I'm not sure why people would expect Carlson and Hannity to be anyone other than who they normally are.

But the Fox coverage today has been far, far more biased towards the GOP than it was yesterday. Most of it has been dedicated to the pending legal challenges, and the guests they've had on to talk about them have mostly been accusing the democrats of whining and emphasizing that the rule of law is important and otherwise attempting to sell them as a normal part of the process.

Man it's just frightening listening to Hannity. Very frightening that a large portion of the US population watches that and fully agrees with it.

By design. From the Fox News propaganda stream, to ridiculously gerrymandered districts, to the incredibly undemocratic senate, to the electoral college, the entire US political system is broken. The republican presidential nominee has only won the national popular vote once in the last 20 years, yet they've been in power for over half that time. It's a tyranny of the minority in America, and republicans have been doing everything they can to make it stay that way

Is Arizona really that close? If every county's remaining votes have a similar split to what they've had so far, Biden would gain 20K votes over Trump. Is the idea that Maricopa is supposed to move towards Trump?

I think Trump wins AZ if he collects 60% of remaining votes.

Yes. The idea is that the outstanding votes are absentee ballots that were delivered on election day, which appear to be republican-leaning ballots. The 75,000 or so that were just released were about 59% republican. If the rest of them are also split that way, then it would be more or less a tie in AZ.

Sure, but is there any reason to think that'd be the case? Something like 85% of the remaining votes are from counties that Biden is currently leading in.

He just won 59% of the last batch of 75,000 votes.

Republicans have a history of mail in voting in Arizona and are well orgianized doing it. Party registration of the Election Day mail ins favours republicans and the first dump that came in was Trump +18

I might be dumb but do you have a link to the AP map tracker? I've been using NPRs and CNNs but I want to see APs and I can't find it.

Just google "live election map USA" and you can see it actually in Google. I've just been using that and the NY Times state maps.

Yeah, no, that's definitely wrong. There are about 500,000 votes out there. It's nowhere near 99% in.
