Georgia is down to 600 votes, so it will flip.
There is an issue though that Georgia has some military bases, and so Trump is hoping there may be some overseas ballots coming.

This could swing it the other was but would be a tad hypocritical, perhaps?

And then he'll declare a national emergency, send troops onto the streets to restore order, and blame the unpatriotic radical left.

Republicans have nowhere to go other than with Trump now. Trumpism is their only doctrine.

Apparently Zimbabwe are appalled by Trump's double standards.

The report will read: We found the president's actions troubling, but they did not rise to the level of abject corruption.

'Special Counsel’s Office Opens Hatch Act Investigation Into Trump’s Use of White House for Campaign Events'
The U.S. Office of Special Counsel has opened an investigation into whether President Donald Trump’s campaign’s use of the White House violated federal law. Rep. Bill Pascrell (D-NJ) called on the watchdog to conduct a probe on Election Day, to which the agency responded that it “was not consulted on the decision to use space inside the Eisenhower Executive Office Building as a campaign ‘war room.” The office’s statement also read, “Our Hatch Act Unit has opened an investigation into these allegations to determine if the Hatch Act was violated.” The Hatch Act prohibits the use of federal property for campaign events. The Republican Party hosted its election convention at the White House as well, presenting not only speeches but also a naturalization ceremony presided over by acting Homeland Security Secretary Chad Wolf.

Trumpists: 'Save us, Amy Coney Barrett. You're our only hope!'
Trump campaign legal adviser: "We're waiting for the United States Supreme Court - of which the President has nominated three justices - to step in and do something. And hopefully Amy Coney Barrett will come through"

Meanwhile, in deepest Trumpistan:

'Man who died of coronavirus wins election for North Dakota state legislature'
Republican David Andahl, who died from Covid-19 in October, won his election to the North Dakota state legislature on Tuesday.

Andahl, a "Trump Republican" according to the Grand Forks Herald, ran a primary challenge against a powerful Republican and won earlier this year. He was then endorsed by influential figures like Gov. Doug Burgum, who won re-election on Tuesday.

He was elected to the state House of Representatives for the 8th District alongside fellow Republican Dave Nehring, North Dakota election officials declared.

Andahl was 55 when he died on Oct. 5, less than a week after he was admitted to the hospital for coronavirus infection.

What's the name of the guy at the map screen doing the election shift on CNN together with Cuomo? When he explains things, he looks so intimidated, like a shy student explaining how the porn magazine got under his mattress to his evangelical father.

Well Trump's plan was to get ahead in enough states to declare victory and stop the count.

Problem with that is Biden will be ahead with Nevada and Arizona if he does this.

I do suspect that they are twiddling their thumbs, and not counting very fast - so that either Georgia and/or Pencilveinia flip to Biden.

:ddpan: Chortle. :shifty:
Georgia has flipped already. Biden heads Trump by 917 votes now, and he will extend that lead. Extrapolating the trend in Pennsylvania, he will win Pennsylvania by about 88,000 votes by the time the counting is done.

Proving 88,000 fraudulent votes in court is going to take more than just repeating what Cucker Farlson says.

Biden now 3.8m votes ahead according to the unofficial NYT tally. That's seen Biden put on c.1m votes since yesterday to Trump's c.0.5m.
