I'm becoming resigned to no media call until Dec 14 after Biden hits 270 officially in EC

[NewsCenter28]

Rememher the 2000 FL recount? As soon as Chairman Daly said the campaign viewed the race as too close to call in 2000, the media withdrew their projection of President-Elect Bush until Vice President Gore officially conceded. They'll just say they are affording Trump the same treatment VP Gore received even though the situations could not be more different.

Despite my frustration of earlier today, and the fact that I personally don't think Trump should be afforded the privilege of the race not being called until he concedes, as he will clearly abuse it, I think that's the direction the media is headed in and model they're following. It's the only thing that makes sense to me on the delay in the call.

So frustrating that we all know Joe deserves to be labeled President-Elect but spineless cowards are getting in the way.

The next excuse they'll give is they can't call a race with multiple frivulous lawsuits outstanding.

The one bright spot is that the concession will become mute on December 14th when the electoral college votes Biden as President-Elect.

Then again, if there are competing slates of electors, the cowardly media won't have to make the call until Speaker Pelosi throws out the imposter slate on January 6, 2021. Lucky them. Making someone else do the right thing!

1. I won't be happy until Jan. 6

when the electoral votes are officially counted. Remember the shenanigans some supposedly Democratic electors pulled in 2016, not voting for Clinton?

3. Me as well.

Officially that is when the bell tolls.

[NewsCenter28]

4. I do. Good news is we should have 306

This time to avoid having to worry about faithless electors. Let them fade into irrelevancy.

2. Suspense/anxiety is good for business because it is good for ratings/clicks.

That's all the media cares about.

All this pablum about truth and informing/educating the public is bullshit. The media cares about revenue. And damn the consequences.

7. It's also good for

champagne sales. I already drank my 1st bottle ...

5. There is not too close to call. HRC was closer than this race.

[Spider Jerusalem]

6. They're going to call it once Biden's margin of victory is over the recount threshold of 0.5% (n/t)

[LizBeth]

9. Is NV or Ga over that .05%?

[Spider Jerusalem]

10. Recount in Georgia is already announced and NV isn't done counting (n/t)

[LizBeth]

11. You do not have to be finished counting or the recount to call a state.

[Catherine Vincent]

8. No effin way

12. moot, not mute

[SmartVoter22]

13. Dec 14 is official results day

There is no more important date in any election of a POTUS or Congress.

A concession is a couresty only.

14. I'm willing to be resigned only until Sunday night after significant more votes come out

By tomorrow night it will be overwhelmingly apparent that the frivolous lawsuits have gone nowhere with no effect on results and tens of thousands of more votes favoring Joe even more heavily so by Monday morning all the media needs to have called it and let us move on with President-elect Joe and VP-elect Kamala.

We all know that Trump and his cult followers will only begin accepting results when Fox calls it for Joe.

15. The longer this goes on,

the more conspiracy theories will be created around the election. They need to announce the winner already.
