Wait wut?
Semi-serious question. What are the odds the ballots get lost/damaged/building set on fire today?
Ballots can't be scanned, missing dates, people who got the wrong first ballots. So apparently they're taking today to fix it.
Not likely. After 2000 I don't think Dems would allow Republicans to do that again. They already have their lawyers waiting. As long as they count the mail-ins ONLY, Republicans really don't have a case.
The results were slated to come out on Friday all along. Why change things now & potentially risk violating the newly changed laws?
Maybe US could do with little less freedom sometimes. Ridiculous that they cant have a common directive on how counts should proceed. There is no need to make this a multi day circus.
ok, this makes sense then.
What is the remaining ballot number in PA?
Each network is all over the place in reporting.

What would happen if the building did set on fire? Seems like something a Trump supporter would do.
People think this will be wrapped up by the end of Friday?
Proud Boys, stand by.
Careful... 'loose lips sink ships' ...never know whose reading this, don't give them ideas!!
Yeah, most of the controversy and uncertainty could be eliminated if there were federal laws and guidelines on how to conduct the election.
Well that makes more sense. Just immediate reaction is that its Trump related so I guess him questioning the very core of our democracy is having its effect on me too. Fk I hate what this guy and his enablers have done to this country.
John King on fire right now!
I almost did that, but I didn't want to interfere with his eviction proceedings against John Knight.
It would never happen. State's rights etc. To determine when and how to run their own elections. It's annoying especially when GOP legislatures purposely denied allowing the counts to be started earlier even though they were asked in several of these states.
And lets not forget those jokers were successful in a few states to stop counting sooner than the states themselves intended to. That alone makes their crying so disgusting.
But then how would you turn it into a multi day fest of analysis, commentary and advertising? Have you never watched an NFL game... America lives for this.
What a dick.
Ehh Sevilla, Valencia, Biden, Bernie, it's all the same.
He does have some skeletons in his closet, including unabashed support for those accused and convicted in the My Lai massacre as 'just following orders'.
Did @calodo2003 get band?
I may have been in an election daze, but I'm pretty sure baz predicted a civil war yesterday.

Yeah, Kings of Leon judging by his post.
So legitimate question - does anyone now think that Trump being so defeatist before the election and even attacking Fox even more than before was all a ruse to play on voters minds with the thought "we can't let this guy lose, let's give him something to be happy about - look how nice he is"?
Did you read through his Twitter thread? I think it's pretty compelling!
Just to test your theory, I had a look at the population size vs. 2016 democrat vote, and as a loose indicator of his point, included the % of african americans in each county. Population looks like it plays some role but not quite as much.
And without having the data to compare, it looks like that map from 1900 looks about as predictive as any other.
That was my initial worry as well for what it's worth. You're right, the feeling is bloody awful.
Im still crossing my legs
Post dick, get bandPosting nudity (??).Looks like it lasts the day, at the longest.

First time I heard people getting super excited about ad breaks in Super Bowl, I gave a "WTF" expression.
