As we currently stand, the presidential election happened yesterday, but we don’t know who won it. Many thousands of mail-in ballots were still uncounted on election night in states like Pennsylvania, Nevada, Michigan and Georgia. For some of those states, the counts were halted overnight. We are told that they had to stop counting so that the counters could sleep, leaving the nation in limbo as they rest soundly in their beds. Apparently these states have never heard of novel concepts like working in shifts.
Nevada election officials have already said that they will not announce any more updates until November 5. In Pennsylvania, incredibly, mail-in ballots will be counted up to three days after the election, and ballots that are not clearly postmarked from before the election will still be counted. Meanwhile, Arizona, which some outlets called for Joe Biden last night, was put back in play after an “error” made it seem like 98 percent, rather than 86 percent, of the vote had been tallied. On Twitter, President Trump suggested that his lead in key states had “magically disappeared” overnight. This tweet, along with several others of his from today and election night, were censored by Twitter and labeled “disputed” or “misleading.” My own tweet, expressing my personal opinion about the vote count, was also censored after Trump retweeted it.
