    Yes, now Biden is leading. But it's extremely narrow. Biden needs Pennsylvania (or Georgia/NC), or any victory of his, as things stand, will ring hollow.

    That's another state that is still very close, but as I understand it, the uncounted votes are all mail-ins and mostly from blue counties.

    They found 140,000 mail in votes in Michigan. 100% for Biden.

    Well this election has certainly been close. How man mail in ballots ar there left to count? I heard over 200,000 in North Carolina and many in Pennsylvania have not been counted yet.

    Imagine if it goes to the Electoral College and it ends up in a tie. Could it be a Biden & Trump scenario then?

    In that case, it's decided by the House of Representatives with each state's delegation getting one vote as a block.

    The presidency is, but the vice-president is picked by the senate and if it stays republican it could pick Trump as VP. So Biden & Trump.

    Immediate next move would be... initiate plot to kill CK2 style.

    Because the House vote is one vote per state as a block, Trump would most likely be president. It's a deviation from how the House normally operates.

    Yes, also likely and even more of a mess. People were angry in 2016 when the EC decided the presidency rather than the popular vote, imagine if yet another federal institution decides the presidency this time.

    You may be joking, but when I went to bed last night there was no possibility of a Biden win in that state because there wasn't enough votes left to turn it to him. When I woke up this morning more votes magically appeared. What is going on is ballot harvesting on a national scale.

    This could get ugly.

    Or they just didn't count the mail in ballots yet.

    I guess you're having trouble reading again. Let me be absolutely clear. When I was talking about votes I was talking about all the votes available. There isn't an unlimited supply...oh wait.

    You ever think you could just be wrong? But go on with the conspiracy theories. Someone is not happy Trump might actually lose.

    Mail voting is always subject to massive fraud. You don't just magically find 160k bulletins all for Biden or 55k votes for Trump. You're saying it's nonsense because "your" guy is winning, if the situation was reversed your opinion would be as well.
