“Biden lead disappears in NV, AZ, GA, PA.”
“Church bells rang in Paris and fireworks were set off in London to celebrate Joe Biden’s presidential win.”
PolitiFact says: The church bells were not related to the U.S. presidential race. Fireworks had been going off in London for several days in celebration of the British holiday Guy Fawkes Day on Nov. 5.
“Says conservative website Judicial Watch published a story about “elite” units of the National Guard recounting official ballots that were printed with “an invisible, unbreakable code watermark and registered on a Quantum Blockchain System.”
“CNN says Dick Cheney will be advising Biden on foreign policy.”
“Election worker brags about destroying Trump ballots; rips up a ballot for DJT on video.”
“If Donald Trump “didn’t win Michigan why does the actual government site say he did?”
“Joe Biden is no longer the President-elect according to RealClearPolitics.”
PolitiFact says: Real Clear Politics never called Pennsylvania for Biden. The political news site has not projected a winner of the election.
“Overnight, election workers “found” 140,000 mail in ballots in Wisconsin; 200,000 in Michigan and 1 million in Pennsylvania. “All for Biden. None for Trump.”
PolitiFact says: This is a misinterpretation of how counting mail-in ballots works. Some of the numbers are simply wrong, while others represent exaggerated versions of misinformation that PolitiFact has debunked.
“Says CNN video shows “HAMMER / Scorecard Voter Software Fraud in Real Time”
PolitiFact says: No expert, including the head of the government anti-cyber attack agency, sees any proof that Hammer/Scorecard exists.
“Siri gave “CONFIRMATION of the Democrats' sinister plan to REMOVE Sleepy Joe immediately using the 25th Amendment and instate Kamala Harris as President!”
PolitiFact says: The Siri responses were part of a bug involving election data from Wolfram Alpha, a website that feeds into the assistant’s responses. There is no evidence that Democrats are working to invoke the 25th Amendment.
“System 'Glitch' ... In Wisconsin - Reversal of Swapped Votes Removes Lead from Joe Biden.”
PolitiFact says: The “glitch” was in a media system, not a voting system. The votes were counted following standard procedures by the Rock County Clerk’s Office and show Biden winning the county by a margin of more than 9,000 votes.
“A New York Post cover used the headline “YOU'RE FIRED" on Nov. 4 with an image of Donald Trump.”
“Mitt Romney has been asked to lead Health and Human Services in Biden administration.”

“Officials in Fairfax, Va., gave 100,000 Trump votes to Biden.”
PolitiFact says: Fairfax County in Va. mistakenly reported 100,000 more votes for Biden than existed shortly after midnight on Nov. 4. Officials noticed the error and corrected the number within 10 minutes. Votes for Trump didn't change
