It somehow never ceases to amaze me how much the GOP will not quit this farce. This truly is one of the largest modern embarassments in western society of my lifetime.

Their risk/reward totally tilts in favour of them doing this. That's why they won't quit.

So basically as soon as California rolls in within the next 15m, it's over.

Narrator: To the GOP, it in fact was not over

Presumably they're the electors the Republican Party nominated at their convention in August. Both parties nominate electors and then whichever candidate carries the state has their party's chosen electors cast the votes in December.

One of them has a Trump mask on. I'm sure she will be impartial.

Pretty satisfying watching the machinery ignore Trump and his morons.

All done now except for California (woo) and Hawaii.

Good to see the machinery of both the voting and judiciary working as it should even in the face of the idiot GOP.

Looking forward to this being put to bed.

I wonder how far back this episode has set the prospects of democracy in China. Surely, they must be looking at America (and the UK) and quite rationally asking why they should want such a system. (Yes, I know there are there examples they could look at.)

China has been moving further away from democracy for years now, this is really irrelevant to that.

I don't think China or frankly many countries have ever looked at US as a model to follow for government. To me, this has always been a perception created by Americans.

55-0 for Biden as expected in California. That makes it "official".

Was just about to say, 2020's final shocker will be a California heel turn harkening back to its solidly Republican roots.

Sounds like it's time for another lawsuit. Or is now when Trump 'activates' the proud boys, and all his other dumb #### followers?
