I'm just grateful it was Wayne County, Michigan and not Wayne, New Jersey involved in these Republican shenanigans.

I can't have the name of my favourite band besmirched.

Let's move on to Wisconsin.
In Wisconsin, all 72 counties completed canvasses of local election results, a spokesman for the state elections commission said Tuesday. Following the canvasses, Biden led Trump in Wisconsin by 20,608 votes, or about 0.6 percent, according to the Associated Press. Given that the margin separating the two candidates is less than 1 percent, Wisconsin law now allows for Trump to request a recount.

However, state law requires that the request be made no later than the end of Wednesday and that the Trump campaign must submit payment up front to cover the costs of the process if it wishes to proceed — which the state has pegged at $7.9 million for a statewide recount.

So another county in Georgia has "discovered" thousands of votes, and again the majority were for Trump. These "discoveries" are step changing the vote margin in Georgia towards Trump. Added to today's decision by the Michigan county board to refuse to certify the results there, its shaping as a pretty useful day for Trump. Certainly not how the vast majority of the media are reporting things, huh?

Damn lucky the republicans uncovered the dastardly plot by the republican Governor of Georgia to try and hide those 800 Trump votes. only 12,929 to go

Now the Wayne county has had "another vote" which completely reverses its earlier decision and will now certify the outcome in a unanimous decision. That all sounds above board.

Now it is, yes.

Reconfirming the exact same result us hardly dodgy. Reversing it would be the issue

How dare they enforce the rule thats existed for 100s of years.

What a pile of assholes

 

[bourbons]

This is awesome, watching Trump lose again every day.

Thought election day and maybe a few after might bring some lols, but never did I imagine in my wildest fantasies this multi-week, continuous, slow motion smack down. All the orange roughy's own doing too.

**** its glorious

Trump made a bit of a historical blunder during his Fourth of July “Salute to America” speech Thursday when he said that the Continental Army “took over the airports” from the British during the American Revolutionary War in the 1770s.

 

[Crankyhawk]

False. Except for on foreign policy.

C'mon guys, how about we just forget the last 4 years, give ole FK a clean slate? I'm a good bloke, everyone says

Forgiveness would be the truly Christian thing to do. Doubt many you have had conflict with are Christian though

Again I'll ask. Why do you think the Taliban were so happy to endorse Trump as the person they wanted to win in the US.

And it isn't because he was going to take Miss Universe to Afghanistan!

They want him to set up some golf courses on mine-fields and build a Trump Tower of Babel in Kabul.

 

[bourbons]

None of the above disputes the fact that 6000 Trump votes were allocated to Biden before it was discovered and rectified. "Operator error" vs "computer glitch" doesn't matter. It's still the third sizable clutch of Trump votes "lost" during the count.

No mate - if you actually read the links, the issue was publication of the unofficial tallies. There was never any error with the actual count. Once discovered early on the morning after election day, election officials stopped using the software and manually updated the unofficial tallies based on the official count.

That the public unofficial tally didn't match the numbers they were looking at internally for the actual count is the very reason why the issue was identified.

800 hundred yesterday, 400 today.

Sorry, such facts don't fit the narrative. Its obviously 'FAKE NEWS' !!!!

The issue being that some sort of handling error assigned 6000 Trump votes to Biden before it was rectified. How the **** can that happen? Same with these caches of Trump votes being "found" 2 weeks after the election.

Yep indeed it does, sounds like the 2 dissenting GOP county board members finally decided to join the rest of us back in reality.

Better late than never I guess.

Wow amazing looks like Georgia will turn to Trump.

Because he's a dove and not a hawk? Who gives a flaming **** about Afghanistan, why do we (the west) need to be there? I feel confident that if it were your daughters/sisters/mothers being bombed there that you would change tune. I thought being anti war was common sense for any decent person? The worst sin Obama committed was persuading the left to support the war machine.

Again - that never happened. Votes for Trump were not assigned to Biden in the official count - the numbers being posted to a website were wrong. The count being right was the thing that alerted them to the issue in the first place.

The Antrim County Clerk’s Office has been working diligently to review the results and identify the source of discrepancies discovered early this morning. It is clear that the Unofficial results posted at 4am this morning were incorrect and have been removed. The vote totals counted by the election software did not match the printed tabulator tapes, which official results are based upon.

Read the posts mate, it helps.

I think you are underestimating the complexity of elections in the US mate - simply put, those errors would be within 0.001% margin of error in any election. Its just not enough to move the needle from respectable to dumpster fire of an election. Sure, the system in america is crap compared with others but suggesting these small errors are material enough to invalidate the result of the election is asking a bit much.

Lucky the republicans are there to stop this obvious fraud by the entirely republican ran state of Georgia

You are acting like the missing votes were 100% Trump votes they were just missing votes which happened to slightly swing Trump's way

[Monkey King]

Yeah but that is now the third instance of votes for Trump either not being uploaded ...

Yeah what's that, about 2000 Biden votes found to have not been uploaded now?
