Rikkitic:

 

Early (very!) results from Kentucky and Indiana, Trump ahead as expected.

 

 

 

 

Has this prompted Doofus to make a victory speech?

 

Edit - oh wait.  With 8% of vote counted, Biden now has a 7.5% lead in Kentucky.

 

I'll crack open the bourbon and tune up the banjo.

Was looking at Counties on CNN - does anyone know a place where you can see live results that shows how they voted in 2016? The heartland votes don't mean much on their own.

11% of the vote now counted in Kentucky - and Trump now ahead.

 

They sure do count fast in Kentucky, having those extra fingers helps.

Trump has 93.3% of the vote in North Carolina so far, with 15 votes counted, Biden only has one vote.

 

Heh.  Maybe I should go something else for at least a couple of hours.

I drank some of that once, distilled up in the mountains of NC by a friend's grandpa who'd passed, bottled in quart preserving jars, stored under his house.  Severe fire risk - no flavour or colour, not aged in barrels or anything added, kicked like a mule.  You can't distil technically "pure" ethanol, but this was pretty close - undrinkable (to me) without adding water.

 

 

 

Jeepers - Florida is looking close, 2/3 counted, Biden ahead by ~1%.

DS248:

Misinformation at work - how to influence an election result

 

 

So the ones who have been banging on about voter fraud for months are the ones who are busy perpetrating the voter fraud.

 

 

Par for the course for Republicans, I guess, see e.g. their comments about Supreme Court judge replacement under Obama and then what they did themselves.

I read it again (NYT) and now no votes are showing as counted.

 

Someone goofed.  Oh wait - it's evidence of voter fraud. (/s)

Florida looks crucial for Trump. CCN says hard for him to win if doesn’t get that one. Biden ahead at moment by less then 1%

 

Edit: Add link for live result, sea sawing like mad.

Been keeping an eye on that, interesting to see that although Biden is currently slightly ahead the most important figure, "Shift from 2016", shows no change. "Same procedure as every year, James".
