A friend of mine (Australian), who is fully invested in US politics and is as anti trump as anyone, just posted this on FB:  I think she's about ready to throw in the towel.  |

He's already talking about taking things to the Supreme Court cause of counting ballots that are "found" at 4 in the morning and is claiming victory. What the ever loving f@ck?? 😡

Ugh, he’s speaking. No one wearing masks, of course. How do you know he's lying? His lips are moving. Here's the deal. All the domestic terrorism we've witnessed in this country will amp up if Trump wins. They'll take it as permission to wreak havoc on anyone not white male or a female clinging to a white male. I can't live like that. |

He just wants to stop counting the votes now. Period. Forget that people legally voted by mail in ballots, including members of the military, he's the President so he gets to decide, right? And people voted for him!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I am devastated. I can’t believe this is my country. I’ve been crying off and on for the last couple hours. I lost an old friend to Covid today and then watching the election has left me very emotional. I just cannot believe that so many Americans can vote for a leader who has let down the country so bad managing the coronavirus. Even if Biden wins in the end it just is hard to imagine so many people voted for Trump. |

I've lost 3 classmates and on Sunday, a good friend lost her husband to covid. I can't believe anyone would vote for someone whose covid plan is to let it run rampant. |

I did not even know she was sick. It just happened so fast. And with Covid and isolating you just don't talk to people like you used to. I found out on Facebook. So sorry for your losses, it is so heartbreaking. |

If we get NV (which I think we will), Biden will have to get MI & WI, and we're at 270. Yeah but WI is not looking too good from what I can see, though I’m not listening to anything. But the returns are @ 94% and trump has a good lead at 51.1%. Unless they are expected to have a lot of mail in votes or a big urban area waiting for returns to come in? I saw we were tied again @ 47 for Senate but can’t figure out which Dem candidate was just projected a winner. Did anyone notice? eta: and I see a mistake (I made) when you quoted me. It should read 213 T according to Politico. |

BUT, there are over 200,000 absentee ballots not yet counted in Milwaukee County (blue lean). |

“Addressing an election party in the East Wing of the White House early Wednesday morning, President Trump falsely and prematurely claimed victory in key swing states and pledged to go to the Supreme Court to stop votes from being counted.”
“What he said: "This is a fraud on the American public. This is an embarrassment to our country. We were getting ready to win this election. Frankly, we did win this election," Trump falsely claimed.
"We want the law to be used in a proper manner. So we will be going to the U.S. Supreme Court. We want all voting to stop. We don't want them to find any ballots at 4 o'clock in the morning and add them to the list."
I swear this is going to drive me mad.

We're good in NV, so if Biden gets GA, that means he'll only need WI, and that's 270. Someone check my arithmetic, please.
