Vanity | 11/15/16

Posted on 11/15/2016 7:49:12 AM PST by pabianice

Trump remains ahead 47.6 to 47.3 with 100% counted. Well?

Ignore the last line. Wrong information.

Electing Hillary wasn’t their goal; what they wanted was a “D” White House going forward. The occupant was irrelevant.

NYT notes the SoS for Michigan said it will the end of November.

IIRC, Bush v Gore actually went 5-4.
. Neither NH nor NV nor MN has voter ID laws so I believe Trump won those as well. Should have been 326.

"with 100% counted"

"Waiting for 110% of the votes to be counted"

You win the internets

I’ve heard that they’ve not called it because there’s still the (unlikely) possibility of a recount request and AP won’t call a race until such a request passes the time limit. The Michigan SOS says there’s no expectation that Trump’s margin will change much.

7-2 decision said it was unconstitutional to cheery pick recounts and the whole state had to be recounted

5-4 decision said it had to be done by FLA established end date which was impossible so no recount

Sec of State in MI doesn’t call elections. The final results will be officially certified on 11/28. The AP can ‘call’ the election anytime they want, and the AP is what most news groups depend on.

They are looking for the missing 50,000 Hillary votes that were being held in reserve in case she did not win in the actual election. It seems that someone misplaced those ballots. [sarc]

Regarding the December deadlines for certifying electors, in 2000 with the Florida SC diddling and fiddling with the votes there was a real possibility the Florida would miss getting their electoral votes certified in time.

The Florida legislature was prepared to award those votes to George Bush in the event.

NYT not the only one. Even Fox News still shows him at 290.

The secretary of State of the mitten state is a Republican who has a history of fighting vote fraud. So I do not think we need to worry on that level.

The main decision was 7-2

There were three separate decisions.

>> “They use optical scan ballots.” <<

No es problema.

People sometimes make mistakes marking their ballots, and their wiser betters see these mistakes and correct them.

Nothing to worry about; they’ll find all those Hillary votes that were mistakenly marked for Trump.

It's been called.

The MSM doesn't want to believe it.

But Ruth Johnson called it almost a week ago.

It is over.

I don’t recall a long wait to call Michigan for 0 in his two elections.

What I meant was if there had been Voter ID laws in those states, Trump would have won them.
