whew

[CookieDamage]

why are some people saying Trump hit 59% in that Maricopa batch but others say 56%...

Big legal fight coming folks. AZ is likely to go to Trump.

Trump has got a second term. His supporters should be thanking Amy Coney Barrett, Samuel Alito, Clarence Thomas, Neil Gorsuch, and Brett Kavanaugh.

Not SN recommending this thinking its serious

I agree he will win in SCOTUS.

I think that the Supreme Court is going to throw out all the mail in ballots that were cast due to “national security” and “law and order” reasons if I had to guess.

I agree. Trump wins AZ then GA, PA are challenged.

It is possible that Wisconsin, Michigan, Nevada, Minnesota, Virginia, New Mexico, Oregon, Rhode Island, Maine, and New Hampshire are given to Donald Trump after the Supreme Court intervenes as well.

Don't forget New York!

You know New Jersey will invade and annex Manhattan

Hallelujahhh

Likelihood of a brief Pence presidency with the aim of getting a pardon?

Wouldn't Trump need to get convicted of things to get a pardon?

[CookieDamage]

Too much celebrating considering Trump is still president and the election is only legally binding if those currently in power allow it to be--and they likely won't

Yall really can't stop doomering and driving up your own blood pressure.

There's one thing to say "im still worried" and "yall are wrong and its likely the election will be stolen". just loud and unfounded confidence.

How's AZ looking for us? Biden still looking good?

Friendly reminder that the electoral college is still the dumbest system around for electing a President.

You speak facts. Weird how so many Americans care more about corn than people.

California shouldn't dictate to the other 49 states who gets to be president.

This argument is still made with an EC mindset. California isn't dictating to anyone. Millions of PEOPLE in California (as well as New York, Illinois, Texas, West Virginia, Iowa, Alabama, etc.) are VOTING for their candidate. The abolition of the EC would make these borders irrelevant mostly when it comes to elections.

So when are Arizona and Georgia's certification deadlines?

How did Biden do so great in New England, yet mediocre in Upstate NY and the Upper Midwest? They were both settled by Yankees and have a similar political culture. If you are winning WWC Maine and RI, you should be winning Macomb and Bay counties in MI and the Driftless Area in WI.

Biden's CT 20 point margin was insane, I do remember people being nervous about the state long term, as the eastern part of the state is WWC and trended Trump in 2016.

Wait till NY is done counting

[CookieDamage]

Yeah when you look at the map and the PV margin and compare to 2016 it certainly feels like Biden had a pretty solid victory here. But when you actually look at the math (and yes, the math is what matters here) and look at the margins, he won it by the skin of his teeth.

ermm i disagree. it wasnt a blowout but he certainly won by more than trump did

Ok, how? It's not clear to me.

His margin of victory in PA and MI are larger than Trump's were in 2016. His margin in WI is almost identical to Trump 2016. Plus, he flipped two red states. Like... his win is bigger than Trump's

[CookieDamage]

Not them mixing up Richmond County and Richmond City...

Will NY be done before their deadline?
