The only time it would go to Congress is if neither candidate reached 270 ECs. Since Trump is almost certain to lose PA, AZ, and NV, that option really isn't open to them by trying to slow down a hand count in GA. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GA's GOP leadership just pisses me off, ever since the Abrams BS they pulled, so I just personally dont want them to get away with it again (even if it doesnt matter in the grand scheme of things). and when i said "go to legislature", i meant GA's legislature, not the US congress. if counts arent done in time, or there are legit reasons that the vote counting is off, certain states allow the state legislature to then pick electors. not saying that's going to happen, but i can see that as one of the plans the GA GOP is trying with delaying certification. again, it doesn't matter to biden, just BS Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Georgia law says if the race is within a certain percentage; there's an automatic recount. The Georgia race meet that standard; so there's an automatic recount. How, they recount is up to Georgia. You just make sure when the recount is going on, people are observing the recounting to make sure no shenanigans' are happening. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hooper Posted November 12, 2020 Share Posted November 12, 2020 Biden crushed him. 5 million more votes nationally. More people should be talking about that. Electoral college changes the narrative. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Edit: Just looked it up. Roosevelt took 60.8% of the popular vote in 1936, while Landon won 36.5%. Still, Trump will always be the biggest loser in my heart.

Die Hard Posted November 12, 2020 Share Posted November 12, 2020 If Trump and Melania don’t do up Christmas, Joe should totally come out and state, “I thought they weren’t going to cancel Christmas?!

Die Hard Posted November 12, 2020 Share Posted November 12, 2020 I’m really interested in how Biden is going to roll. He’s certainly put out messaging that he’s trying to stay above the rhetoric and messaging of division. And I would totally respect him if he lived up to that standard. But in the debates..... I saw some ‘bite’ in Joe. And I hope he brings some of that to his Presidency. I hope it wasn’t just for show. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tshile Posted November 12, 2020 Share Posted November 12, 2020 Honestly if everyone would just shut up, turn off all the political stuff, and just follow the court cases.... I mean it’s plain as day what’s going on 😂 These guys can’t get anything in when it comes to evidence. Like, actual evidence. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NoCalMike Posted November 13, 2020 Share Posted November 13, 2020 Tshile said it best, ignore the noise and just pay attention to the actual court cases where lawyers face the loss of their career and a whole lot more if they go in front of a judge and lie about this stuff. This is why all the noise is on blogs, Fox, OANN, etc etc etc but what these outlets are continually quiet about are the actual court cases that keep getting tossed over and over due to lack of standing. Re: Democratic lessons. For me the major lesson is that when you are a party that tries to be big tent, with big ideas, and appeal to many different people, every single election is learning how to tow the line and keep everyone happy. Trump was an easy foe to get behind ousting because he's.....Trump. This shouldn't be a progressives VS moderates thing because the truth is you need both. We learned from 2020 that the white grievance voter is still a massive base of voters when you have someone like Trump that can tap into it and bring them out from under every rock. Trump did improve with minorities across the board but it was still a huge miscalculation by Dems that they had somehow won over a lot of these "ashamed I voted for Trump in 2016" mythical voters.
