Election results discussion thread (and sadly the inevitable aftermath)

What Crimson said. Trump also had a 4 pt lead in Georgia at this percent.

I'm using AP atm, could be very wrong. GA has a 2 point lead with 94% counted. That's also a 120K vote lead.

Georgia and NC are definitely too close to call right now. Following it in real time, Trump's at 50% at both of them. That doesn't have to be conspiracy.

Also, am I missing something? Trump's claiming victory, while simultaniously claiming fraud. Which way is it?

His narrative is any mail in ballots have to be assumed fraudulent, so with the ballots cast right now, and Trump ahead basically everywhere, that's all the legitimate ballots and thus he's won.

Some states counted mail-ins before the in-person ballots, though.

You should figure out which ones before you start speculating.

GA's behind on mail ins due to a burst water main in one major county and some computer problems in another

 

[PsychedelicDiamond]

WI counted 92% of the votes according to AP. You think 8% would flip WI? Trump has a 120k lead. I SWEAR this narrative of "Trump will throw ballots to the bin" is engineered

Really? Strikes me as exactly the kind of thing he would do.

I wasn't implying that, though. I was implying that what crimson5pheonix said isn't true because some states already counted mail-in ballots.

But not the rust belt states that are currently sitting at 4-14% in Trumps favor.

Well, I know for a fact my state stopped counting the mail-ins to count today's in-person votes. Also, wow, both presidential and senate races went blue for us, neat.

EDIT: Us as in AZ.

Yes, and you're wrong.

What a time to be alive. Trump gets up on stage and thanks his people for voting for him, but then accuses everyone else of "disenfranchising" (like it's some crime to vote against him or something).

But the best part was Pence getting up after him and saying how voting is everyone's democratic right, but apparently not if you just happened to vote at the wrong time or for the wrong person...

Give us time, we gotta kill each other first.

No need to give too much time, though.

Well, you got the guns for it, that's for sure.

I'm sure we have more than enough to arm everybody with guns for a global battle royale. Cap 2020 with a bang.

Looking forward to eating that chicken, then.

I think that’s 92% reporting, not 92% of votes. It’s... stupid. We live in a stupid country. NYT has 17% of the vote remaining.

Wait, what. I don't get it Revnak. WHY ARE YOU GUYS SO VAGUE?!?
