Agree that FOX News was good last night.

But on a normal day do they even report the news?

Anyone else find it interesting that a US presidential election could be clinched by casino workers?

Yep, no funny business going on there.

They are obviously hoping that they can stall the outcome to give Trump time to prepare legal cases. It won't matter though as Arizona and Nevada should be in the bag for Biden.

So how long before one of the Trump crazies goes and shoots up some places, or makes an attempt on Biden?

Ballots marked with Sharpies will be counted in Arizona, election officials say

https://www.cnn.com/politics/live-ne...6f8eb5bb341939

Quote:
Election officials in Arizona are tamping down viral claims online that voters who used Sharpie pens on their ballots wouldn’t have their votes counted.

The confusion, fueled largely on social media, has prompted Secretary of State Katie Hobbs to tweet: “IMPORTANT: If you voted a regular ballot in-person, your ballot will be counted, no matter what kind of pen you used (even a Sharpie).” In Maricopa County, officials said Sharpies are actually the preferred method of marking ballots.

But the state attorney general’s office said it will look into “hundreds of voter complaints regarding Sharpies at polling locations.”

More precisely, it's down to a 65,000 vote lead for Trump. It's going to be really, really close - even closer than Wisconsin.

Things will really have gone off the rails if they end up in the SCC (Supreme Court of Canada)

Is that how it works, you can just claim the victory then you get it?

In that case I declare that they actually voted for me.

NYT margin in PA is now down to 5.1%.

That's a margin of 308,114 votes.

Or at least fundraise for legal costs. And then only kinda make a show of a legal challenge, but really just pocketing the cash.

I think people were quick to jump on Nate Cohn and the needle last night because it had some pretty wild swings, but it's gonna end up looking mighty accurate.
