    Got damn it my family is from Pittsburgh and I still want a Gritty t-shirt.

    Look, we’re all having fun with philly saving the day, but come next hockey season philly will go back to being the dumbest, most violent, and overly drunk sports city in the country. 

    they can enjoy their respect through Inauguration Day. After that they’ll go back to being fat drunk and stupid and they‘ll remind everyone for the next 50 years, as they vomit into a urinal, about that time they saved America.

    I'm sure Cruz is doing the circuit and complaining and saying what Trump COULD do, but what we haven't seen is Cruz, with extensive experience in election litigation, offer any legal insight as to how Trump can succeed. Nor does it seems like Cruz is hitting his rolodex and getting a coalition of legal hitters together to properly challenge the election. For example, I really want to know who recommended the Michigan attorney that slid that hot plate of garbage in front of the courts.

    Fair point. I guess exactly what you’d expect him to do is pound his fist on the table on tv while doing nothing to actively assist in the fiasco.

    It never dawned on me, but that is exactly what he is doing. Flood the zone and overwhelm the other party with legal fees and continuous responses to motions. If it's frivolous, who cares? You'll just end up in a conference room and finish it there. There is no flooding the zone in this case, though. You can't force a State to the conference table to give you what you want. You have to fight it out to the bitter end and to do that, you need to shore up your position as best you can before you engage. I'm just surprised that the attorneys of Republican PACs who are seasoned in this type of litigation jump out there and slow Trump's roll. Just look at Ted Cruz. He clerked for a Supreme Court Chief Justice and played a large role in Bush v. Gore. Did he even make a phone call to a Trump legal team? The possible silence from Cruz here would be insanely interesting for a political historian to dig into a decade from now.

    You must have missed ted Cruz on Hannity last night saying that all options up to and including invalidating the pa election should be on the table.

    AP waiting until lead gets over 0.5% recall threshold out of 6.5 million ballots, or margin of 32,500 

     

    If it were just mail in ballots they’d call it but there are potentially 100k+ provisional ballots that could go either way. 

    i expect that they’ll tip at least slightly in Biden’s favor but I understand why they haven’t called it.

    I guess the next question is how many of that nature are there?

    My guess was that it could be in the neighborhood of 75-100k. Could be less.

    there are 500k outstanding ballots split 3/2 D/R.

    Most of those would have been struck when people went to the polls and cast provisional ballots. 

    Which is another big chuck of votes. There might be more than 100k provisional ballots out there. I think some of the smaller counties that finished their count early already counted their provisional ballots.

    Perilous times, amigo.

    And it’s already quite clear, if Trump loses, millions of his supporters will not accept the result. Many, many of them have openly promised a violent response (seriously, they aren’t being shy about it). Some of them will follow through, because they’re fucking insane morons being egged on by an insane moron.

    What’s absolutely infuriating about this are the public figures, the broadcasters and talk show hosts calling for this violence aren’t going to lift a finger. They’re just riling up bubba and cleetus to get the guns and head down to the city.

    So a question about Pa: The Pa supreme court, due to a lawsuit filed by dems before the election, said that they could count mail in votes received three days after the election (the law said they have to arrive by election day). SCOTUS didn't grant a cert, so the state supreme court ruling is currently being followed.

    Question: I believe the mail ins received after election day have been segregated. Are those ballots being counted, and if so, are they showing up in the totals. In other words, if the supreme court, now with barret, decides to overrule the PA supreme court, will that change the numbers I'm seeing on the TV right now, which would probably hurt Biden?

    Anybody?

    The SoS only said that they were being segregated. Santorum claimed that his sources told him that they were counted. I haven’t heard anything other than that either way.

    This is what I see happening as well. They know Trump can’t hold onto PA but they want to let the state announce the lead change, and then they will call Pa and then the presidency for Biden. I wouldn’t be surprised if there is some level of discussion with Biden’s camp to get him ready to give a speech.

    You’re right. I think if making that call wasn’t making the call in the presidency it would have been called already.
