Actually, it was for much of the day and it was responsible of them to hold off calling it until more of the vote came in. Whining that they didn't call any states early for trumpybear was just factually incorrect as it happened with frequency on Tuesday.
I also think dems jump between candidates and issues more easily.. party affiliation and auto vote repug candidate on its own gives a starting point to repugs. its a disadvantage dems have to work through same way repugs want only certain folks voting.
Ok I'll play. What reason would it flip because the courts got involved? What's the legal basis for going to the courts?
@fchowd0311 I’m assuming they’re sampling votes from counties and bootstrapping/extrapolating it for what it likely will be for the entirely of the remaining votes?
They aren't sampling, they are looking at raw numbers and then extrapolating. I believe the rate of mail-in votes in PA have been going in favor of Joe Biden at a 4:1 ratio. Since a majority of the votes remaining is in heavy democrat areas, it is not unreasonable to assume that 75% of those votes are for Joe Biden.
They aren't really sampling. We know the vote totals that already have been counted in the Philadelphia metro area. They are just assuming that Biden will hold that rate or underperform a little and still winning. So yes they are extrapolating but they aren't sampling as they have all the data of votes already counted per county.
And with the amount of votes remaining, Biden doesn't need to be anywhere near 75% for the remaining ballots. He just needs to be around above 60% or so. So he has a lot of wiggle room to underperform also with the remaining votes. Hence why I think it's a near certainty at this point. Though hopefully the lead is past 1% so we don't have to deal with a long recount.
Well she certainly said it with her chest. LOL. Remember all of the gifs and memes about liberal tears and the women's march "p***y hats"? Good times man.
I love this gif - the way he puts his hands into a sprinter's aerodynamic position then moves slower is gold.
Jo Jorgensen is the new Ralph Nader. 1. Wisconsin - Biden won by 20000ish votes while Jorgensen got 40000. 2. Georgia - Biden might win by a thousand or so if the absentee trends continue while Jorgensen got 60000 votes. 3. Arizona - Jorgensen got close to 40000 votes which might be more than the difference between Biden and Trump after ballots are fully counted. 4. Nevada - Jorgensen got 11000ish votes which is pretty darn close to the current margin (although I expect the margin to grow so maybe it doesn't matter).
