What does,”counted” mean. What was counted?

Because, despite the SoS calling Michigan for Trump Fox News doesn’t wish to hear it so they are covering their ears and going “NaNaNaNaNaNaNaNaNaNaNaNaNaNaNaNa Can’t Hear You!”

Well, we must consider that source. The Michigan DOS web site still lists their vote count as “unoffical.” We are still awaiting the Fat lady’s aria.

My personal opinion is that uncounted military ballots will ensure those states go to DJT.

Were they received in time to count? The lefties at the postal workers union have ways of delaying things...

As I understand it, absentee ballots in most states are NOT COUNTED if it wouldn’t make a difference in the outcome.

That is incorrect. There are two very important reasons that all ballots are counted. 1) down ballot races 2) parties (Libertarian, e.g.) wanting to have candidates on the ballot in subsequent years must have a good enough showing in the current election.

A state can be declared for a candidate without all ballots being counted if the number of absentee ballots remaining to be counted could not reverse the outcome. But eventually, they will all be counted.

I don’t think we’ll know the actual popular vote tally for some time. There are estimates out there that up to 3 million illegal aliens voted. Granted, all of those would not necessarily go to Clinton, but you can bet a vast majority of them did.

Some RAT dominated districts are probably still “finding” boxes of “misplaced” ballots.

The election is old news, they have moved on. Wiki is updated though.

Can't just anybody "update" Wiki? In which case, who cares?

Here’s AP’s Interactive page for the election
http://interactives.ap.org/2016/general-election/?SITE=APQA
Still stuck at 228-290
Last updated Today at 12:39pm EST

They are not updating MI and NH
They ARE updating votes
(don’t know where they are getting those updates - what states)

As far as I can see, when/if AP updates the states - most media outlets will update too - right now they aren’t updating the state count.

NYT is predicting Trump at 306. Then click “all states” and you see 305. Incomplete states are listed. New Hampshire, might be the sticking point.

Michigan SoS has NOT officially called it for Trump ... yet.

“Why arent the Dims suing in all the close states?”

too many states would have to be reversed by lawsuit. If the EV had been closer and only one state would have to flipped by judicial fiat, you could bet your bottom dollar the Dems would be suing.

Actually, whoredom media is doing as they have been told to do by their masters. They are making up lies to generate more unrest and sustain the anger and hatred in the leftists they so gladly embrace. The media are complicit in the violence and division of America and should be the first targets when their strategy ignites civil war.

“As I understand it, absentee ballots in most states are NOT COUNTED if it wouldn’t make a difference in the outcome.”

I keep seeing that nonsensical “fact” repeated on FR over and over again. Even on the face of it, it makes zero sense. Most states have MULTIPLE OTHER issues besides President on the ballot, races such as Senator and Congressmen and multiple state-wide initiatives. These other races don’t run in lockstep with the Presidential race: some are winning and some are losing. So ALL the votes have to be counted to determine the result of all the OTHER races in the state besides President.

That Michigan link at post 55 has updated 11-10-16
(with stated updates every 10 minutes)

It hasn’t been updated since Thursday 10:38am.
So, right now it has stopped being updated as of Thursday.
It should be called.
