    It's a bit like installing a windows update, it quickly reaches 99% then takes forever to do the last 1%

      To my thinking, if your vote isn't in by the end of polling day, then it should be null and void.
      Equally if you spoil the ballot paper.

      Just seems strange that only certain states are having this problem, most didn't.

          I don't doubt Trump's claims are probably not true, but the fact remains, why are certain states holding out?
          Is it down to incompetence?
          Or is it just hanging out because they want to be the deciding state?

          It just reminds me of those silly game shows when they say, and the winner is?.............drum roll, nothing happens and finally they tell you.
          The suspense is terrible, NOT.

                Make your own mind up here, but this is in regard to the software used to count the votes that saw thousands of votes in Michigan 'flipped' to Biden, due to a "software glitch" - that has now been rectified, and the votes have been corrected, but it is exactly this sort of thing that is causing questions.

                  Biden over the line then. I bet Trump isnt packing his suitcase yet though.
                  Trump will be the first President to not concede defeat before an opponent claims victory as is protocol. Things are gonna get messy ..........

                  Understandably so I would say.

                  A blind man on a dark night can see that there has been quite a lot of underhand and questionable stuff going on here, on both sides. There is a word for global politics now, and it rhymes with ducked. My advice - buy a gun.

                    Well, Don has gone, as he cannot win Pennsylvania due to the number of votes left are insufficient to overcome Biden's lead.....so that gives Biden 173 College votes.:cat-kittyandsmiley::coffee:

                      The count is in for Kanye West, he got 60,000 votes ( from a 331 million population)
                      This was just 59,998 more votes than I thought he would get.

                            “The main thing that I learned about conspiracy theory, is that conspiracy theorists believe in a conspiracy because that is more comforting. The truth of the world is that it is actually chaotic. The truth is that it is not The Iluminati, or The Jewish Banking Conspiracy, or the Gray Alien Theory.
                            The truth is far more frightening - Nobody is in control.


                            “There is a theory going around that the U.S.A. was and still is a gigantic Masonic plot under the ultimate control of the group known as the Illuminati. It is difficult to look for long at the strange single eye crowning the pyramid which is found on every dollar bill and not begin to believe the story, a little. Too many anarchists in 19th-century Europe—Bakunin, Proudhon, Salverio Friscia—were Masons for it to be pure chance. Lovers of global conspiracy, not all of them Catholic, can count on the Masons for a few good shivers and voids when all else fail

                            “Why do we love the idea that people might be secretly working together to control and organise the world? Because we don't like to face the fact that our world runs on a combination of chaos, incompetence and confusion.”

                            “Republicans are far more likely to walk in to a polling boot than democrats and democrats are far more likely to use mail-in ballots.
                            So what could very well happen on in election night, you’re sitting there moderating show, it appears that Trump is winning in Michigan and Wisconsin and Florida.
                            People say it, oh my goodness trump is ahead and then in ten a clock in a night Trump announces, “I won the election and by the way my attorney general has told me there is massive fraud with the mail in ballots, and we got a stop counting those ballots. Thank you America , I won, have a good night!”
                            And then the mail in-ballots keep coming in and Trumps lead disappears and Biden becomes the leader. And then you have a massive chaos and conspiracy theory and that is the nightmare I’m worried about.

                              Sorry, but could you point me in the direction of the conspiracy theory? There was a change, acknowledged by the state of Michigan as a 'software glitch' that resulted in many thousands of votes going to the wrong party. That 'glitch' has now been rectified and the votes reverted. However, that same software apparently is used elsewhere in the country, bringing into question the validity of the vote.

                              Regardless of who anyone wanted to win, surely to have a situation like this alongside numerous allegations of fraud, calls into question the validity of the entire election? Banana republic springs to mind.
