Mega-Thread: 2020 United States General Election

Apologies if I missed this, but is there any reason Nevada's count doesn't seem to be updating at all?

Bit sad this thing is so close. Really feels like the Civil War needs to be finished off over there.

Does Biden's current 264 count include Nevada? Not sure how to read the chart on google.

No. Dark red and blue states have been called, light red and blue have not been called and show who's currently ahead.

They announced that they won't be reporting again until 9am (their time) tomorrow.

No. Nevada is still too close to call, even with Biden leading and areas seemingly deep blue areas.

Well this is going to take a while.

My guess? Between the time it will take to get the calls for who what state ( AZ, NV, PA ), recount efforts and other lawsuits? You are looking at days if not weeks until we know who won, and it's going to be a tight affair.

Just on how things are travelling in Georgia - Fulton County did an update of 27.8K votes. Biden got 22.1K. Roughly 80%. That is way over what he needs.

I expect we'll know who won tomorrow, Friday at the latest, and Trump will spend the next few weeks on frivolous lawsuits trying to fight the results.

So with Kelley winning AZ Senate, when is he seated? I know since it was a special election he can be seated before 1/3, but I don't know how soon.

Likely to impact a lame duck session at all?

According to Google, November 30th. That still only puts the Senate at 52-48, though, so it's unlikely to affect anything. Assuming McConnell even brings anything to the floor to affect in the first place...

Nope. It might have mattered with nominating someone to the Supreme Court if some other Republicans had joined Collins but otherwise no.

There's still dozens of Judicial Nominees Trump will want to nominate. Wonder what McConnell is going to do for the next few months especially with a Biden victory?

[Mormolyce]

If Dems waste another 4 years on going after Trump's tax returns or screaming about Russia, then there is no hope for the party.

They definitely shouldn't, that's the job of the courts.

Obviously refrain from confirming any candidates "in an election year" (TM), because he's not a raging hypocrite.

Lulz.

[Blur4stuff]

If Biden wins I think a lot of Trump's skeletons will come out of the closet over the next few years even if a Biden administration completely ignores Trump.

The bards and clerics are trying to save the encounter lol

To be clear, in this analogy the demons are... votes in a democratic election.

At this point i'm wondering what more there is. what shit hasn't this guy done yet?

[Mormolyce]

He claimed he won the major vote last time which wasnt true.

I really hope Biden does win, just so the headline every single day is something other than "Trump falsely claims ____".

[Fugus]

They definitely shouldn't, that's the job of the courts..

Actually, that was a job for the House Ways and Means Committee but we had Manuchin refuse to do his job and instead protecting Trump by refusing to follow the law and Barr and the GOP protecting him.

Party of Law and Order my ass.

We still haven't seen the Muller report without the redactions that were performed by the Trump Administration.

[Blur4stuff]

There will be a deluge of small things. Horrible things said and decided behind the scenes during the presidency. Other crappy things from his past that people sat on in exchange for favors or out of fear.

Bigger things could be tied to who he's in debt to. All of the taxpayer money he's funneled into his family's pockets. It's a long list.

On related news, evidently some more of it got unredacted on election day with regards to Roger Stone, its also damning to him.

As far as what hasn't Trump done, at this point, I wouldn't be surprised if the "Compromat" on him was video of him and his daughter in the hotel room.
