Blame George Lucas and every other Judas Catholic Bishop in the US who preach social justice but not saving babie. Trump lost because of the Catholic vote going to Biden.. the Church has been infiltrated by Left and those partial to the city destroyed at the same time as Gomorrah.

For a presidential tie-breaker the House votes by state congressional delegation. That means it’s not a lock for Biden.

Each state gets one vote.

This would only get Trump to 268 without AZ or NV so, yes, we still have to flip one of those (and win PA, hold on to GA). That one electoral vote loss in NE is big...could’ve removed AZ and NV from the equation.

I saw what I saw. Trump didn’t lose. I watched what happened and it’s not the first election I’ve watched. “We’ll count the votes in the morning” is not something that happens. Then, in the middle of the night suddenly the votes were counted. I saw what I saw.

The house votes as state delegations, not as a single body. This mean the lone house member from, say, Wyoming, has an equal say to the 53 members of the house representing California.

Would it be January or would it be December when all votes are to be in? Also even with picking up seats we still don’t have the majority.

Some weird results. CD-2 goes to the President and Golden defeats Crafts. Trump loses Auburn and Lewiston by wide margins, which was a shock to me, and yet the Maine gop picks up to state house seats in the Twin cities. And I think Collins won Lewiston.

Read your Constitution to find the answer. If it goes to the House it’s not decided by a typical vote, but rather a vote where each state’s House delegation gets one vote. Ie. CA, with its 53 member delegation gets the same vote as MT with its single member. I believe Rs are the majority in 28 state delegations, so Trump would likely win if tied.

It’s also quite possible that it could end up 270-268 in Biden’s favor. While it’s not likely, a faithless elector pledged to Biden conceivably could vote for any eligible person, making it 269-268-1. In that case it would also go to the House since no candidate would have received the majority of the EVs. The Constitution requires the House to select from the top 3 candidates, so whoever that faithless elector voted for would be eligible.

CONSPIRACY NUT ALERT — would anyone put it past the Clintons to bribe an elector and enough House members to make Hilary POTUS?

Right.. that’s why he needs to reverse the numbers in AZ or NV.

Trump wins one Electoral College vote in Maine’s 2nd Congressional District, NBC News projects.

agree...either Dekalb or another in the one state showed like 75% counted for the county then they all halted the count and an hour+ later it shows as zero counted and Boom...I stayed up till 6am and kept refreshing.

I weep for this country and I weep harder for my President...he gave it his all and he had to endure this.
