Mail in ballots must still be counted in most of the states.

by state law as to when mail-in and early votes can be counted, but I don’t think it’s anything close to most NOT being counted. For example, I think Florida is pretty much considered all counted, but of course it is one of our very own shithole countries of election cheating and corruption - witness a court hearing scheduled tomorrow about ballots sitting around in postal facilities.

Sorry to all you good people of Florida, I guess I’m tired and disappointed, and I may not know shit.

even with a slim Biden win and no senate majority, it will be very challenging time, no doubt. with unpredictable outcome for 2024. My heart goes out to Biden if he wins w/o senate majority and SC, dealing with turtle.

There was no doubt TN would go for him. I still vote, but it goes into a big black hole.

Started in 2000, continued in 2004, sealed the deal in 2016. This year I hoped I had been wrong. Win or lose, the ugliness of 40% of our country is out in the open and they're proud of it. And that god who is supposedly so present in our lives? I think he took a powder quite a while ago.

If trump wins legitimately something is very wrong.
Heard to many stories of people switching votes from republican to democrats at least president none of democrats switching
It seems wrong all the way around
Hope all around for the White House senate house of reps

I’m not feeling optimistic
I’m sorry

seems like a good candidate for ruler of this world. Or you could go with Loki. According to Marvel Comics he is the god of mischief.

As for humanity . . . well, they say half of them are below average.

Like Prince's doc said:

I went to the doctor and guess what he told me?
Guess what he told me?
He said boy(/gir)l you better try to have fun
No matter what you do....

Just don't listen to Prince's reply!
