Sooooo according to this, Trump wins PA by 23 but loses MN by 7??? He wins Virginia by 13, but only wins Florida by 4?

And even with no fraud, they lose Nevada...

On that site, Biden has negative votes in some counties once you take out the voter fraud.

[DrScholl]

That site subtracts votes from Biden, but doesn't add any for Trump. Basically they are just randomly selecting places to alter vote totals.

[Gass3268]

If I am reading their website right, there are still 311,519 ballots left to count in Ohio.

Virginia gets certified today but some jurisdictions are still not >99% like Fairfax county, Arlington, Alexandria, Norfolk city are in 90%. Does anyone know why counting is slow? Where are the updated figures?

[Darthpi – Anti-Florida Activist]

Update: Biden has crossed 51% of the NPV, Trump at 47.3%. He's on track having a larger PV win than Obama '12.

NYS has still 84% counted. That's pathetic. What are they doing?

New York's elections systems are legendarily terrible, and have been for a while.

"If the Biden-Harris ticket is determined to be the winner — and, obviously, things look that way now — we'll have a very professional transition with the national security council, no doubt about it."

Oh, you think, Robert?

[Non Swing Voter]

Anecdotal but when I voted early in Fairfax county there were a lot of voters who requested absentee ballots, didn't bring their ballot and tried to vote early.  Given that most people here voted early there were probably a lot of these issues.  Not sure if they got some kind of provisional and that's what's being sorted out.  But given that we don't have much experience with early voting it's probably taking them a long time. 

Anyways, if that's the case I'd expect Biden's win margin to go up higher in places like Fairfax County where it was 50/50 in Election Day voting but more like 80/20 for Biden in early voting.  Currently Biden is at 70.4%.

Naw, some of those % numbers are old and never were that accurate anyway.  Really it's just Richmond's provitionals  and a smattering of small adjustments to be made

Interesting, so we should be getting 10K late arriving mail ins at some point (the ones that were allowed to be received up to 3 days after 11/3) I wonder when they'll add them to the totals.

That's a drop of over 11,000 votes from his 2016 majority. It will definitely fall further considering that the Democratic areas have more left to count than the Republican areas. Republican areas look mostly complete.

Note: In some cases the latest voting data may be delayed, and as more fraud is reported and analysed the fraud numbers may continue increase. We have a significant amount of voting data and fraud examples that we have received and have yet to process, so expect regular updates.

Did Trump put this website together himself? It's doing that thing where it keys in on one word and uses it ad nauseum.  

"Sure there's fraud.  Lots of fraud.  Even the smallest examples of fraud are huge examples of fraud.  All part of the fraud hoax.  All a hoax."  

Our election was hijacked by #BigFatFraud. There is no question. Congress has a duty to #ProtectOurDemocracyFromFraud & #FollowTheFactsNotTheFraud. #SAD #iWonTheElection

Uh... she was 100% right, which is why (despite Trump's best efforts) measures were put into place to prevent that from happening again, and consequently this election was far more secure.

It's ridiculous to try to "both sides" this. Hillary conceded within hours on election night despite there being much more legitimate grounds to dispute the results than this. And no one denied he did get the most votes in enough states to win, even if many voters were manipulated by Russian intelligence.

Your entire "both sides" act is ridiculous, in fact. It's REALLY getting old.

Alaska may be irrelevant on a presidential level but on a Senate level, it's important. The Senate favors rural and sparsely populated states like Alaska. Democrats would be very wise to invest into Alaska for the next 10 years. Having Alaska be a purple/swing state with at least 1 Democratic senator would be crucial.
