I haven't read the whole thread. Why is this taking so long in small states when it's been done in bigger states? Lack of resources? Archaic procedural rules?
You should really start at page 1 to understand. If you start now you might have caught up by the time NV finishes their count.
 
Important to note what's NOT happening with the GOP.

- Moscow Mitch is NOT feeding him.
- The senate in general are not feeding him
- Even the nut McCarthy is subdued.

They also are NOT pushing back against his BS, yet. Probably waiting for the counts and the courts.

I bet a bit of cash on him being removed before the inauguration yesterday. The dude thought I was crazy.
 
PA sec of state was at CNN saying they’re aiming to finish by today, local time.
Yeah, but then they need to aggregate the count on a computer. Then they need to print that excel file as a .pdf and save it on a floppy disk. Then the floppy disk needs to be transported to the basketball arena of a Division II college team, where officials check the numbers on the .pdf against the screenshot of a piece of paper they receive from officials via ICQ messenger... or probably something that takes the same amount of time and we'll be here again tomorrow in the middle of the day receiving votes in batches of 3k.

Agreed, you need to experience the lead up to, and heart-pounding occurrence, of the great 2020 printer ink incident. I still am having flashacks.

Hey, that was the same way Brown County in Wisconsin did it!
 
Pennsylvania’s secretary of state, Kathy Boockvar, said there are about 500,000 ballots yet to be counted and told CNN “we definitely could” know the winner by the end of Thursday.
 
Not to be pedantic, but at best he will be President Elect, which is a HUGE difference. Cheeto will be able to wreck an enormous amout of damage for the next few months.

It's fecking scary. He's going to literally be unhinged.

The BBC report: "Ballot counting in Philadelphia has resumed amid a legal tug-of-war in Pennsylvania.

The tally was paused earlier to accomodate a court order saying that Trump campaign observers must be allowed to stand within six feet of officials counting and reviewing ballots."

The sheer desperation of Trumpites shows here ... as if standing close to the official counters is going to make the slightest difference. I guess they must think that officials are using card-trick sleight of hand to stuff pro-Trump ballots up their sleeves.

Only hope I have is that from having lived the DC thing for a bit is that Biden will have tons of boots on the ground laying the groundwork and monitoring things, the associations will have already started pandering to the incoming administration and even shifting staff to do that well, career staff and even elected and appointed officials at agencies and departments will be saying feck you to Trump when asked or told to do something. DC is always in motion.

remember when there was a big stink made about Clinton staffers removing the W from keyboards when GWB won? That is going to look quaint...actually it does anyways.
 
The Dems are really shambolic. Went into the election a +7 generic ballot and managed to somehow lose house seats.

In fairness, I’d just accept it and let them do it and just carry on as normal. Logically, by giving into this, it significantly negates any future litigation regarding any counting fraud? I mean it wouldn’t stop Trump filing anything but would probably help the case against him.
 
Loser @nimic counting @Red Dreams posts BEFORE the election. Very sad and very illegal. RIGGED ELECTION!

It's so insulting to the election officials, some of whom will have been doing this job for years. It's Trump saying "I'm a cheat so I assume everyone else is also a cheat."

All the more reason why those runoff senate seats are so critical. The Rs have shown its better to have Senate and the Presidency, than the House. I agree its disappointing though. Maybe dems should start shouting the election is being stolen too. Pelosi needs to be removed though.
 
Ffs. Apparently Nevada will not have any more info today, 51K or so tomorrow, with the rest on the weekend?

Like, I get that it’s a challenge and everything and the process made by laws doesn’t make it easy etc. Etc. But it’s a bit farcical now how long it’s taking.

Bear in mind the polls were off, so they didn't actually have that much of a generic ballot lead.
