Official Election Month Thread: COUP falls short, nothing to see here

I have a hard right buddy who is saying AZ is going to swing to Trump and that Michigan is overreporting votes.

You should ask him how one "overreports" votes. Like they are making up vote numbers and sending them in?

He's not alone given that CNN is talking about AZ being in play.

Juice, I think votes matter more than money. Even if you look at the numbers of top, more people donated to other candidates than donated to Bernie just like more people voted for other candidates than voted for Bernie. It just looks good on a map if you focus on land.
 
Wouldn't think a Democratic Socialist organization would want to want to judge support based on the land near people who donated money instead of adding up each person's choice. Guess 2020 is full of surprises.

The Michigan Gov website has only reported a few million votes and Trump is up 200,000. He's saying "how can the media have the results when they haven't been fully reported from the Michigan government"
 
 
 
helpful breakdown from 538 as of 3:20pm:

Arizona: Biden currently leads here by 93,518 votes, but there are around 600,000 left to count, according to the Arizona Republic. About 450,000 of those are in Maricopa County, which says it will release two batches of results tonight: one at 9 p.m. Eastern and one sometime after 12:30 a.m. Eastern. Some outlets, such as Fox News, have already projected Arizona for Biden, but our colleagues at ABC News have not yet done so.

Nevada: Biden leads here by only 7,647 votes, and an estimated 14 percent of the vote is still uncounted. However, those votes will all be either late-arriving mail ballots or provisional ballots, which should lean Democratic. We won’t be getting another update here until noon Eastern on Thursday.

Wisconsin: The Wisconsin Elections Commission has announced that all votes in the state are counted, and Biden has a 20,510-vote lead in the state. The Trump campaign has requested a recount, but that has not stopped some media outlets like the AP to project Wisconsin for Biden. ABC News has not issued a projection here, as the decision desk won’t project races that are within 1 percentage point.

Georgia: Trump currently leads here by 79,509 votes, and the secretary of state said during an 11:30 a.m. press conference that there were still 200,000 mail-in votes and 50,000 early votes to count, mostly in Democratic-leaning counties like Fulton and DeKalb. Fulton is hoping to finish all its counting by 9 p.m. tonight.

Michigan: Biden currently leads here by just 37,350 votes, but it will be difficult for Trump to close that gap because most of the uncounted ballots are in very blue Wayne County (Detroit). At 2 p.m. Eastern, Wayne said it had only 16,000 ballots left to count, which it plans to complete by 6 p.m.

Pennsylvania: Trump currently leads Biden 53 percent to 45 percent in Pennsylvania, but this one is a long way from over — 19 percent of expected votes are still uncounted, most of them Democratic-leaning mail ballots. Counties are working around the clock to finish counting, but we’re looking at Thursday or Friday before results are semi-final.

North Carolina: North Carolina has counted every ballot it had in its possession as of yesterday, and Trump leads by 76,737 votes among them. However, the state has announced that about 117,000 mail-in ballots are potentially outstanding, plus an unknown number of provisional ballots. Mail-in ballots have until Nov. 12 to arrive, and only at that point will more results be released.

TL;DR: Good news for Biden in NV, MI, WI, and GA, meh news in AZ, fuck you news from NC.
 
The Michigan thing is exactly what Trump told the Proud Boys to stand-by for.
