does akuna sponsor I am really confused...I am supposed to have a final, but "Legal authorization to work in the U.S. is required on the first day of employment including F-1 students using CPT, OPT or STEM" is really confusing tbh
I wonder if they made a mistake

rotund kindle
#

from that statement it sounds like they do

tepid brook
#

Has anyone received Amazon OA1 ( Canada ) my application still shows submitted

hushed hearth
#

at oa2 rn for amazon

#

it was under review for a few days and then I got an email

#

I applied v early though

young moth
#

It's Monday and my department chair still hasn't replied to my email asking for her signature in the independent study form I need approved to get CPT authorization 😦

brittle mesa
#

Akuna def doesn't hire directly from abroad tho, even for interns as everytime I applied they say they're interested but also ask citizenship and don't reply when I say non us/can/aus

tepid brook
#

@hushed hearth I applied late September, did you apply earlier than that?

hushed hearth
#

early September

#

Akuna def doesn't hire directly from abroad tho, even for interns as everytime I applied they say they're interested but also ask citizenship and don't reply when I say non us/can/aus
@brittle mesa it's for internship though

#

Im from Cnada

brittle mesa
#

Yeah if you're canadian that message is irrelevant

hushed hearth
#

@hushed hearth I applied late September, did you apply earlier than that?
@tepid brook also, I literally just got it, so maybe you will hear back soon

tepid brook
#

Ah i see, so i guess they are just slow

hushed hearth
#

Ah i see, so i guess they are just slow
@tepid brook yeah, check 2021_winter...it's p depressing with Amazon

#

it's November and barely anyone heard from them

tepid brook
#

Have you applied to other Faang? And heard back

hushed hearth
#

hmm, I barely applied in Canada tbh; In us, got rejected from msft; waiting for apple & google; but tbh I'd only go for Google or Apple from Big N; I am more interested in finance

#

so no

#

btw, I heard that google is not paying US salaries to Canadians even if you get it

tepid brook
#

I wouldn’t mind, companies pay f*all here locally

hushed hearth
#

some companies in Vancouver p well, no?

#

*pay

tepid brook
#

I’d guess so, but its pretty competitive going against the target schools

opal jetty
#

anyone knows if wealthfront sponsors visas?

leaden escarp
#

Anyone Muslims here know about halal 401K investing?

zinc crag
#

Most people here don’t have jobs or 401ks

inner trail
#

@leaden escarp you can DM me

heady nova
#

hey where can I get list of companies that sponsor visa

#

or what companies do not offer sponsorships to international students

half aurora
#

Did anyone interview with Bytedance recently? Had a few questions. Please DM.

median hare
#

@heady nova I use this if you find it useful

heady nova
#

Thanks 👍

dawn oasis
#

how do international f1 students do off season fall/spring internships? my school visa office said this isnt usually possible.

#

what work auth do ppl use/how do they navigate this?

quiet vine
#

i assume cpt

median hare
#

@dawn oasis part time CPT

dawn oasis
#

ok. do you remain in active status at uni, or do you unenroll for a semester

#

and isn't part time cpt only <= 20 hours a week?

near breach
#

🇺🇸

median hare
#

@dawn oasis You have to remain a full time student to maintain F-1 unless approved by your IC (less coursework, but always being a student). And yes, you are correct. Part time CPT is <= 20 hours a week. You cannot do full time CPT during Fall/Spring season

dawn oasis
#

@median hare thanks! so basically no full time internships for fall/spring for F1 peeps? and also, wdym by IC?

median hare
#

@dawn oasis Exactly, in order to be F-1 you have to be a student, studying lol. International Center = IC

crimson cosmos
#

i wonder what stephen miller has in store for us for the next 4 years

Looks like Trump's gonna win again

Never have I thought this day is possible

little bison
#

so many Fs

hearty terrace
#

good bye summer 2021 internship

long goblet
#

why goodbye 21 internship?

hearty terrace
#

cuz companies will be more stringent on hiring practices after this election

#

4 more years of Trumperino, companies don't know what to expect

crimson cosmos
#

so things are looking up now

median hare
#

I think I have to re evaluate my perception of this country if Trump wins again

lofty siren
#

I think it will force Americans to actually evaluate whether their system still works anymore

#

I thought the 2016 election and the pandemic could let them see, but I guess I’m wrong

long goblet
#

i dont think trump is winning

frosty matrix

@median hare My school allows full-time Internships during Fall/Spring

#

We can also continue our Spring Internship throughout Summer.

#

But we need to take 1 credit CPT course to do that each semester.

#

And that credit doesn't count towards graduation

opal jetty
#

has anyone used pre-OPT for internships?

#

it should be fairly straightforward right

brittle mesa
#

My friend's pre-OPT took ages to come, so somehow ended up convincing school for cpt instead

proud bison
#

We are going to win guys!!!!!

#

Unless some miracle comes for the dumbass

weak ferry
#

Will biden winning change the hiring sentiment in general?

#

As in will more companies be open for internships for internationals

glacial laurel
#

if ur talking companies besides big/well known ones

#

prob not

weak ferry
#

Okay so I'm too late to get a summer internship irrespective of the candidate

#

Fml

#

So it's been me always

glacial laurel
#

tbh idk for sure but i think smaller, more local companies usually dont sponsor (dont quote me on this)

#

so take my words with a grain of salt

#

idk if its too late i think theres still some companies hiring in the spring

brittle mesa
#

@weak ferry a lot of companies hire in march/april too. For this year I started applying in February and had a lot of options(no big n tho they don't interview me lol)

#

And I have to get a visa for the internship as well so it's usually worse odds

weak ferry
#

@weak ferry a lot of companies hire in march/april too. For this year I started applying in February and had a lot of options(no big n tho they don't interview me lol)
@brittle mesa how big are these companies. Anything that pays 30-40

brittle mesa
#

<50 people

#

Pay range for me was 45-60

#

Main difference being because of location changes(I tried to go to different city everytime)

#

Current internship is actually lowest pay <40 but it's not in the US

median hare
#

There are companies that accept OPT, but will likely not sponsor you

brittle mesa
#

^i've heard of that being a lot more common outside tech too

#

Have friends who interned at places, then worked there on opt but the companies didn't apply for h1b

proud bison
#

As in will more companies be open for internships for internationals
@weak ferry you mean more than there were at the beginning of this year recruitment cycle? probably not, but if you ask whether it will stay pretty much the same if Biden wins - most definitely yes

#

if Trump won, there would be almost no chance in next recruiting cycles to get a job as an intl

#

this fight was not about getting things better for us

#

it was to keep us in the same shit we were before, and not get it even worse

#

tbh idk for sure but i think smaller, more local companies usually dont sponsor (dont quote me on this)
@glacial laurel local companies don't sponsor, but they also don't care about your status as long as you have authorization, so yeah you won't have a future there, but they may help you survive a summer with an internship

#

Biden just won Wisconsin!!!

crimson nimbus
#

Pretty sure he's winning at this point

proud bison
#

He almost for sure is winning Michigan, so at this point Biden must either keep Nevada and Arizona, or keep Nevada and win Georgia, or just win Pennsylvania, so no wonder Trump is trying to steal the election through the court

lofty siren
#

Biden will be able to keep Arizona tho

#

So he’s pretty much winning for sure

proud bison
#

honestly, even if Biden doesn't restore H1b (he most likely will), we will at least keep OPTs and shit

#

with Trump, it's likely that we wouldn't

#

Trump literally wanted to kick out all intl students from the US in July

lofty siren
#

Ok he just won arizona

proud bison
#

Just?

#

Wdym

lofty siren
#

Like it just got confirmed by AP

proud bison
#

no

#

It was at 2:50am

lofty siren
#

Wait what?

proud bison
#

YEa

#

Yeah

#

And by Fox News it was confirmed at like 11pm

#

But I don't trust this 100%

#

Like most likely Biden won Arizona, but I'm still a bit skeptical

#

CNN also didnt call it yet

lofty siren
#

Oh lol maybe I’m on some sort of delay

#

Cause I saw the electoral college just jumped from 23x to 24x

proud bison
#

Biden narrows Georgia too, we just don't know if he will manage to gain the lead

#

but Trump literally has 1 path to win at this point

#

he would basically need to win everything thats left

lofty siren
#

Yeah I think trump is gonna start his “everything is a fraud” routine big time now

stoic valley
#

trump's BFS approach to winning turning into DFS

proud bison
#

I mean Trump already when he had his speech at 3am, he was saying "we won" but his face was saying "stop fuckin cheering, we lost unless we steal it"

lofty siren
#

We should get results for every state except Nevada and penn today right

little bison
#

I'm more nervous about this than my home country's election

lofty siren
#

Same

#

I mean there really isn’t an election, but I care abt American politics more in general

proud bison
#

cuz it's unlikely that your country election will ruin you

#

but Trump may

#

We should get results for every state except Nevada and penn today right
@lofty siren why except Nevada?

errant isle
#

Nevada will not resume counting until tmr I read

proud bison
#

Wtf?

lofty siren
#

Nevada said they’re not gonna update their numbers till tmr

proud bison
#

why

#

what the f

lofty siren
#

I think they’re dealing with huge volume of mail in votes

proud bison
#

so we really won't know today

#

I think they’re dealing with huge volume of mail in votes
@lofty siren are you sure they are mail in? not in person?

#

cuz if they are mail in then we are most likely fine

lofty siren
#

Idk for sure, but CNN surmised it’s bc of mail in votes

proud bison
#

let's hope

lofty siren
#

Even if he loses Nevada

#

If Biden gets Arizona and Michigan

#

It’s still a W right

proud bison
#

"All in-person votes had been counted the state said but it still needs to count ballots sent in by the post - including ones which could arrive as late as next Tuesday "

#

Fuck yeah!

lofty siren
#

F it’s not enough

#

Biden needs sth more

#

He’s 2 votes short lol

proud bison
#

2 votes?

#

6 votes

#

if he wins Nevada

#

then he is exactly 270

little bison
#

Yeah he needs nevada

#

Unless he flips PA

proud bison
#

I mean Nevada + Arizona + Michigan looks extremely likely at this point

#

Pennsylvania is more likely for Biden than for Trump

lofty siren
#

Ugh I can’t count anymore

proud bison
#

but it's less likely

#

than Nevada+Arizona+Michigan

little bison
#

Nevada looking kinda close tho

proud bison
#

yeah but they said that in-person votes are already counted

lofty siren
#

Clark is only at 84 percent

#

For Nevada

proud bison
#

and the remaining are mail-in

#

so Biden is going to widen the margin

little bison
#

I'm so glad there's hope today. Last night I just felt sick

proud bison
#

Idk why people felt that way

#

I never felt that Trump is going to win since the election night started

#

And I was watching it all the time

#

there was no indication that Biden is gonna lose

little bison
#

2016 PTSD I guess

lofty siren
#

I think when I saw penn had a huge margin when already 65 percent of vote was in

#

Like I know there’s mail in votes

proud bison
#

I think it's because people were dreaming before the election and they thought Biden was gonna win states like Texas lmfao

lofty siren
#

But also like, is there rlly that many to flip

little bison
#

I think it's because people were dreaming before the election and they thought Biden was gonna win states like Texas lmfao
@proud bison yeah this, and florida

brittle mesa
#

i'm disappointed that it's so close ngl

little bison
#

Polls were wrong

proud bison
#

I was always saying that win will be either through Pennsylvania or Arizona, it was clear from the polls

little bison
#

i'm disappointed that it's so close ngl
@brittle mesa fucking same

proud bison
#

you just need to adjust the polls for skewing democrat

#

i'm disappointed that it's so close ngl
@brittle mesa you were expecting something else

#

?

brittle mesa
#

no

#

disappointed but expected

proud bison
#

yeah exactly, Trump won by 75k in 2016, 2020 winner is gonna win this year by a similar margin

little bison
#

I still don't know why they don't just use popular vote

brittle mesa
#

whats funny is

#

your futures kinda depend on an election you cant vote in

proud bison
#

your futures kinda depend on an election you cant vote in
@brittle mesa yeah no American I know cares about this election as me

crimson nimbus
#

Michigan's almost through

#

98% reporting

proud bison
#

and Biden is still 32k up

#

no path for Trump in Michigan at this point

little bison
#

🥳

brittle mesa
#

surprisingly the person ik who cares the most about this is an american who moved to germany lol

proud bison
#

I still don't know why they don't just use popular vote
@little bison I think electoral college is better after all

#

cuz all states are important

crimson nimbus
#

I just hope he wins PA/GA as well so that Trump can't contest his win

proud bison
#

not only big cities

crimson nimbus
#

if it ends up 270-268, it might take another 1 month

proud bison
#

I just hope he wins PA/GA as well so that Trump can't contest his win
@crimson nimbus I don't see how Trump could contest the win unless Biden wins by 500 votes like George W. Bush

brittle mesa
#

idk tho should 10 people in some remote town haave the same weight as 1000 people in a city?

crimson nimbus
#

I mean he did say he's not gonna go down quietly, so I don't know.. I'm just hoping for the best outcome really

brittle mesa
#

i agree they're important, but for some places the ratios are wack

proud bison
#

if it ends up 270-268, it might take another 1 month
@crimson nimbus it doesn't really work like this, it could be 250-290 and it could be even closer than when it is 268-270

brittle mesa
#

dolan is already taking it to courts, id be surprised if they dont do anything big

crimson nimbus
#

You might be right Damian, but I just really want this to blow over quickly and move onto normalcy.

brittle mesa
#

What even is normalcy anymore my dude

crimson nimbus
#

Trump wasn't it, that's for sure

proud bison
#

imagine Biden winning by 10 votes in Pennsylvania and having 288 electoral college and Trump 250, vs Biden wins by 100k votes but electoral college votes are 268-270

#

in the first case

#

election is extremely close

#

but the electoral votes difference is much bigger than in the second case

#

and it all hinges on 1 state

crimson nimbus
#

Does popular vote even count for anything, if the electoral votes go the other way?

proud bison
#

but in the 2nd case there is no way to contest that

#

Does popular vote even count for anything, if the electoral votes go the other way?
@crimson nimbus no

#

popular vote is a joke

#

you could have 30% popular vote

#

and win election

#

even if there is a tie

#

popular vote doesnt matter

crimson nimbus
#

yeah so I don't understand what you mean, sorry. Like if its 268-270 and Biden's winning with extra 100K popular votes, it still means its close

proud bison
#

I'm not talkinga bout popular votes

#

in general

#

I'm talking about popular votes in states that are being flipped

little bison
#

It's crazy. You can have like 10 more million people vote for you and still lose an election

proud bison
#

I think it's better

#

because folks in California have no idea what's the reality like in Pennsylvania

#

and if not for the electoral college

#

nobody would be listening to people in Pennsylvania

#

you can't imagine a blue-collar worker deciding the fate of an international student interning at Google but it also goes the other way around

#

last evening Trump was up by 16.5% in Pennsylvania, now he is 6.5% and they still have a lot ballots to count

#

let's have hopes🙏

shut drum
#

Kappa

#

People in Pennsylvania should participate more in their local elections then and they would get representation

#

Popular vote makes more sense for a presidential election

proud bison
#

Biden is up by 60k in AP in Michigan holy shit

#

honestly looks like everything hinges on Nevada rn lol

stoic valley
#

havent kept up but i thought the arizona win put biden ahead by a LOT?

proud bison
#

yes that's why it hinges on Nevada and NOT on Pennsylvania

#

but if Biden does win Pennsylvania then neither Arizona nor Nevada matters anymore

#

at this point Biden wins 1 of Nevada, Pennsylvania, Georgia, and I think we are done

pale karma
#

at this point Biden wins 1 of Nevada, Pennsylvania, Georgia, and I think we are done
@proud bison I don’t think Biden’s getting Pennsylvania or Georgia tbh. So if he gets Nevada he wins?

proud bison
#

@pale karma it's only 77 counties

#

@proud bison I don’t think Biden’s getting Pennsylvania or Georgia tbh. So if he gets Nevada he wins?
@pale karma yes

#

I think he also gets Pennsylvania

#

but he doesn't have to

pale karma
#

Oooo I think Biden has it in the bag then pretty much?

proud bison
#

I would say so

#

Biden has 84% chances of winning rn on predictit

#

when I was going to sleep last night, he had like 38%

#

and predictit is a betting thing, so people are trusting with their money that Biden wins

pale karma
#

I think Arizona was the turning point tbh

proud bison
#

yes, when I heard last night at 11pm that Biden was announced a winner in Arizona on Fox News, I was like holy shit we don't need Pennsylvania anymore

lofty siren
#

Why did Fox News announce it that early

proud bison
#

cuz it was apparent already

lofty siren
#

They usually play down Democrats advantages right

proud bison
#

Arizona announced majority of their votes very early

lofty siren
#

Oh ok

#

CNN still hasn’t called it for Arizona sadge

proud bison
#

I think Fox News sometimes is more objective than CNN etc. honestly, but at the same time some people on their station are very heavy on pro-Trump propaganda, so I think it depends on which Fox person you are talking about

#

yeah, they probably just use some different model for calling states

lofty siren
#

Lmao at least fox news’ prime time lineup is horrible

proud bison
#

I don't think they are calling states based on how they feel

#

they probably have some model for this

lofty siren
#

True

proud bison
#

probably if there is more than x% chance of winning, they are calling

#

CNN didn't call it yet but everyone there says that most likely Biden won Arizona

pale karma
#

Wait how does Biden win if he wins Nevada because Nevada is only 6 electoral votes and his current total is 248?

proud bison
#

Trump just went to Supreme Court to stop counting votes in Pennsylvania, that's why I think Trump is going to lose Pennsylvania

#

they wouldn't be doing that if TRump was winning

lofty siren
#

He also wins Michigan and Arizona

#

That’s the scenario, Michigan plus Arizona plus Nevada

proud bison
#

yeah there is no way Trump wins Michigan

pale karma
#

But Arizona is already factored into 248

proud bison
#

and most likely Arizona is for Biden

#

But Arizona is already factored into 248
@pale karma Michigan

#

add 16

lofty siren
#

Yeah 248 + 16 + 6

pale karma
#

Uff that’s right at 270

proud bison
#

they say that almost all votes left to count in Nevada are mail-in, so I think Biden pretty much won

lofty siren
#

Biden is making a statement now

pale karma
#

Where to watch lol

proud bison
lofty siren
#

Yeah

pale karma
#

Okay

lofty siren
#

I’ve been watching this cnn live feed since 7pm last night

#

Sans sleeping time

#

Hope it’s worth it

proud bison
#

you didn't sleep?

#

I at least went to sleep lmao

lofty siren
#

No I slept from 2 to 9

proud bison
#

oh

#

same

#

lol

lofty siren
#

Actually 3 to 9

proud bison
#

yeah

lofty siren
#

I despaired after trump’s speech last night

#

So decided to sleep

proud bison
#

I watched Trump shitshow before sleep

#

I needed sleeping pills to fall asleep lmao

lofty siren
#

I now get the misery of late night talk show writers

#

Who has to watch cable news as their job

proud bison
#

imagine those people in CNN

#

who need to keep talking

#

all the time

lofty siren
#

Imagine John King

#

How tf

proud bison
#

even if there are no updates lol

lofty siren
#

Is he still up there

proud bison
#

the worst is keep talking when there are no updates

#

you just need to bullshit

lofty siren
#

Yeah ik

#

And for John king it’s a solo show

#

He just needs to find new ways to say

#

“We haven’t counted Philadelphia yet”

proud bison
#

Trump leads only by 5.5% in Pennsylvania now, lmfao

#

in the last 20% of votes that were counted he lost like 11%

#

and there are still 15% of votes left

lofty siren
#

Shiiit

#

Trump must be panicking

proud bison
#

he is

#

did you see his face

#

when he was lying at 3am

pale karma
#

I still think Pennsylvania is going to Trump tbh but I could be wrong

lofty siren
#

Lmao

proud bison
#

he was so pissed and sad

lofty siren
#

He did such a sad interview on Fox News this morning

#

His voice is just like

#

Pathetic

proud bison
#

I still think Pennsylvania is going to Trump tbh but I could be wrong
@pale karma I think it's impossible to say cuz the win will be by like 5-10k votes honestly

#

or maybe a bit more

#

you know, super close

pale karma
#

Yeah

proud bison
#

but here in Philly, dems win by like 85%

#

and only like 65% of votes were counted from Philly

#

I mean you dont even need to look at the numbers

#

just look what the fuck trump campaign is doing

#

running around the whole US and suing everyone

#

thats not what a winner does

#

Trump bullshitting on Twitter got so crazy that majority of his posts are blocked by Twitter because of disinformation

#

and under those that are not

#

people are saying shit like "I'm not a Trump supporter anymore" lol

#

Biden is speaking

lofty siren
#

What

#

Did Biden just half assedly declare victory

proud bison
#

yeah

#

he won almost for sure

#

it's just a matter of time

lofty siren
#

CNN called it for Michigan

proud bison
#

FUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUCK YEAAAH

#

!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1

#

We got this!!!!!!

#

Nevada, Pennsylvania, or Georgia

#

and we are done!!!!

#

🥳

lofty siren
#

Bro I’m so excited

#

Thank god

#

This is the reality

proud bison
#

THANK GOD

#

This is really happening!!!!

#

We are rescued holy shit

lofty siren
#

Legit

#

We were so close

#

But we made it

proud bison
#

Unless some miracle happens, we really did!

lofty siren
#

Now imagine if democrats also take over the senate

proud bison
#

We are 6 electoral votes away from President Biden

#

I don't think they will take the senate

lofty siren
#

Lmao yeah

#

But one can hope

proud bison
#

and I don't think it would be good if they did

lofty siren
#

Really

#

Why not

proud bison
#

I think balance of power is better

lofty siren
#

Ah I see

proud bison
#

Democrats also have some really crazy ideas

#

if they controlled everything they would have almost a dictatorship power

#

they could do whatever they want

#

and it's not good

lofty siren
#

That’s true

#

But doesn’t that mean

#

Basically no major bills will be passed

proud bison
#

okay I think Georgia is out of reach, but that's fine

lofty siren
#

Did the numbers update

drowsy ingot
#

they're still counting atlanta no?

proud bison
#

Basically no major bills will be passed
@lofty siren note that not all Republicans are like Trump

#

Republicans need to stand behind Trump cuz he is their president

#

but I don't think they like him

lofty siren
#

Hmm

proud bison
#

actually I don't know anyone who supports Trump because they like him

#

they support him because he is not a democrat

#

but they don't agree with him

lofty siren
#

Poor trump

proud bison
#

so Biden may get Republicans to agree on some things

lofty siren
#

Hopefully

proud bison
#

I think country will be much less divided

lofty siren
#

I like his speech

#

It’s really a much needed message

proud bison
#

yeah, Biden is like an actual President

lofty siren
#

That trump never bothered to mention

proud bison
#

not that shitshow

stoic valley
#

Nah i know people who support trump on two bases:
“Self sacrificing businessman who left business endeavors to help the country”
“Wants to make america great and loves america”

proud bison
#

Biden would be able to talk to Republicans and find middle grounds

#

Trump is only like "ITS ALL PELOSI FAULT"

lofty siren
#

Lock her up

proud bison
#

Nah i know people who support trump on two bases:
“Self sacrificing businessman who left business endeavors to help the country”
“Wants to make america great and loves america”
@stoic valley yeah but I don't believe this is the majority of Republicans

#

also note how many Republicans supported Biden this election

#

Trump definitely radicalized many Republicans tho

#

I don't think most of those people would be chanting about locking up people and stuff before Trump

proud bison
#

exactly

#

yeah just revert it to the status quo and we are chillin

#

I didn't do any work for almost 24h because of this lol

#

I really hope we don't lose that Arizona

#

if court blocks election

#

then it's a lawless country

#

its an authoritarian country in that case

#

and really bad things will be happening

#

you won't have just riots, you will have assassination attempts everywhere

#

it depends what path Biden wins

#

cuz if he doesnt need Pennsylvania

#

then there is no chance court does something

median hare
#

Isn't The Associated Press the one that actually calls the election and all others are just projections?

proud bison
#

they are all projections I believe

#

honestly the most realistic Trump come back at this point is if he actually wins Arizona

#

everything else extremely unlikely

median hare
#

A rough month ahead

hushed hearth
#

only senate shot out there is 2 runoffs in georgia

#

depending how many votes are out there, it might be doable

lofty siren
#

Press conference in Georgia soon

proud bison
#

Biden is favored to win fuckin Georgia now on predictit lmao

#

80% chances for Pennsylvania, 84% for Arizona, 89% for Nevada

lofty siren
#

Biden is narrowing the gap in Georgia

proud bison
#

Trump is filling lawsuits in Georgia

lofty siren
#

They’re finding new vote totals in Arizona and Georgia

#

Lmao this is never ending

proud bison
#

fuck

#

I'm scared about that Arizona

#

let's hope for Pennsylvania

lofty siren
#

They’re mostly mail in I think

proud bison
#

I think it's most likely to win through Pennsylvania rn

#

They’re mostly mail in I think
@lofty siren you sure?

#

how do you know

lofty siren
#

Why would they “find” new votes made on Election Day

proud bison
#

I have no idea how in person voting works lol

lofty siren
#

Lol I think it’s like they began counting mail in votes

#

And before they finish counting all mail in votes, they don’t know how many there are

#

They only have approximations

proud bison
#

in Arizona

#

they already processed 2.4m mail in

#

unfortunately

#

or like 2.2m

#

sth like that

#

not sure how many mail in there are in total

#

Biden is only 0.9% from winning Georgia

#

come on man

#

and it looks like the votes that are left to be counted are in a county where biden has 80% lead LMAO

lofty siren
#

Imagine if Biden ends up w 300 electoral votes

#

Then trump won’t be able to say shit anymore

hidden jewel
#

I'm liking the Pennsylvania trend

lofty siren
#

CNN is seriously running out of things to say lmao

proud bison
#

Yeah Pennsylvania is not a matter of winning by 5% of sth, it's more like winning by 5k

#

it's more "luck"

hidden jewel
#

bruh the one poor dude who's been flipping to various parts of the map on CNN since like 9pm yesterday

#

mans needs a break

lofty siren
#

Yeah I was talking about him

proud bison
#

CNN is seriously running out of things to say lmao
@lofty siren this is amazing those people have been there for like over 24h lmao

lofty siren
#

He was pointing on that map longer than I have been awake for the past 24 hrs

#

Ik

#

And that dude doesn’t even have a chair

hidden jewel
#

"We still have votes coming from __ county"

#

"We need to count all the votes"

#

"There's math to be done"

#

his fav phrases

lofty siren
#

“And that’s why it’s so exciting”

proud bison
#

only 3.3% short in Pennsylvania

#

and only 72% votes counted in Philly

#

there is no way trump is winning

hidden jewel
#

i'd honestly much rather not have this election rest on PA

#

with the whole supreme court thing

lofty siren
#

So hopefully we get arizona

#

Or Georgia

proud bison
#

okay but you dont know what will happen with Arizona

#

if we lose arizona

#

then Pennsylvania is almost only way

hidden jewel
#

true Arizona is always sketchy

proud bison
#

unless Georgia but is even more unlikely

lofty siren
#

New Arizona update in one hour

hidden jewel
#

Nevada is also looking kinda scary

proud bison
#

nevada is chillin

#

dont worry about nevada

hidden jewel
#

but then again there's a lot of Dem areas

#

to vote

#

yeah

proud bison
#

nevada should be the one called, not arizona

#

nevada left votes are almost only mail-in

lofty siren
#

Georgia has 5 percent of votes to catch up 1 percent of difference COME ON

proud bison
#

0.9%

#

on AP

hidden jewel
#

Georgia is tough

lofty siren
#

Ok good

proud bison
#

and Fox News says

#

that the only county where votes are yet to come in Georgia

#

is a county where biden leads 80%

lofty siren
#

Bro are u watching two feeds at the same time

hidden jewel
#

I've been flipping Fox and CNN

proud bison
#

I'm tracking AP map, Fox Map, and CNN News

lofty siren
#

Lmao

hidden jewel
#

everytime i get bored of John on the CNN map

lofty siren
#

John is trying

proud bison
#

I also track predictit

hidden jewel
#

honestly John is a goat

#

(I think that's his name)

lofty siren
#

Yeah his name is John king what a legend

hidden jewel
#

I was actually really surprised that Fox was the one that called Arizona early

proud bison
#

and trump twitter is funny lmao

lofty siren
#

149k in Georgia yet to be counted

#

Diff between the two is 50k

#

U can’t even see his tweets cause it’s all freaking flagged

hidden jewel
#

If Biden flips GA

#

Trump is done

proud bison
#

I love watching Pennsylvania, it's steadily shrinking all the time but Philly is still not counted lmao

#

then they will count Philly

#

and it will be like a fuckin nuke

lofty siren
#

Lmao

hidden jewel
#

honestly if Florida hadn't thrown the early game

#

we could have known so much sooner

proud bison
#

people who were hoping for florida just had false hopes

hidden jewel
#

fair enough

proud bison
#

polls skew dem

#

heavily

hidden jewel
#

when's the WI recount?

proud bison
#

do you really care about that

#

trump lost by 20k votes there

#

if they recount

#

Trump wins/loses 1k votes at the most

hidden jewel
#

eh

#

im just curious

#

to see

proud bison
#

I don't think

#

they can even legally file for recount

#

until like 10 days after election

hidden jewel
#

oh really

#

interesting

proud bison
#

thats what they were saying on cnn

lofty siren
#

CNN just kept showing the same numbers as a tight race alert

proud bison
#

lmao philly is going to nuke this election

#

in 1 minute

#

it will add couple % of support for biden

lofty siren
#

When is it coming in

proud bison
#

not sure

lofty siren
#

I remember last night penn stopped counting at around 1?

proud bison
#

I think so

lofty siren
#

5 hrs left

proud bison
#

even tho they were saying they would be counting whole night

#

also note

#

that in Pennsylvania

#

votes can keep coming

#

till friday

lofty siren
#

I bet John king wants to count the votes himself right now

proud bison
#

lmaoo

hidden jewel
#

john king loves his math

lofty siren
#

Still more interesting than what he’s doing rn

hidden jewel
#

honestly john king probably just wants some fucking sleep

lofty siren
#

I think he’s on drug or sth lmao

hidden jewel
#

and a chair

lofty siren
#

Cause he’s just way too calm

proud bison
#

its even more exhausting for him than it looks

#

cuz he must watch his words

#

to not claim someone won or something

lofty siren
#

Yeah true

#

I don’t think he even slipped once

proud bison
#

yup lol

lofty siren
#

Trump says can’t lose Georgia

proud bison
#

honestly if trump lost georgia but won penn, nevada, arizona, he would still win lmao, its extremely unlikely tho

lofty siren
#

Yeah that’s negligible prob lol

proud bison
#

wait

#

if trump lost georgia

#

there would be a tie lmfao

#

but then trump wins

#

with a tie

lofty siren
#

georgia is now 0.8!!!

#

Oh fuck but 98% reporting

#

John King TELL ME WHAT IT MEANS

proud bison
#

still that one county in georgia

#

only 94% votes from there

#

andbiden wins 80% there

lofty siren
#

Ughhh

proud bison
#

georgia may be determined by like 0.1%

#

not sure if for biden or for trump

#

2.8% short in Pennsylvania

lofty siren
#

Lmao

proud bison
#

still not from Philly

#

it's going to be legendary

#

Tuesday night, Biden -17% in PA, Wednesdnay/Thrusday, Biden +1% lmao

lofty siren
#

What happened in penn today is unbelievable

proud bison
#

in my country, they said that Trump won in PEnnsylvania lmfao

#

and people are texting me like what happened

lofty siren
#

Wait

proud bison
#

I'm like nothing happened, we chillin

lofty siren
#

Damian for Georgia what’s the percentage of counted votes?

#

AP says 98, cnn says 95

#

Both say 0.8 difference

proud bison
#

no idea honestly

#

Fox says 98%

#

and it specifies which county

#

but CNN

#

may estimate more

#

cuz they dont know how many votes are yet to come

#

they are estimates

lofty siren
#

F

proud bison
#

so when should we expect to get final result
@cunning umbra it really depends

#

may be tonight, may be tomorrow morning, may be next week

#

cuz if Biden wins Georgia, or definitely wins Arizona tonight, it's pretty much over, we only wait for NEvada next morning

lofty siren
#

large volume of Georgia votes coming now

proud bison
#

if its not clear

#

if it hinges on pennsylvania

#

it may not be clear

#

till next week

#

votes are coming here till friday

lofty siren
#

I’m actually kinda confused

#

Why doesn’t the US do it electronically

#

Like why is the entire counting process manual

proud bison
#

125k absentee ballots in Atlanta hahahahaha

#

left

#

holy shit

#

let's go Georgia

hidden jewel
#

LFG

proud bison
#

bruh imagine all those people saying that election has been hacked

#

there is no way

#

in this society

lofty siren
#

It would be so much more efficient

proud bison
#

they all will be

lofty siren
#

Lmao

proud bison
#

RUSSIA HACKED

#

NO!

#

CHINA HACKED!

lofty siren
#

John king is back

proud bison
#

yeah but there will be russian and chinese hackers

#

HOLY FUCK

#

WE ARE WINNING GEORGIA

#

THEY SAY

#

THEY ARE ALL MAIL IN BALLOTS

hidden jewel
#

another quote

#

"You might think you can't make that up, BUT..."

#

i love this man

lofty siren
#

Lmao

#

Don’t ever say you’re bored by him ever again

#

We need John king

proud bison
#

we lost

lofty siren
#

It’s 6+20+16+15 =57, trump gets precisely 270 votes

proud bison
#

there is no way we lose nv tho

#

bro

#

trump can only win

#

by winning all of them

lofty siren
#

Or by blocking vote counting

proud bison
#

but you assume that trump lost arizona

#

it's not for sure

#

we may lose arizona

#

I would say its not unlikely

#

but if we lose pennsylvania

#

its definitely over

#

if we win georgia

#

then its at least a tie

lofty siren
#

AP declared too early

#

Still many new votes coming for Arizona

proud bison
#

we should know in 20 mins

#

whats up with arizona

lofty siren
#

New dump of votes coming in in half an hour

#

90k votes is not impossible

proud bison
#

@cunning umbra so trump surely won NC, he quite likely may win GA, he almost for sure loses NV, so then all comes down to Arizona and Pennsylvania

#

if Biden wins either of them

#

its over

#

then its over

#

but we cannot be sure

#

I'd say

#

it's more likely that he wins Pennsylvania than Arizona

#

but we will see

#

I'd say he wins Arizona for 80%, and Pennsylvania 85%

#

Georgia is pretty much 50-50 rn

#

Trump win would be really a miracle at this point

#

but well, still not impossible

hidden jewel
#

rick santorum is back lmao

lofty siren
#

Wait hasn’t he been here the whole time lmao

proud bison
#

i think its more likely for trump to win by recount than the current voting situation
@cunning umbra recount?

#

recount is impossible

#

he lost by 20k in Wisconsin

#

recount could give him like 1k

#

or lose 1k

lofty siren
#

Ugh whenever they cut to this room I just zoom out

proud bison
#

recount only made sense in 2000, when George W. Bush won by 500 votes

hidden jewel
#

Wait hasn’t he been here the whole time lmao
@lofty siren oh really i havent been paying attention

lofty siren
#

Lol me neither

proud bison
#

now on predictit, Biden has 70% of chances to win Georgia LMAO

#

I thought CNN was dreaming last night when they were saying Biden can win Georgia

lofty siren
#

My friend was just like “that’s just cnn” last night

proud bison
#

CNN is literally more skeptical for Biden than Fox lmao

lofty siren
#

I think Fox wants to paint Biden as winning

#

So they can make the narrative of voting fraud

proud bison
#

I mean that was Trump's plan B from the very beginning

#

already in July/August

#

when he started saying that mail vote is fraud

#

he just wanted Republicans to vote in person

#

so he may challenge democrat votes in court

#

he already knew he was losing

lofty siren
#

Yeah but Fox News is probably switching to this route

proud bison
#

I've been saying this already in August

#

I think Fox is with Trump in general

#

but there are people

#

who are for Biden

#

just like in Republican party

lofty siren
#

I only know Chris Wallace

proud bison
#

according to polls, like 10% of Republicans were going for Biden

#

that's huge

#

I mean voters registered as Republicans

#

you need to take into account that some Democrats register as Republican to fuck with their primaries lmao

lofty siren
#

Lmao what

proud bison
#

yeah, my girlfriend's father does it lmao

lofty siren
#

That’s wild

proud bison
#

GA+NV, AZ+NV, GA+AZ, or just PA, Biden has so many paths to victory holy shit

#

and all of them are more likely than any Trump's path lmao

hidden jewel
#

5 mins to AZ

#

new tallies

#

lets go

proud bison
#

"Today, the Trump Administration officially left the Paris Climate Agreement. And in exactly 77 days, a Biden Administration will rejoin it" ahh yes, Trump destroying the country for Biden has started lmao

lofty siren
#

The wildest is yet to come

proud bison
#

it's like you have a child and you see he is breaking shit, and you just let him do it so he is happy knowing that you are going to fix it after he leaves

#

come on cnn

#

come on man

lofty siren
#

Gotta fill that airtime

#

Can’t reveal things too fast

hidden jewel
#

come on arizona

#

i just wanna see those new numbers

proud bison
#

arizona probably doesnt have them yet lmao

#

and they are trying to figure out what to do

lofty siren
#

Smh they’re doing the key race alerts again

proud bison
#

I made like 100$ on stock market today after everyone knew Biden wins lmao

lofty siren
#

I5s coming

Man look at John king doing math on the screen

hidden jewel

AZ is gonna be tight

#

Oh good

proud bison
#

all votes from the election day are counted in AZ

hidden jewel

#

AZ could hold then

lofty siren

nah my man John just wants his numbers

lofty siren

John: “they haven’t slept that much”

hidden jewel

"That's good cheer, we like that"

#

i love this man

proud bison
#

lol if you look at AZ for Biden its literally the same as PA for Trump

#

the same lead

#

the same amount of votes counted

#

the only difference is that we know that the votes that are coming from PA are going to be nukes lmao

hidden jewel
#

ah my man really declared victory at 2:30am this morning

#

proud bison
#

yeah he is a lunatic

#

Biden 3% from winning PA

I5s gonna be midnight for Georgia

proud bison

0.7% Georgia 🙏

median hare

Trump tweets are almost all flagged 🤣

hidden jewel
#

im just waiting for penn to explode

proud bison
#

Finally, Pennsylvania under 3%

#

2.9% difference

#

Philly will nuke it

#

and Montgomery etc

#

I looked at the map

#

Trump's counties left are only some small counties

#

30% of vote in Philly left, the biggest county, where Biden has 80% of votes

#

Georgia 0.6%!!!!

livid glacier
#

pog

proud bison
#

Penn 2.7%

#

so heated lol

lofty siren
#

0.6% and still 5 percent of votes left

#

Damn

hidden jewel
#

poggersss

proud bison
#

Yeah I think GEorgia became more realistic than AZ

#

sill PA most realistic

lofty siren
#

Is there any update in North Carolina

proud bison
#

they should have called NC for Trump

#

biden could literally get that 2.7% from Philly alone

#

Holy shit Biden won Michigan by 135k

livid glacier
#

biden just needs 2 out of remaining 4

#

hopefully he just holds on to az and nv honestly

#

cuz i feel like if he flips a predom. red state there's gonna be outrage

#

i.e. ga

proud bison
#

AZ is red state

#

I think AZ is the least likely at this point out of those 4

livid glacier
#

rn its red?

proud bison
#

no

#

its just always

livid glacier
#

only last elec right

#

wasnt it blue with obama

#

nvm i cap

proud bison
#

I don't think it was blue for 24 years

livid glacier
#

yeah since 96

#

thats like clinton

proud bison
#

ye

#

the actual successful clinton lol

lofty siren
#

Lmao trump supporters are fucking things up

proud bison
#

what the fuck is wrong with those people

#

they are literally counting those votes

#

without which trump wont stand a chance

lofty siren
#

They’re chanting outside the vote counting of;ice

#

Like they’re gonna riot once Biden wins

#

But to what degree who knows

proud bison
#

hahahah 765k votes left to count in Penn and there is only 160k difference

#

Trump is a toast

lofty siren
#

TrumpJr2024 anyone

proud bison
#

Like they’re gonna riot once Biden wins
@lofty siren I don't think they are gonna riots, these are people who respect property

#

but they will be doing shit on the streets for sure

lofty siren
#

Oh yeah

#

It’s fine shooting black ppl & plotting to kidnap governors, just as long as we don’t loot stores

#

Honestly these people are just so unbelievable

crimson nimbus
#

only 28.5k difference in GA monka

proud bison
#

holy shit

I think Biden may win Penn even by some comfortable margin

lofty siren
#

Come on Georgia dump those votes

lofty siren
#

Wait why are they closing the voting office

proud bison
#

wdym

lofty siren
#

CNN just reported

#

Like I think they’re kicking out all reporters rn

proud bison
#

what does it mean

lofty siren
#

Idk

proud bison
#

why

lofty siren
#

Too many trump supporters outside

proud bison
#

omg

lofty siren
#

They’re trying to form an exit plan so the reporters can leave

#

It’s on cnn right now

#

Lmao

#

They see lots of people carrying guns

proud bison
#

do they stop counting

lofty siren
#

Idk

#

Oh I think they’re gonna continue counting

hidden jewel
#

they contiunuing the count

#

reporters are being kicked from the building

proud bison
#

okay thats good

#

I missed on that

#

cuz I got cockblocked by ads

hidden jewel
#

ngl new CNN dude is slick with it on the screen

proud bison
#

I'm wondering what Fox and AP are gonna do in the morning when NV goes to Biden but AZ is still not sure but they already called AZ lmao

#

are they gonna call Biden a president

hidden jewel
#

lol

#

prob not

proud bison
#

cuz they called AZ prematurely

hidden jewel
#

AZ is gonna be mad close in the morning i think

proud bison
#

or are they gonna call back AZ lol

hidden jewel
#

they'll have to retract it

proud bison
#

lol

hidden jewel
#

honestly they should just retract it now

#

its way too close to call

proud bison
#

yeah AZ is least likely among AZ PA GA imho

hidden jewel
#

alright we're gonna know GA tonight

proud bison
#

what time

hidden jewel
#

they said they're gonna count until its done tonight

#

they were aiming for 3 i think

#

around 100k votes left to count

proud bison
#

omg 3

#

what about az

#

are they coming in 8 mins?

lofty siren
#

There might be delays

#

Cause they need to use press releases

proud bison
#

damn

lofty siren
#

They can’t just tell the reporters anymore

proud bison
#

I hope Biden don't fall like 3k short in Georgia lol

#

also if it hinges on Georgia

#

there will be recounts for sure

#

that may actually work out

#

Georgia 0.5%!!

livid glacier
#

not many votes left in ga tho

#

but heard theres a huge skew in fulton yet to come

#

or so twitter claims

lofty siren
#

Lmao

proud bison
#

yes Biden will pick up around 13k votes there

#

He still needs like 10-15k

#

not impossible

livid glacier
#

he's 26k behind

proud bison
#

if its super close

livid glacier
#

do uk how many votes are outstanding in dekalb?

proud bison
#

then recount may skew it

#

idk

#

but we are chillin

#

we are winnin pennsylvania

livid glacier
#

fingers crossed

#

PA looks good tho

proud bison
#

765k mail in ballots left

#

only 165k difference

livid glacier
#

30 pct of philly still left

proud bison
#

there is no way trump wins pennsylvania with this shit

livid glacier
#

yeah PA would be ggwp

proud bison
#

if we actually win PA

livid glacier
#

would be nice, no contest

proud bison
#

it's game over

#

273 electoral votes

#
  • Nevada 279
#

and if we get AZ, GA, we only strenghten

hidden jewel
#

alright i finished my stats HW

lapis wharf
#

At this point I hope it’s not 270 exactly cause lengthy legal stuff will happen if there is no cushion

hidden jewel
#

gonna cook some food and settle down with Netflix and vote counts on the side

proud bison
#

it doesny matter if its 270 or 280 as long as it hinges on one state

#

its the same

livid glacier
#

i don't think legal will do much tbh

#

trump is just throwing a tantrum at this point

proud bison
#

we may get 279 thanks to pennsylvania

#

or 270 thanks to arizona

#

but this 270 would actually be better

#

because arizona is impossible to attack legally

#

and they are trying to steal pennsylvania in court

hidden jewel
#

nevada gonna be the dude that never does the group work but still gets the grade

livid glacier
#

PA officials have made it super clear that every vote gotta be counted

#

so hopefully nothing blocked there

lapis wharf
#

The meme that Nevada has become is so funny

proud bison
#

honestly if its really true that 765k mail in votes are left

#

in PA

#

then we won this election

#

mail in in PA has 80% for Biden

#

that's why last night Trump was winning in PA by 16% and now by 2.6%, because at first they didnt count mail-in

proud bison
#

yes

#

but also no

#

he said he will work with congress

#

to do that

#

and congress wont do that

#

honestly just revert trump policies killing h1b

#

and we are chilling

#

0.4% Georgia!!!

somber oracle
#

I'm seeing 0.5 but I'll take 0.4 lmao (NYT)

proud bison
#

AP is 0.4

proud bison
#
