Joe Biden projected President-Elect in 2024 Election

[Pakuni]

Weren't people predicting riots when Trump lost?  Been pretty peaceful.  Many may be hoping for it to get ugly, but it won't and things will transfer peacefully as it has done for the past 240 years.

I don't think many are or were hoping for it to get ugly. That's a ridiculous thing to say.

I may be proven wrong here, but my suspicion is that once he accepts the inevitable, he's going to pack up and head to Mar-a-Lago. America is going to have an absentee landlord for December and most of January.

If Trump has half a brain (and there is no convincing evidence that he does), he'll make a deal with Pence to pardon him for everything, resign the presidency, and disappear.  Pence should know he's not the 2024 candidate and his only chance to ever be president would be the next two months.

A federal pardon won't protect him from Letitia James. He'll be under a legal microscope like he's never been before. I'm not sure how I feel about that. Punishing his rampant criminality won't necessarily heal the nation.

Also doesn't protect him from the IRS.

I mean. You cannot even make this up. Staffer schedules a desperation presser at the wrong place and they just have to go through with it. At a landscaping company. It's funnier than a fictional comedy.

40 different states have a population of less than 9 million.

Today, California surpassed 9 million votes for Joe Biden and there are still many votes to count there.

Donald Trump has received more votes in California than the total population of 25 individual states.

Chicago and from what I've seen of many other cities looked like the ending scenes from Star Wars Return of the Jedi where there's celebrations everywhere.

Hope that the right gives him an honest shot with a pandemic going on it's important he gets it.

Friends saw fireworks after CNN called it in both London and Manchester.

Not just American's celebrating this.

Sooooooo refreshing...

+1.

His cognitive ability seems just fine to me.

 He really sounds mentally compromised

So far even Foxnews is speaking positively about his speech.

[Uncle Rico]

So far even Foxnews is speaking positively about his speech.

Have to think the Murdoch's would rather attack Biden's presidency than have to defend Trump's for another 4 years.  Will be curious if the 3 clowns of prime time Fox pivot quickly to attacking the future president than fighting to save the current one.  That seems a lot simpler

Both speeches were excellent. During Kamala's speech, I turned to my wife and saw her crying. Incredibly powerful and long overdue for 50+% of our population to finally see themselves represented in the White House.

I'd hope after that speech, more republican senators will step forward, congratulate Biden and say they look forward to working with him.

I had tears in my eyes watching Kamala's speech with my 2 daughters.  It means so much to me to see the first female VP and it is such a great example for my daughters.

My wife pretty much uttered the same thing to me.

A landscaping company...next to a porn shop!

My eyes welled up thinking about my 14 year old niece, who couldn't watch the early returns as they were in Trump's favor, scared for her future, and my 10 year old niece, who in 2016 asked her mom "why did we have a President who hates me?"

Not anymore, girls. Not anymore.

I could write jokes for 800 years and I'd never think of something funnier than Trump booking the Four Seasons for his big presser, and it turning out to be the Four Seasons Total Landscaping parking lot between a dildo store and a crematorium.

Loved seeing the Biden and Harris families on the stage with those fireworks going and the music playing. Obviously so much love and togetherness.

And so many Americans could say, "Hey ... they look like me!"

A great end to a great day!

That's sort of the way i felt re Bush/Cheney and the Wall Street crowd . Now I say nuts to that.  Letting these bastards off the hook isn't going to heal anything so you might as well go at them 100% and lock them up. We can't let this "rampant criminality" go unpunished.
And investigate Comey while you're at it. Isn't gross incompetence some kind of a felony?

Update:

Some Fulton County Provisional ballots were not included in last nights totals, and, some ballots were not scanned. Fulton County's results for Friday are being rescanned right now to add these missing ballots.

The 9,160 total difference will likely grow a bit higher when those are completed and added to the total.

Biden now leads Georgia by 10,195 votes. (Fulton County)

While they might conduct some recounts, all of these margins are outside the range where a recount is likely to make any difference.

Yep. It's all over but the pouting.

I'll be more comfortable with your statement after the official canvassing.  I'm ever freaked out by the small mistake of transposing a number or putting one total in the column for the other guy.
