It’s not impossible but there math is shrinking. There’s a reason McSally didn’t want these votes counted 

And there are posters on here that will argue, with a straight face, that the GOP does not supress votes or attempt to disenfranchise people as they are suing AZ to make them stop counting votes.

You must not read the Qanon posters reactions to the election.

Hell no I don’t!

But I said low-info not turtle fucking crazy.

[GSU&UT 1798]

BTW this is absolutely why McCain didn't resign early on despite his diagnosis, he and the GOP knew there was a strong chance a Democrat could win. Fuck him.

Smart move.

But the Qanon folks are a riot.

I got to thinking today how easily a democratic candidate could capture the Qanon audiences attention by just dropping a few subtle code phrases and signals.  

That group is ripe for the pickings.

Simmer down a little there.

mccain is the reason Obamacare is still alive and well. McCain voted to save the signature legislation of the same guy who kicked his ass in 2008 and crushed his presidential dream. 

 

I guess we’re lucky that the current Republican President is a pussy who received a bone spur exemption from military service ( vietnam) indefinitely. Trump dissed McCain for getting captured. I guess McCain just hated trump more.

I decided to share with you guys exactly what’s going on at texags. Should be good for a laugh. I’m quoting several posters below.

” Regardless of the outcome, the fact that this is so close is ridiculous. Our country's first female fighter pilot with an impeccable record against a woman like Sinema with red flags everywhere you look, in a state like AZ, should be a landslide. Meanwhile in Michigan, a charismatic black business owner and Apache pilot gets handily defeated by a generic democrat career politician. Then in our very own backyard, we have a self-described socialist gun control advocate nearly pulling an unprecedented upset and winning every single demographic under the age of 40. IN TEXAS

This whole country is going to be dealing with serious issues in the coming decades and I don't see any way to avoid it.”

 

” I hope someone with PTSD goes into the democratic headquarters of Arizona and Florida. And especially where their counting these votes. NATIONAL DISGRACE. RIGGED. DEMS STEALING ELECTION”

Since you're on Texags, start a thread about how unfair it is that MJ Hegar the war hero lost. See how it goes.

They don't argue is may exist, they simply want a factual basis behind these claims.  Something which is unassailable and be understood with absolute truthfulness.  You know, like a tweet from Sean Hannity.

[Agent47 157]

So, blue wave after all.

[gmr548 16463]

I had no idea what the actual result in FL was until now. Rick Scott, like AZ GOP, like Kemp in the run-up to the GA election, is behaving like a man who knows he loses if things are properly administered and counted. We'll see if it ends up going that way.

[Js1 85056]

I like Sinema’s position rn. Ask me tomorrow at 6 when the next batches of ballots drop. 

[gmr548 16463]

It still blows my mind that Gillum ran BEHIND Nelson too. Gillum is the one that really fired up the youth and the black vote. I don't want to jump to racism, but is there any rationale for that aside from ~50k old folks or whatever the spread is are just incapable of voting for a black man?

So do you just not acknowledge his vote later on the tax bill that removed the federal mandate, you know, what drives the whole god damned thing?

[swraith 336]

But since Tuesday night -

- Sessions fired
-Acosta mess
-Another shooting

So whatever narrative was in place about the midterms on Tuesday night is cooked in for the low-infos.

Even if all this flips - and Florida and Georgia Democrats turn water into wine - you’ll never convince the ADHD Trumpkins who bought the false “Dems didn’t really do well” spin otherwise.

Trying to convince the trumpkins of anything is a waste of time/resources. Besides, I would prefer they remain oblivious to any shifting sands beneath the political landscape.

If the Democrats are cheating then why aren't they way ahead??! Or ahead at all.

Hillary cheated too, they said. That's why she's president.

Gonna go out on a limb and say that very few people turned off by Gillum because they perceive him as a "socialist," which they find to be a dirty word, voted for Nelson. That voter probably thinks Nelson is a "socialist" too.

So that little quip from TexAgs about “hoping someone with PTSD goes into the recount places in FL, GA, and AZ” in light of today’s shooting by a man with PTSD is exactly the kind of violent wish I think it is, right?

I’m not just imagining that?

So where’s all the folks from earlier who were shitting on Brisket and others who were telling their stories about people who were jawing about heading to the border with weapons or blowharding about taking their country back?

That poster should be reported to the FBI. That’s the kind of stuff that gets shown on the news after a mass shooting and then everyone wrings their hands about missing the signs.

 I don't want more of Cletus Delbridge and his cousin Guppy or his sister Arthela at the polls making civic choices.  They aren't educated enough on the issues to have even a modicum of understanding and will just vote for some commercial they liked, or who a friend said is going to give them more stuff or even who isn't a Muslim or won't take their guns (true or not).  We keep pushing for more Cletuses (Cleti ...plural?) to vote we are fucked as a society.  I'm not saying ban Cletus or Guppy from voting, but I can find no rational reason to promote or encourage him to vote.   

that sounds very frustrating

So many experts on this thread.

One of my good friends, Matt Caldwell (R), ran for Ag Commissioner here in Florida.  He won the race by about 50,000 votes.  Guy traveled 100,000 miles, speaking to people in every county multiple times.  Works his ass off and is a stand up guy. 

But then, suddenly, more votes were found and his lead was down to 41,000.  And then suddenly, more votes were found and it was down to 20,000.  

And now, suddenly, more votes have been found.  And he's now losing the race by 501 votes.  Where did most of those votes come from?  Broward County.

You guys can mock the GOP all you want.  Say what you want about DeSantis and Scott, as though any of you know them, or have any association with them, outside of what you read.  Go ahead and pretend that voter fraud is a one-sided affair.  

But I'd hate to see a good man lose an election in a shady manner like this.

For those who didn’t/don’t believe Kemp and the GOP have a mission when it comes to suppressing voters
 

Again: those machines were sequestered by a judge as part of a federal lawsuit and could not be deployed. This has been reported in multiple places.

When these are your “facts” then it undermines any legitimate case you are trying to build.

Yes, much better for that good man to win an election by having thousands and thousands of citizens' votes not counted.

Good men like Scott who oversaw the largest Medicare fraud in US history, nah can’t be about him 

[Buzzrock 14867]

Kemp is the Secretary of State. I would expect him to be given that info. There’s no surprise here, everyone knew that he was SOS and would be staying in office during the election. He’s not the first.

Now, I’m on record saying that I don’t like this and think that in these cases the SOS should be required to recuse himself. But that’s not the law.

Counting all the votes is not voter fraud.  Please FUCK OFF with this narrative that counting outstanding votes is shady/unethical.  Suing to STOP votes being counted (looking at you, Arizona GOP) should be illegal.

Good men don't win elections just because they worked their ass off and are good men.  Beto went to all 254 counties in Texas, harded 100x harder than slimy sack of shit Ted Cruz and lost.

I don't understand what you're saying. Are saying those are not legitimate votes? If so, what's the basis for that accusation? Assuming those are legitimate votes,why should they not be counted? You want you're friend to win despite not being the choice of the majority of voters? Bizarre.
