Did he stop the counting? I thought he said he was told that counting has stopped.
I just listened to him on stage. It’s frankly quite frightening that an autocratic narcissist who is openly trying to stop voting in a democratic election will most likely be re-elected.
He also said that they (The Democrats) were going to the courts (I haven't heard that they are?) but then went on to say that he intended to go to the Supreme court. TBH it was a bizarre speech even for the The Donald. There were so many inaccuracies and outright lies in his speech even by his standards. It did indeed sound like the start of a Coup. Frightening, shocking, but yet not totally unexpected.Did he stop the counting? I thought he said he was told that counting has stopped.
The precedent is already there from last month (I think) when the Federal Supreme Court backes the North Carolina State Supreme Courts decision to extend from 3 to 6 days the amount of time after the election postal votes could be received. The ballot had to be post marked on or before the 3rd but could be received and counted up to the 9th.He also said that they (The Democrats) were going to the courts (I haven't heard that they are?) but then went on to say that he intended to go to the Supreme court.

Yep, he'll have a clear run of it next time. Does anyone seriously think he won't go for a third term if he wins this time?I don't know who is going to win, but if we assume the virus hitting this year damaged Trump, he would have romped home otherwise...

Reports of highest turnout for a century...
It's the vote suppression they are worried about.The voter suppression didn't work so well then.

Pennsylvania don't usually have a large postal vote. This time it's massive.I have to say I find it all a tad confusing. What is the delay with votes in Pennsylvania? How can California and New York complete their vote counts but Pennsylvania will need a few days? Are votes being counted by Amish community or something? Are they refusing to use electronics and instead using an abucus?
I don't think it's probable that he'll win Georgia. As of now 94% of the votes have been counted and Trump is ahead by 2.2%.If Biden wins Wisconsin, Nevada and Georgia - which seems probable, he wins, 271-267 in the EC.

I think it'll all come down to Pennsylvania. Trump is ahead 55.8% to 43.1% but only 64% of the votes have been counted so most or all of the postal ballots are still to be counted and they should be mostly Democrat.
Yes, it looks like there's about 600,000 votes still to be added in heavily Democratic counties with Trump ahead by 100,000 at the moment. Good news!My understanding re; Georgia is that a lot of the votes to be counted are in Atlanta, which is heavily Democrat?
It became a political statement, much like wearing a mask. If Republicans has used the postal vote more Trump wouldn't be on his way to the Supreme Court to suppress their votes.Re; postal votes, with the virus, is it possible more Republican voters (.eg. older) would opt for mail in?
Yep, about 250,000 in 2016 so it'll probably be higher this time but there's been nearly 100 million postal votes in total.Many in the Armed Services will employ postal votes too.
