    So it looks like Biden will take PA, GA, NV and possibly AZ. That should be a comfortable win, and I’m sure will only serve to calm trump into a peaceful transition of power.

    Nevada is projected blue.
    Georgia flipped.
    PA is likely to flip to blue.
    NC has a chance to flip blue, albeit a small one.

    So, there's 60 up for grabs, with 264 for Biden and 214 for Trump.
    6 for Nevada
    3 for Alaska
    20 for PA
    16 for GA
    15 for NC

    Biden wins any but Alaska, and it's over.
    Trump has to win all of them to win, with Alaska basically irrelevant.
    Right now, it looks like Biden with 306 (GA, NV and PA), and Trump with 232, with a small possibility of 321 for Biden and 217 for Trump.

    There will be recounts abound, and from what I can tell AZ theoretically is in play. Also, as the absentees/provisional ballots are counted, you'll see the gap close in Texas, and to a lesser degree Ohio. So, while Texas is still red, in 2024 it will probably be a swing state.

    Even if Biden takes PA, every count should proceed to its finish and make it definitive and absolute. Otherwise we'll have another "lost cause" narrative on our hands for years to come.

    Why do you think they chose the justices that they did?

    They've probably got some serious dirt on them, especially Kavanaugh.

    It would be hilarious and damning if the election does go to the Supreme Court, and Trump's three lackeys vote in his favor - and no one else does.

    There’s no actual reason for it to go to the SC. All the claims of fraud are completely without merit and it’s not looking to be particularly close. The court can’t just jump in and even if they were able to, and just “overturn” the result of the will of over 70 million people, that’s the end of this country.

    They're already calling PA for Biden which is game over. Just wondering how long before the AP calls it since they tend to be the first domino that needs to fall before all the other news outlets follow suit.

    Hopefully he can somehow take NC too, that would be marvellous. The death rattle seems more imminent now— Without Penn he’s toast regardless.

    Be amazing if, like Capone going down for tax fraud, Trump goes down for B&E.

    Right now, Rush Limbaugh is saying that Biden won.

    He’s also saying that “media outlets want fox to be the first network to project a win” - adding to the storyline of Trump vs. Fox I referenced before

    Watching the protests in Arizona, I am wondering if the President is trying to inflame them a bit with his rhetoric.

    A Biden victory would be a ratings boom for Limbaugh in his last years. It would give him a whipping boy for all of America's problems much as Clinton and Obama did.

    I don’t Limbaugh has years left. My aunt died of the type of cancer he has. Once you exhaust the main treatment options, you go down hill pretty fast.

    I kind of like the idea of calling the election at 5 p.m. on a Friday, and being like "stew on that shit til Monday, bro".

    I expect all sorts of recounts, lawsuits and bullshit, and I'm far from thrilled by the prospects of President Biden, but it seems the world at large can finally start ignoring Donald Trump, and that is fucking stellar.

    I wish I had the absolute balls to say this on national television.
