About an hour ago I heard that the Ossoff- Purdue senate race in GA only needs Purdue's percentage of votes to drop by 0.017 to qualify for a run-off in January. Obama was campaigning in Georgia on Nov. 2 and pushing hard for Ossoff in his speech (yes, I watched the whole thing, lucyg ). It might pay off!

I had to work hard to keep scrolling on Facebook tonight - I’ve seen two people post fake rumors about votes for Biden and Giuliani swooping in to help with lawsuits. Even when multiple people pointed out that Snopes rated the rumor as false, she wasn't giving up on it.

Trump's lead in Georgia suffers another 3000 vote loss. Down to 28 521.

So, let me get this straight. When you disagree with something, you...protest? Like, take to the streets and chant and bang on windows and take over spaces to make your presence known?
Where have I heard about this before?
Wait a minute...

My thanks to all of you who've been educating people like me on this thread. I've been so bogged down with work that I barely leave the computer. I took a few hours off tonight but am back at it now. I've been checking in periodically for a few minutes here and there, and have been getting a solid education reading along here. I haven't posted, but I've been 'liking' a lot of posts.
Again, I bow down to all of you who haven't gotten any sleep in the past two days in order to keep us informed. You are the best.

I'm not especially religious but having her as a spiritual advisor makes a complete mockery out of religion. How do people not look at her and laugh?!!?

So how long is it going to be before we find out that Biden has won NV (fingers crossed!), thereby giving him the 6 electoral college votes he needs to get to 270? Do I keep hitting refresh for the next 6 hours before bedtime, or will it be longer than that?

I heard NV will update sometime around 9AM Pacific time. I also read Georgia is shut down for the night, so nothing new from them tonight. And then, NC won’t update until next freaking week!! That is when they’ll be done with the mail-in ballots.

I am going to throw up. Biden is leading only by 10K votes in AZ.
I am just not happy that this is what it came down to. And what is up with trump calling republican governors? Wtf does he want them to do?
I cannot sleep....

I’ve had 10 hrs away, just looked at the news and my head is spinning . Trump supporters are demanding counts to be stopped or continued, depending on how it suits Trumps cause? The numbers seem to be turning towards trump again ? I’m not sure my blood pressure can stand this - heaven knows what it’s like for you people involved and living with all of this!

Well dang it. I crashed for a while and I wake up to narrowed leads, both good and bad, but no results. Had to sleep though, we were too tired to continue our WW marathon...we stopped right before the last episode of season 1. That in and of itself is a miracle!
Ready for some good news this morning!
