Oh god it just keeps getting better


Why the fuck can’t Nevada count today?!?

Looking at outstanding vote I don’t see how Trump wins Michigan

Shame she unseated a Dem in the Iowa house seat... but

The keyboardist from the Rentals just got elected to the Iowa State House as a Republican in Ottumwa

MIRS has declared Biden the winner of Michigan.

EDIT: OK, just realized that acronym is going to need some explaining for the non-Mitten/legislative wonks wings of the board. Very wonky, non-partisan state government news organization. This is the equivalent of me saying "The Detroit Free-Press has declared Biden the winner of Michigan" or "The Richmond Times-Dispatch has declared Biden the winner of Virginia."

For what it's worth, I think they're right. 
 
The only significant numbers of votes outstanding are in Wayne and Kalamazoo, which lean (in one case, heavily) Dem with no way for Trump to make up the 38,000 votes he's behind.  The gap will likely increase.

Yep. Wayne is brining it home. 55k is going to be the margin, I think.

This is a possibility.  Team Trump has filed a suit to stop the count, which can only be an attempt to keep the percentage with in the recount threshold.

Unless I am mistaken, there is no paid recount threshold in MI.

In addition to being the keyboardist for the Rentals and now a state level politician, she's also a mechanic and tv star. A real Renaissance woman!

I may have undershot. Biden by 61k (1.1%) at current.

As a native son who donated thousands to this state over the last two years and literally took a goddamn vacation last month to go help with get-out-the-vote efforts in Wayne and Washtenaw, this feels damn satisfying. A tear may get shed here when a network calls it.

Well done!
