b"The fight to count every vote continues in Florida and Georgia. In Georgia, the Stacey Abrams campaign announced several thousand newly-tabulated votes were cast for Abrams in her uphill battle for Governor against Republican vote suppressor Brian Kemp. In California, even more GOP House seats to Democrats, bringing Dems to a 33-seat pickup in U.S. House contests this year -- so far. As votes from the November 6th midterms continue to be tallied, that could potentially result in a "Blue Wave" as large as 39 new seats in Congress. In Florida, dozens of lawsuits have been filed in state and federal courts over the scramble in 67 counties to complete an unprecedented three statewide machine "recounts" in the U.S. Senate, Governor and Agriculture Commissioner races (and several other state legislative and local races) by the ridiculously short state-mandated deadline on Thursday. Democratic-leaning Palm Beach County has already said that it will be physically impossible to complete all of the machine rescans there in time, thanks to their aging computer tabulation system, including machines that overheated this week, requiring ballots to be re-rescanned. Sen. Bill Nelson has asked a federal court to extend the deadlines and force a review of tens of thousands of absentee vote-by-mail ballots rejected due to claims of signature mismatches or other unspecified "voter-caused error".\\xa0 If counties don't meet the deadlines, their incomplete tallies from last weekend \\u2013 before many mail-in ballots arrived -- would be certified instead.
