Election Day [Week][Month[s]] [Year] 2020 follow-along thread

Here was Nate Cohn’s take:

In today’s wave of Arizona ballots, Trump won by under 17 points. That’s…
–A bit better for Biden then yesterday
–Probably not good enough for Trump to win
–Probably not enough for networks to call it for Biden

So we shall see. I think AZ and GA are both likely to be close enough for recounts. Getting PA margin up to like 50k+ for Biden would really help. It’s very important for no single state to be enough to turn around the EV count.

NBC says that Philly will be dropping some results soon. They will be working through the night. They say that they anticipate Biden overtaking at 4 or 5 am. (from an election official, not named, from a reporter)

I’m just hoping Kelly hangs on. I’ve seen enough of McSally’s simpering mug to last a lifetime…

They are reporting 200,000-350,000 votes left to be counted in AZ.

I do find it weird that a batch from Philadelphia today had 23,277 votes, ALL for Biden. That seems impossible.

Fivethirtyeight commented on that:

This one batch of votes in Philadelphia has been picked up by some people, including a commentator on Fox News, as possible evidence of fraud. It’s not. According to Edison Research, which aggregates vote data for ABC News and other networks (and is the source of the data in question), sometimes election officials and vote aggregators unintentionally enter vote updates one candidate at a time, rather than entering all candidates together. Other candidates’ votes are then included in a subsequent batch.

That appears to be what happened here, and in the next update from Philadelphia, Trump got about double the share of votes that he was getting in the other updates from there during that stretch of time.

It ain’t over till it’s over. I’m still waiting.

But let’s play along: say Trump loses. Does he file Trump 2024 the day after inauguration day? Or does he play golf, make appearances for cash, and play kingmaker for the next election? Or start his own network?

Sorry to jump on you, but I find it very important to address these things immediately in this climate:

ETA: I see I was beaten to the punch.

I believe it is a missing apostrophe:

“Fight against this fraud. Our voters will never forget you if you’re sheep!”

Honestly…I will not breathe a sigh of relief until Biden takes the oath in January (assuming he wins).

~20K remaining in GA, which automatically audits the results even if there is no recount order.

Where did you see that? I’ve been watching most of the day and didn’t see that. Philadelphia County mail-ins have been running 90% Biden.

NM, I see the question has been answered. I did remember seeing one drop that was only 80% Biden, maybe that’s the one that Trump’s missing votes got added to.

Have you all forgotten that he has committed multiple high-level crimes, and the only thing preventing a proper trial is that he has enablers blocking them all while he’s President? As soon as he’s out of office, he is vulnerable to decades of prison time.

Lock him up! Lock him up!

I was watching FOX just before Trump spoke. Bill Bennet, right before saying he did not believe in conspiracies, brought up this BS. I am sure right now Hannity is repeating it

Me too.

2500 vote lead in GA. maybe 5K votes in hyper-blue (Biden+71) Clayton County. Dribs and drabs elsewhere.

I highly doubt he will see any jail time.

Sr. Weasel says he’s too rich to go to jail.

I do not share your doubts. But even if so, he has a whelk’s chance in a supernova of getting anywhere close to the Presidency again after today’s madness.
