(436 posts)NV GA AZ are all going to be stupid close. GA is wrapping it up today. NV and AZ who knows.
Biden doesn't need any of these states. PA gets it done. Every analysis I've seen shows Biden winning PA by more than 100k.

(2,166 posts)According to MSNBC:
GA will have it done by the end of the day. They have 60k ballots to count in Fulton County (heavy blue). GA right now has Trump up by only 18k. (this looks good, IMO).
In PA, Biden is behind by 140k votes and they have hundreds of thousands of votes yet to count (they didn't give an exact number, unfortunately, but if, according to the NY Times there are 6.3million votes recorded and 9% left so that's 567k left). In Philadelphia, Biden is set to gain 80k votes (if he continues the percent he's been getting). And they said he may make up the rest from other counties. I really hate how vague this is. I can't say either way unless we know the actual numbers and stats.
PA update (11:44am EST) :According to MSNBC, Trump is up by 135.6k, 91% vote is counted, they went to court to get Trumpers in to watch the count so counting is halted. NO mail in ballots are being counted. A prediction from the Biden people in PA says Biden will carry the state by 80k votes.
In AZ, in Maricopa County - Biden is up by 68k votes. 86% of the vote is in (400k ballots left to count for the state); the batches they've been getting are favoring Trump, but not enough to catch up (at this rate). According to the AZ democrats, Trump needs a rate of 60% to catch up, but it seems he won't get that. He will get over 50%, but not the 60% he would need. They're saying the batches won't be all out until 9pm tonight. (shoot me please).

(14,853 posts)Ballot counting has halted in Philadelphia while awaiting a legal dispute over Republican yahoos demanding access to the counting room.
Maybe a positive over these delays is that Trump will linger in this country and not escape before facing his own legal troubles?

(15,220 posts)I worry that these delays are in order to give Rudy time to pull a fast one.
They cheat, you know!!! (Preaching to the choir, of course).
