It's been hilarious reading Dave's Twitter feed cause a lot of it has been things like this, where Biden is losing counties, but far better than Hillary did.

This is ridiculous.
FL law is to count all advanced votes in advance. PA law is to not. Maybe Congress needs to pass the Jeb Bush Election Law for all states.

Here's a great line from a hearing in Pennsylvania regarding Trump's injunction to stop the count. Diamond is the Judge.

The government won't but one of Trump or Bannon's deranged followers might. Fauci already requires a security detail and receives death threats. This doesn't help.

Also 72.7 million votes for Biden. He definitely was the one and only choice for the Dems.

It's not the federal government people are concerned about, it's the deranged Trump supporters out there who would follow through on the comment that concern people. Someone who used to work in the White House needs to realize their words hold certain cache and as a result need to speak rationally. That type of talk is seditious IMO.

One of the reasons these numbers matter so much right now though is that the Election Day vote in those counties was already reported, so all of that improvement in his margin over Clinton is coming in now.

I mean it’s easy for ME to make predictions (because literally nothing is at stake) but... Biden is winning Pennsylvania.

I get that.

But that is exactly my point. Florida found a way to count mail in ballots in a quick and efficient manner. It is unacceptable that other states cannot do the same.

But regardless of the early counting, it is still completely stupid that they can't count 100k ballots in less than a hour.

If it needs more people, hire more people.

Also, aren't the mail in ballots verified with a computer? Or is some dude actually sitting there are making checks on a ledger?

A new update of around 37,000 ballots just came in from Pennsylvania, of which Biden won about two-thirds. This reduced Trump’s raw vote margin to about 78,000 votes, or 1.2 percentage points (50.0 percent to 48.8 percent). Most of that was 30,000 votes from Cumberland County just west of Harrisburg, the state capital. While Cumberland is Republican-leaning — Trump leads there 55 percent to 44 percent now — Biden won nearly 70 percent of this tranche of ballots, which look to have made up most of the county’s remaining mail votes. Heavily Republican Blair County (home to Altoona) also reported more than 5,000 votes, but Trump only won a narrow majority of those.

I'll never understand why Trump's people call him a fighter?

The guy literally was a draft dodger because he's a coward. He's always been a coward, always will be.

He's not a fighter, he's a narcissistic man-baby. He's no fighter. He just lashes out when he's scared.

Quite amused by this superb troll back at Trump, using his own words from months ago.
