Someone Educate Me A Little, Regarding Counting Votes

When I voted, the selection for President was at the top of the ballot. But, all the other races were there below it. U.S. Senator, U.S. Representative, Railroad Commissioner, Chief Justice of Texas Supreme Court, and so on, and so on. Many electoral races on one ballot, right?

So, how come only the Presidential election has uncounted ballots? If that race has uncounted ballots, then so should all the down-ballot races, right? Should not many other election results still be uncertain?

    They are busy manipulating the presidential votes.

    I can't believe they misspelled "Pork and Beans!"

    They are trying to disregard the wishes of the American people, you and me, like they have been doing for the last four years. They are hoping we will just accept it and go away. Hopefully they are WRONG.

    They actually have not counted any of the races on the still uncounted ballots.  The count for a given ballot is done all at once., one ballot at a time.  The national media presupposes that the presidential  vote is the most important and focuses only on that.  Local media may be your only avenue to an overall report.  This is a reporting issue not a counting issue.

    When needed another stack of votes are printed out.  Detroit, Milwaukee, Atlanta, Philadelphia all are running short on printer ink supplies.  The votes just keep coming in and looks like now they have enough.

    Barzillia, have not Senators, Representatives, Judges, etc, already been confirmed as winning?

    No Sir. Not here in N.C.

    The 12th Amendment to the Constitution charges the states to decide how they will conduct voting for the election of the President.  Had the Founding Fathers had enough foresight, they would have stipulated that optical scanners & computers be used, but, sadly, they didn't.

    NC became irrelevant when old Joe only needed 7 more electoral votes so the news emphasis was on the states he was leading in. It doesn't matter how many votes Trump gets now if Biden is at 270. Joe doesn't worry me as much as Kamala so I hope he stays healthy for 4 years. Either way it is going to be a loooong 4 years. 😞 Bob

    AP has declared Biden the Winner

    They can declare Flipper the winner. Does not make it so.

    253 +7 = 260, last I checked.

    It still needs to be reported and discussed what is going on there. (NC)

    If it should be awarded to Trump, 213+7 = 220, it stands at 253/220. Not quite so much a "mandate."

    We have all seen and witnessed the MSM bias toward out President in awarding/declaring who is at what level in the Electoral College count.

    Whoops! I meant to type 17 and PA would put him over the top. Fingers are just to fat for typing on this tablet.😁
    You're right all states should be reported and the more votes for Trump the more nervous the dems will be about making sweeping changes. I doubt if all the lawsuits are going to do any good for Trump but I guess he has to try. I sure ain't happy with this outcome but I hope the fighting over the voting doesn't make a bad situation worse. Bob

    What I would like to know is why NC is not even being discussed now. Last I heard it was leaning Trump. (Day's ago.) Now, you do not hear a word. If the State were awarded to Trump, the Electoral count would not look so lopsided. 253 Biden, 213 Trump.

    They show repeatedly PA, GA, AZ, NV. That is all that is being shown/discussed. Why?

    NC is not even discussed, nor or the counts shown.

    Whiskey Tango Foxtrot?

    Ricci stated that (if I recall correctly) that 300,000 ballots remain outstanding. (?) Why??


    Because they haven't finished cheating yet

    Dems knew all along it would take mail in ballots (hehe) to win, oddly they have been brazen enough to claim 80-90% of those mail in votes belong to Biden. Weird since a lot of Seniors voted mail in and Trump. But when you control the cities and the counting rooms along with the media it is really easy to cheat.
    Fact is at the end of the night Trump had larger numbers in PA, GA, and NC they took the two they needed and might be afraid to call attention to NC and let it go Trump.

    As to answer Nunns question the makor races that the late "votes" helped with are Georgia where the late "votes" have pushed to red senate seats into a run off

    If Americans were smart we would jetizon the cities and let the rural areas run red let the cities live blue and see who out lasts who

    I want to see some statistics of the state mail in percentages. Odd each swing state had so many mail in votes in the populated areas that were 90/10 Biden . And think of this. They knew how many votes were mailed out. So why didn't they have the folks ready to count those votes instead of dragging the vote tally to the end within those mail in votes.  Funny other states had their mail in votes counted.. that had larger population..say komifornia, Texas..

    Wait until they eliminate the Electoral Collage. Then they will come up with all the votes they need in just a few cities like Chicago.

    See the video in Politics titled Hammer and Scorecard...it might help explain the obvious that you, I, and no doubt other people have asked themselves.
