Biden's Lead in Arizona Shrinks

An update to the Arizona vote count posted the evening of Monday, Nov. 9, shows the gap between the two presidential candidates shrink even more.

Overall, Joe Biden now leads in the state by 14,746 votes, down from 16,952 votes on Sunday afternoon. This puts President Trump within about half of a percentage point from Biden with approximately 61,500 ballots left to be counted.

BREAKING

Donald Trump is now within 1% of Biden in Arizona.

Have you heard that from our sycophantic DNC media?

Nope. — Benny (@bennyjohnson) November 10, 2020

Gap in Arizona falls a little more. Biden now leading by about 15k with 2% to be counted. A recount likely given the margin. pic.twitter.com/bx0VDrbaSK — Rita Panahi (@RitaPanahi) November 10, 2020

Secretary of State Katie Hobbs reminded voters the ballot cure process deadline on Nov. 10 is fast approaching.

The ballot cure period is ending soon, and time is running out for voters who need to correct certain ballot issues.

The latest batch of votes, which included those from Maricopa County, shows President Trump did not perform as well as he needed to.

Trump took 49.2% of 6,495 votes that were posted in Maricopa County at 7 p.m. on Monday, with Biden taking 47%. That was far short of what Trump needed. To overtake Biden, he needs more than 60% of all the remaining ballots statewide. (AZ Central)

No matter the outcome, the media was too quick to call the race for Biden in The Grand Canyon State given the razor thin margin.

When Fox called Arizona, its decision desk said Trump could not eliminate the 7 point lead Biden had. Biden's lead is now down to .5 (one-half of a point) with 1000s more ballots to count. Fox may luck out and be right, but the race was, in fact, too close to call. https://t.co/sdKceJ28iV — Sharyl Attkisson???‍?? (@SharylAttkisson) November 10, 2020

The Trump campaign and Republican National Committee filed a lawsuit in Arizona on Saturday over "incorrectly rejected votes" in Maricopa County.

“Poll workers struggled to operate the new voting machines in Maricopa County, and improperly pressed and told voters to press a green button to override significant errors,” Matt Morgan, Trump 2020 campaign general counsel, said in a statement. “The result is that the voting machines disregarded votes cast by voters in person on Election Day in Maricopa County.”

The lawsuit is seeking "the manual inspection of purportedly overvoted ballots that were cast in-person, the same way that elections officials examined overvoted ballots that were mailed in or dropped off," the Trump campaign press release states.

There was some kind of high level dust up and somebody from the Republican party who was working for the Secretary of State is a Democrat got fired sending McCain and her followers are involved in the problems in Arizona. Sad to say there’s a lot of crooked people here in the GOPlite division.

The software glitch was installed on dominion machines here late the night before just like it was in other parts of the country and the Republican in charge of certifying the machines waved certification so another words the fix was in and that person was a McCain supporter from a long time ago the liberal democrats and liberal republicans AKA the unit party at work.

There was an article posted about it here on tree Republic last night or very early this morning and I’m not real clear on the details it just made me grind my teeth at 3:00 a.m..

Just realize what happens if this goes in favor of Trump, understand what the media is doing.

They want to make it so that if the Truth becomes clear, they will be too afraid to do anything about it, lest we see riots everywhere. That’s why they are so anxious to proclaim that Biden won.

WI is pretty close. I think he’s at 20,000 now, quite doable.

MI is a lot: it’s 146,000, but again, they found 4,000 from just one machine that was in 47 locations in one county. So there is plenty of leeway there.

PA can be handled by the USSC and may be flipped even before that.

However, you are now looking at a “run the table” scenario where we have to win AZ, flip two of four (MI/MN/PA/GA). Then hope the state legislatures, seeing the fraud that went on, certify the right slate. Doable, but not easy at all.

here has been major controversy over their machines due to the company’s ties to Democrats and the Clinton Foundation.

“I just found our that Maricopa County GOP Chairman Rae Chornenky failed to show up to certify the Dominion / Machines. For this reason, I call for her resignation, along with her 1st Vice Chair,” Rep. Townsend tweeted.

Thank you for your reply. By my count if we reverse all except AZ (PA Mi Wi and GA). Trump has 294

LOL!

Nice misdirection, Mr Alinsky.

Your initial personal attack of my posting Corey L’s comment was and still is quite disappointing.

As other freepers have noted, your accuracy record leaves a LOT to be desired.

Fox’s liberals are thugs - just like the liberals at other stations.
Expect them to manipulate things to benefit democrats and hurt Republicans. That’s what passes for ‘news’ in the minds of low-life cheats.

And yeah, it’s not only Chris Wallace that thinks his job is ‘king-maker’ rather than newsman...there are others at Fox just as bad.

Sure it does. It’s only better than any pollster out there.

Which means you don’t have to follow. Or respond, right?

When democrat cheat they always make it close -- to make sure they don't draw too much attention to the fraud going on.

It's why ballot boxes are held back - sometimes to after midnight. Democrats wanted to know how many ballots to stuff to make sure it's close - - too many would call attention to the fraud - too few would cause a loss.

To fix this type of voter fraud laws should be changed so all ballot boxes must be turned in within 2 hours of polling stations closing AND the official 'counting' process doesn't start until two hours after polls close.

Want to hear a funny story about voter fraud in Florida years ago?

Stacks of cards of "people who didn't show up to vote" were lined up, ice pick put on the chad spot to knock out the right chads with a hammer, then a few others to make it look like no ballots only had 'one vote'...

But there was a mess up...

...and the chad spot for a Republican was hit on many of the stacks... and that Republican won. Big mistake! There was fear someone would notice the high number of votes from the 'black community' for a Republican and that it might trigger an investigation - - but no one noticed and time moved on...

It was before my time so I don't know which race or year but I do know democrats have been doing voter fraud for decades...

On a lighter note, Did you notice that every race "too close to call" 2018 went to democrats? Does that strike you as odd? The same will happen in two years...

Phase 1 was insufficient to control the outcome of the election for Biden, so Phase 2, consisting of harvesting and manufacturing ballots for Biden, was carried out in the dead of the night in the absence of poll watchers.


Agree. Very coincidental that states all stopped counting and then massive numbers were found.

Two point from the SC side

1. If Pa didn’t comply with Alitos order I think that bodes negatively for anything being counted post election and secures Pa.

2. Re bigger picture across multiple states, minus software , complaints etc, is access by opposing party to observe ballots.

Thats what Rudy is focused on and fired a shot with Pa press conference. If true that violated election law and should give the SC a reason to refer this back to state legislature scenario.

If true on both counts I think that swings Trumps % very significantly well over 50%
if legislatures vote R.....

80% turnout in Maricopa County. Is that a record of some sort? Expected much more Trump %-age there.

That’s pretty much what FL was statewide.

No don’t worry. Supreme Court case: cannot be “faithless electors.” State can replace and punish!

Agreed, they count millions the first evening, and it takes a full day to count 20,000 votes now? Whats going on?

AUtomatic recount at around 3,000 vote difference in AZ might help things if he doesn’t win outright.
