Handle9: AP and Fox are 99% of the world's media? Mmmmkay.


That does handle the main-stream and right-wing. Google uses Associated Press heavily.

New York Times would cover the left-wing, never-Trumpers.

Sure but it's hardly comprehensive. ABC, CBS, NBC, NY Times, Reuters,WaPo etc etc haven't called it yet. The data journalists like 538 are saying that Nevada is probably done but Arizona is far from certain but leaning Biden.

Arizona is one state where it's possible or even likely that mail ballots favour Trump. There's still a ways to go, which is why it hasn't been called by most outlets.

btw for those who don't recall Arizona was a McCain (republican) country and he was insulted by Trump and his wife campaigned against Trump

 

looking at the charts in Wikipedia, Arizona has voted Republican at every election since 1988 bar 1 election (when it voted for Bill Clinton)

live feed asked "fox decision desK" - they are standing by their call and confirm they called Arizona to Biden



It surprises me that the Trump News Network is calling Arizona for Biden. None of the other large mainstream networks are (CNN, NYT, etc).

With 12% still to count I wouldn’t be calling it yet.

It’s certainly looking good, but I’m not popping open the bubbly just yet.

the guy that is the solo Mr Fox Decision Desk is an oldish man - can't remember his name ...

 

he gets challenged by unhappy fox hosts and says "i stand by what i said" and gets challenged again and says "i can't say anymore because the bosses will kill me"

 

to me it's better to hear from him than CNN but he isn't always on so i haven't come across him again since

In Arizona, Trump protesters are chanting 'Count the vote!'

 

In Pennsylvania, Trump protesters are chanting 'Stop the vote!'

 

The world's greatest democracy in real time.

There was a small mistake in your post.

gzt: I cannot find a national count of third party presidential vote anywhere. ...

 



 

Go to the BBC News website: US election results: Trump sues as path to victory over Biden narrows

 

Go to: What are the campaigns saying?  Scroll down to the US map.

 

Click on a state to get the stats for the three parties.

 


Here is Nevada:

Was just looking at all of Trumps recent tweets that have been flagged as false or misleading.

 

Such blatant lies from the leader of the most powerful country in the world, who is clearly and unashamedly trying to undermine and sabotage Democracy in order to hold onto power.

 

And all of the Republican stooges who are aiding and abetting this is disgusting. Do none of them have any conscience or decency?

No.

 

No matter their policies and political beliefs, this should be unthinkable. A certain amount of corruption on both sides is inevitable, but it is even more apparent now than ever that the entire Republican party is rotten to the core and will do anything to undermine democracy.

 

The land of the free indeed.

from my decades of observation - All politicians do that, when it's needed to be done. Otherwise you wouldn't be in politics.

 

There is also office politics etc - same stuff eh
