CNN had Gabe Sterling, the GA Voting System Implementation Manager on live. They were talking about how there was some confusion over the number of votes left to count, and he said there had been a discrepancy. As soon as he said it I was like, oh no, the conspiracy theory people will be all over this! I don't even know what the discrepancy was but I think it was some minor misreporting thing.

Anyway, now Wolf Blitzer is dramatically explaining that "WE JUST DON'T KNOW, and WE'RE NOT GONNA KNOW until all the votes have been counted." No shit sherlock!

Hopefully we win by more than 41,000. I don't want to give the base red meat, nor hear "fraud" from my co-workers.

report, not the 171K everyone has been saying. 130K, even at 80+%Dem, wouldn’t cut the margin enough. The Commissioner is a really loyal Democrat.
