NBC has called Michigan for Biden! Almost there! Some networks have called Arizona for Biden already, NBC has not. He just needs Nevada, Pennsylvania, or Georgia (plus Arizona).

He's not going to get PA soon, if at all, but Arizona is surely in the bag. I don't think he's getting Georgia, but he doesn't need it. He will get Nevada and that's game, set, match.

We are almost there, keep the faith. <3<3<3

Secretary of State for AZ was just interviewed. Voters are over-performing in 3 major counties for the Biden win. Also, Georgia voters are over-performing in favor of Biden, in the Atlanta area. Georgia just might go Blue, soon. I feel the excitement as we watch history in the making. What a fabulous moment of joy, once we cross the finish line. Biden and Harris are showing up as Leaders of the American Democracy, and heart felt thanks go out to all voters and organizers who put in over-the-top efforts to help save our country.

The pundits are all talking about tRump refusing to "go quietly", but I'm starting to get just a lil' nervous about the reaction/repercussions from his nutjob supporters. From everything that Dear Wife and I have been seeing, hearing and reading about, the yahoo contingent here in Texas might be inclined to throw a violent tantrum over their loss. From our perspective, we definitely have some crazies here in this state.
It may get knarly......here in Texas and in other places. ~Theo~

It isn't just Trump.
Biden may very well win the Presidential election but he will have to contend with the fact that over 68 million of his fellow citizens voted for Trump, a bigoted, racist, sexist, right-wing neo-fascist with a penchant for rousing all the vilest impulses of his followers. Trump's followers are morally corrupt but it isn't just Trump who corrupted them. They were already there. All they really needed was a "leader" to come along and tell them it was ok to be amoral and behave like beasts. It is a sad thing to see the veneer of "exceptionalism" peeling away. Question is: what can Biden et al do about that or is it already too late.

Georgia Senate Races
Cross your fingers that David Perdue drops below 50% of the vote in his Senate race against Jon Ossof. He is at 50.2% as I post this. Or even better, Ossof goes over 50% and wins. I'm not sure that's possible.
If Perdue goes under 50% the race goes to a run-off in January. Reverend Warnock is already in a run-off against Loeffler. Right now, the Senate is 48 R to 48 D (includes the 2 independents who caucus with Democrats). 4 outstanding races. The 2 Georgia races above, and 2 Republicans Tillis (NC) and Sullivan (Alaska) are leading their races. If the 2 Democrats were able to win the runoffs, the Senate would probably be 50-50. Vice President Kamala Harris would break tie votes and Schumer would be majority leader. Crazy!

PS/ at this hour, Michigan is BLUE!!! Yay!!!
Quote:
I will be forever grateful if votes lead toward a shift in power that leads to members of the democratic party taking charge of what is left of our democracy and mending the damage done by TP (et al). I see tonight that the AP is reporting that Biden and Harris have 264 electoral votes and that they also lead in the popular vote (71.9 M votes and counting). It's going to happen, whether TP clogs up the system with lawsuits. In fact, this is what is so upsetting to me: That TP will tap tax payer funding for his litigations which proves he is fired beyond all expectations. Fired. End of story. Now to march him out of office and make an example of him and his ilk before all the world, so this will deter crooked politicians from using our system for their own criminal purpose. Joe Biden and Kamala Harris for the win. Go Blue! And Go Blue Voters in America! Thank You So Very Much!!!

protestors outside PA ballot counting sites screaming stop counting votes
protestors outside AZ election facilities yelling keep counting votes One can only expect this kind of thing from Republicans. They have a particular mindset that belies logic. They really believe the right thing to do coincides exactly with the thing they want to have done. They see nothing wrong with telling Obama that he can't appoint a Supreme Court justice because there is only 8 months left before an election and then turning around and telling Democrats that Trump is going to appoint a justice 2 weeks before an election. These people and by these people I mean the Republican Party and all it's supporters, so if you identify as Republican and support this party in it's current incarnation I am talking to you, have no moral compass. Things are not right or wrong; things are only good or bad for Republicans. And this is the same party whose members always claim the high ground, who claim to be more religious, more patriotic, more righteous, more interested in what is moral than any other Americans. I guess it makes perfect sense to them because they are not plagued by trying to do what is honorable and fair. They only need to do what furthers their agenda. They have a Machiavellian moral code. The ends justify the means. The kind of morals the rest of us struggle with are off the table for them. They don't concern themselves with the kind of morality that encourages a person to be fair in all their dealings, to be accountable for their actions to their fellow humans and eventually to their god. This morality is of little consequence when put against getting their way and pushing their agenda. It's perfectly fine to be that type of person to these Republicans because they are certain in their righteousness. They truly believe one does not have do the right thing to be righteous. The ends justify the means because they know that the really right thing is exactly what they want it to be. They are not plagued by a conscience telling them to treat other people with empathy and fairness. That's why their leader thinks it's perfectly acceptable to make fun on a national stage of disabled people, military heroes and just about anyone he feels is beneath him, which pretty much encompasses the world. These morally superior, god fearing republicans truly believe the rest of us are so inferior as to not deserve equal treatment. I can't wait to have as my president a person who at the very least believes everyone, even those who don't agree with him, even those who haven't voted for him deserve equal treatment. I can't wait to have a leader who will put all Americans on equal footing and do his best for them all.

I saw something on fb that made me laugh. Apparently many people have become so anti intellectual that they are against counting!

Trumpian logic
Remember when Trump explained we only have so much covid because we keep testing. And now he is only losing because we insist on counting the votes.

Trump calls it some type of nefarious black magic, the rest of us call it counting.

The goons and Chump are also trying to stop counting in Michigan even though Trump is behind. Real stable geniuses there.
The goons are also surrounding a vote-counting place in Arizona. I hope most of the states can finish counting today so that those counting the votes - who are volunteers - will not be at risk anymore. What a disgrace.

I do wonder whether "The Trump Deplorables" ( Hillary should have gotten the Presidency just for that dead-on descriptive.) are "Republican" because they've read the policies and agree or because "Republicans" are now so Fascist and dirty that only they are willing to wrap their arms around them and give them a "respectable " name that doesnt include the words "White Supremecist" or " Fascist Neo-Nazi" in it.
Even Republican Neo-Cons don't want them. So, ask yourself, who are these "Republicans" that do? Who and what is in that welcoming tent for them? It's all just so ugly, so predictable, and so relentlessly reoccurring that it takes tremendous will ( and maybe blind faith ) to keep it from finally crushing the human spirit; and keep it from finally vacuum-sucking-out whatever is left of your soul.

@Bulldog: hey, here at home the TP-ers are still causing near accidents in traffic, with their tom-foolery. They have nearly hit me twice, on pupose, and i have no political identifiers on my vehicle. Those ppl are down right scary.
@C0LLETTE: RE Hillary Clinton. She is the epitomy of what brilliant women in politics can be. She is bold, out spoken, and calls it like it is. I think she is brilliant. And I think she nailed it the first time around. Off topic, sort of: I heard today on KBOO that the Democratic party is blooming into a multi-racial party of members and that the GOP is representative of the toxic White culture. I agree with that opinion expressed on air (Democracy Now). That is all I have right now. I await the Sledgehammer of the Democratic voters in states of Pennsylvania, Georgia, Nevada, and Arizona. *Go Blue*

Looks like we are going to have to wait one more day. I just heard that the Biden campaign is not expecting a final result until tomorrow.
