    I’d be very happy just to see Oklahoma actually wait until the polls close to declare the republican presidential win…

    I swear every year, they decide it so early I am convinced the electors don’t even care what the vote counts are. There is no fucking way backwards as fuck Oklahoma figured out a way to accurately track and count votes faster than any other state - and voter turnout would need to be so high they know it can’t possibly turn around in the last 2 hours of the polls still being open? Yea right.

      It’s because of the small population. They can tell that there is no way for the other person to take over by a certain time if they have a certain percentage that have already voted.

      For example: If you have 100 people voting and 70 people have turned theirs in with 3 of those going to the other side, there is no way the side with 3 votes can win.
