NEW: Trump campaign says its filed a suit in Michigan to try to halt counting of ballots

This makes no sense. You've always been allowed to count the votes.
EDIT: They're saying they want meaningful access but it's not clear what that means. They haven't been banned from observing. Do they want to personally review ballots.

Re: U.S Election 2020
I think they're going to sue or demand recounts in every close state and drag out to the Supreme Court wherever possible. For what goal I don't know.

Yup - from The Guardian blog https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/...e_iOSApp_Other
Quote:
"We also demand to review those ballots which were opened and counted while we did not have meaningful access. President Trump is committed to ensuring that all legal votes are counted in Michigan and everywhere else.”

CNN projects Wisconsin for Biden, not a surprise at this point.

That absolutely what they’re going to do. Well the goal is to ensure either they win or the election is discredited.

Re: U.S Election 2020
Arizona is being more central to the Trump picture now. Seems like it's going Biden so far but Fox News and AP might have been too quick to call it.

He has been doing this all day. The media, even Fox, seems to just be ignoring him.

CNN projects Michigan.
Pennsylvania would put him over the top or two of Nevada, Arizona or Georgia.
Of course, the more he gets the harder it'll be for Trump to stop.

Re: U.S Election 2020
Or if you take that projection and the Fox one for Arizona he needs any one other of the contiguous states.

Re: U.S Election 2020
As you can guess, this Fox News journalist isn’t very popular with some Fox viewers.

So they can both get 269.
(and yes, there is a process to follow if neither gets the required 270).
