    Just that one set of votes in Allegheny, not the whole county/state.

    Someone said above that it has restarted again in that county now...

    Ingraham actually appears uncomfortable in what she's saying at the end and seems to want to close out the interview. That's weird for her.

    Nevada much bigger now if the GOP are stalling counting in PENN

    Problem is that Nevada is counting SLOW:

    They're counting the other votes for Allegheny, I understand there's an agreement not to touch the disputed votes until late tomorrow afternoon.

    The seeds for this were planted months ago, all of this is by design by Trump and his team.

    Awful.

    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?

    It's amazing how the party that came up with the patriot act are the ones to scream and cry loudest about rights when it suits them

    I've only read back 5 or so pages so apologies if this was posted already.

    It is a great breakdown of where the remaining votes are expected to come from that haven't yet been counted.

    Really explains why Fox and AP have been so steadfast with not changing their call on AZ.

    STOP THE FRAUD under a picture of Trump is not the look I think he wanted to go for there

    It does look like there is actual voting fraud.

    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.

    The 1900 one is because of this:

    The William Bradley one looks to be his son who doesn’t show up as having voted and has an identical address. Likely to be error rather than fraud.

    Thanks for this. A really informative graphic. County names mean very little so this is really helpful.

    It is very like his lying strategy. Which is to keep moving. Keep changing it up. Never give the Dems time to hammer home one point because you have moved on and forgotten it. People forget the details because so little time was spent on it and just remember the smoke.

    Correcting myself here,

    looks like they've stopped all counting in Allegheny County until tomorrow.

    That's great, thanks. I like the look of all of those blue circles. If anything it appears that Biden will only extend his leads in AZ and NV and that's all he needs to get to 270.


    Edit: I suppose the worry is though that just because the previous votes in a county were blue does not mean the future ones will be particularly if there is a material difference in their source. For example, I believe the Maricopa county votes remaining were from Drop Boxes on election day and apparently these skew Trump.

    This assumes Nevada will in fact finish counting enough for it to be called before AZ. I think today's counts are also not meant to be massively Biden friendly in Nevada with things improving later but this delays a call.

    This is great, I hadn't realised that Nevada is so heavily towards Biden at this point in the remaining votes. Similar with Arizona and to a lesser extent Pennsylvania. It explains a lot of the optimism which hopefully comes to pass.

    Always best to take anything on Twitter like that as complete twaddle unless confirmed otherwise by somebody reputable. Many somebodys preferably.

    I said it at some point last night or this morning that Fox News and the AP were out of step with the other networks so if Nevada went to Biden it was six electoral votes it would be 270. I mean Fox News may up being right but I’ve said it several times they were a bit eager to get out of the blocks.

    TBH they were going off incorrect data which showed the AZ count at 98% instead of 86% they should have just manned up and admit they made an easy mistake

    There was people pointing out on twitter yesterday the irony that the first major news network to call the election will be Fox.

    According to CNN, Biden's team believe Trump will make gains today in Arizona via Maricopa County but are counting on making up for that tomorrow in Pima County, where Tucson is.

    Even just looking at one of the counties in Georgia, DeKalb. 19,000 votes uncounted, so far that county is 83% in favour of Biden and he's 14,000 behind across the whole state. More than 25k votes to be counted in Fulton and he's 72% up there.

    Biden is leading all the bigger places still counting in Georgia, I think he will win that state.
