    Adding to what I posted earlier, Michigan secretary of state calls Trump lawsuit on vote counting "frivolous"

    As votes in Michigan continue to be counted, the presidential race in the state remains extremely tight as we always knew it would be. President Trump's campaign has not been provided with meaningful access to numerous counting locations to observe the opening of ballots and the counting process, as guaranteed by Michigan law.
    -- Trump's campaign manager

    There are plenty of representatives and challengers as there have been throughout this process inside TCF Center, watching the process, observing the process. We've been very clear that as soon as someone became disruptive, they would have to leave. We've had actually very little examples of that

    I hope you are right... GA would be more than just a win... it’s big...

    As you lose hope in Philly... just remember the Philly special... they saved the country by beating the Patriots with a back up QB... they can save America with a mail in vote!!

    Kamala Harris would be Vice President because it's not a gendered title. Her husband would be the Second Gentleman.

    So, like everything else it's a clusterfuck you have to look at on a state by state basis.
    If Biden wins the electoral college, that would require the democrat-appointed electors in those states that carried him to victory to say "nah, fuck it, I'm voting Trump anyway #YOLO"

    I really don't think that's going to happen.

    The electors appointed for each state aren't just some random crop of people of any political party they tossed in and who just sit around waiting to see who wins the popular vote in their state. The electors are appointed per party, and then whichever party wins the popular vote in that state has their group of electors selected to cast all the EC votes.

    not gonna happen.

    Not quite. They ruled that state laws punishing and preventing faithless electors were legal. So if a state has no law preventing faithless electors...

    More like 66%, he needed a 73% margin earlier but he's been ahead of pace, even in the less blue counties.

    "First Lady" is a WH position. It is usually but not always the President's wife. Andrew Jackson's First Lady was his niece, which is 100% what I'd do, because my niece is amazing and Graham's wife probably wouldn't accept the job.

    I believe "First Hubby" has a good ring to it, though.

    Biden doesn't need Philly if he gets both AZ and NV. Biden has a few ways to win with a couple of those making the win so strong it doesn't matter how Trump argues it.

    But GA with AZ would be amazing and honestly call it tonight. They did say we will find out fully about GA sometime tonight.

    The more the better, gives trump less fuel for contesting the elections and a big fu to him to lose by a lot.

    Hmm where do you get that data from? Would be nice to know. Atm i'm just looking at the politico / google(AP) and calculate from there. with 122k votes left biden still needs 66% of the remaining votes to win.
