2020 Presidential Election Results & Exit Polls commentary thread

[Alben Barkley]

#'s still look good for Biden in GA, but at this point it's really just all gravy (assuming PA flips.)  All GA does at this point is lull the winning side into a false sense of complacency about it going into 2022/24; the results there are essentially going to be a tie. 

GA is important because all of the officials involved in setting the rules for the election there are Republicans.  If Biden wins GA, that plainly defeats the rigging claim.  

Or, Kemp rigged it for Biden because he wanted to run for reelection in a Biden midterm.

I'm not saying this is true nor do I believe it, but Kemp isn't dumb. He knows his chances would be next to zero with Trump still in office. I don't think he's losing any sleep if Biden wins GA.

Oh for F—K’s sake!

Quick reminder that Joe Biden is going to win a higher percentage of total votes than Reagan in 1980.

Sure feels like a lack of a mandate and effective reinforcement of Trumpism in here.

This saddens me because I think he can win and hes going to be even more senile in 2024.

If he runs against Biden again, I think he will win, because Biden will be a very unsuccessful President.

[BudgieForce]

I think people are really underestimating how popular Joe Biden could be as president.

[MplsDem]

Looks like some Georgia vote came in per DDHQ. ~15,000 lead.

Perdue at 50.00% exactly.

[rhg2052]

Perdue below 50.0% !!!

Are you happy with how MS went at all levels, Del Tachi? We don't have a ton of posters from there and you're the one I think of when I think of the state hehe. 

I didn't really see any surprises out of MS.  Mississippi has actually gotten slower at counting votes over the past 3-4 election cycles, which is embarrassing when states like FL dump so much of their vote so quickly.  Turnout was big and lines were long in MS, which means we really need 2 weeks of early voting.

In terms of actual results, it looks like were not going to get any county flips from 2016.  Most of the outstanding vote still out is in Hinds/Jackson, so Trump's margin should come down 1-3pts from where he's at as of this morning.

Tucker Carlson is the future of a post-Trump GOP (regardless of this election outcome).

That should be sufficient for Biden.

[Podgy the Bear]

I think Trump is preparing for a rematch with Biden in 2024.

Not going to happen.  Trump is obese, and he is a perfect set up for every associated medical condition that will likely spell his demise before 2024.

Yeah, he should run as long as he can, before he gets persecuted.

Can't run for President from a NY state prison.

[wbrocks67]

Joe is at 488K in Philly. There is *at minimum* 100K left to at least *report* in Philly.

 No matter what happens in Georgia it won't be called for a while because we're in recount territory. I find it hard to imagine whoever is losing won't pay for a recount since it's not automatically done by the state. I think in the past the trailing candidate has usually payed for a recount.

Shut the  up you fascist tyrant

You are against free speech?

emailking is using his free speech in the way he sees fit.

[Buffalo Mayor Young Kim]

What reported in Georgia?

Allot fo stuff, but mostly Perdue is going to a run-off and Biden looks on track to win

[n1240]

New votes in Philly, Biden wins batch of 13k by about 11k, at least 87k left in the county to count.

Huh? It was 140K a few hours ago and they haven't really added that much more since then. Unless we are back to having portions *PROCESSED* but not *ADDED TO RESULTS*

Aka, 40K more have been counted but not added to results yet since this AM

I am just using the ballots reported count from the state dashboard and subtracting by # of absentee ballots included in the Philly total. I think there is probably a few more mail ballots not actually reported to the state though

My personal ambition to stay in office and evade punishment for any crimes means that the election results WILL be challenged! There's plenty of proof I'm in it for myself and myself alone! Myself will win! Myself first, America Last!
