Georgia

Under Georgia law, a candidate can request a recount if the margin is less than 0.5 percent of votes cast. That request must be made within two days of results being certified.


Undoubtedly going this way. Georgia the new Florida.

I wonder if Biden wins Pennsylvania and lost Georgia he’d ask for a recount or would he just let the Ossoff race go to a runoff?

Looks like Trump made a dent into the AZ Biden lead, but that same trend wouldn’t be enough for the rest of the votes. Trump needs a much better batch tomorrow. Seems like AZ is updating like 140k votes a day.

Only the legal ballots should count.


Correct, and they are all legal, you have nothing that shows otherwise

I have no idea if they are or aren't and neither does anyone else here. I have no opinion either way at the moment.

The thing to know about AZ is that they have being doing mail in voting for a very long time so Republicans are comfortable in that state using this method regardless of how much Trump criticized it.

If they're used to all this, why is it taking them so long to count?

He needs to keep getting 59% like he’s been doing in a heavily Democratic area. And I think we have to remember that the campaigns probably have district level trends. Ruben Gallego was on tv saying that there are votes in his district and another district next to him that’s heavily blue. It could all be a bluff but there’s no guarantee that Trump will keep at the pace he needs to pull it off.

Way higher volumes than expected. You have to assume a lot of states didn’t necessarily budget for this. The Democrats passed an election security bill that increased funding for all elections, guess who blocked it.......

Biden will most likely pass Trump in GA at midnight, when the next batch is released.

Trump missed the mark by 4 points in the last batch.

Anyhow ... I understand that Trump is filing meaningless and endless lawsuits to delay the inevitable. If that's what you want to wait for, then be my guest. Trump is done. Time to face facts.

FYI, the AP is the hands down the most informed news outlet on these election issues due to the simple fact that they have the most boots on the ground.

I don't ever just, give up. In anything.

Anyway, we'll see. It's not like I'm on pins and needles it's all out of my control. I don't worry about stuff I can't do something about myself. Makes no sense to do so.


dude you were gloating on election night...give it a rest
