if it takes them this much to count the first time i cant even imagine how much it will take a recount, they are doing it this slow on pupose to probably delay the recount too until alaska is finally stolen

Arizona is the "swing state" now. Either they are delaying to see how Georgia, Pennsylvania, Michigan, or Wisconsin play out to "add" dem votes or they are being watched like hawks while counting.

alaska is only a few seats and won't matter.

delaying doesn't benefit biden... it benefits trump. if they're still recounting as required by law on the certification date, they can't certify. a state failing to certify means it casts no EC votes. we're looking at flips or failures to certify in PA, GA, AZ, MI, WI, and potentially VA. in that case, no one gets the 270 EC votes to become president. results are certified by the state legislatures, which are dominated by reps in all but 2 swings states. it only takes 21 EC votes to fail to certify, so even 2 states failing to certify means no one wins at the EC.

then the 12th amendment takes over, and a vote is held by the house. but it's not a normal house vote. each representative does not get a vote like in normal house votes. each state gets only 1 vote. and their vote delegation is from the majority party in their state. that means reps get 37 votes and dems get 12.

even CNN's van jones held a TED talk about it. they know where this is going.

Every seat matters at this point

Arizona came to school in the short bus and the other states really only ever saw it around lunchtime and on special occasions.

Unfortunately there probably won't be a recount because you need to be within.0.1 percent in az. We need to sue

if true, at current vote count (approx 3.3 million) DJT needs to be within 3300 votes to force a recount.
