US Election Day 2020

This is why I think NOW is the time to invoke the 25th amendment - remove him and institutionalize him as a danger to others. I am concerned about what kind of shenanigans he will get up to in his rage over losing.

Aren’t they finally going after him for the Hatch Act? Isn’t it really to keep him occupied at this point?

Yeah. I really hope Pence makes one last attempt to redeem himself and has Trump removed then just quietly enjoys a nice Holiday in the White House until the inauguration.

People are making fancams for states that have gone blue

“Fancam” just means AMV now

And not just for states.

Recap:
Most news sources report the race at 256 to 213.
In the undecided blue column is PA 20 + NV 6 + AZ 11 + GA 16 = 53
In the undecided red column is NC 15 + AK 3 + Maine 1 more = 19

(256 + 53 = 306 ) + (213 + 19 = 232 ) = 538

Sadly, its a legit thing.... the top way of difusing any conversation you don't want to be in is to say 'How 'bout them dawgs' even among Tech fans.... and it seems to extend at least a little bit away from Georgia itself, or even if you like sportsball at all.

Also, while we'd like to know sooner rather than later, people -do- need to rest, or they make mistakes.

ETA: They've made so serious preparations for the legal challenges they were threatening well before the election, and they don't have anything like the resources necessary to mount an effective challenge in one state, let alone multiple ones.

Chaos on Trumpland -- so no change there, then

Trump unhappy with legal team's lack of major impact on election count

While President Donald Trump's legal strategy to challenge the election results is being shaped at the highest levels by familiar, experienced hands, his legal team on the ground hasn't seen the involvement of a top-tier team of the caliber George W. Bush had during the 2000 Florida recount.

I am dealing with my anger because I realize this is similar to the period after the Civil War. We all need to follow Joe’s example.

This is what everyone knew was going to happen, because the Republicans had planned it that way, precisely to cast doubt on the outcome of the elections -- Democrats were voting by post in far greater numbers than Republicans, since they took the risks posed by Covid-19 far more seriously than do most Republicans.

21.7k in PA now, and only getting higher.

Down to 30k in AZ right now, and continuing to fall. It has been claimed by some commentators that although Trump is inching closer with each new batch of vote counts, he hasn't been making the percentages he needs to completely overtake Biden by the time the votes are all counted in Arizona. No idea how true it is; I'm being fairly conservative with my hope for this election (like, remember I didn't really buy that Biden would flip Georgia or PA and he ended up flipping them both, lol) but the good news is that Arizona flipping will not change Biden winning.

I am aroused:

"There’s no organization or coordination": Trumpworld rages behind the scenes

"We rolled out Rudy Giuliani, Corey Lewandowski and Pam Bondi. You can draw your own conclusions."
