Joe Biden has steadily chipped away at President Trump’s lead in Pennsylvania. An initial gap of 10 percentage points has shrunk to three percentage points — about 200,000 votes.
Ballots are still being counted.
Now:
Donald Trump Incumbent 3,215,983 or 50.72%
D Joe Biden 3,051,565 or 48.13%
89% in, leaves about 600 000 to count.

Man in ‘BBQ, BEER and FREEDOM’ Tank Top Shuts Down Press Conference: ‘THE BIDEN CRIME FAMILY IS STEALING THE ELECTION!’
A supporter of President Donald Trump, who was wearing a “BBQ, BEER, FREEDOM,” t-shirt crashed a Wednesday press conference to yell that “the Biden crime family is stealing the election.”
Just as Clark County Registrar of Voters Joe Gloria was telling reporters that the Nevada county was not prepared to give an update on election numbers, the MAGA loon ran up to the podium shouting conspiracy theories.
Former Deadpsin writer/editor Tim Burke took to Twitter to share the outburst:

Re: US Election 2020
Well, I was wrong when I said 40% of America was fascist. Votes are still coming in, but it looks like about 48% of American voters are fascists.

America will have to contend with that fact.
The moment every Donald Trump opponent has been waiting for is at hand: Joe Biden seems to be taking the lead. So why am I not happy?
I am certainly relieved. A Biden victory would be an infinitely better result than a Trump win. If Trump were to maintain power, our child-king would be unfettered by bothersome laws and institutions. The United States would begin its last days as a democracy, finally stepping over the ledge into authoritarianism.
A win for Biden would forestall that terrible possibility.
But no matter how this election concludes, America is now a different country. Nearly half of the voters have seen Trump in all of his splendor—his infantile tirades, his disastrous and lethal policies, his contempt for democracy in all its forms—and they decided that they wanted more of it. His voters can no longer hide behind excuses about the corruption of Hillary Clinton or their willingness to take a chance on an unproven political novice. They cannot feign ignorance about how Trump would rule. They know, and they have embraced him.
Sadly, the voters who said in 2016 that they chose Trump because they thought he was “just like them” turned out to be right. Now, by picking him again, those voters are showing that they are just like him: angry, spoiled, racially resentful, aggrieved, and willing to die rather than ever admit that they were wrong.

Re: US Election 2020
Can we get some legislation drawing the line somewhere, fucking anywhere, regarding the kind of lies that a President may tell? Surely nobody in Washington wants to mislead the American people about the fundamentals of our election process?

Re: US Election 2020
You have plenty of legislation Sean. The incumbent president just thinks that it's unconstitutional or something, for some reason.
