Who was it that said :

"We put together, i think, the most extensive and inclusive voter fraud organization in the history of American politics" ?

Come on, you know who said it, you can tell me. Come on, who said it?

Awww not gonna say where the quote came from? We all know don't we?


According to galaxy brain over here these 1,298 cases of voter fraud that have been confirmed over the past 30 years in all elections are about to be increased to the tune of 10s to 100s of thousands just from a single election.

Man, watching the Trump quislings flail about and refusing to admit plain reality is like reading the Intel fanboys refusing to admit AMD actually, finally "won" over in the Zen 3 thread. ...there must be some overlap, no? :D

(had to post that here...would get vacationed if I posted it over there :p)

Maybe while Joe Biden is being inaugurated on the National Mall, Trump can have an alternative Inauguration and come down the escalator at the Mall of America.

You FOOL, it will be booked at the dildo shop since the landscaping company hasn’t been paid.

Can someone explain to me why they haven't called Alaska for Trump yet? He's leading by 20% there.

Also, why are they so terrible at counting votes? They've had over a week now, and they've only counted 65% of them so far. Not that it really matters, as the places where people actually live in Alaska show Trump beating Biden by a huge margin.

They haven't called NC either and Trump isn't going to loose that based on what votes remain. Either way it doesn't really matter. The only truly close states are AZ and GA.

Per some dude I heard on the news, all major news outlets use a mostly custom data model that they use to call elections. They employ statisticians to interpret the data. The models are made to be very precise and they don’t call elections until there is a near certainty a winner.
Without knowing much about AK, I assume the data still shows a remote chance Biden or a 3rd party could win.
Another interesting thing I learned is many States stay at 99% counted. This isn’t counted it is the process is 99% complete. The process isn’t 100% complete until the provisional ballots and other oddities are complete and most importantly the person who signs off on the election result has signed off on it.

It takes a while to count all those votes ok? They probably lost heart when they realised that 3 electoral votes weren't going to swing the election.

Alaska stopped counting when they all they had left were mail-in and provisional ballots. Per state law, mail-ins are accepted till Nov 12th at which point they, along with provos, would be processed. I believe the provos would only be processed if they affect the results, but I could be wrong.

North Carolina has a similar system with their date being the 13th IIRC.

At the moment it looks like an internal psychodrama of Trump's.

He's escaping into fantasy, from some psychological crisis bought on by losing. He's cos-playing a coup leader rather than actually being one. But how many others are prepared to collude with his delusions? Seems as if it's always the same question with Trump - how far does the dysfunction that he embodies extend? Pompeo talks of a 'second Trump administration', and then undercuts it with a brief smirk. It seems a dangerous time to be making such jokes.
