However I won't allow myself to get too optimistic. If I remember correctly Georgia will count military ballots that come in on or before November 10, so the count won't be finished before then. Once it is complete, it's safe to assume there will be a recount. This will go on for a while. Biden is ahead now in Georgia 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A 3K upset, more than enough, though will permit a recount. Biden has overtaken Trump in Georgia, as per Fox. 1000 votes lead now. Pennsylvania shall follow suit any minute/hour now, upon similar trend. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Quote North Korea's nuclear, missile programs 'serious threat' to security: Pentagon chief WASHINGTON (Reuters) - U.S. Defense Secretary Mark Esper on Wednesday said North Korea’s nuclear and missile programs pose a global threat, after Pyongyang’s unveiling of previously unseen intercontinental ballistic missiles at a predawn military parade. The appearance of a new intercontinental ballistic missile (ICBM) during a weekend parade in North Korea captivated many Western analysts. But officials in South Korea were far more concerned by the display of new multiple launch rocket systems (MLRS) and fast, maneuverable short-range missiles that would be ideal for striking targets in the South. https://www.reuters.com/article/us-usa-northkorea-southkorea-military-idUSKBN26Z2NT Quote Growing North Korean nuclear threat awaits US election winner WASHINGTON — “Where’s the war?” That’s how President Donald Trump defends his North Korea policy at campaign rallies even though he’s joined the list of U.S. presidents unable to stop the ever-growing nuclear threat from Kim Jong Un. That threat will transcend the November election, no matter who wins. Despite Trump’s three meetings with Kim, the North Korean leader is expanding his arsenal. This month, Kim rolled out a shiny new, larger intercontinental ballistic missile during a nighttime parade in Pyongayng. Arms experts said the missile could possibly fire multiple nuclear warheads at the United States. It serves as a reminder that despite Trump’s boasts, North Korea remains one of the biggest dangers to U.S. national security. https://www.militarytimes.com/news/your-military/2020/10/21/growing-north-korean-nuclear-threat-awaits-us-election-winner/ Edited November 6, 2020 by TallGuyJohninBKK 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
