Batman: Gaps just got more narrow in nevada, arizona, p. A and Georgia in latest updates

 

According to NYT, Arizona's Maricopa County still has 204,000 early ballots to count, and won't be reporting them until 11am ET (5pm our time tomorrow?)

 

Trump picking up the needed 1.6% is possible.

 

Georgia count should be in sooner, and there should be a clearer picture of what'll happen in Pa.

It's been rounded up to a 49.4% tie, but Trump still has a lead of 1900 votes.  I'm confident Biden will pull ahead.

I couldn't even last a minute of that mindless garbage. I could feel my brain imploding. Christ I'm glad we don't get that kind of religious fervour here.

 

 

Brian Tamaki would like to disagree.

Is anyone following Trump tweets, if any? I'm not on Twitter.

Actually, I thought Paula White sounded better than Kanye West. Or any rapper, come to think of it.

 

Anyway, here's a question for you USA law experts.

 

Scenario: Biden wins and assumes the mantle. Retires in a coupla months citing extreme ennui. Kamala Harris becomes Prez.

 

Can she choose whomever she likes for VP?





Trump crowned? No faux King way!

Best hope is a 50:50 split, with the VP able to cast a deciding vote.

 

Democrats will really need to perform, focus on 2022 mid terms to try to gain a majority.

 

 

Is it likely they'll get the required senate seat to make it 50:50. If the VP gets the deciding that at least gives Democrats an advantage... if they all voted along party lines then the Dems would come up trumps (excuse the pun).

Or: vote is tied, House chooses president, Senate picks VP. Can Biden then fire Pence and select Kamala Harris?

Here's a BBC article about it. May not be decided until January.

Biden seems to be  getting far more postal votes than Trump, and postal votes are what are being counted now and causing the delay, and Trump knew this would happen. Pretty sure he told all is supporters to vote on the day in booths, and not use postal. This then allowed for him claim that he won , as he seems to see polling booths as the only legitimate voting method. That allowed him to claim victory on the day, and then claim it is getting stolen away from him as they count up the postal votes. One thing I don't think is good , is how different states have different rules around what postal votes can be accepted. Some seem to accept them coming in late as long as they are post dated before the election date, whereas other states don't seem to accept them unless their are received by the date. But the rules are rules and it is same rules for both of them.
