I don't like getting political news on Friday's after 5pm. That's usually when fucked up news is announced. I hope I'm wrong though. I just want this week long mild panic attack to go away.

As a Nevadan, this is incorrect. Trump/NVGOP have lost every lawsuit they've filed save two:
1. One is being settled and allows a few more observers.
2. One was just filed and hasn't had a preliminary hearing.
There are no ongoing lawsuits in which there is judicial oversight of ballot counting.

The slowdown comes from two factors:
1. Approximately 60,000 statewide are "provisional" ballots. Nevada has same-day voter registration and those voters are allowed to cast provisional ballots. The provisional ballots are counted LAST. In order to count a provisional ballot the County Clerk must verify the voter's information with the Secretary of State to ensure that the voter did not cast a ballot in any other county. This is a very slow process.
2. The remaining ballots are mail-in ballots. Nevada law permits mail-in ballots to be counted if they are postmarked by Election Day and received through today, I believe. Pretty much all of the mail-in ballots remaining are in Clark County (Las Vegas). Due to the relatively short timeframe on implementing statewide mail-in voting, Clark County only has one signature matching machine. They're processing about 30k-50k votes per day which, to me, seems reasonable given the capital constraints.

Isn't their AG a Trump humper?

No, all statewide elected officials are Democrats except for the Secretary of State, Barbara Cegavske, who is a Republican. I know her from her days in the State Senate. She's never been a "Trump humper," at least not publicly.

You're probably thinking of Adam Laxalt. He's the carpetbagger "conservatard" who was elected Attorney General in Nevada's 2014 Red Wave. He ran for Governor against Steve Sisolak and got his ass handed to him.

Also, to expand upon my earlier post this is the current breakdown of outstanding votes in Clark County:
  • 60,000 provisional ballots
  • 44,000 ballots that need ID verified
  • 2,100 ballots needing signature verification
  • 63,262 mail-in ballots to be counted

Technically the thing I posted says they have a judge reviewing them to preemptively make sure no lawsuit will have a leg to stand on, not as a response to a lawsuit demand. Not sure if that means anything and not really sure if I've effectively made my point here as I'm having a hard time putting it into words...

I get what you're saying. I'm fairly certain that there is no pre-emptive review being conducted. There's been no local media reporting on this and there are some local media outlets that would be all over this type of thing.

I was indulging in sinful gloating over at FOX and the "Dems we're coming for you" stuff started- again. I don't recall what I said but it might have been about his Russian heritage or the like. Now he's personally coming after me. I got a huge laugh out of that.

All of this comical. Mission accomplished. Now what?

You literally changed nothing other than got the orangutan out of the way.

It is enough.

Seems so reminiscent of hope and change... where it never comes lol. God forbid you light a fire under your establishment politicians to actually do something.

It is not the establishment politicians, it is the partisan divide. Republicans will not allow change for no other reason then the Democrats want it.
There are many Democrats that have a fire in their belly, and those are the ones that the Republicans hate the most.

See the bar-graphy thing that is the littlest?

Those represent the people who definitely did not most supportiest Trump. It could be argued that, the people in that bar-graphy thing are the people who most supported Biden.

But you keep screaming hysterically at a mirror.

remember every one: some big companies pay that guy a lot of money to do their taxes. 😀
