Thankfully Trump has the supreme court to protect us from all those fraudulent Biden votes. Idiot ballot stuffers will not only end up in jail, they'll inadvertently help Trump by getting all the ballots that passed through them voided, most likely in a heavily Democratic area.
Let's look at the court. Will they order a recount? No. It is up to the states. The loser can demand a recount, and in most states it is 0.5% difference in the votes that gets you a recount.
Of course the court, both state and federal can order a recount. The court can also order certain tainted ballots not to count.
A rational skeptic should be able to discuss and debate anything, no matter how much they may personally disagree with that point of view. Discussing a subject is not agreeing with it, but understanding it.

It's lucky you've got an impartial court system there..

A couple US networks have walked back the call of Arizona for Biden. :nervous:

The only ones I've seen that called it were Fox and the Associated Press. I read that Trump called Murdock and yelled at him.

The NYT says Arizona is going to release results from Maricopa County in about an hour. That should clarify the race. It's Phoenix, but also Sherrif Joe territory.

That's all state policing of votes. No SC has no say in that. The state could decide to vote by democrats flushing at 6PM and Republicans at 8PM. The supreme court has nothing to do with votes. Maybe if you put in a poll tax etc but nobody does any of that. Bush Gore was stepping over bounds. The Florida bicameral was allowed to vote in a contested race:

From what I'm hearing, this might be the biggest turn out of voters for many, many years. Whatever else is fucked up about American democracy, this has to be a good thing...

...so any vote for Trump would be tainted by walking Covid super-spreaders and should be rejected as tainted?
I wonder how many cases will arise from this vote especially amongst election workers.

And his prediction that Mueller (or was it Comey) would be in jail by now. He should ask for his money back from Fox News.

Looks like there's about around a 2.5% spread in favour of Biden in the popular vote. Trump won last time on a similar difference against That Nasty Woman so I can see why he might want to chance his arm on stopping counting while he was ahead, but it seems strategically counter-productive to go for it while he's behind. Then again, the electoral college is a weird and unpredictable beast and Trump is a rampant self-entitled narcissist. Operatic performers with an unhealthy BMI are still warming up.

The problem is that Trump supporters are confused about whether to call for a recount, while stopping the count.

Here is Pucker's take:
On Wednesday's installment of The Tucker Carlson Show on Fox News, the show's host said that "many Americans will never again accept the results of a presidential election," because of lawsuits filed by the campaign for President Donald Trump alleging possible voter fraud in key swing states.

"What happened last night could not have been worse for this country for our children for our grandchildren for future," Carlson said. "The outcome of our presidential election was seized from the hands of voters where, of course, it rightly belongs and now resides in the control of lawyers and courts and highly partisan clearly corrupt big-city bureaucrats."

"So no matter what happens next," he continued, that is a tragedy. Many Americans will never again accept the results of a presidential election."

Had it gone the other way, he'd be the first to say "suck it up, losers!"

The Biden campaign should start printing the t-shirts.

Biden has no chance. Trump's spiritual adviser is praying for Trump.
