McNinny just went silent. What could she say?!

CaveMum · 06/11/2020 22:39

Georgia now showing Votes Remaining as “unknown”, I’m taking a guess that they may have just received a big pile of military mail in ballots that need to be sorted then processed.

lyralalala · 06/11/2020 22:39

This is taking so loooooong

I'm all for accuracy, but someone needs to remind the people that the candidates are both in their 70s. They don't want to take too long with this process Grin

From the other thread:

Now saying Biden has all the work done by Trump and only has to sit and do nothing.
Booming economy and no pandemic, clearly.

Delphinium20 · 06/11/2020 22:40

@Roussette I can't believe that's the first time I've heard McNinny. Love it!!!Cake

Roominmyhouse · 06/11/2020 22:40

Ahh just finish counting and give us the result! I’ve been up so late every night this week watching CNN and I can’t cope. I’m not sure we are going to get a result tonight, might not even be until Sunday with all the mail in and military votes.

Fizzy wine still in the fridge waiting and the wait will be worth it

cantdothisnow1 · 06/11/2020 22:41

Anyone brave enough to predict whether Biden will speak tonight and what he will say?

I'm not sure I'm able to cope with another night of 5 hours sleep!

Thank you all of you who have been providing timely new threads the last few days.

Whooosh! they're going by!

There should be a plaque in honour of CNN Map Man. A swooshy touchy one.

Roussette · 06/11/2020 22:42

@Delphinium20 I think, if I remember correctly, I started it... because I couldn't spell her name from memory, could've been McEnema!

CNN still saying Biden due to address the nation later- but now that PA aren’t going to be close to being able to be declared not sure what he’s going to say

I’ve worked out that I’ve had 12 hours sleep since election night and I’m in the UK!

That means that a shouty self absorbed person on at that time will have to go for a coffee. Maajid Nawaz. It is my show you know lol.
EveryDayIsADuvetDay · 06/11/2020 22:47

I can't believe I left home at about six this morning, and I'm sure it was 253-214 then.
Got home at about ten this evening, and it hasn't moved.
I am beginning to think that the count consists of one solitary person plodding away in the flooded shed.
How can it be soooooooooo slow?

So many of his tweets are coming back to haunt him

Sky News seem convinced that Biden is speaking at 1am UK, I'm wondering whether to take a risk and go to bed for an hour or so?! (What has become of me??)

Pomegranatespompom · 06/11/2020 22:48

DH has given up. I’ve poured a drink, perfectly acceptable to start eating Christmas food?

Sky news on Biden speech

'Not clear' whether Biden speech will go ahead tonight

Joe Biden was set to hold a presentation from his hometown of Wilmington, Delaware, tonight after the campaign expected to receive results from Pennsylvania, the state that could decide the election.
But Sky US correspondent Greg Milam says it is not certain whether this will take place.
"[The Biden campaign] felt confident a few hours ago to schedule that address to the nation at primetime here on the East Coast," he says.
"What's not clear now is whether that will go ahead - it depends on when they get a definitive result from the state of Pennsylvania.
"I think they thought by now that would have been called in his favour and that would have been officially made him the president-elect."
However, the Biden camp still appears confident it will be a win for them - whenever it comes.

"We're told there's elation in that camp, they've been popping champagne," Milam says.

Zixxy · 06/11/2020 22:52

Just me, but I think the Dems should keep their powder dry until the result is certain.

@ICouldHaveCheckedFirst

Wow this is moving fast! Can anyone explain the current arithmetic in GA?
Votes unverified? Ballots needing to be 'cured' so valid but not verified? Dunno. Just speculating.
