whatever the result of this election, it’s been shown now for decades that disinformation is a powerful tool, and social media has made us more vulnerable to it.

i’m more worried about the senate at this point. a biden presidency with a mcconnell senate could be an utter clusterfuck. no stimulus, no infrastructure bill, just more obstructionism, and midterms in 2 years.

Mitch getting in again for me is actually worse than Trump getting another term. Absolute wretched scum that guy.

I slept for 1.5 hours. I’m quite possibly losing my mind.

I need to see Michigan, Nevada and Wisconsin turn blue. For the love of fuck, please. Please.

CNN claims that Biden has won Wisconsin
And he is very close to winning Arizona

h8kurdt · 11.04.2020, 02:42 PM

Wisconsin? More like WINsconsin! AMIRITE?!

Possibly......but from what I’m seeing at 2:00 PM CST, Arizona Democrats have yet to acknowledge victory.

Well, they have already counted more Wisconsin ballots than they have registered voters. The “projected” Wisconsin win for Joe Biden is less than once percent, well within the rules for a standard recount.

I placed “projected” within parentheses because they are still in the process of counting ballots that far exceed Wisconsin registered voters, so feel free to attach your AMIRITE horse before the actual cart......just a fair warning that it could end up in a horrible crash.

Trying to turn over 20,000 votes is a big ask, man.

_tunic_ · 11.04.2020, 04:46 PM

I was a bit too premature on Arizona, it's still not official for CNN. It's claimed by the app I'm using from AP.
But Michigan is now claimed by CNN

!@#$%! · 11.04.2020, 08:46 PM

everything that’s not called is premature. and even then.

it ain’t over till it’s over

patience.... but keep punching

Source for this (possibly not a tweet or facebook post without any source for the data)?
I just made a search and found only “fact checks” that, no matter who will end up winning, proof this is fake news made up mixing data with 2018 midterms elections.

h8kurdt · 11.05.2020, 04:29 AM

Trump drones standing outside the counting stations with guns and general attitude of douchebagginess to stop the vote ain't half something.

STOP THE VOTE! (but only in States where we're leading pls)

No, I cannot provide the source. I heard the discussion on the radio yesterday morning (believe it was an AP reporter) and then I heard a blurb at the top of the hour ABC news break. However, this AP story mentions Biden winning by less than 1% and the upcoming recount.

Biden narrowly wins Wisconsin; Trump to call for a recount

As we approach 0333 AM here in Texas, the Arizona lead Joe Biden thought he had when he went to bed last night won’t be the same when he wakes up in a few hours......and still not one Arizona Democrat has proclaimed victory.

_tunic_ · 11.05.2020, 07:42 AM

In all remaining states, the gap is narrowing. See the graphs titled "Tracking the vote count" on the following pages:
- Pennsylvania
- Georgia
- North Carolina
- Arizona
- Nevada

I'm ignoring Alaska it will go to Trump anyway

This a false claim, at least so says USA Today's fact checker and AP News

EXPLAINER: Why AP called Arizona for Biden

Quote:

The AP called the race at 2:50 a.m. EST Wednesday, after an analysis of ballots cast statewide concluded there were not enough outstanding to allow Trump to catch up.

So AP has made the call, CNN still says it's too narrow a gap

The Soup Nazi · 11.05.2020, 08:59 AM

Fox’s Arizona Call for Biden Flipped the Mood at Trump Headquarters

The Fox News decision left the president fuming, and his team complaining. Then he began casting aspersions on other states’ vote counts.

!@#$%! · 11.05.2020, 10:38 AM

when trumpet screams “STOP THE COUNT” in all-caps on twitter... do you hear something like this?
