About 2,600 uncounted ballots were found in reliably Republican Floyd County, Ga., prompting officials to say the error would be corrected and the Georgia Secretary of State’s office to call for the county’s elections director to resign.
That batch of ballots will provide a net increase of 778 votes for President Trump, Gabriel Sterling, voting-system implementation manager at the Georgia Secretary of State's office, said during a video news conference Tuesday.
With those votes counted, President-elect Joe Biden’s lead over Mr. Trump will be 13,378 ballots, down from 14,156 votes, Mr. Sterling said, but it won’t change who won the state.

oh my goodness, this is the saddest little cope I have seen so far

Why does every post you make literally smell like shit?

So 2600 votes, moved the count by 800... out of a 14,500 difference means they'll need to find ballots from a total of 18 or 19 counties to make it an approximately tied ballgame? That's assuming all those counties have the same percentage of votes and same number of missing ballots.... Keep dreaming your pipe dreams. If the DNC hadn't had their asses as hats in 2016, we'd be voting for President Bernie for a second term this year. 2020 probably would have been a mediocre year rather than hell.

A civil war in the USA would be very entertaining to watch from Europe. This is the only way Trump will retain power. Just keep it within your own borders.

Nobody who gets elected anywhere is going to crush the plutocratic oligarchies.

Literally the thing the left and right should be rallying behind right here ^

My perspective is that our species stands upon the threshold of a new era of enlightenment and I will fight tooth and nail to prevent any kind of conflict which will slam that door shut in our faces.
The oligarchies have won the earth. Lets go somewhere else. It will be funny when they follow us because we have built something better than what they have taken and trashed. Magicman is right in much of what he said on this as well.

What we need is a new frontier, somewhere for the dreamers to go. The pathway to replacing the establishment will only create a force every bit as nefarious.

Not to sound too self important, but... if the US blows up, the world is going down with it. While the world was ripe for a major recession in 2007, it didn't really hit until the real estate bubble burst in the US and took the nation's banks down with it, and drove some nasty thrusts into other world banking organizations.

COUNT AGAIN!

I just want to say... After the running commentary running up to the election about voter fraud and such, I should have pulled a juicy statement from one of the old Shadowrun supplements/adventures.

> the real estate bubble
Capitalisms at it finniest, with the "soft and loveable" Richard Fuld at the helm back then.

(Lol. Trump skimming 75% of donations into its own slush fund for personal use. Grab what you can before you leave the building.)

I'd laugh about the real estate bubble, but it's not even close to the stupidest thing to suffer from over-speculation. (I'm looking at you, tulips.)

I've had several theories of why Trump ran for president... this is not out of the realm of possibility.
