So genuine question. I'm not sure how it works post-election and I don't want to end up on a list.

If Biden were to become "unable to serve" in the next month, would Kamala still become the 47th president for two months until Inauguration Day and then Trump becomes 48th?
I'm a dumbass so I might be completely wrong, but her presidency would still count as part of the 46th administration, so there wouldn’t be a new presidential number for her brief time in office. Trump would still be considered the 47th president.
 
This is mind blowing. They used to teach in poli-sci classes the party that raises the most money always wins. What the fuck.

We are in uncharted waters.
I couldn't believe it either, I genuinely believe that the media predicts a winner based on this number which is why Trump is always the underdog.
 
PENNSYLVANIA AND WISCONSIN CALLED FOR TRUMP

TRUMP IS PRESIDENT-ELECT.
You dodged a close one, bro. Happy for you.
Please don't make a bet like that, again. NJ will flip, next time.

She would become the 47th and he would be the 48th. Even if he was incapable and at death's door him and Jill hate Kamala's guts so no way he gives up power unless he dies.
 
Harris can't even get 60% of the vote in California
That's why she lost the popular vote
I was asking how can Trump even lose the popular vote, at this point. I was wondering if I was missing something, because it doesn't seem numerically possible for him to lose it, anymore.

IF he was to fall ill in Death (yes) if 25th is enacted (yes)

25th Amendment

Section 4: Declaration by vice president and cabinet members of president's inability

Whenever the Vice President and a majority of either the principal officers of the executive departments or of such other body as Congress may by law provide, transmit to the President pro tempore of the Senate and the Speaker of the House of Representatives their written declaration that the President is unable to discharge the powers and duties of his office, the Vice President shall immediately assume the powers and duties of the office as Acting President.

Thereafter, when the President transmits to the President pro tempore of the Senate and the Speaker of the House of Representatives his written declaration that no inability exists, he shall resume the powers and duties of his office unless the Vice President and a majority of either the principal officers of the executive department or of such other body as Congress may by law provide, transmit within four days to the President pro tempore of the Senate and the Speaker of the House of Representatives their written declaration that the President is unable to discharge the powers and duties of his office. Thereupon Congress shall decide the issue, assembling within forty-eight hours for that purpose if not in session. If the Congress, within twenty-one days after receipt of the latter written declaration, or, if Congress is not in session, within twenty-one days after Congress is required to assemble, determines by two-thirds vote of both Houses that the President is unable to discharge the powers and duties of his office, the Vice President shall continue to discharge the same as Acting President; otherwise, the President shall resume the powers and duties of his office.

Hell look at what they did to Jimmy Carter. Nobody fucking believes he knows what the fuck he is doing or who he is voting for.
Oo. You didn't think that was authentic? The centenarian passed out on a gurney while his son was xeeting how enthusiastic he was for Kamala? No wonder your an election denier!
Chicago lost a district to Trump. There's a chink in that armor...
Hehehe. He said chink.
 
How is it even possible for Trump to not get the popular vote, at this point? There just aren't enough votes to flip it anymore. Am I missing something here?
California still only has 59% reporting, so the only possibility for Trump to lose it at this point is if the remaining vote is heavily tilted towards Kamala. (This won't happen, she's only up 17 points in the state.)
That's also why people who keep saying Trump is less popular/got less votes this year need to have fucking patience. He'll almost assuredly get the 2 million votes required to match his 2020 performance once CA finishes the count.
 
Wonder if they had some gay thing planned where they were going to swap out the VP seal for the Presidential seal during her planned victory speech.
Holy shit, you might be on to something. I bet the plan was she wins, and then Biden announced he is stepping down as president in order to give her a head start on the presidency.
 
our typical Xerox Digital Printing machine at Staples can print Duplex up to 80 pages per minute.

80 x 60 minutes is 4800 pages, 4800 x 24 hours is 115,200, 115,200 x 30 days is 3,456,000. If you have a fleet of these printers to about 5, that's 17,280,000 ballots that could be printed in less than 2 months with margin of error of print mistakes.
You're over thinking it. They just keep running a few stacks of the same ballot into the scanner over and over. Also maybe you had 6 scanners assigned to your polling station. 2 of them "are down" and they take them to a back room and just run it.

Also they could be preprinted and hidden under a table in a tote box to be "found" when needed. All you have to do is immediately shred all paper ballots the next day so no audits can happen, like in GA.
