If Biden wins Georgia, he wins the election. Drunken Irishman Nov 2020 #1
They called Ga for Biden didn't they? Isn't that what I was reading. So BIden has it. LizBeth Nov 2020 #3
No. Trump still has the lead there... regnaD kciN Nov 2020 #5
Not yet. But it's trending his way. Drunken Irishman Nov 2020 #10

Ya, I just think GA will be the first one called and I want a President Biden post on FB. Lol. LizBeth Nov 2020 #20

+1. I think Ga will be called before NV, so I am here on the ready. Thanks for data. LizBeth Nov 2020 #16

He only needs WI and MI which he did win by margins that are reasonable to call dsc Nov 2020 #12
Thank you. I thought I saw threads ga was called so wondered why we werent saying President Biden LizBeth Nov 2020 #14

Ok, well my bad then. That won't work. Thanks. LizBeth Nov 2020 #17
No it was my bad dsc Nov 2020 #18
But look at post 9. What am I not getting. Isn't he saying it would be 280 and that is a win. LizBeth Nov 2020 #19
It is 280 with AZ and GA that is 256 without dsc Nov 2020 #22
Simplify. They have given Biden AZ WI MI. So, now he will have a win with one state. NV or GA or Pen LizBeth Nov 2020 #23
Yes but AZ isn't universally called yet dsc Nov 2020 #24
Ok. I may nudge on that one with my FB. who cares and I really really want to put that up. It has LizBeth Nov 2020 #25

...and we still don't know how the remaining votes will break. It's going to be very close.

So we need at least one of those two, or another state.

But I'm pretty sure we've got AZ already.

I guess it was just people calling it themselves and not official.

8. Fox called AZ for Biden

Fox News Decision Desk Dir. Arnon Mishkin is back on air. Once again, he says the Arizona call is going to stand and that there's virtually no way Trump can overcome a 100k deficit in Maricopa County ballots.

Already called states (including WI & MI) plus AZ & GA =280 EV.

Between AZ, GA and PA Biden could win all 3 but he only needs 2 or just one plus NV.

But that’s very unlikely.

I think we will win PA, could win GA, and are probably going to hold AZ (despite the premature call). I really think we are gonna win NV but the folks there sure know how to make me sweat. First they’re not gonna release their numbers, then they are, how they’re not. Gotta wait for NV until tomorrow.

The good news in NV is that the mail in vote has skewed blue. The bad news is that the lead is tiny.

AZ and GA. So he needs either just PA, or one of AZ or GA along with NV, or both of AZ and GA. This is why Biden is in good stead right now.

I think GA will be the first to declare out of the three, so I am watching that one right one. That would be a win, correct?

and the other networks do it as a group. If Fox and AP separately agree that Biden won it, then he nearly certainly did.

makes it more impactful. ABC, NBC, and CNN have a consortium so their non call is really one non call not 3.
