So, is Morning Joke telling us that networks are in cahoots with GOP legislatures and Orange Gumby?

[deminks]

to drag out vote counting? Giving Gumby time to find a decent lawyer, get QAnon to insert a bunch of fake ballots, and order his rabid minions to start a war? If it bleeds, it leads.

There are several rants about not calling the races among his berating of the democratic party this morning.

If someone calls Nevada, it's all over for Gumby 'cause Arizona has already been called.

1. This is turning into a scandal.

It is absolutely ridiculous.

[coti]

14. Yeah, it's freaking surreal.

They're like abuse survivors who are psychologically unable to see a way to get themselves out of a situation. Their anxiety makes them continue to search for reasons not to go through with it.

[catbyte]

2. Actually, Arizona has only been called by Fox & AP. Everybody else has Biden at 253.

3. Why anyone gives any thought to him being credible

or bothers to watch him (or the rest of cable noise) is beyond me?

4. It's not the media

I can tell by how they're talking, that both Joe Scarborough and Steve Kornacke are ready for this to be done with. The problem is the states aren't providing them any new info for the decision desks to make a call.

7. PA could have been called a day ago in fact it was by Decision Desk HQ.

The major networks just want to drag this out.

11. What states have enough votes for Biden that will keep Trump from catching him?

[Statistical]

12. That has never been that standard for any state in any election in modern political history.

Hell it wasn't the standard for this election on election night.

[marie999]

13. Biden needs to have a bigger lead in this election than in a normal election.

I am not worried about Trump, I am worried about his followers.

15. 35,000

Evidently when Biden gets a lead of 35,000 votes in Pennsylvania it'll be called. It had been 20,000. So, evidently something came along for them to change that number.

[marie999]

17. CNN just called for Biden in PA and the election.

[marie999]

18. CNN just called for Biden in PA and the election.

[Silent3]

8. What has already provided is more than enough, however

We're well past any reasonable mathematical doubt of Trump winning in PA or NV. Even Georgia and Arizona are pretty damn likely.

[still_one]

5. He is suggesting that the networks are being intimidated by trump. I am not sure about that

[Just_Vote_Dem]

6. Is this the same thing that happened when they declared for Trump in 2016?

Some states were a lot closer then, I think? Did it take this long? I don't remember.

[Statistical]

9. It did not take this long. The networks had already called it at like 3am the morning after.

By 4am they were freaking out that Clinton hadn't yet made a concession speech.

[Just_Vote_Dem]

10. Thank you. n/t

[beachbumbob]

16. No collusion, it takes time and the networks don't name the winner,

the name a presumptive winner and at this moment, it's not possible with outstanding votes left to be counted
