Yeah I just don’t see that working out for him. It wouldn’t be the first time we didn’t know the outcome of an election immediately and everytime he’s tried to cry fraud, it’s backfired on him.

i know i keep beating this horse:

- we have never known the outcome of elections immediately
- the AP the networks (ie news organizations) make predictions as to how the count will eventually turn out and the official from each state will certify sometime later.
- we have accepted this action by the media as somehow official
- mostly because i dont think they’ve ever been wrong (as far as i can remember)
certainly about the election as a whole, and probably also as to each individual state
- and because it’s never mattered before

nothing that happens on election night is binding.
anybody ‘calling’ or ‘declaring’ anything on election night is just meaningless theater.
always has been actually.

we should think this way from now on.
