US Election Week 2020

Still looks kinda close

It is close, but the votes that are outstanding come from Democratic strongholds. It's over, and Georgia now gets to stop being a retard state.

about damn time.


"My" state is still full retard. 

[viper37]

This looks like it's over. All that's left are Dem votes in the big counties, more than enough to overcome the Rep leads now.

Congrats to Senators-elect Ossof and Warnock. I'm going to bed.

they can't take any chances.  They should declare victory now and pretend what's left are illegal votes.  Republicans would certainly agree, given the precedent

[11B4V]

Oh shit they may have done it...

[Valmy]

I cannot believe it. It is looking very probable we have won both seats. Who would have thought back in November that this would happen? Congrats to the all the Democrats who worked their asses off in Georgia over the past several weeks to make this happen.

Now maybe we can do something potentially great and maybe not get crushed in 2022, overcoming recent history. Possibilities might be  opening up for old uncle Joe.

And Ossoff would be in there for a full six year term. Kick ass.

[jimmy olsen]

Ossof up 12,806 votes. Only dem areas left. Stick a fork in Perdue.

[Josquius]

Strange that the difference between the two is so large. Everyone in the state gets a ballot for both right?
Seems some people want to try and give 1 a piece.

[DGuller]

There are always going to be people for whom being balanced is a virtue in itself, and not thinking about what you're balancing is not a vice.  Take 100 random people and I'm sure you can find one of those types easily.

Maybe some of them vote for (or against) people, not party.

Yeah and I can see Loeffler being more offensive.

But this is good news - especially for the people of West Virginia who are about to get drowned in federal money

It's also an example - along with throwing Pence under bus - that there is always some cost in embracing Trump.

[celedhring]

Nice to wake up to good news, for a change. As Sheilbh says, this could potentially show that there are costs for embracing full retardedness.

Now let's see what happens with today's congressional drama.

[Solmyr]

Who threw Pence under the bus and how?

[Sheilbh]

Who threw Pence under the bus and how?

Trump. He keeps saying that Pence has options to disapply votes or return counts to the state etc. So if Trump isn't elected today - it's Pence's fault.

[Grey Fox]

Wow. Some great news this morning. Congrats Habs, your anti-republican trolling work!

[Razgovory]

Man, you stat guys know your stuff.  You're like wizards or something.

[FunkMonk]

Trump keeps losing Georgia. I didn't know it was possible to be this much of an incompetent loser.
