NEW: I’m told that President Trump can’t get his messaging straight on counting the votes because he doesn’t understand what “stop the count” means. On a call this morning, an adviser had to explain to him that if they stopped counting votes right now, he would lose the election.

Or maybe Harry Reid stopped them. I actually think my money's on Reid.

if neither candidate gets 270 EVs, the House decides the winner, in which case Trump would prevail. (Each state delegation gets one vote, & there are more GOP delegations then Democratic ones.)
