Magic votes? More like legit lawful mail-in votes.
Where’s the data or sources behind your claim that they’re magic? And if they were magic, why weren’t the 2016 votes magically for your candidate?
The evidence is out there you fruitcake. You have your credentials do your own research.
Yes. Each state publishes their official registered voter counts. The number of votes for each state has come in well below those official counts. There’s no steal going on, and most of y’all are just parroting conspiracy theories from easily refuted sources.
Lol. No fraud here. Why there is no fraud ever! Anderson Cooper told me so! Most wide spread use of mail in ballots EVER in the highest turnout election in history with absolutely no fraud. Jeez—-Talk about parroting unsupportable narratives bereft of proof. I suppose there is no such thing as credit card and debit cards fraud in your little fantasy world. Lol...No way for that to happen either because we have “safeguards” in place.
Good Lord. Remember when common sense used to be common? People went to jail right there in Philly just this year for ballot box stuffing. So, if it has already happened THIS YEAR in another election, how can you and your buddies at CNN claim for months that there is “no proof” fraud can happen? Its a completely unsubstantiated narrative brought to you by the same people who told 3 years of lies wrapped around a fake Russian Collusion narrative.
Is there fraud in this election? Absolutely. The only question is—“Is it substantial enough to effect the election?” Possibly. Typically, I’m not too big on conspiracy theories, but Pennsylvania could have put this easily to bed by allowing easy access for observers. So, if people are suspicious, that’s on poor behavior of key election officials—not those who are now suspicious.
Why would they do that unless they were cheating? No reason.
The question is how much.

Biden is just a footnote. The real damage that has been done is to destroy the public's faith in the election process. That may have been the real goal anyway. Where elections are concerned, we are now no different than some third world banana republic.
Exactly. I'm really concerned.

Yep.
How is it that Trump has 2.448 million votes in Georgia yet Perdue has 2.449 and Biden has 100,000 more votes than Ossof?
Are you claiming people fraudulently went in an created votes for Biden but then also voted for Perdue?
In a race that could flip the balance of the Senate? They choose to gin up fake ballots to KEEP a Republican senator just to get Joe in?
C'mon man.

maybe it is for now...military ballots still to count and...
in PA they counted ballots that came in after 11/3 and those without postmarks based on the PA Scotus changing PA Law.
The PA Scotus changing an election law created by the PA Legislature appears to be unconstitutional. The power to make election law is detailed in the Constitution not once but twice to be an enumerated power o the Legislature not the Judiciary.
Any ballots received after 11/3 or without postmark were supposed to be set aside.
Guessing the PA Scotus decision will go to the US Scotus to determine if they overstepped their authority.
At the end of counting, Biden will be up well over 100,000 votes. The military isn't going to close the gap on that.
And, NO votes are being included that were received after 11/3 as of now.

The thing about Kamala is she was such a horrible candidate that the whack job Dems didn’t even want her. 3%. Now wait until she and the mental vegetable tank the economy with their bowing down to China and green deal. Many of the low budget losers who voted for these 2 dumb fks will be much worse off under them. That’s why I’m saying Trump needs to do his part to keep the Republican base energized.
Well, the short term goal is to flip the House in 2022, since historically the President's part loses a good deal in the midterm.
IF they can keep the Senate AND IF Biden (assuming he is still alive) is a compromiser like he sometimes claims he is, maybe some **** can get done that benefits a good portion of the political middle.

My daughter asked me if I was upset by the results. Told her that the main difference between Republicans and dems is that for us politics are a part of our life, something you have to be aware of, but it’s not defining. For dems, it is their life because They believe government determines their outcomes. They don’t understand that they can win personally even with the other party in power.
I just hope they get the process cleaned up some in the next 4 years, or better said, don’t let the dems create even more chaos. I just want a system where every person who is legally eligible and decides to participate has their one vote counted.
Well said.

Sure... No, what you will see is Biden's desire to reinsert America into the greater global trade network as the "market of last resort". China will gain and then eclipse us sooner than later due to every other nation kowtowing to China for their mythical market access. Middle class will die due to the little gains in mfg jobs during Trump's time in office being reversed. We'll go all in on the global warming initiatives amongst the international community - which in reality will be a wealth transfer scheme to "balance the scales" among the 3rd world nations.... Meanwhile, middle class will be squeezed due to 1) unfettered illegal immigration putting pressure on wages for middle class (wtf do you think wages stagnated for over a decade???) plus the resumption of manufacturing exiting the US in favor of cheaper (slave) labor in China and other nations who will replicate China's slave practices.
Can't wait...

RE: *** Official 2020 Election Thread ***
I just looked out of curiosity since I live in Ohio. In 2020 Trump got 233,000 more votes than he did in 2016. Biden got 209,000 more than Hillary got in 2016. In 2016 Hillary won 8’of 88 counties. Biden won 7.
It amazing how different Ohio is compared to its neighbors in Michigan and PA, obviously. It’s also a big difference that Ohio is apparently much, much better at the vote counting process. Got it done in no time, full results before midnight on Election Day. Seems odd given the geographic and population similarities of the states that one would be so much better.

The states that were able to process mail in ballots in advance were all done "on time".
Georgia SOS says that they will definitely have a recount.

The big difference between MI, PA and OH as far as running elections efficiently?
Ohio's SOS is a Republican. MI and PA are run by democrats.
And Ohio did not go down the rabbit hole of Mail In Balloting. If you didn't want to vote on election day you had a month ahead of time to go in person or you could send in an absentee application and get an absentee ballot.

Lol...
Teach division...That is great.
Us vs. Them...
All Democrats are alike and all republicans are alike...That should lead to people working together in the future.
Come on...Everything is not black and white. Neither group is a monolith
True, most democrats are now prog filth. There are a few sane ones left. Unfortunately they dont post here.
I see you troll here as much as you do on the sports board.
At least you are consistent.

Ohio only has 96% of the total votes counted (according to the Fox News Map)
MI, WI, IN, WV are at 99%
PA is at 95%
They didn't have the "full results" before midnight on Election Day. They just knew enough to safely call it for Trump. It'll take another week or so to tally all the absentee and provisional ballots. There's just not enough of them to make much of a difference.

Ohio's SOS is a Republican. MI and PA are run by democrats.
Michigan 99% counted
PA 95% Counted
Ohio 92% Counted
No one cares about Ohio because it has already be decided...Not because they counted a higher % of the vote.
When presented with those numbers do you feel democrats do a better job counting votes?
Stop trying to vilify the other side.
Everything is not simple...Context matters.

Ohio isn't going to change the direction of the election due to the margin Biden lost by.
There is no need to finish quickly simply by the time the results have to be certified.
