Pennsylvania hopes to have majority of ballots counted by Friday
Source: USA Today
Pennsylvania Secretary of State Kathy Boochvar said election officials hope to have the overwhelming majority of the states outstanding absentee ballots counted by Friday.
Were coming into the homestretch, Boochvar said at a news briefing Thursday evening, adding that the plan is to count into the night.
Pennsylvania, with 20 electoral votes in play in the race for president, had 326,248 outstanding absentee ballots still to count as of 6 p.m. EST.
President Donald Trump holds a 78,314-vote lead over Democratic challenger Joe Biden. But Biden has made up significant ground and is expected to continue to so as mail-in ballots that skew Democratic are tallied across the state, including from two Democratic strongholds, Philadelphia and Pittsburgh.

(9,760 posts)How pathetic they believe belligerent ignorance appears strong. That doing something to protect the community, like wearing a mask appears weak.
I hate to think of the terrible relationships these Trumpers have considering they think the Sociopath-in-Chief is a not just a great guy, but the greatest!

Btw, did you know this or was using Biff to illustrate RW jerks just a coincidence?:

(128,895 posts)(me and Michael J. Fox are about 6 months apart in age) and that first installment really showed the "bully" - not just when young, but even well into adulthood. I have read articles about the "bullies" and "cliques" among women too in some active retirement communities. That film really underscored how people don't change that much.
And LOL! Didn't realize that connection! I haven't seen the 2nd one in a long time and I don't think I ever got around to seeing the 3rd one (watched the first one many times though).
Of course if I remember my "'80s" correctly as a young adult, it was the "preppy" period and a "Bif" was often the "rich" preppy guy.

Yep, those hard core preppies were the Young Republicans in our HS. I was too young for it, but would have been a hippie if that had still been a thing!

(3,334 posts)Cnn says if he can continue with the same percentages he will win by 40,000-50,000 votes. I am sure that will call for a recount. Biden has a good shot at Georgia and should take Nevada. Those 2 states give him the win.
