The *official* Election Day Game Thread!

Here comes a recount.

Here comes a recount.

That’s a huge number to make up for a recount. Will be one, but hard to see him making it up.

Interesting that the only race/gender demographic that Democrats performed better in for this election (2020 compared to 2016) is with WHITE MEN.

All other combos (listed by CNN below) show Trump performing better in 2020. This includes Black Men, Black Women, Latino Women, Latino Men.......

Despite what many progressives, including some on this board, will suggest, these election results have nothing to do with racism. There are a multitude of reasons many Americans reject the principles of either party.

I voted for a female candidate for the first time in my life ( Jo Jorgensen) in the hopes that someday down the line we ditch this stupid two party system that has resulted in each major party putting inept candidates in front of us, and then vilifying the other side.

Agreed.

Recounts aren't going to help Trump. When recounts are done the disparity is usually due to undercounted/late mail-in and absentee ballots; which are breaking Biden in some states as much as 8 to 1.

Trump is going to cry fraud and try to have the mail-in ballots thrown out entirely.

So wait, if my math is right if Biden stays ahead in Michigan, Nevada and Wisconsin he gets exactly 270 electoral votes needed to win? So PA, Georgia and N.Carolina results will not matter?

Yeah, it's a ****ing **** show. The way we consume "news" and form our opinions...it's a **** show.

Yes, until we get to the court challenges.

It's not over until the official tally of EC votes on Jan. 6, or until Trump concedes.

I predict that Trump will never issue a true concession. I think if he loses it will go to the courts and he will bluster about already winning and ****, then when it is confirmed in the courts that the lost, it will just be radio silence followed by a tweet storm that he was cheated yadda yadda yadda.

If I could re-do my vote i would probably either not vote or vote for her as well.

100% - He is a disagreeable, stubborn, egomaniac... him conceding in any dignified form ain't happening.

This is the biggest issue with our system imo. We will never get politicians that are working for the people and the greater good of the country under the two party system. I see no way out though.
