Don't know if it's been pointed out already, but Edison Research now projecting both Georgia senate seats will go to a runoff election in January. Democrats need both to give the VP the tiebreaker vote.

So an election worker in Georgia is in hiding after a video clip of him throwing away a small slip of paper was suggested as proof that he was throwing away a legal ballot was spread among conspiracy theorists.

I finally have faith, that this will end well.
I think if there is one thing I learned watching the past 4 years is how damaging blind party loyalty is. It definitely made me more cognizant of my own tolerance to put up with BS from parties I supported in the past, but not any more.

I just read that one of the founders of The Lincoln Project thinks Tucker will be the GOP candidate for the 2024 election. Holy @*!% if that happens.

At first it was “Biden’s been in office 47yrs and done nothing”, now it’s “Who is this Man”? His life is pretty much an open book, just ridiculous.

His elevator does not go to the top floor.

The Arizona count is looking more and more sketchy as we go. Every time a new tranche is counted, not significantly closing the gap, they stumble on even more ballots that increases the number available. This has happened multiple times. Went from 389,660, to 524,269, to 1,038,753 a couple days ago. That I could kind of understand.
But they went from 245,859 to 234,544 to 248,463 nine hours ago. Then from 213,113 to 212,909 to 258,099 two hours ago. Every time Trump starts falling off the pace he needs to win the state, new ballots are found and added to the counting. Arizona has already counted a record 3,225,905 of a supposed 3,258,940 ballots cast, which should leave 33,305 left to count, beyond the 36,816 advantage Biden is holding. Yet the numbers Arizona is now reporting is still 252,339 ballots yet to count. Their math is not consistent. The last update has more votes for senate being cast than those cast for president! Something is bull#### in Arizona.

My first thought is good, Tucker Carlson would get slaughtered by any half-witted opponent when it comes to debates. Carlson is fine when he is preaching to the choir, but is easily made a fool when someone actually opposes him (which rarely happens on Fox). I am also willing to bet that he has many skeletons in the closet.

But I also know that celebrity worship is a real thing, especially in the U.S.

You know you sound just as ridiculous as some republicans in Michigan, Georgia, Pennsylvania, and Wisconsin. The arguments you are making are the same.

I feel like they can call PA at this point. There's no red counties left and no indication that anything will change the trend.

What the hell is Alaska’s problem? They’ve got like sixty people. Just chalk up those 3 electoral votes to Donnie and mark one more state finished.

They don’t process mail in ballots until the last day to receive them. Same as North Carolina.

So I saw earlier that Biden was to speak tonight, but it looks like he hasn't yet? Is he waiting for a call? Is the reason for the delay known?
