The AP numbers I'm looking at, even though they are labeled "live", haven't changed for several hours now.

PA has been locked at 64% reporting since before 11:00 PM last night.  I am sure they're busy printing and marking new ballots.  That is very time consuming.
Frankly, I am surprised they didn't have several hundred thousand Biden ballots pre-marked and ready for counting.

Democratic legislators in Michigan, Pennsylvania, and Wisconsin begged Republicans to let election officials start processing and counting mail ballots well before Election Day. Republicans refused, which is why we will not know the winner of the presidential election tonight.

Can anyone confirm this? If it's true, I would like to know the reasoning. There could be a valid reason on the fraud front depending on the security of the count, but otherwise there should be no reason not to, for instance, count all mail-in ballots received through 02NOV, on 02NOV, then count the remaining stragglers on 03NOV.

I could see a concern if dems wanted to county daily for several weeks before election day, since you increase the probability of fraud or screw ups.

I wonder how long it will take the Democrats to implement an authoritarian socialist government similar to the dystopian one modeled in Matt Braken's EF&D books.

The senate is Republican.  Most of the Supreme Court is republican appointed.  The democrats have the house and apparently the Presidency.  Our government is deeply divided by gridlock.  I don't think your fears are likely right now.

Hopefully Trump won't do like most Rs has in the past and rolled over and played dead. Too much obvious ballot BS going on in several states.

He's indicating he won't, which will make the riots that much sportier.

I need to reword that as

But it appears Trump won't do like most Rs have in the past and rolled over and played dead. Too much obvious ballot BS going on in several states and he's proven he'll go tooth and nail with the Ds

Requests to change it just didn't go anywhere. Anyone paying attention knew these states would be really slow, no one should be surprised by it.

Wasn't it ruled in PA that it's no longer a requirement that signatures on mailed in ballots have to match what's on file?

Is it worded "need not"? Reason I ask is that "need not" does not rule out "can be" as in a recount and/or lawsuit

We lost one if not two seats in the senate if I am not mistaken. You have a lot more faith in the Republicans in the Senate than I do.

Trump's lead is now down to 9 points in PA. Down from 15 I think?
