    Why did the GOP not challenge this before the deadline to challenge it?

    The cynic in me thinks that they didn't because it might have worked in their favour , but now that it doesn't....

    Yeah why didn’t they challenge it ? It’s a good question.

    Voting paused in Pennsylvania

    Democrats gone to Supreme Court to ask for it to he reopened. Democrats argue it’s being streamed(which it is) so is transparent (which it is)

    Court challenge in Nevada.. none of which one makes any sense. And is only being focused on a Democrat area, becuase of course it is

    CNN just revealed that 29,000 ballots in Allegheny County, PA, won't be counted until tomorrow due to a legal challenge. Will resume at 10pm our time tomorrow.

    Perdue down to bang on 50% in GA now too. Unless something weird happens, that’s a runoff.

    Kate Baldwin said that they’d start at 9am their time on 6,000 other ballots.

    Janey, Trump will be incandescent if he loses PA or GA. But imagine both?

    Don't personally feel like we should be holding out hope for either, but one can always dream.

    If PA doesnt go Biden form this point it would be a huge shock

    It's a matter of time for this to be called, and then we get all the court cases

    Hopefully the trend of things to come...

    The thing is that the Trump team aren't even trying!

    These cases they're bringing have been described as "Tweets with a Filing Fee"... Totally frivolous and without merit!

    Jeez, the lawyers must be chuckling as they charge the Trump campaign a couple of $000 per hour for these Hail Mary jobbies!

    It does look like there is actual voting fraud.

    https://twitter.com/fleccas/status/1324237476186202113

    I checked for myself. A 118 year old dead man named William Bradley did indeed vote in the 2020 election in Detroit.

    That is not to say that the vote may have been cast for Biden. Indeed, there may be fraudulent votes out there that went to Trump as well.

    It looks like this is going to be a real mess.

    What's the breakdown of the votes left in Arizona, are they predominantly Democratic areas? I hope it won't matter in the grand scheme but I have a horrible feeling Trump will edge it

    One would be forgiven for thinking that the Trump campaign are deliberately attempting to incite violence. That is, it's not about the lawsuits, it's about being able to claim that the election was stolen from them by the "liberal courts" throwing out their court cases and doing Biden's dirty work for him.

    But really, it's about money, it's about the last grift. Trump's personal & campaign websites have today been converted into pleas for donations to help fight these court cases.

    The court costs are minimal, really it's just another straight up con job. Empty some gullible idiots' pockets before walking into the sunset.

    Textbook scam, so obvious that it's incredible they still get away with it.

    AP saying that while Nevada will release some results today, they won't finish today, and there won't be enough done today to be able to call it for anyone.

    They are actually stopping the vote count in Penn - that's huge if the case, Trump may really grind this down.

    Historic times people. This video, and others like it will be in history classes in 20 years. It really must be pointed out the people in both video are supporters of Trump because the immediate natural response is to think they are on opposing sides.

    There's several spoof videos doing the rounds of Trump 'campaign' organisers liasing on telephone calls with people on the ground in PA and NV and realising while speaking to them that they are actually being hypocritical.

    This is it

    Extends lead in Nevada by about 4k, 12k the difference now

    Are they stopping all counting in PA or is it just that one county that was stopped and then restarted again?

    Here's the thing though..

    That doesn't mean the vote was counted though , just checked in..

    This isn't proof that fraud occured.

    I'm sure there's lots of stuff that comes in that gets chucked at various stages through the process.

    Also - Who found this?

    A GOP friendly tweeter , just randomly managed to find an example of a dead voter?

    Touch of "Project Veritas" about this story.

    Trump supporters , it seems to be one of the most used phrases on these threads , usually in contempt.

    Biden supporters , that phrase is hardly ever used for some reason.

    Trump officials allowed to stand slightly closer in PA now. I have no idea what that is meant to achieve. I have no idea if that is separate from stalling the count. Either is irrelevant.


    Whatever happened to Americans should know the Victor ASAP?

    On that one alone. The vote was picked up and is at ‘voter status:challenged” so it wasn’t even counted


    Every election in the world has attempted fraud

    THERE IS zero evidence of widespread fraud in This election
