100k votes from Arizona in 5 minutes will keep you awake

Arizona is looking far too close. Can’t predict it easily.

I can. Trump takes this one by quite a bit

[DeanoL]

Starting to think everywhere is counting slowly as they want to avoid being the state that causes Trump to lose, as they will get hit worst by protests / riots / violence

Apparently Trump needs 59% of the AZ votes to take it. That last batch was 57%. The next large batch will be from a more Democrat based county. Not sure what time it’s due

You'd have thought that Fox News would have un-called Arizona by now if they thought it would now be within Trump's reach. As they made the early call, once Georgia flips then they'll need to call the presidential race as Biden's. 

John King just apologise for his scrappy looking 8s too. What a guy.

Don’t you know about my betting track record? I never win bets so usually bet on the opposite result I want.

They made the call based on democrats doing postal votes but apparently in Arizona there’s a history of republicans doing postal votes. The things you learn.

Georgia flipping is far from guaranteed though - and whichever way it ends up, there'll likely only be a couple hundred votes difference in the final number which puts it well within (legitimate) recount territory. If the networks are being responsible it won't get "called" any time soon even if there's a final vote tally announced.

Georgia also has about 8000 military votes to come in. They’ll all be red blooded gun toting Republicans. Biden needs to be 10k in front to cover that. 

[ShakeyCrash]

Most would be 8k but see what your saying. 1,900 in it now! 

[squirrelarmy]

Predictions of PA flipping by 4am but that is probably US time. 
 

Also seen that the military vote in GA isn’t guaranteed to be mainly Trump. He’s pissed off the army a lot.

Would be interesting to know how this looks but how has he pissed off the army?

Sorry, but you are making way too many generlizations about the US military vote. Many people join the armed forces to support their family, or because their education system failed them, and they have few options. Many enlisted troops from Georgia are people of colour. Many of them are not trigger happy Trump supporters. Many veterans I know are appalled by Trump's actions and want him gone.

Good info to know. I’ve spent too much time watching films like Jarhead and Full Metal Jacket. 
 

Feel more optimistic now.

If you think all soldiers are GOP, it’s hilarious to think that. And you’re also assuming all of them are actually from Georgia? If you end up being assigned to a base in Georgia after you did your training in California or Illinois for example, then thats what you gotta deal with, it’s not under your control.

They should unpack the next lot from
Georgia and count them one by one on live tv. I’d watch it.

Self explanatory. And you think somebody that dodged the draft with a fake doctors note isnt anti military?
