governor is a riot. You’d never imagine he was the LT. Governor

R305, local time.

They should call.... MSNBC didn’t give a number but said many provisional ballots were in blue counties.

So 11PM Eastern and 8PM Pacific?

They (the networks) are prolonging this weird state of limbo and anxiety in this country by not calling this .... and why exactly? because they’re scared of telling Trump he’s a loser? Because they want to drag this out for ratings? It’s just ridiculous.

I think what we've learned is mail in voting is good, we just need a sane president and a functioning post office and some legislation to protect it. Joe's first legislative package needs to be election reforms.

R306 thinks this is normal apparently.

SNL must be shitting themselves about just what their opening skit is going to be tomorrow night.

No. He can't.

AOC knows her history.

In Germany, 1946, NO ONE was a Nazi.

They only pretended to be for their jobs

And all the real Nazis were being spirited away by the Vatican to Argentina, so how could we be Nazis?

Not having watched 24 hour news shows in the past, I must say the cast of characters at CNN are quite the island of misfit toys, and MSNBC’s island is also in the same archipelago.

r279, r276 is your classic concern troll. Don't bother answering them.

R328 It's almost like this election is happening under unique circumstances or something

Largest turnout, unprecedented use of early and postal ballots, a pandemic, a president more than willing to allege fraud and to encourage violence, a DoJ threatening to send armed federal agents to polling places...WhY iS iT tAkInG lOnGeR tHaN lAsT tImE

Wow, the deplorable concern trolls are out tonight. LOL

Look at this cunt badgering the press at AZ..."go home sweetie" ugh. And then trying to make it seem like the press is goading them. You just know he practices negging.

To explain: these idiots think vans are showing up with fake votes being delivered by the media. In reality it's just camera equipment.

*U.S. Supreme Court orders PA to separate ballots received after Election Day.*

*CNN says the number is small and is not expected to affect the outcome in PA*

Oh, the gorgeous Gadi has a video showing the latter part happening - this is why he's nervous in his reports

In case anyone's wondering why one of the idiots yells about watermarks well - it's a QAnon thing, of course

[quote]Consider: Dept of Homeland Security controlled ‘official ballots’ production. Dems print extras, not knowing about non-radioactive isotope watermarks on ‘official ballots’. Military sting operation. After weeding out all counterfeit ballots, Trump landslide confirmed

One of the things I resent about this fucker is that even when being kicked out he manages to hold us all hostage. Once away he gets his fucking way running everything like a reality game show where they just fucking keep delaying the reveal.

MSNBC reached same conclusion, Poll Troll-- affects very few votes.

And Joy Reid is pronouncing "Nevada" with a Spanish accent.

I am waiting to see if she says "New Mexico" "New Meh-hee-co" or "Nuevo Meh-hee-co"

When are they just going to call this?

To believe r338 you would have to lack the most rudimentary knowledge of how elections are run in the US

R328,the hyper-vigilance of the states to count makes all the sense in the world, given it's Dump, who's been bringing lawsuits even before the states have finished counting. I just don't think the networks lay into this.

Chris Hayes, OTOH, says "Neh-vaaa-duh"

Biden has this.

Someone on Twitter (which someone posted to my IG) said that Biden should announce that he is Q during his victory speech.

R342 So, Republicans then?

*play into this

R325 they have more than enough to project. Their refusal to do so combined with no coherent explanation why they refuse is fueling suspicion.

AP and Fox had no problem defending their AZ projection. Now suddenly they’re all weak at the knees. This is bullshit.

Well just don't blame poor John King, he can't make any projections until the decision desk tells him he can.

r346, if he wants to be seen as a clown as much as Trump is, he should do that.

But he's an adult, so I don't think he will.

I think you're reading too much into it, R349. That would mean a cabal of news outlets, from The NY Times to Fox, united in not calling the election.

It was meant as a joke R351

SMH

What r339 said.

And never in the history of 350,000 years of human evolution has a single human being been the least worthy of this clusterfuck of attention than Donald Trump.

It's truly sickening.

When is Biden addressing the nation tonight?

Dave Wasserman's analysis of Allegheny Co., PA:

New: updated Allegheny Co. totals push Biden's lead to 19.3% and climbing w/ 680k ballots counted there. In 2016, Clinton won Allegheny by 16.4% w/ 658k ballots cast.

The only part of PA where Biden is on track for a meaningful decline from Clinton's '16 margin is Philadelphia.

R352 well an entire cabal of news station is failing to provide an explanation for not calling at least one of these states that makes sense.

r353, a joke is supposed to be funny.

R349 The media knows the jig is up once they call the election, and especially once Biden gets into office. There won't be a new shitstorm to cover everyday. There won't be a parade of sleazy flunkies passing in and out of the oval office.

Les Moonves said it "Trump doesn't make for great government, but he makes for great ratings".

The US news media is fucking garbage that is more interested in prolonging this to rile people up than in doing the right thing for democracy.

[quote] Chris Hayes, OTOH, says "Neh-vaaa-duh"

The pronunciation of "Nevada" was literally a running gag on VEEP when the election came down to Selina's campaign trying to stop the count there.

Is he still speaking at 8? All I'm getting are ads on the live feed and its 8:15. I saw a shot of the stage earlier.

An apologia for Clark County Nevada.

The Trump response to the Corona Virus Pandemic was a unilateral push of an unfunded mandate to the states. One of the items included in the HEROES Act was funding for elections security. This has stayed on McConnell's desk for five months.

The state of Nevada went through a legal legislative update to pandemic voting where all active voters were sent a mail-in ballot. No one supplemented Clark County's budget. The small Clark County Election Department was prohibited for processing Vote By Mail ballots until two weeks before the election date. This has proved to be insufficient.

The CCED is staffed with a small core of permanent employees and a small supplement of part-time/seasonal and volunteer workers. Because no funding was provided from the Federal government and the count time is obviously too short, leads us to the micro clusterfuck that we see in Metropolitan Las Vegas.

And PS, I wish that Clark County were renamed Las Vegas County. The worldwide travel destination known as Las Vegas and the Las Vegas Strip is actually NOT IN THE CITY OF LAS VEGAS. It's in Clark County.

This is the tweet about the ex-gay lawyer for Trump.

Biden cancelled speaking tonight because he thought the results in at least one of the states were going to come in.

The news media is intentionally dragging this out.

[quote]Their refusal to do so combined with no coherent explanation why they refuse is fueling suspicion

I agree, R359 and once again their love of the clicks Trump gives them serves him and his lies well.

Yes, R365, among *dangerous* paranoid nuts and trolls.

N.C. 15 Trump +76,490 99%

Pa. 20 Biden +20,487 98%

Ha, and Dave Wasserman on MSNBC just dealt with that bullshit argument.

Biden up 21,746 now per guardian in PA

A recount? Am I in Florida and is it the year 2000 again?

I feel like this is Groundhog Day ... every night I go to bed thinking, "Tomorrow we'll know."

Rinse and repeat.

Unless he coherently explained why none of these states can be projected, especially where Trump has NO path to win, he has not dealt with the argument.

Just explain it. If there’s a legit reason, there’s no need to hide it.

I hope someone is still feeding Chrissy keeping her strength up as she waits for her important solo, there can only be so many snacks in that purse of hers to sustain her during these troubled times of stress eating.

If Trump refuses to leave the White House, we should send in this goddess who I have named Amazon Braids Girl.

And which one of you is the guy in the blue shirt?

Business Insider (which I believe uses Election Desk HQ) called the race for Biden hours ago. Not sure what is up with the broadcast networks and their affiliates.

Did the fat old cocksucking Queen, who was so pissed about OP of Election Night thread 1 starting it early because she wanted to start the 1st thread for attention, derail 16?

I hope Trump can at least hold it together long enough to pardon Tiger King Joe Exotic before being tear gassed and dragged from the White House.

R373 It's been explained. Over and over and over, and you keep ignoring it, so I can now only assume you're just trolling.

One last time: A margin below .5% triggers an automatic recount - calling a state and then seeing it recount would be awful. Also, this is not like other elections. Previously, they could safely use previous elections as a guide to how each area would likely vote. The split between on-the-day votes, early/postal votes, and then how provisional votes would split complicates this and leads to confusion.

So you can believe one of two things. That they're being super-cautious because this is an entirely unprecedented election, and any false call will be seized upon by the president to try and smear the entire election. Or that the Associated Press and ALL of the networks are collectively in some kind of conspiracy to delay the results to benefit Trump/Biden/themselves. Protip: only one of these options results in you sounding like a QAnon believer.

I hate the phrase "pro tip" (it's just a smarmy phrase to use, no matter the context) but other than that, I agree with R379.

R379, that explains ONE state. And not very well since they’ve projected wins with smaller margins before.

But do go on covering for this cowardly press that still covers for that piece of shit, intentionally or otherwise.

So Biden needs a margin of more than 33,000 in PA to avoid a recount. So presumably once it gets over 33,000 they’ll all call it.

R381 Name those states and their recount rules.

State E.V. Leader Margin Est. votes

Ariz. 11 Biden ✓ +36,816 90%

Ga. 16 Biden +3,971 99%

Nev. 6 Biden +22,657 87%

N.C. 15 Trump +76,490 99%

Pa. 20 Biden +21,746 98%

I am as frustrated and antsy as anyone else waiting on a final call, but I have to accept that any misstep will be seized upon by the MAGA Orcs as proof of deception and a failed process.

Supreme Court declines Trump's request to stop ballot counting in PA. On MSNBC now.

R379 offers a fine explanation.

Including the phrase "pro tip"

Here’s a summary of recount laws in the remaining states, which as R381 stated vary from state to state.

R380 Fair, but it's like the fourth or fifth time I've said the exact same thing within this argument, so yeah, I let the smarm flow.

They all called Wisonsin and it's probably going to a recount.

I think this unnecessary drama is just riling up the loons who are revving up to full on Trumptard psychotic breaks that will lead to violence. Maybe that's what the media wants though. Weekend ratings.

Maybe but they are primarily worried about being fried for calling something too early.

(Even though they know Biden is the winner)

I do love the sass it seems every person from PA who's been on MSNBC has

Pro Tip Eldergays: "Pro Tip" is usually not used sarcastically or in a smarmy way--it's usually just what it sounds like-- and frequently used a way to indicate "don't make the same mistake I did"

As in "Pro Tip: Remember to ask the clerk at the Apple store about the coupon for free Air Pods when you buy your laptop, because getting one after the fact can be a real hassle"

[quote]I am as frustrated and antsy as anyone else waiting on a final call, but I have to accept that any misstep will be seized upon by the MAGA Orcs as proof of deception and a failed process.

What do you mean "Will be seized upon"? All of what you described HAS HAPPENED.

Dump already tried to declare himself the winner of the election on early Wed. morning. He's already gone on record saying that these ballots that are being counted now are fake. The "deception and failed process" narrative has already been spun by them. To him and his delusional supporters, he won the election.

[quote] They (the networks) are prolonging this weird state of limbo and anxiety in this country by not calling this .... and why exactly? because they’re scared of telling Trump he’s a loser?

a greater number of votes left to be counted

Pro tip: don't be a patronizing asshole

PERDUE VS OSSOFF ARE OFFICIALLY ADVANCING TO RUN OFF PER THE STATE!!!

R397 Once again, do you really think the Trump crazies are going to disappear once the call is made? If not, then what are you going on about?

[quote]NEW: Even if there’s no race call tonight, Joe Biden will still speak tonight, in similar terms to what he said yesterday, not declaring victory but stressing his lead and how close he is to winning, a campaign officials says.

We will have a 50-50 senate with Kamala as the tie-breaker (assuming we win the two GA run-offs). I am living for the first time Kamala breaks the tie. In your face, Mitch!!!

Why is everybody suddenly losing their shit about how long this is taking tonight?

In 2000 it took 5 WEEKS to resolve the election.

Are you all too young to remember that, or have you all just gotten old and crotchety?

*You* did R398, but it's not usually used that way. Was just helping out more seasoned members with their slang.

They are not disappearing. This crowd gearing up for Tea Party 2: Electric Boogaloo. And you can expect our good friends in the media to give them all kinds of coverage and all kinds of legitimacy. And guess what, they're even started up the old what about the poor white working class meme again. We never learn.

It's funny that Dotard is allowed to immediately come out and say he's won even though he didn't even come close to have enough of the numbers but if Biden were to jump the gun right now and just be like, I'm the winner. That's it. All done. Stop the counting.... people would lose their shit.

But that's how it always is with that Orange asshole... everyone lets everything slide with him because they all know he's a deranged baby throwing a tantrum and you're just supposed to pacify him while everyone else is held to a "normal" standard.

r99, is there a gofundme account up?

CNN and MSNBC have some long-ass commercial breaks.

So many pharma ads too

Biden up 21.7K in PA

r406 we live in a much different world in 2020 than we did in 2000

And this is a much different election

Dave Wasserman @Redistrict New: the U.S. just surpassed *147 million* votes counted and Biden's popular vote lead is up to 4.57 million (3.1%).

Here comes dumb Herschel Walker's even dumber son with an even worse take:

R405 Where are the two Independent senators in that calculation? (Sanders and King)

Biden shouldn't speak tonight; what is he going to say? "They are still counting and we are still waiting?"

R416 they are included in that number.

At this clip, PA should be called tomorrow. Biden’s lead has grown from 15K to 22k. If 33k is the number then that should be reached Sat or Sunday.

What is happening with Alaska's senate race?

R403, it's just giving them more and more time to gather and get a head of insane steam going. And, right in time for the weekend when they can all go nuts for two straight days. There are zero reasons to not call Nevada and Arizona. Hell, there really isn't any reason to not call Georgia and Pennsylvania either.

For those of you arguing that this is just normal or that the reasons given make any sense, ask yourself if you think it would have been called if the giant baby wasn't the one squatting in the White House like a giant turd that just won't flush.

[quote]It's funny that Dotard is allowed to immediately come out and say he's won even though he didn't even come close to have enough of the numbers but if Biden were to jump the gun right now and just be like, I'm the winner. That's it. All done. Stop the counting.... people would lose their shit.

Well why didn't Hillary get this official kind of recount as well? Is was every bit as close an election. Where was everyone then saying how every vote needed to be counted?

It's just bullshit. Give it to Biden already and tell everyone else to shut up. Enough with having to coddle this lardass and his inbred supporters.

R145, what a cunt!!!

People, we have to still deal with Trump for 11 more weeks until he is out of office, so if you are already losing your shit now...

R418 What I was asking is, are they included on the 50 Dems side, still making Dems 48?

R419 we've been saying that for three days.

Let's just face it. We're going to still be in this thread come December.

I feel like that sketch that was on SNL or MadTV, I don't remember which, but that sketch where everyone's trapped in the theater for weeks watching previews and the main feature never starts.

Yes, R425, it would be Dems 48 + 2 Independents that Caucus with them.

When the media "calls it" on a state it is just their projection. The only thing that matters is what the final actual vote count is AFTER the votes are certified which is something like 3 weeks from now. So stop bitching about the media deciding who did or didn't win. You have the same facts they have. Form your own conclusion.

The press DOES have to be more delicate with Trump. This is a hostage situation. He has to be removed carefully and systematically, so people don’t get killed.

R422 I don't know why you're quoting what you quoted and talking about Hillary... but I have always maintained they should have fought harder for Hillary's Presidency. They all knew the numbers were fucked up and there was tons of cheating and after 2000 and 2004 they should have recounted every last damn vote they could.

R429, chicken or the egg. He holds everyone hostage because they let him get away with everything from the start.

R420 Nothing. They won't start counting early and absentee votes until the 10th.

R421 You've been given the reasons, and you've given zero reasons for them to be ignored. And again NO-ONE IS SAYING THIS IS NORMAL. It's a completely unprecedented situation, hence the delay.

Christ, I can't wait to see how you behave once you realise we still have to wait for certification, and then the electoral college vote.

R421, a bunch of Nevada isn’t counted. Anybody that knows anything about Nevada knows it’s over, but people back East apparently think it’s still red like it was thirty or forty years ago. So fine, a bunch of it isn’t counted, let it go. It will probably be Monday or Tuesday at this rate.

AZ and GA- close. AZ seems like a wild card. Plus both were red for decades, so that’s why people aren’t too sure how it’s going to turn out.

PA is going to be the closer. So they can’t get it wrong. Besides, Trump is going to want to file a lot of frivolous lawsuits in PA, so they have to cover their asses.

They should just call all the remaining states at the same time. Trump gets NC. Biden gets AZ, NV, PA, and GA. The end.

[quote] This is a hostage situation. He has to be removed carefully and systematically, so people don’t get killed.

Isn't there some toxic chemical they could spray over the White House that would knock out Trump and his advisers? Sort of a Raid for presidential pests?

Is Rachel taking a lesbian vacation and blaming COVID?

Arizona coming in!

R433, the Supreme Court just told Trump to fuck off concerning PA.

Arizona came in and Biden's lead dropped by 7K

Trump missed the mark on the latest Arizona dump! 70,000 new votes Trump got 54.9% not the 59% he needs

Got sucked into a Trumper Twitter feed and saw that the nut bags are planning organized protests in every state capital at noon tomorrow to “protect the vote.”

COVID-19, do your worst.

🙀

Don’t see AZ being called then

Georgia senate seats.

Whoopi Goldberg said it best. If it's such a long and drawn out process, then the media should have said so at the beginning of their election broadcasts. They should also pack up shop so to speak on Wednesday and went on with their regular programming until the election results are firmly calculated and they had a clear winner.

What they did in 2000, for those who keep bringing THAT up.

Instead, they're being dishonest and turning the whole thing into a circus. Completely unprofessional. And all it's going to do is make people so bored of the whole thing that by the time Biden wins the enthusiasm level will be WAY down and a lot of people while relieved, will also be over it. And then don't come bitching and moaning on here over the lack of passion.

Deplorables were “protesting” in Rhode Island today where Biden beat Trump by 20 points. They’re unhinged.

Trump still gaining in Arizona, but not fast enough.

R440 Actually because he's been missing the % needed, now he needs over 60%

Ooops, as I am typing Kornacki just said that.

[quote] then the media should have said so at the beginning of their election broadcasts

They did! Literally they were talking about how there won't be a result until later in the week

Don't overcomplicate it with what % trump needs in AZ. We had a batch come in. Trump got 38K. Biden got 31K. Biden lost 7K of his lead but still has about 30K lead over trump.

If it’s called this weekend, that is less than a week for a very close election. Get over it.

[quotes]The only thing that matters is what the final actual vote count is AFTER the votes are certified which is something like 3 weeks from now. So

Required Certification Dates for 2020:

Pennsylvania -11/23/2020

Nevada - 12/01/2020

Arizona - 11/30/2020

Georgia - 11/20/2020

Biden is at the point where he only needs one state to win. They could have called it and continued their counts quietly. There's no chance things flip in all 4 of the states. They're doing this intentionally whether it's for ratings (sorry person that keeps saying it has nothing to do with ratings, it's silly to think it doesn't at this point when other media people and reps are asking what the deal is) or because they're scared of what he might do.

But this is just making it worse. Rip the band-aid off.

[quote]Thousands of Donald Trump supporters have unwittingly found themselves in a Facebook group called “Gay Communists for Socialism”, after being tricked by its creators into joining what they thought was a pro-Trump election group.

[quote]On Thursday, a Facebook group called “Stop the Steal”, a reference to the president’s false claims that Joe Biden is “stealing” the US election, was disabled by the social network for misinformation after gaining more than 350,000 members. Other groups emerged in its place, including a second “Stop the Steal” group that attracted more than 40,000 castaways from the original group.

[quote]But less than 24 hours later, an administrator for the group changed its name to “Gay Communists for Socialism” without explanation, confounding the new members.

AP and Fox would not have called it if they weren’t sure. Even cunt Megyn Kelly was defending the call today.

Biden won AZ

r439, they are saying on CNN that it appears that what is left to count may not be enough to take the state, but of course they have to keep counting.

R449 You're high. The only thing that matters is projecting how much vote would change the outcome.

We have a pissed off media flunky posting now.

Don't be mad because you work for a carnival sideshow, dear.

This mess is on the media. Has been for four years.

R451 the media does not decide who "got it". You can form your own opinion based on the facts being reported. Call it yourself if it makes you happy.

R444, the whole point is to wear people out so they’re resigned to their fate. They were talking about that on CNN earlier. If Trump isn’t going to concede, people need to see how the vote is going step by step. There’s always going to be some ride or die Trumpers, but many people can watch Republican officials talk about what’s going on and accept reality.

CNN has had a Republican election lawyer on to talk about the legalities several times. He has a pretty reassuring, calm demeanor.

I mean, we’re talking about Biden leading by 20K votes out of 6.6 MILLION total in PA. That’s enough to win but it’s nothing to get excited about, especially in Biden’s “I’m from SCRANTON” home state.

Per NPR today:

More than double LGBTQ voted for Trump than last election

Historical vote for Trump by Latinos including flipping the most Mexican-American border town in TX

More than 30% increase from last election in black men voting for Trump

It's time to drop the identity politics, flush the snowflakes, and focus on recovering from COVID and boosting the economy. I do believe supporting the President whether my choice or not. I'm disappointed for Biden I actually liked Trump and thought he could be pretty funny. On the flip side, I'm always excited to see what a new President can bring to the table and the changes that it will bring. I wish Biden the best of luck, sincerely, and I hope things get better for the American people. I love American and I want us to thrive.

State E.V. Leader Margin Est. votes

Ariz. 11 Biden ✓ +29,861 90%

Ga. 16 Biden +4,020 99%

Nev. 6 Biden +22,657 87%

N.C. 15 Trump +76,479 99%

Pa. 20 Biden +21,749 98%

MSNBC just said there are 100k provisional ballots in PA to be counted and their mostly Republican. Sounds like Biden is going to lose PA and AZ.

[quote](sorry person that keeps saying it has nothing to do with ratings, it's silly to think it doesn't at this point when other media people and reps are asking what the deal is

The AP isn't calling anything, and they don't benefit from ratings. And again, the networks don't call, the decision desks do.

Realistically though who wants to watch Wolf and John King flashback to the Hillary Clinton Donald Trump election numbers 300 times an hour. They should at least roll out the Talking Heads. Far better to watch them squabble than watch this math version of wheel of fortune.

[quote][R145], what a cunt!!!

Seems rather a harsh response to someone who was just asking what time Biden was going to speak.

[Quote] I actually liked Trump and thought he could be pretty funny.

You're quoting an idiot interviewed on NPR?

R462 He did not say "their" mostly Republican. He suggested it was a possibility, which we won't know until the numbers start coming in.

What I would like to see, since he is geographically close by, is when Biden is declared the winner and hopefully by Pennsylvania, that he holds his press conference from Independence Hall and talks about recommitting and returning the country and presidency to the core basics of the Declaration of Independence and Constitution and washing the country clean from the corruption of Donald Trump.

This could be worse. For those of us who remember Gore vs. Bush ... that was worse, with SCOTUS directly involved. Ugh!

R462 that is 100% false. Troll

R462 it's theoretical

there could be plenty of Democrats with provisional votes too

AZ 173,000 left total to count

Maricopa county 92,000 left to count

47,000 provisional ballots to be counted Wednesday (included in the AZ total)

There is no way for Trump to win Arizona now. None. They need to call it followed quickly by Pennsylvania.

R462, are you watching a different channel? That’s not what Kornacki said!

Even though it looks like Biden will win, at this point I really hope he does. I just don't think the country could handle a surprise Trump victory. It's not worth it to see this country go up in flames. The media, the social media commentators, the pollsters - absolutely vile. This is the best thing to ever happen to them. The more chaotic the better for them.

Poor Gadi Schwartz, he keeps having to report amid a bunch of Qanon nut cases.

Well, that’s what it sounded like to me. I’ve been feeling good all day and just now turned this on and I’m beside myself again.

R459? Why does it matter? Trump won by 77K votes in 3 States back in 2016. So you really think anyone is going to care about the margin? That’s not how this works.

R462 is a very obvious troll.

Wow. Gadi Schwartz on MSNBC just casually walking by men with guns at the Maricopa election office like it’s nothing. There’s an extreme sickness in this country. This is not normal.

[quote] What I would like to see, since he is geographically close by, is when Biden is declared the winner and hopefully by Pennsylvania, that he holds his press conference from Independence Hall and talks about recommitting and returning the country and presidency to the core basics of the Declaration of Independence and Constitution and washing the country clean from the corruption of Donald Trump.

I was hot there until the and.

LOL nice try R462

I am not a troll. Stop calling everyone a troll when they get a little freaked out.

Provisional ballots trend heavily Democratic

Does Nicole really not get that Gadi was being diplomatic because he's standing by a bunch of nuts with guns?!

The Secretary of State in AZ says some of the provisional ballots will end up being disqualified, so it won’t really be as many as the total says.

[quote] the media does not decide who "got it". You can form your own opinion based on the facts being reported. Call it yourself if it makes you happy.

R457, I'm going to pray to our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ that you learn how to be less obtuse on the internet and in public.

And I also will pray for you and hope that you realize you're incorrect and I will not engage with you after this because of it.

I wish you joy and I wish you happiness but above all this I wish you love.

OK, Jake Tapper is now lecturing the viewers.....

I’ve turned it off. I can’t handle the stress.

[quote]I am not a troll. Stop calling everyone a troll when they get a little freaked out.

You are the textbook definition of a troll.

The media flunky is a troll

Or an irritable John King cruising for cock on his breaks.

This thread of scenes from PA is fantastic to remove the bad taste of the scenes from AZ (except Gadi) from your mouth

Ohio Senate race separated by less than 50 votes.

Wolf just asked the Secretary of State of Arizona to predict the outcome of the provisional ballots. What a fucking idiot. He should know she can't do that. Her job is to count the votes, not forecast the outcome. Wolf has a network full of people who can make that forecast; imagine the hell that would erupt had she answered, "Oh, those ballots will likely favor Biden."

I think a lot of people forget that most of the states that have already been called are still counting votes too. It's just their margins are definitive enough to call the states. What's upsetting to me is how close the remaining states are. The fact that so many people voted for Trump to make the margins slim is what's preventing the race from being over. I think people are misplacing anger with the counters rather than deplorable voters who deserve all the wrath

If this election (and this year, in general) has proved anything, it's that we need more mental hospitals and to make it easier to commit people to them. We can start with the President.

What the hell happened to Al Sharpton, I haven’t seen him in years and he looks like a ghost?

R494 is also a damn troll.

r494 You should make it clear that's a STATE senate race, not US Senate.

They will save the victory speech for primetime tomorrow won't they. It won't air at 2pm or some random time.

r462 is a troll.

R443 Queen! She is amazing. We owe Georgia to her

Can you imagine if Hillary started yelling in 2016 that there was widespread voter fraud and cheating, and refused to accept reality? They would have crucified her. Trump is really a psychopath.

#Pobrecito

NBC reporting Joe will declare when the PA votes hit +35k

r510 But plenty of viewers want to get into them, Steve!

Also Delaware, R503. Because you never know. 🤪

Watching CNN these past few hours has been trying but worth it just for Jake Tapper's weary cynical snark today. Talk about being so over it, amazing.

He just called Trump's inner WH circle of advisors in charge of his legal strategies (Ivanka, Jared et al.) "not exactly the Algonquin Round Table, you know". lol.

Joe should wait to declare until he gets more than .5% on PA. Because that’s the recount amount.

I'd start thread 17 but got called names for this one so one of you cunts can do it or deal with this one slowing down.

I started ELECTION 2020 Part 17

R516, everybody at CNN is dead tired and even more exhausted and over it than the most fed up people on this thread. Wolf Blitzer said all his friends are texting him and asking, when is it going to be over?

Tapper has always had a cynical bitchiness I used to think he was gay. And a DLer. Then I heard he was married.

LOL the son

PART 17 -- SAME ONE AS AT R519

Posted thread here:

Again, both the AP and Fox called AZ for Biden on election night for a reason and they are NOT in the business of making mistakes. This is not a guessing game. They know that there is zero chance for Trump to catch up (barring some sort of late game cheating fiasco - which I always fear with the scum bag GOP). Biden will win all of them - AZ, NV, PA and GA. GA will try to cheat like Hell with the recount though - Biden/Harris attorneys need to be there every step of the way and watch them like hawks. Racism reaches a whole different level in the long-standing GOP controlled state of Georgia than many of you can imagine. I know well as half of my very racist, white, elitist family lives there and they are all well-educated so one would assume that they would know better than to hold on to such vile, archaic beliefs. Also being nut job Evangelicals just makes them that much more nauseating.

Biden up to 27,000 ahead in PA!

If we’re being honest, New York State has worried me since Tuesday.

John King is a south paw!

And his handwriting is pretty bad.

[quote] Can you imagine if Hillary started yelling in 2016 that there was widespread voter fraud and cheating, and refused to accept reality? They would have crucified her. Trump is really a psychopath.

In fairness, God knows what she said in those 12 hours she went missing overnight.

I’m really worried about California.

Biden's lead goes up to 27,130 in Penn.

They’re being cautious with PA because it’s ground zero for trumps “legal strategy” because he can’t win without it

Does anyone else miss Tim and his whiteboard?

R527 he went to the prestigious Boston Latin School

[Quote]Tapper has always had a cynical bitchiness I used to think he was gay. And a DLer. Then I heard he was married.

And he lives in a burb frau house Not a tasteful friend

See? That's what happens when you count the votes.

I heard Biden is up 27K in PA is it true? Has anyone heard?

R462 is not a troll. I came to this thread to express worry about the same thing he did. Biden's lead did shrink in AZ, and we can't count on the PA provisional ballots being mostly for Biden the way the mail votes were.

P.S. R530 posted as I was writing this. Thank god for that, 530!

I think COVID has exhausted a lot of people's patience. I know it has for me and I am fucking over it.

[Quote] Tapper has always had a cynical bitchiness I used to think he was gay. And a DLer. Then I heard he was married.

I'm so glad when I find out people are married. I need never again consider if they're gay.

Tapper is a great friend of Paul Rudd.

r536, it's true.

r539 Not funny.

Although it’s painful, it’s still wonderful that Biden will beat Trumo with 306 electoral college votes. That is the same number that Trump won in 2016. The same number that Kellyanne called a landslide. #justice

Maybe it’s Cockholm syndrome but I think Bob Casey senator for Pennsylvania is a hot daddy I want him and me quite deeply.

State E.V. Leader Margin Est. votes in

North Carolina 15 Trump +76,479 99%

Pennsylvania 20 Biden +27,174 99%

I'm so over-tired that I posted something on Nextdoor that by DL standards is just slightly bitchy. I got a 30-day suspension! Those cunts!

Yes! Kornacki just confirmed 27,000 up in PA, thanks to Allegheny County.

Remain calm. We just need to keep counting the votes.

Lol. In fairness though this is the kind of place that says merry Christmas you cunt

Republicans don’t fill out provisional ballots to the same extent as Democrats do. Stop needlessly worrying.

News anchor thirst is a real thing, especially KorSnacki!

There is a Provisional Vote Concern Troll.

Kornacki is gay, and publicly came out in 2011 through a column in Salon. He resides in the East Village of Manhattan.

200,000 votes left in PA. Would people stop saying it should be called now? It would be irresponsible and counter productive to call it. Personally I hope it’s at 99.9% for the remaining states. Let there be no question. No one is saying Trump won. The first thing Biden needs to do is emphasize the difference in leadership - truth and facts rather than lies and deceit.

R553 And he's a submissive bottom who needs to surrender to daddy and....

...sorry, it's been a stressful four days. Fuck, it's been a stressful year.

I think people just want it to be "official - official", if that makes sense. But they also want to see Trump's head fly off his neck. For me personally, I just want Jared and Ivanka to go back to their slime hole and never be heard from again.

So Biden will win by 100K votes. At least .

Biden to speak live in less than 10 minutes.

Has someone done 17?

Could kornacki be our own PollTroll? They’re never together.

R559, see R519 for link.

r559 I did 50.

I'm bummed that Rachel won't get to be part of the televised announcement and post-announcement commentary when it finally comes. What shitty fucking timing!

Whatever happens, she’ll be talking about it for a long time.

Santorum just said on CNN that Republicans believe that most of the provisional votes out in PA will be for Trump due to something. I didn't catch the entire thing. Anyone else hear it?

Cindy McCain is getting harassed by Trumpsters

The bloom is off the rose for me with Kornacki. He's getting more and more aspie as the days go on.

[QUOTE] Santorum just said on CNN that Republicans believe that most of the provisional votes out in PA will be for Trump due to something. I didn't catch the entire thing. Anyone else hear it?

No, he didn’t.

Stop.

On the bright side, John used to say the same thing to her

Oh look, the trolls are trolling.

You're insane, R568, he absolutely did; I heard it with my own ears.

OK, I'm watching SK right now and his little paunch is adorable. Do we think he's hairy?

Ok. Next time, listen fully and comment. Don't ask anyone to fill in the sentence for you.

The troll accusation is as paranoid as it is tired and feeble. At least name your delusion, R570.

r572 Highly doubtful.

Yeah, you're probably right, R575. His forearms are bald.

Santorum said that many Republicans, during the primary, checked a box that they wanted to be sent an absentee ballot and forgot, so they went in person on election day and were told they had to fill out a provisional ballot. I can't see 28,000 of them doing that.

[quote] Joe's first legislative package needs to be election reforms.

Over my flailing turtle body!

I know, R411! Unlike Fox, whose catheter, food supply buckets for the apocalypse, and sketchy, expensive supplement commercials are fantastic.

MSNBC's website looks and behaves like it was coded by a class of paste-eating kindergarteners.

Thank you, R577! I was in the other room and didn't hear his entire comment. Again, thank you clarifying that for me, and I agree with you. I can't see 28,000 folks doing that.

Trumpsters trying (and failing) to have their own dance party

Biden should just cancel all Trump executive orders and just start issuing a hundred a day of his own. Fuck McConnell. Let the hypocritical Repugs fume and whine all they want.

If you’re ready to tear your hair out, here’s Joe Biden as Captain America, fighting alongside the assembled Avengers.

48 hours of 253

Rick santorum Is garbage. He does nothing but lie.

In all honesty, R586, he and Chris Christie have been admirable. They've broken ranks with the rest of their party to call a spade a spade.

I just read that Gadi Schwartz is like the Snapchat news guy? What the hell is that?

"MSNBC's website looks and behaves like it was coded by a class of paste-eating kindergarteners."

I coded that site, so fuck you!

'Admirable', R587? The bar is so low.

Gadi Schwartz's twitter says he's an NBC correspondent

It is really is so low R590. I saw Christie on something yesterday and frankly I was surprised by how measured and reasonable he was being. I wondered what the hell was going on. Credit where it is due.

R572 Not only are Steve's arms bare, but saw a photo of him with his dad wearing shorts and dad's legs look totally hairless.

R572 he's not hairy. Trust me, I know.

Agreed, R592. I've felt the same way.

He doesn't look like a gymgoer

Some “not hairy” guys have surprisingly hairy bushes and holes.

i'm partial to a nice densely furred armpit, myself.

No more PA votes tonight.

Maybe Nevada will count another vote.
