PA now stands at 18,229

163.5K ballots left to count. Expected to be 70%+ in favor of Joe. You do the math (I'm way too drunk to do it myself at the moment). PARTAY!!!111
hello, this is the overnight shift's handoff report.  per the talking heads on CNN:
- biden is going to win PA.  TBD if it falls within the realm of an automatic recount (>0.5%).  this alone will get him declared president-elect tomorrow, likely shortly after noon.
- biden will win GA, with less than 0.5% margin, so an automatic recount will be triggered.  it won't change the outcome.
- trump will overtake in AZ, but it won't matter - see first point above.
Biden in the lead in Georgia!
Biden GA Margin:  + 1,096 (and growing)


Not sure these are accurate of what is left in GA
15,000 VBM, 20,000 provisionals and 9,000 military absentees with today’s deadline arrival. All will skew Biden 8-2…military ballots..if they arrive 6-4 Biden

A lot of thanks going out to Stacey Abrams as of late

Votes in GA
Biden - 2,444,980 votes (and counting)
Clinton - 1,877,963
Obama - 1,773,827
Obama - 1,844,123

Could bode well for the run offs, but not getting my hopes up yet
If Georgia holds, I will be insufferable to the trash-ass part of my family for the next four years. IN-SUF-FER-ABLE.
BIDEN LEAD IN PENNSYLVANIA OFFICIAL
Biden takes PA!
Decision Desk, one of the ten major news organizations that can call according to Twitter, has called PA and the election for Biden at 8:50am.
He just has the lead…hasn't been called

Also, there is almost no similarity to how bush took the election in 2000 to the way Trump is trying to get this to the supreme court
Gore was trying to get more votes counted in 1 close state, Trump is trying to get already counted votes thrown out in multiple states
is it too early to uncork the champagne? (asking for a friend)
Do you think Trump will concede via Tweet (and of course with some backhanded remarks in there)

Depends if you personal consider Decision Desk HQ a major news agency. Worst case scenario, the champagne needs to be on a lot of ice and the saber should be in your hand.

"Nobody in Montgomery County is surprised how long its taking to get to 270"
Vox and Business Insider have also called the election. What network will be first?
