#Us presidential election update

[welcometoqueer]

Just to be clear, Kamala conceded with grace and dignity but it is still well within everyone’s right to demand an investigation and even a recount with due cause despite a winner being declared. U.S.Americans have the right to demand free and fair elections (we don’t have a right to, say, start an insurrection like certain people did after the 2020 election).

Many, including major swing states, (Nevada, Wisconsin, Pennsylvania, and more) have already admitted to data and ballots not being recognized or lost and are recounting or calling for a recount. It usually takes days to count and record votes, a day after a bunch of election tampering is not enough.

If you used a mail-in ballot and haven’t yet, check if it was actually counted and “recognized.” A lot of mail-in voters from swing states found out that their ballots were uncounted today.

Global Market Update: Stocks Rally Amid Mixed Signals

The CAC 40 in France, Germany’s DAX, and London’s FTSE 100 all experienced a positive start on Tuesday morning, following a robust performance in the US stock market. The surge was primarily driven by gains in major technology companies, which helped counterbalance a decline in the oil and gas sector.

When Will We Know the U.S. Election Results? A Look at Presidential Election Timelines

Every election year, millions of Americans and people around the world eagerly await the final results of the U.S. presidential race.

Check Live Result

However, if you’re expecting to know the outcome on election night, history suggests you might want to wait a bit longer. Despite election night projections, the official counting of ballots has never been completed on Election Day.

Here’s what you need to know about when election results are typically announced—and how it’s played out in some of the most notable elections over recent decades.

Why Election Night Projections Aren’t Final?

In recent years, we’ve grown accustomed to news outlets calling a winner by the time we go to bed or wake up the morning after casting our votes. But local and state certification deadlines vary widely, often stretching from two days after Election Day to over a month.

In past elections like 2000 and 2020, legal challenges and increased mail-in voting delayed final counts. With certain state laws like those in Pennsylvania and Wisconsin prohibiting early vote counting, we may again see a slower reporting process.

Remember: A delay doesn’t mean anything’s gone wrong. It simply means election officials are carefully counting each ballot to ensure accuracy.

A Look Back: When Were Presidential Results Announced?

Here’s a quick timeline of when the world learned the results in the last six U.S. presidential elections:

2020: Biden vs. Trump

Election Day: November 3 Result: November 7 It took four days before news outlets projected Joe Biden as the winner over Donald Trump. A high volume of mail-in ballots due to COVID-19 delayed results in key states.

2016: Trump vs. Clinton

Election Day: November 8 Result: November 9, 3 a.m. EST In a late-night race, Donald Trump’s victory over Hillary Clinton was confirmed early the morning after Election Day.

2012: Obama vs. Romney

Election Day: November 6 Result: Before midnight Barack Obama’s reelection was called before midnight, securing his victory over Mitt Romney relatively quickly.

2008: Obama vs. McCain

Election Day: November 4 Result: Around 11 p.m. EST Obama’s first presidential win was called around 11 p.m. after polls closed, giving him a decisive victory over John McCain.

2004: Bush vs. Kerry

Election Day: November 2 Result: The following morning John Kerry conceded to President George W. Bush via phone shortly after 11 a.m., the day after Election Day.

2000: Bush vs. Gore

Election Day: November 7 Result: December 12 This election stands out as one of the most contentious. Al Gore and George W. Bush’s razor-thin margins in Florida led to a legal standoff. The Florida Supreme Court approved a recount, which the Bush campaign contested, leading to the U.S. Supreme Court’s intervention. The Court’s ruling on December 12, after weeks of recounts and court battles, awarded Florida to Bush by just 537 votes—making him the 43rd president of the United States.

Why Election Results May Be Delayed Again?

Extended polling hours, closely contested races, and laws around early vote counting could all contribute to delays in knowing the final outcome. While we may see projected results, the official tally follows a methodical, state-specific process to ensure accuracy. So, this year, as you await the results, remember that patience is key—and a longer wait doesn’t mean there’s trouble.

In every election, ensuring that every vote is counted takes time. Stay tuned, and keep an eye on state-by-state announcements as the official results roll in.

Actor Leonardo DiCaprio Endorses Kamal Harris With Regards To Climate Change

Actor Leonardo DiCaprio endorses Kamala Harris, says he is doing so because Donald Trump doesn't care about Climate Change. DiCaprio is well known for traveling on gas-guzzling private jets and yachts. "These unnatural disasters were caused by climate change. Donald Trump continues to deny the facts. He continues to deny the science."

"He withdrew the United States from the Paris Climate Accords and rolled back critical environmental protections."

"Now, he's promised the oil and gas industry that he'll get rid of any regulation they want in exchange for a billion-dollar donation. Climate change is k*lling the earth and ruining our economy."

"We need a bold step forward to save our economy, our planet, and ourselves. That's why I'm voting for Kamala Harris."

“Climate change is killing the earth and ruining our economy. We need a bold step forward to save our economy, our planet and ourselves. That’s why I’m voting for Kamala Harris.” - Leonardo DiCaprio

I haven’t really seen any of the more recent U.S. election news hitting tumblr yet so here’s some updates (now edited with sources added):

There’s evidence of Trump cheating and interfering with the election.

Possible Russian interference.

Mail-in ballots are not being counted or “recognized” in multiple (notably swing) states.

30+ bomb threats were called in and shut down polling stations on Election Day.

20+ million votes are still unaccounted for, and that’s just to have the same voter turnout as 2020.

There was record voter turnout and new/first-time voter registration this year. We definitely should be well over the turnout in 2020.

U.S. citizens are using this site to demand, not only a recount, but a complete investigation into election fraud and interference for the reasons stated above:

Here is what I submitted as an example:

An investigation for election interference and fraud is required. We desperately need a recount or even a revote. The American people deserve the right to a free and fair election. There has been evidence unveiled of Trump cheating and committing election fraud which is illegal. There is some evidence of possible Russian interference. At least 30+ bomb threats were called in to polling places. Multiple, notably swing states, have ballots unaccounted for and voting machines not registering votes. Ballots and ballot boxes were tampered with and burned. Over 20 million votes that we know of are unaccounted for. With record turnout and new voter registration this year, there should be no possibility that there are less votes than even in the 2020 election.

Sources (working on finding more links but if anyone wants to add info, it’s appreciated):

FBI addressing Russian interference and bomb threats:

Emails released by Rachael Bellis (private account, can’t share original tweet) confirming Trump committing election fraud:

Pennsylvania's Centre County officials say they are working with their ballot scanner vendor to figure out why the county's mail-in ballot data is "not being recognized when uploaded to the elections software:”

Multiple screenshots and images.

The first is a screenshot with a link and information for contacting the White House directly regarding election fraud. The instructions include choosing to leave a comment to President Joe Biden directly and to select election security as the reason.

The screenshot then instructs people to include any or all of the following information in a paragraph as a comment to the president:

32 fake bomb threats were called into Democratic leaning poll places, rendering polling places closed for at least an hour.

A lot of people reporting their ballots were not counted for various reasons.

This all occurred in swing states.

This is too coincidental that these things happen and swing in his favor after months of hinting at foul play.

Directly state that an investigation for tampering, interference, fraud is required, not just a recount.

The second image is from the FBI Twitter account that reads:

The FBI is aware of bomb threats to polling locations in several states, many of which appear to originate from Russian email domains. None of the threats have been determined to be credible thus far. https://t.co/j3YfajVK1m — FBI (@FBI) November 5, 2024

The next four Gmail screenshots of an email sent to Rachael Bellis from Chris T. Spackman that read together as follows:

Dear BELLIS, RACHAEL E., The Dauphin County Board of Elections received a challenge to your absentee ballot you applied for in the November 5, 2024 General Election. The challenge argues that a provision of the Pennsylvania Election Code takes precedence over the federal Uniformed and Overseas Citizens Absentee Voting Act (UOCAVA), which requires states and counties to permit U.S. citizens who move overseas to vote by absentee ballot for federal offices based on their last U.S. residential address.

The full text of the challenge that was filed appears below this email.

You may respond to the challenge in any of the following ways:

1. Call the Bureau of Registration and Election at (717) 780-6360;

2. Email a statement to the Bureau at Election election@dauphincounty.gov. Any statement you submit regarding the period during which you lived in Dauphin County, any family or connections that you still have here, and why you are now residing abroad would be read into the record.

3. Appear in person at a Board of Elections hearing scheduled for Friday, November 8 at a time to be determined in the Commissioners Public Hearing Room, 4th floor of Dauphin County Administration Building, 2 S 20d St, Harrisburg, PA 17111. The meeting is also likely to be livestreamed on Facebook on the Dauphin County channel.

Sincerely,

Christopher T Spackman

TEXT OF CHALLENGE BEGINS

Dear Dauphin County Board of Elections,

I am submitting this challenge to an absentee ballot application pursuant to 25 Pa. Stat.

3146.8(f).

25 Pa. Stat. 3146.8(f) Any person challenging an application for an absentee ballot, an absentee ballot, an application for a mail-in ballot or a mail-in ballot for any of the reasons provided in this act shall deposit the sum of ten dollars ($10.00) in cash with the county board, which sum shall only be refunded if the challenge is sustained or if the challenge is withdrawn within five (5) days after the primary or election. If the challenge is dismissed by any lawful order then the deposit shall be forfeited. The county board shall deposit all deposit money in the general fund of the…

The rest of the forwarded email is cut off.

The last image is a screenshot of the official statement from the Centre County, Pennsylvania Board of Commissioners released on November 6, 2024 that states:

Centre County Working with Ballot Scanner Vendor to Export Election Results.

(Bellefonte, PA) -Centre County Elections Office is working continuously to provide mail-in ballot data in order to post unofficial results.

To this point, all ballots have been scanned, including all mail-in ballots.

Centre County's Election team and IT team have identified that the data are successfully being exported from the mail-in ballot scanners, but that the data is not being recognized when uploaded to the elections software.

Centre County's Administrator, John Franek, Jr. stated, "We have not stopped working, and we will continue to work until unofficial results are posted and reported to the Pennsylvania Department of State."

As a next step, Centre County has begun working with the equipment vendor to adjust configurations to make the two systems-the mail-in ballot scanner and the elections software where data are uploaded -compatible with one another.

We will provide updates as we make progress.

First wave of exit polls are in! They have noted that the first wave tends to skew a little left, but they are pointing out the significance of how the state of democracy, not the economy, has the highest percentage.

PELOSI SAYS WHAT?????

"US Muslim group condemns Pelosi for saying Gaza ceasefire protests have Russia link

By Kanishka Singh, January 28, 2024 3:44 PM EST. Updated 2 min ago

Pelosi made the remarks in a CNN interview after she was asked whether opposition to President Joe Biden's policy in the war in Gaza could hurt the Democrat in November's presidential election.

"For them to call for a ceasefire is Mr. Putin's message, Mr. Putin's message. Make no mistake this is directly connected to what he (Russian President Vladimir Putin) would like to see," Pelosi told CNN.

"I think some of these protesters are spontaneous, and organic, and sincere. Some I think are connected to Russia," she said. "Some financing should be investigated and I want to ask the FBI to investigate that."
