Republicans were able to pull off that stunt in North Carolina and Wisconsin because they controlled both legislative houses and the executive prior to the election. What I expect McConnell and Trump to do is fill as many judicial vacancies as possible, but there's less they can do when it comes to taking actual powers away since the Democrats can block actual legislation in the House.

Right, hence the qualifier of "as possible." A lot of it would require them to hold the House. They're still going to try.

What's to stop the Democrats from just giving that power right back once they control all of the chambers again?

For what it's worth, from Victoria, Australia - good luck you mob.

I've friends over there in the states and this year I've been fearful for them, I still am - and for you lot as well.

Here's to anyone other than a washed up, bankrupt, reality tv star turned fascist running your country next year.

Not to sure he's gonna get reelected.

Ironbite-chances are rather slim right now.

I'm still nervous, but if trends hold, Biden's got all of the remaining battlegrounds except North Caronlina.

I really hope Georgia goes to Biden just so that its election-stealing Governor who bragged about deporting undocumented immigrants in his truck has to sign something appointing the Democratic slate as Georgia's electors.

Biden's overtaken Trump in Georgia! If the lead holds this could be over. Well not over Trump will challenge it until inauguration day. But the election will be declared.

So who puts him over?  PA, GA, or NV?

Well, it's de facto over. Trump will likely take North Carolina, but he can't keep up in Pennsylvania, Georgia, Arizona or Nevada.

We will soon have an adult in the White House again!

I mean there's still mechanisms the GOP can use to try to do stuff, for instance by having Republican Governors of states Biden carried (like Georgia and Arizona in particular, but in theory some New England states and Maryland, too) refuse to certify those electors.

The Electoral Count Act is a mess.

Yes please overturn this election during a pandemic.  When your state budgets are in shambles, people are dying wholesale and mostly from your mishandling of the pandemic, and oh yeah, Trump won't offer one red cent.

Ironbite-they're jettisoning him and hoping to keep his cult around for easy votes.

And now Trump is a lame duck. Congratulations Biden!
