C'mon...

You denied me Lindsay Graham getting kicked out of the Senate (expected but still disappointing).

You denied me Joni Ernst losing her seat (the polls tightened so not completely unexpected).

And some-fucking-how Susan Collins was reelected.

Just give me Georgia.

I think she said it wrong. That's what his total margin is, not the newest drop.

I'm waiting for Nate Cohn to tell me what to think, but off the top of my head Trump cut it by 10k which is pretty good for him but I don't think is quite what he needed.

Still no update from Cohn. HURRY UP MAN.

I think it was 41% Biden to 59% Trump which is...actually I think above what Trump needs. Uh oh. UH OH. Nate please come back and tell me why I'm dumb.

90k left to count in GA, all from heavy Dem areas Savanah and Atlanta. 40k to make up.

Trump has a path in Arizona and Fox was probably premature in calling is what it sounds like.

Courts will get involved in Arizona. There are countless videos of reports of people in conservative areas being given sharpies to vote (the machines only read pen), and the mail-in stuff has been a disaster there.
Lmfao they said this shit in PA at my precinct. Cuz we used sharpie branded pens. My girl went nuts about this. I was like you can go online and see our precinct was counted and everyone used the same pens lol.

So Biden would need like 65k to 25k?

72%. Seems tough.

Please do a little research before you go spouting your bullshit conspiracy theories

https://amp.usatoday.com/amp/6164820002

Arizona election officials say the claim is 'unfounded'
Elections departments across Arizona have confirmed that the claim is unfounded and that processes are in place to ensure ballots are counted, regardless of what kind of writing implement is used to fill them out.
The Arizona Republic reported that the Maricopa County Elections Department says voters are able to use black or blue ink or Sharpies to fill out ballots. The county's new tabulation machines, which were tested many times, will count votes cast with these types of pens.
Maricopa County also explained in a Twitter video that the new tabulation machine only reads the ovals, so bleed-throughs are not a problem, and that the new ballot style has off-centered columns, so bleed-throughs won't impact counting.
The county said it preferred Sharpies at voting centers because they dry much quicker, while ballpoint ink can smudge onto optical readers or other ballots which can create issues.

Yeah I dont get foolmos take that they arent

All political followings that care more about the candidate than his stances are cults

Thats not to say that everyone who voted Trump is in the cult, but the cult exists
Yeah obviously there's a Trump cult, but it's not 70m Americans. It's obvious that a definition of "cult" that includes the entire Republican and Democrat parties is totally wrong. One that includes just the Republican party is even more wrong.

Like I'm not even trying to be a 3rd party edgelord who says all 2 party voters are cultists. I want the 2 party voters to really try to understand why someone would vote for their terrible guy.

From what I heard, the issue with sharpie was that it bleeds through to the other side, not that the machine won't recognize it, but they'll see it on the opposite side.

Not that I think there's any credence to it.

That's actually true. Your markings are completely viewable from the back. Though you can't see what you marked on the back.

If Biden gets PA (which it's looking very likely that he will), he can stand to lose every other state - including Nevada and Arizona - and will still clear 270.

Before the NYT took down their needles they still had Biden with a 16% chance. I doubt he wins it, but it's not like Alaska or something (which is also technically uncalled)

The GOP establishment picked last night and today to pay Trump back for everything he did to them in 2016. Trust me, they're more than fine with handing the country over to Biden for four years if it means they can reload with someone more palatable to them in four years.
