@metal-brain saidSuch reports exist in your imagination, nowhere else.
Then why the news reports that Biden won the recount? Was that another stupid projection reported as fact?

If they are not referring to the recount it is very misleading.

@metal-brain saidIt isn't "misleading" at all. In fact, it mentions the "recount" (which is more properly an "audit" under Georgia law):

"Biden’s legal team in Georgia said on Friday they do not expect a hand recount of votes in the state to change the results there. Trump campaign spokesman Tim Murtaugh told Fox News the campaign has “great confidence” it can prevail in the Georgia recount."

@no1marauder saidOf course they don't. Do you expect them to say otherwise?

Whether or not it changes the result is unimportant. What is important is how much the count changes and to whom, regardless of the outcome. That is all that matters.
@metal-brain saidYour nitpicking aside, the article merely says that the election was "called". And it has been, so there is nothing "misleading" about the article.

There is virtually no chance that any recount is going to flip State results with leads the size Biden has in the critical States. Thus, it is perfectly reasonable to "call" those States though some organizations, like Decision Desk HQ, have decided to wait to call Georgia until after the hand audit is completed (they've called every other State). Most other organizations have concluded that the hand audit won't possibly change the result and have "called" Georgia.
Pennsylvania has already announced it will not order a recount as Biden's lead exceeds 0.5% which is the criteria under State law (it's now close to 1% ).

Called by who?
Be specific, this is important.
How do "other organizations" know that the hand audit won't possibly change the result? Do they have any evidence election meddlers are on vacation and the Russians are too drunk from vodka to hack?

Read the article YOU cited; I didn't say I posted one on this page. But YOU did and the answer to your question is in it (second paragraph I believe).

That article says nothing about who "called" it.
You continue to be evasive. There is a reason for that.

@metal-brain saidIt is IMPOSSIBLE to rule out that it didn't happen in another county and was not noticed and caught because of a much greater population in another county is no argument or evidence that it DID happen in any other county.
"There is no evidence that any voting system deleted or lost votes, changed votes, or was in any way compromised," the committee announced."
That is not true. Antrim county here in MI where I live, flipped thousands of republican votes to democrats because of human error. It was not caught by any safeguard. It was caught because people noticed there was no way a red co ...[text shortened]... only way to verify that claim.
When was the last time a presidential recount has been completed?

"Edison Research, which made the Georgia call, also projected that North Carolina, the only other battleground state with an outstanding vote count, would go to Trump, finalizing the electoral vote tally at 306 for Biden to 232 for Trump."
Sorry for trying to get you to read your own source (it is in paragraph 2 as I said).

@Metal-Brain
Whatever irregularities they find will be numbered in MAYBE a dozen or so, and will NEVER add up to enough to flip ANY state, county or district.
Your Trump parroting troll business is waning.
Who will you parrot after Biden is sworn in come Jan 20?

@no1marauder saidThat means nothing. Nobody has received any electoral delegates yet. Trump has refused to concede and recounts are underway. There is nothing written in the constitution that says an election is decided before then.

Biden will not be president for over 2 months even if his presidency is certified and official. Be patient. If you are right Trump will make a fool out of himself and you will get to laugh and make fun of him. Let the inevitable happen. It will be a great freak show that will ensure he will never run and win another term in 2024.
