Trump is scrambling and issued a 3rd lawsuit for georgia which he may have won anyway:

President Donald Trump’s campaign and the Georgia Republican Party have filed a lawsuit against the Chatham County Board of Elections asking a judge to order the county to secure and account for ballots received after 7 p.m. on Election Day.

State party chair David Shafer said in a statement Wednesday night that they planned to sue in a dozen counties.

The lawsuit alleges that a Republican observer watched a poll worker take unprocessed absentee ballots from a back room and mix them into processed absentee ballots waiting to be tabulated.

In Georgia, ballots must be received by 7 p.m. on Election Day in order to count. Chatham County contains Savannah and leans Democratic.

A woman who answered the phone at the Chatham County Board of Elections offices declined to comment.

Georgia is among a handful of states that The Associated Press has not called. In the race to the 270 electoral votes needed to win the presidency, Democrat Joe Biden currently has 264 while Trump has 214.

___

HERE’S WHAT YOU NEED TO KNOW ABOUT THE PRESIDENTIAL RACE:

Democrat Joe Biden is six electoral votes short of clinching the White House after flipping Michigan. Biden also won Arizona and Wisconsin, two other states that Republican Donald Trump carried in 2016 over Hillary Clinton. States still up for grabs include Nevada (6 electoral votes), Pennsylvania (20 electoral votes) and Georgia (16 electoral votes).

I see Sam Harris as a very methodical thinker and a loyal adherent to the liberal ideas in the form which makes sense to me. His views on abortion, LGBTQ, drugs, religion, freedom of expression etc are straight out of the 1980s liberal textbooks. What put him on a collision path with the modern progressives is that when the ugly, oppressive face of Islam came into public view he naturally sided with those who get beheaded or stoned for transgressing religious edicts - which got him expelled from the left camp. He is still as left as they come on all of the 1980s issues but he is perceived to have moved from left to right, again, without changing his views. His problem is that he is not "right" in any other way so stranded in the political vacuum he is vulnerable to attacks from both sides. Registered democrat.

He is also in the elite group of westerners who came into personal contact with the last generation of the great Tibetan buddhist teachers of the 20th century.

They need to follow Michigan's example and make the counting more secret:

Inability to count votes?  That's some stupid shit.  138 million votes have already been counted.

No idea who exactly is being accused. There's also 300k missing ballots and Biden is down 300k votes in Pennsylvania neither proves anything accept that trump is the one that wanted all counting to stop

This has been an incredibly efficient election, so far.  I have no idea why you think it hasn't.

What does that have to do with anything? 

Can you name a country that has more quickly counted 138 million votes during a global pandemic that has millions of active infections?

Besides, what's more important?  Speed or Accuracy?

If Nevada turns red then Biden will likely lose. It's pretty close still

Scott Adams is very smart and introduces the angle of persuasion which I was not aware of before listening to him. Libertarian on all social issues and ambivalent about global issues.  Became perceived as "right" when he observed in 2015 that Trump has a powerful set of PR skills which could get him elected. Largely apolitical, does not vote.

I connect with him because his logic when looking at social processes from persuasion angle is unique

Nevada won't turn red, though.  The uncounted votes are from Clark county, mostly, where Biden is beating Trump's ass.  Also, they're all mail-in ballots, which biden has been dominating in as well.

Yeah I don't think Nevada is going to turn red either. They should just fucking call the end of it, Nevada a win for Biden and just have Biden win the presidency and be done with it.

I can't imagine it going faster than this, TBH.  I don't even really understand what your beef is.  We have never had final numbers on election day or the day after.  That's not anything new.  It seems like you have unrealistic expectations, frankly.
