Expected.
The last time Wiscy was recounted it made a difference of 200.
Biden is up 20k.
I think the most encouraging thing about this entire election so far is that nothing shady that was predicted has taken place.

Trump saying something stupid and whining that he is going to lose was expected. He is like the superfan that always blames the refs when his team doesn't win....even if they lose by double digits.
Other than, you know, declaring victory and saying from the White House that only votes in favor of him should be counted, sure.
That’s not shady if you agree with it!

If there are 200,000 votes left uncounted as i've read, Biden would need around 143,000 of them, which is 71%.
As I said before it's possible considering where they are coming from - but that's a high percentage if those numbers are right.
There is roughly 325-350k votes remaining in Georgia

And if that's true he'd need around 220k or 63%.

I thought I saw their SoS say it was 200,000.

It's going to be stupid close.

Like i said, trump saying stupid things was to be expected. Only trump did that and it is largely irrelevant. It did nothing to help his cause. Just because he said something stupid doesn't make it so. Even his lapdog fox news has bashed him all day for saying something so untrue and reckless. Some of the biggest named trump supporters have bashed him for doing so. It gave me a lot of faith that ridiculous fears like 3rd and 4th terms were silly fear mongering and would NEVER have any chance of coming to fruition. Nobody would support it.

Asking for a recount in close states was going to occur regardless of the winner of that state....and rightfully so. I would rather they get it done right than get it done fast. And they will. And biden will be the next president. And he will be better than trump.

Kind of seems like we're in that last minute of the game where Trump/Memphis is stepping up to the free throw line in Georgia.

Well, the exact number is certainly TBD.

Might be over.

Remaining question may be if a WI recount even matters.

As Lob so eloquently stated multiple times last night.

It’s over.

Trump has to win all remaining states on the board.

I don't think it's over.

It depends on the outstanding ballots. Early mail votes were heavily D, but I read somewhere that the late arriving have been R.

It is over, but not for Biden. Arizona is very likely to go to Trump.

You would like to know, wouldn't you? ;) Need to learn how to search for sources better. Trump is projected to win by 30,000 votes -- votes are still coming in from in person voting.

Seems like a lot of urban ballots remaining in MI and NV. But, it sure is hard to tell what is still out there this year.
