Team Trump Predicts Reelection by Friday

President Trump’s team has a message for Joe Biden: Not so fast.

With Biden poised to suggest he won the election despite millions of votes set to be counted, the Trump campaign Wednesday afternoon said that its data shows that it will cross the needed 270 electoral votes by Friday, securing a second term and robbing the Democrat of a victory virtually every media pollster gave to Biden.

“By the end of this week, it will be clear to the entire nation that President Trump and Vice President Pence will be elected for another four years,” said campaign adviser Jason Miller.

In a call to talk numbers, the campaign said that its data operation believes it will get the votes needed to win in Pennsylvania and Arizona, and, when added to the expected Georgia and North Carolina wins, a second term will be assured. . .

“Over these next couple of days, as these ballots come in and are counted in the state of Arizona, that we could be looking at, potentially as soon as Friday, President Trump being declared the winner or it being clear that he has enough votes to formally say he will win the state of Arizona,” said Miller.

Biden Advisor Claims Victory; President Trump Also Declares Victory (VIDEO)

By Daily Wire. Early Wednesday morning, President Trump declared victory in the presidential election. But also on Wednesday, an advisor for Democratic presidential nominee Joe Biden acted in the same fashion, claiming at a press briefing Biden had won the presidency.

Former White House counsel and current Biden campaign adviser Bob Bauer boasted, “We’re winning the election; we’ve won the election and we’re going to defend that election.” He also stated, “We’re going to defend this vote; the vote by which Joe Biden has been elected to the presidency.”

Ironically, prior to Bauer’s claim, as Axios noted, he and Biden campaign manager Jen O’Malley Dillon bashed President Trump for claiming he had won the election. Bauer stated of President Trump:

He had apparently huddled with his advisors and analysts and he realized that what Jen said was true, and hustled out to say that he needed the vote count stopped because he knew where it was going to lead. Now what he said yesterday was extraordinary but I think, entirely consistent with Republican attacks on the voting process, and I’d like to take you through a few points of where the Republicans have been, where they’re going, and why they’re going to fail.

Trump Prematurely Declares Victory, Says He’ll Go to Supreme Court

By The Hill. President Trump early Wednesday declared victory in the presidential race against Democratic nominee Joe Biden even as millions of votes were still being counted across multiple states and the president said he would be going to the Supreme Court in an attempt to stop ballot counting.

Trump asserted that he had won states like Georgia, North Carolina and Michigan despite there still being tens of thousands of ballots still outstanding.

No media outlet has called a winner in those states, no election officials have declared a winner and Democratic presidential nominee Joe Biden may still overtake Trump on the strength of mail ballots that are still being counted in Michigan and Wisconsin.

“This is a fraud on the American public. This is an embarrassment to our country. We were getting ready to win this election. Frankly, we did win this election,” Trump said in remarks from the East Room of the White House.

President Trump Should Be Declared the Winner, but Establishment Is Trying to Steal the Vote; Watch His Post-Election Speech

National Guard Brought in to Help With Wisconsin Ballot Counting Issue

By Fox News. Poll workers in two Wisconsin counties — with the help of at least 20 National Guards members — will have to transcribe votes from at least 13,500 misprinted absentee ballots to clean ballots, possibly delaying reporting of results.

The state Supreme Court refused to issue a ruling on the ballots at issue, which cannot be fed into electronic tabulating machines, and instead told Outagamie and Calumet counties to use the statutorily prescribed method of ballot duplication for counting ballots of this nature.

“The duplication process will take additional time, so the public should be aware that election results will be delayed,” Outagamie County Clerk Lori O’Bright said in a statement. “They will be posted as soon as possible.” (Read more from “National Guard Brought in to Help With Wisconsin Ballot Counting Issue” HERE)

Mysterious Burst Pipe Stops Ballot Counting in Atlanta — Perhaps to Give Time for Ballot Fabrication?

By JACQUELINE FELDSCHER. Election results for the Georgia county that includes the vast majority of Atlanta will be delayed because a pipe burst in a room where absentee ballots were being counted, the Atlanta Journal Constitution reported Tuesday.

A delay in processing absentee votes in Fulton, Georgia’s largest county, will affect how quickly statewide results can be reported in a tightly contested state that could help decide the presidency. . .

Officials had hoped to count three-quarters of ballots by between 10 and 11 p.m., but the pipe burst is likely to make that impossible.

The county may not be able to fully report results until Friday, elections board member Mark Wingate told the newspaper. (Read more about this story HERE)

Election-Related Legal Wrangling Underway in Pennsylvania, Nevada

By Politico. Last-minute legal jockeying over Tuesday’s election led Democrats to head off a GOP effort to halt vote-counting in Nevada’s most populous county, while Republicans in Pennsylvania filed two lawsuits seeking to block counting of some absentee votes in the state.

The Nevada Supreme Court rejected a bid by President Donald Trump’s campaign to block the tallying of votes in Clark County, which includes Las Vegas and accounts for more than two-thirds of the state’s population. . .

Republicans in Pennsylvania, meanwhile, filed a suit seeking to block election officials from counting provisional ballots submitted by voters whose absentee ballots were disqualified.

Secretary of State Kathy Boockvar, a Democrat, issued guidance to counties last month saying that voters whose mail-in or absentee ballots were rejected could still obtain a provisional ballot on Election Day and vote that way.

Philadelphia Has Stopped Counting Mail-in Votes; May Take Days to Fabricate Ballots for Biden

By CNBC. Election results from Michigan, Wisconsin and Pennsylvania could take until later this week to complete official tallies, according to officials.

The three states represent a combined 46 electoral votes, with 16 from Michigan, 20 from Pennsylvania and 10 from Wisconsin. That’s nearly a fifth of the required 270 electoral votes for a victory.

Georgia and North Carolina, which both were too close to call just after midnight Wednesday, also are likely to take some more time as more ballots come in. Georgia has 16 electoral votes, and North Carolina has 15. . .

Officials in Michigan and Wisconsin have also said it will take extra time to count all of their ballots. Michigan officials believe they need 24 more hours to tally votes, MSNBC reported late Tuesday.

Election Betting Odds Shift in Favor of President Trump

Election betting odds are shifting in favor of President Donald Trump as Democratic presidential candidate Joe Biden is underperforming in several key battleground states that political polling projected him to win.

As of 11:30 p.m. ET, European sportsbook Betfair gave Trump -156 odds to win the U.S. presidential election, a 60.6% chance. Biden is at +152 odds, a 39.4% chance to win.

“It appears the betting market may have overreacted to what appears will be a convincing Trump victory in the state of Florida. Betting odds are starting to shift back to former Vice President Joe Biden, though he far from the favorite he was earlier on Election Day,” Action Network reported late Tuesday.

The odds for Trump have improved significantly since Monday evening, when Biden was given a two-thirds chance to beat Trump at 11:30 p.m. that day.

As of publishing time, Trump is projected to win the key battleground states of Florida and Ohio and is leading in the vote counts for Georgia and North Carolina. Fox News projected that Biden will win Arizona. (Read more from “Election Betting Odds Shift in Favor of President Trump” HERE)

If Joe Biden Is Dragged Over the Finish Line, Democrats Will Quickly Drop Him

There’s an extremely mean and (consequently) extremely funny video, “Weekend at Biden’s,” in which the propped-up, lifeless form of Joe Biden gets dragged out of his basement and pulled from event to event by two young woke activists.

“How long do we have to keep this up?” one asks the other, exhausted. “November 3,” says the other.

Relax, young woke-tivists: You carried Joe to Nov. 3, and according to most pollsters, a thundering victory awaits you. If Biden concludes his inaugural address with the memorable words, “Now can I go back to my basement and watch ‘Matlock’?,” everyone around him will be happy to oblige. . .

No matter what Biden does to steer the country to the left, the media will be daydreaming about how Kamala Harris would lean so much harder on the tiller. Suddenly, Biden’s brain freezes and mangled sentences will no longer be innocent “gaffes” but signs of incipient dementia. Doesn’t the 25th Amendment call for the president’s removal if he can’t cut it anymore? Maybe Biden, having achieved his life’s goal, should quickly step down for everyone’s sake, the media will suggest. Maybe the Washington Post will even decide the Biden family buckraking is actually worth looking into — and that it’s impeachable.

Biden may be elected president Tuesday, but if so, it won’t be long before the self-described “transition candidate” gets told he needs to transition his way to a nice, comfy facility in Boca Raton.

Networks Forced to Pull Biden Projection in Virginia After Race Becomes Too Close to Call

A number of mainstream news media outlets including Fox News, National Public Radio, the Associated Press, and others projected Democratic Presidential Nominee Joe Biden winning the state of Virginia shortly after it started reporting, only to be forced to retract their projections as the race margin narrowed.

These same networks delayed calling Indiana and South Carolina despite both of which were conceded to President Donald J. Trump with large leads and refused to call Florida despite every indication in the reported numbers that the state was going to go red again.

As The Federalist’s Sean Davis noted, in 2016 Trump was lost Virginia’s Loudon County by at least 30,000 votes. This year, however, things changed when 98 of the state’s 99 precincts show that Trump is winning by 13 points. . .

Local Authorities Came to a Conclusion About the Biden Bus Fiasco (VIDEO)

The Biden campaign on Friday decided to cancel a bus tour in Texas after a long line of Trump supporters with decked out cars and trucks coordinated to follow the bus. The tour bus made a brief appearance in Downtown Austin before the lid was called. Apparently this would take away from vice presidential candidate Kamala Harris’ stump in the Lone Star State.

Numerous people associated with the Biden campaign claimed Trump supporters attempted to run the bus off the side of the road. Pictures of a white SUV that was with the bus floated on Twitter throughout the weekend with Democratic talking heads claiming a Trump supporter in a black truck attempted to run the Biden bus – and the white SUV that was serving as an escort – off the road.

What was cherrypicked from this story: a video that clearly shows the white SUV in the second lane from the right. The SUV then tries to cut the black truck off to merge into the lane. The problem? The truck didn’t allow them to get in.

After reviewing the evidence, the San Marcos Police Department said they believe the white SUV was at-fault, WFLA-TV reported.

“The at-fault vehicle may be the white SUV and the victim appears to be the black truck,” a statement from SMPD reads.

Report: Biden Intends to ‘Address Nation’ as ‘New Leader’

Former Vice President Joe Biden will “address the nation as its new leader, even if President Trump continues to fight in court” if the media declare him the mathematical winner on Election Day.

“We’re not really concerned about what Donald Trump says,” Biden campaign manager Jen O’Malley Dillon told reporters Monday. “We’re going to use our data, our understanding of where this is headed, and make sure that the vice president is addressing the American people.”

Axios reported on the development that Biden, if elected, will lay claim to being in charge of the country even before he is inaugurated:

So if Biden is declared the winner, he’ll begin forming his government and looking presidential — and won’t yield to doubts Trump might try to sow.

Biden’s schedule for Tuesday includes a clue to this posture: He “will address the nation on Election Night in Wilmington, Delaware.”

Trump Campaign Predicts Absolute Landslide in Battleground States

Speaking to reporters Monday afternoon, a number of Trump campaign officials expressed overwhelming optimism President Donald Trump is going to crush former Vice President Joe Biden on Election Day. They’re on record predicting it will happen all over the map, but especially in the states that matter the most.

In Pennsylvania, if their data and predictive models are correct, it’s going to be a bloodbath.

“The Democrats are going to have somewhere in the neighborhood of a three-quarter million head start heading into tomorrow, probably more than that. What we know right now that there are 2.6 million Trump voters likely to show up tomorrow, and there are 1.5 million remaining Biden voters to show up tomorrow. Pennsylvania, in particular, is going to look on election night on an Election Day vote standpoint like the president wins in an absolute landslide. However, we know the margins he needs to win by in Pennsylvania, and that math is available to us from a turnout perspective,” Trump campaign director of battleground strategy Nick Trainer said.

Biden Campaign Preparing for Post-Election Legal Battle Over Results

The 2020 cycle may be winding to a close, but former Vice President Joe Biden’s campaign is already preparing for a contracted legal battle that might stretch out well past Election Day.

In recent days, according to Politico, Biden’s campaign has begun talks with donors and allies on the financial resources that would be required to combat “prolonged, expensive legal fights,” in several pivotal swing states, especially if the race is as close as many believe.

“On one call with Biden’s Lawyers Committee … aides told attendees how quickly the campaign expected litigation to flood the courts in the hours and days after the election, contending that Biden needed donors ready to support the effort immediately,” Politico reported on Monday.
