[GrandAdmiral]

I'll probably be flipping between CNN, NBC, and probably PBS if they have coverage.

What station you got?

Could this be the announcement?

Guns, lies and ballots set on fire: This is voter suppression in 2020

From armed people standing outside early voting sites to ballot drop boxes being set on fire, voter suppression is happening across the country.

www.usatoday.com

lets see, armed people showing up at polls.
people wearing security uniforms that aren't security
people with BLM turned away at the polls
mailers and robocalls using scare tactics
drop boxes set on fire

I read in another article

On Halloween, he cast his ballot at an early voting location in Wingate. But a few days later, he said, he checked his voter history on the North Carolina State Board of Elections website and saw no indication that his vote had been recorded.

So on Election Day, the 49-year-old registered Republican went to the polls again, where he said a worker told him there was no record of his first vote, and that he should vote again.

yeah 2 days at that board has taken its toll on him. Yesterday votes were popping up on updates to GA and he is busy talking about something irrelevant.

I've taken a peek here and there and not really impressed. I've watched him a good bit and never was a fan. He has his moments on occasion, but mostly meh.

Last election he was really good. They did a good job of telling people to stay calm about the absentee ballots coming and how it will shift in each state. They are running out of things to talk about and so its filler and he doesn't do good with trying to fill in so much time. He should be just doing post analysis now but this election keeps stretching out and its only in a few states so they keep going through the same thing over and over again, Even 538 would pause the live blogs because there is nothing to talk about.

Based on this there are about 33,000 votes in Clayton, Fulton, Chatham, and Gwinnett. This is Atlanta and Savannah areas that lean Biden.

Also Bryan county 3,027 near Savannah and Harris county 3,641 near Columbus are heavy Trump counties by about 75-25.

They shouldn't have those margins since it is absentee ballots. It will be close. If they are able to shave off some of those percentages from 2016, So rather than gaining 3k votes, maybe make it 2k.

Yes, but we know that the mail in votes won't likely reflect that because of the successful GOP push to convince their voters that mail votes are bad.

 

[SystemShock]

I'm sorry, I know that memes and the like are disfavored because they typically debase the conversation - but with apologies to that notion, this is too good not to share.

No need to apologize.
1. It debases itself.
2. When you think about it, it is not funny.

I am hoping that this tweet is accurate

Yeah, I planned on sitting for 40 minutes this morning. Was a little surprised when I stopped and had been sitting for 88 minutes.

 

[EmBeeFiveOhFour]

A baseless lawsuit is just a tweet with a filing fee.

For example:



Somebody: I saw them count 53 late ballots!!!!

Trump: Files lawsuit

Judge: Did you really though?

Somebody (now under oath and subject to perjury): Uhhhhhhhhhh

This appears to be the major announcement. Shocker.

It is a smart move for Mr Trump. There is nothing to lose but everything to gain.

 

[barbar]

Or he could accept defeat gracefully like every other president before.

Does he actually believe that counting valid votes is fraud???

Ironically, I think he's going to play the voter suppression card by basically saying the media was complicit in suppressing the Republican vote by intentionally misleading voters with bogus poll numbers. It won't work, but I suspect that will be an angle.

 

[SaulGoodmanEsq]

Again, this is more about him cultivating his brand. It's showmanship.

 

[CoolBrees]

He is trying to avoid the SDNY

He’s gonna go to jail and he knows it

Down to 14,000 in GA

For him personally yes. Obviously for the country it's destructive unless he's got a legitimate basis. He might, but so far (e.g. the Chatham County PA suit was pure junk) the basis for legal actual has been pretty weak.

Of course Trump has never cared one iota about the good of the nation versus the good of Trump, so it's consistent.
