WaPo is now reporting that Trump called Kemp *this morning* to ask him to call a special session of the GA legislature to overturn the results of the presidential election and order "an audit of absentee ballot signatures," requests that Kemp denied washingtonpost.com/politics/trump…
so much for the GOP establishment trying to distance themselves/the Trump camp from Sidney Powell and Lin Wood!
.@ajc: "Gov. Brian Kemp, Lt. Gov. Geoff Duncan and House Speaker David Ralston have already rejected calls for a special session, which costs taxpayers $40,000 to $50,000 a day. The General Assembly begins its regular session a few days after the runoff." ajc.com/politics/elect…
Evergreen tweet:
Welp, here’s Trump apparently confirming the reporting from WaPo and other outlets (and again, at the risk of repeating myself, signature matching has already happened twice, both to verify the authenticity of the ballot applications and then the ballots themselves)

hello! While we're waiting for more presidential results, I thought I'd give you an update on the House. @DecisionDeskHQ projects that Republicans have won back 5 seats on net so far. Rs flipped 7 seats and Dems won back 2 thanks to redistricting in NC businessinsider.com/2020-house-ele…
Seats projected to flip D to R, per @DecisionDeskHQ

#IA01 ( Finkenauer)
#FL26 (Mucarsel-Powell)
#FL27 (Shalala)
#MN07 (Peterson)
#NM02 (Torres Small)
#OK05 ( Horn)
#SC01 (Cunningham)

Others to keep an eye on as more votes are counted: #CA21, #CA39, #NY11, #NY22, #UT04
Democrats have also fallen short on many of their offensive targets to flip R-held seats: their most promising pickup opportunity is #GA07, where @DecisionDesk HQ has not projected a winner and we should (hopefully!) get more clarity today as more votes are counted/reported

Another vulnerable freshman House Democrat down — Insider and @DecisionDeskHQ project that Democratic Rep. Joe Cunningham in #SC01 has been defeated by Republican challenger Nancy Mace businessinsider.com/south-carolina… Image
First-term Democrats who flipped R-controlled seats in 2018 but have conceded their 2020 races/been projected to lose by @DecisionDeskHQ:

-Debbie Mucrasel-Powell #FL26
-Donna Shalala #FL27
-Max Rose #NY11
-Xochitl Torres Small #NM02
-Kendra Horn #OK05
-Joe Cunningham #SC01
Abby Finkenauer in #IA01, Anthony Brindisi in #NY22, TJ Cox in #CA21, and Gil Cisneros in #CA39 are all positioned to also conceivably join the list in the coming days, based on @DecisionDeskHQ results

A story I wrote a couple days ago: How to know if a presidential candidate claiming victory has actually won the election. A reminder that a candidate falsely declaring victory has no legal weight and has no bearing on the canvassing process
businessinsider.com/trump-biden-pr…
Everything the president just said is completely nonsensical and incoherent. He's claiming he's winning...and yet wants the counting to be shut down — people who are legitimately winning/won wouldn't need for that to happen
This is also true — you can't just go to the Supreme Court and be like "hey I don't like the fact that these ballots are being counted, pls make it stop." There's def the possibility for future litigation but these cases have to move up through the system

First up, did you know that in many states, you can register to vote in-person and then go vote on Election Day itself? That’s right — 19 states and the District of Columbia now have same-day registration! 2/6
