I don't think people get that declaring a winner on election night is only a projection. Winners aren't officially declared until December.

I'd like to hear the Trump lawyers legal case that Votes should stop being counted when he declares victory. BTW it was thought as TDS that he'd do exactly what he ended up doing.

How are counting votes fraud? Not sure what to think of Pennsylvania, they really meant it when they said all the votes wouldn't be counted until Friday. We know that Mail-in and absentee votes cast overwhelmingly favour Biden. Michigan and Wisconsin are looking good for Biden as absentee and early votes are counted in urban and suburban areas. Arizona also looks good for Biden, That's a big steal. However Nevada is quite close. Georgia is still in play, lots of Atlanta area votes left to be counted. I think people had wishful thinking that Biden could win outright, but 100,000,000 people votes early or by mail. That's a crazy chunk. There was no way those votes could have been counted in one day. Unless you do what Florida did and count early. Many states don't do that.

Gore had the decency to concede when it's clear he lost. Do you think Trump has that decency? He's even tweeted about SCOTUS saving him. That's most certainly not democratic. It'll be a different situation. In 2000 it was re-counting votes already cast. In this instance it'll be to avoid counting votes at all.

I'm not talking about ballots coming in days later. The Pennsylvania ballots have been cast and recorded. You can check them online. Why haven't they already been counted? Why do votes cast today precede them? https://electproject.github.io/Early-Vote-2020G/PA.html The theory is that Trump will have a lead before any of the early ballots are counted and he'll declare victory early. I can't see even Fox News affirming that knowing there are 2.5 million + votes yet to be counted.

If Trump can stay in office because he can get SCOTUS to not allow counting of votes that have already been received in Pennsylvania, I'd consider the US a failed state. Their democratic institutions would have failed catastrophically. There is no objective metric that notes Trump has expanded his voter base in the last 4 years. He's never had an approval rating of more than 50%. His road to victory in 2016 hinged on suppressed Democratic turnout in the states of Michigan, Wisconsin and Pennsylvania. People didn't like Hillary enough to get off their asses to vote. There is no indication that's the public's appetite this year. Early voting this year amounts to 70% of the 2016 total. Voter turnout could be historic today. How could that result in the election of an objectively unpopular POTUS?

Texas and Iowa are in play too. Trump loses Texas or Florida he's pretty much done.

So, for example states like Texas and Pennsylvania are seeing huge voter turnout. Not sure if you've analyzed the EC map, but it's pretty simple. The three states Trump took by a narrow margin are key. If Biden take them all back he wins. But, to that, Biden is competitive in Georgia, Florida, Arizona and North Carolina. If Biden takes Michigan and Wisconsin, Trump needs to sweep all the rest of the competitive red states to win.

Well considering Trump has never increased his popularity from 2016 the higher voter turnout would indicate problems for him. Trump admits as much. https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2020/mar/30/trump-republican-party-voting-reform-coronavirus

Wahhhhhhh!!!!!! More ad hominem attacks from someone who's unable to debate. Places are closing because number keep going up because young people don't want to practice personal responsibility and physical distance properly. So places where people congregate in large groups need to be limited. Sure people in the Hospitality industry are suffering. It's sad, but don't pretend their livelihood would automatically return to normal because they can open. A lot of people shouldn't be going to places like that anyway, especially if it's with groups outside of their social bubbles. People who choose to say "if I get sick I won't die" are the ones being selfish. We're all living in situation where I have to stay home even if I have a cold because you can't prove it's COVID-19 without a test, because even if it's low symptom COVID-19, it can be transmitted to people it may kill.

I'm reading the chart. 3-6% of Ontario deaths are people in their 60's.

More cases in one day than the entire province of Ontario has seen through the entire pandemic. It's actually quite pathetic. It's as if they saw that Europe was beating them in Per capita cases per day and said "Hold my Beer".

What other contagious diseases have a 3-6% chance of killing someone in their 60's? That's why I take this seriously. Lots of people in their 60's are in the workforce and my parents are in their 60's. And to tell them to stay home so I can hit the bar is ridiculous.

Trumpers keep talking about a silent majority, yet their only evidence of support is a loud minority. More 2/3 of the vote has already been recorded from 2016. If that doesn't indicate a level of enthusiasm that eclipses 2016, I'm not sure what does.

Voting by mail. He's actually having the mail slowed to make it less likely all votes are cast.

Dear leader calls it a scam.

Early voting (through mail and in-person) is more than half the ballots cast in all of 2016 and there's 6 days left. Thought there was an enthusiasm gap?

But you're only giving credence to the Fox ones right?

Stocks plummeting as COVID-19 cases skyrocket. Don't they know that Trump beat the virus?

I said wannabe. Not a lot he can do. But he certainly buddies up with the most brutal dictators in the world while fighting with the world's other democracies. That being said, his treatment of the Postal Service knowing many people will want to vote by mail is quite anti-democratic.
