Arizona looking close. Couple of recounts looking likely.
Recounts change numbers by a few hundred
All Biden needs is PA
It'll be fine, the only worry is how much trump incites his base to violence

Pennsylvania’s in the bag. It’s all that matters. I still think he’ll win all of them. The military votes are a small worry but by all accounts there aren’t that many of those and it’s unlikely they’ll favour trump by any margin that can make a difference.
I’m not sure how you think ivanka isn’t part of the establishment
Watch that video it’s clear she’s not part of the political establishment. She may shit in a gold toilet but she’ll never be welcome at the table with the likes of Lagarde.
Anyone else still a little nervous?

Fat lady warming her voice, but not on stage yet, never mind singing.
Well only in the sort of way you’d be nervous about a horror film baddie, you’re never sure they’re dead until the corpse burns or is beheaded.
The writings on the wall though, his party, the media, even his own staff are leaving the sinking ship.
In theory he can still win, but one state won’t do it, he needs all of them really.
My Brexity brother in law has just put up on FB that people complaining about Trump whining about the result and going to the courts need to think about how we behaved after the Brexit result came through. 🙄
Not had to see him since last Christmas, let's see how long we can keep this lockdown going.
The military votes are a small worry but by all accounts there aren’t that many of those and it’s very in certain they’ll favour trump by any margin that can make a difference.
Military votes have been skewing to Biden!
Thanks to trumps attacks on John McCain, war dead, POWs, bounties on US troops

Perfect opportunity for Biden to show his steel. Send the Marines, Rangers and F15s in on the MAGA gatherings and dispense some whupp-ass. They like that shit, they'll respect him more for it...
How's chewk handling this?
I'm pretty split on this. On the one hand, having people dying isn't good, and it gives them martyrs. On the other, it would be kind of wonderful to have all the boogaloo boys, incels and militia cosplayers come out of their bunkers and basements and get their heads stomped flat.
Sadly it looks like they're aiming for the simmering constant low level domestic terrorism approach, which is possibly the worst outcome
I was thinking the same thing Kimbers. He has been rather conspicuous by his absence since things started going sideways for the Trumpster.
Has anyone checked on Zulu and Jamba?

I suspect at the end of the day they'll just open another bottle of Jim Beam.

Yes, Trump's average percentage with each batch is currently greater than the target it needs to be to win in Arizona, and it's a lot closer in the rest.
The lesson I think is that the establishment should be a bit less sure of their supremacy.
The lesson I think is that she shouldn’t have been there.
Anyone else still a little nervous?
Is ridiculously close yes, but I draw a crumb of comfort from the fact that Trump thinks he needs to use legal means to win.

I suspect the majority would rather go supersize on the drive through
kimbers, chewk has gone for a reboot after his latest software upgrade 😉
Let’s not get personal. Unless it’s about the Trumps… they’ve earned it.
Kimbers - I’ve been watching on CNN all day and the AZ voted to trump have been under his requirement all day.
I know it's never really been their territory but if they (GOP) let Trump carry on with the rhetoric and casting aspersions at Pennsylvania and Philly its going to remain a political wasteland for them for a generation or more.
Trump to keep claiming he's been cheated and flounces before January, resigning.
That'll mean Pence becomes Pres and as his last act he gets to make Pres pardons.
Guess who will be top of the list!!

can you pardon someone not indicted or convicted ?
seems you can... here have a get out of jail free card for any crimes you may have committed against the US while president of the US. Think I would make it conditional on him Allocuting live on TV.
Al Capone?
I see Bidens Georgia lead has grown to 4266.

Please can they call this now
I need sleep
I obviously don't condone the language
Rather I'm impressed with their coordination & ability to hold a tune

An old man turned ninety-eight
He won the election and died the next day
It's a black fly in your Chardonnay
It's a presidential pardon two minutes too late
And isn't it ironic, don't you think?
It's like way-ay-ay
Ting for Florida to declare
When that was literally the first thing that was supposed to happen in the entire bloody results day and everyone knew Biden was totally going to win it and it's now day 47 and they're still counting and Trump won the state but it turns out it doesn't even matter
It figures
I’ll quite happily leave that Philly chanting just on repeat in the background
It's overlaid audio from an English crowd I believe
Favourite name of the election so far...
Philadelphia police commissioner, Danielle Outlaw
I put Fox on last night to see what was going on in lala land and they had senator Graham on there touting the same BS as trump. Also refering people to the donaldjtrump.com website to donate to the legal fund and that he's personally donated 500k

Not really election news but I suppose an election night party at the White House and then testing positive for Covid is still news!
Georgia now @ 7248
should be calling PA soon lead with now out to half a percent and only going one way.

Haven't seen it, but read that Laura Ingraham did a piece yesterday calling for Trump to kick off a review of the election process but accept the result gracefully to save his reputation (!) People saying it was messaging from Murdoch.
Just found it...
On the guardian news feed
A texting company run by one of President Donald Trump’s top campaign officials sent out thousands of targeted, anonymous text messages urging supporters to rally where votes were being counted in Philadelphia on Thursday, falsely claiming Democrats were trying to steal the presidential election
So direct calls for unrest coming from the Trump camp, with just enough wiggle room to claim otherwise.

She could join forces with our former neighbourhood beat bobby, PC Crooks
he's not liked in Washington DC ol' Angry Tinkerbell..... 5.2% of the vote 😀

Dr Coma is my wife's consultant.
I was at med school with Dr Rash. He didn’t end up as a dermatologist, disappointingly
