  1. Number of votes that move from one party to another in recount have been max ~300 votes in past and there is no indication that this time would be different. But same thing would happen as would had if Clinton had won after recount, winner of election would change. But change for that happening when there needs to be multiple over 10k vote changes is smaller than winning 10 times in row in lottery, because counting systems that states use are very reliable and changes happen usually only in ballots that have been counted by hand for some reason or another.
  2. Not Gromnir, but ruling has little impact, as ballots that arrived after election day 8 PM were already separated from others and have not been included in current tally and USPS reported that they had processed less than 5k of those ballots, so as things currently stand they don't impact outcome of PA's result regardless of decision if they should or should not included in final result. Ruling will only move day when PA is able to give final count.
  3. In political environment where people vote party over policies, fifth of the voting population heavily favors opposite party and said fifth will continue to vote for next 60-70 years. So it looks like quite advantage for democrats in at least couple next elections until they again piss of their voters
  4. Votes by young people (18-29, who made 17% of total votes with 53% participation) predict some problems for republicans in future
  5. Macro has advocated tougher immigration policies whole time he has been president Last year he speak against France taking refugees and passed measures to make immigration to France more difficult seek baring refugees accessing medical care. Also he brought up immigration to EU multiple times in EU's meetings in seeking to get common immigration policy in EU and looking ways to prevent immigrates coming from Africa. 2018 his government passed law to decrease asylum processing time to 90 days and doubling time detention time in asylum cases from 45 days to 90 days. 2017 Macron blamed France poor economy on France refugee policy and so on. I am not sure why people think that Macron is some how pro refugee / immigrant or even liberal in American political spectrum sense. He is liberal only when he is compared to Marine Le Pen and co, but there is reason why people in France have protested against Macron from get-go after they wake up from their ecstasy that Le Pen didn't won the election and old parties were given finger.
  6. C-SPAN is broadcasting organisation dedicated to broadcast all US government events and messages and it is mainly funded by those broadcasting companies that you want to be forced to broadcast US government's message. NPR is meant to be free public radio, which is why it gets part of its funding from local and federal governments. Because of its role to broadcast governments messages and government sanctioned educational programs.
  7. It is technically independent from government control like for example our (Finnish) national broadcasting company, but as C-SPAN's headquarters locate in Capitol Hill, Washington, D.C. and their focus is to broadcast government's sessions and other events, like Trump's press conferences, I am not sure if it's indecency prevents government using it as their broadcasting platform
  8. C-SPAN and NPR edit: and PBS:Public Broadcasting Service
  9. And Sinclair Broadcast Group owns big sunk of local broadcasters and gives them scripts which they need to read in their news broadcasting and they are even more conservative than Fox. Democrats not getting coverage on local broadcasting has higher probability than Republicans not getting coverage on national broadcasters programs
  10. So as government only has power to collect trillions of dollars taxes and use where ever they want and they have control over military and they also have their own broadcasting and radio networks and postal office in their command they need private companies forced to broadcast their message as otherwise people may not hear it. Seem fair
  11. Same system is used in Texas, the entire states of Hawaii and Oklahoma, half of Washington and Colorado, and certain counties in Ohio, California, Idaho, Illinois, Indiana, Kentucky, Oregon, Pennsylvania, and Virginia System is done by Texan company Hart InterCivic, this is not first time their system is accused of switching votes, but for some reason they get more states as their customer in each election
  12. "Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances."
  13. I will give you link as soon as media stops censoring me So maybe when we can yet again have developer convention etc. where I am allowed to speak that is not done through MS Teams
  14. Big part of the freedom of speech is that media is independent of government and has freedom to decide what they cover and not cover PS. US media didn't cover my speech during Trump speech also so he isn't only one who was censored by evil media corporations
  15. Interesting how it is mark of dictature when opposition candidate is winning and private companies don't broadcast government's message
  16. Twitter thread: one man's fight against conspiracies about the election
  17. Mysteriously in swing state Florida there seem to be quite lot counties where votes went only to Trump. But as they are for Trump we know there was now cheating in these republican controlled counties
  18. It is cooler when you think that it may fit in top 10 popular vote wins in US history and Biden can still lose the election
  19. California alone will increase that margin still with couple million as only 66% of votes are counted there and Biden is getting over 65% of the votes and currently they have counted ~ 11.5 million votes. New York and Washington will probably increase margin with another million votes.
  20. Clearly they found 300k new ballots in Arizona to prevent it flipping to blue
  21. it should not be surprise considering that Milwaukee is largest county in Wisconsin, there were ~2 million absentee ballots cast in Wisconsin, democrats campaigned people to vote early, where republicans campaigned against it and got court order to prevent counting absentee votes before today's votes were counted in Wisconsin. But for some reason those ~2 million absentee votes now come as surprise to people and republicans
  22. Considering that Clinton got similar numbers in Milwaukee in 2016, when Trump surprisingly won Wisconsin, so it should be more suspicions if more popular democratic candidate didn't get there same result Some reason nobody seems to be suspicious towards those counties which Trump won with 70-80% of the vote
  23. 70% of Milwaukee's 450k votes are cast for Biden
  24. They have some grey logic behind how they mark mail in and early votes, which they are currently counting. Considering that all but two of their counties report 100% of votes counted and those two which have still votes uncounted have less than 10k votes uncounted, but they report that ~5% of total votes have not yet counted.
  25. it is still uncalled because there is 1.4 million uncounted mail in votes and Biden has received 77% of those mail in votes that have been counted. So it looks like PA will end in close to 50-50 situation in the end, win marginal will be only couple thousand votes, so it is probably that we will see court fights over PA's results
