Trump thinks Pence is like the Supreme Court tomorrow when the reality is he is like a celebrity opening the envelop at the Oscars.

I like how Pence had to finally explain that to him during their meeting today. 

LOL wow.  Mail in ballots aren't counted until after or did they start early?

They processed them early this time. They started counting them today. Almost all the votes from Atlanta metro is mail-in ballots so far. I'm interested to see how Warnock/Ossoff do in those counties compared to Biden. Because Ossoff ran quite a bit behind Biden in the general.

Apparently they can conduct signature verifications beforehand on any received before today, but cannot begin counting them officially until polls close.

Quote

No ballots, including absentee ballots received in advance of Election Day, can be counted until the polls close. But a state election board rule requires county election officials to begin processing absentee ballots — verifying signatures on the outer envelope, opening the envelopes and scanning the ballots — before Election Day. That should speed things up on election night. Still, some absentee ballots received by mail or in drop boxes up until 7 p.m. on Election Day will still need to be processed

 

Would rather be the dems than the republicans as things stand now

It’s hard to tell if the Democrats have the votes to make up ground and where the republicans still have margins. It depends on turnout...I’m still seeing lots of votes still around Atlanta and in Chatham county.

Lots of votes left in the Atlanta suburbs. The question I have is, how blue is the day-of and the remaining early vote?

John King and the CNN reporter, Nick Valencia, at the scene in DeKalb County said that the early votes have yet to be counted but there is 63% of the vote remaining. Chatham County and DeKalb County are their only hope.

Wasserman called it for Warnock. Man must feel real confident in those remaining votes.

Pretty much all the numbers guys are saying it's over for the race. E: meaning Warnock will win

Edited January 6, 20215 yr by StrangeSox

CNN just reported from Gabriel Sterling that mostly 171,000 early votes are outstanding in DeKalb County and Wolf Blitzed stated the early votes skewed heavily Democratic.

They're slightly less confident in Ossof

but we're probably looking at a D Senate here. Insanity.

 

 

Lol deep blue Georgia, two Senate seats and the presidential race. What a world.

It’s going to be close against Purdue if he gets a lot out of DeKalb County but I don’t know if that is enough to beat Purdue. I bet recounts will follow.

Man please pull this out Democrats.  I don’t care what you’re politics are, but these Republicans that are trying undermine democracy need to lose all power.

 

Wowwwwwww!

Thank you Donald Trump for grifting off tens of millions in donations for these races and also for pushing the $2k checks that Dems were able to absolutely hammer the GOP with over the final push in these races.

The fat lady isn’t singing yet.

130,000 in total in DeKalb, 117,000 early voting, remainder is the day of. We don’t know if mail in ballots are counted.

130k vs 170k is troubling if true, especially for Ossoff

But either way, even if they pull ahead of ossoff, it wouldn't have been this close without Trump's help.

Why the hell does a county have a CEO? And why is he disagreeing with the Georgia voting systems coordinator?
