"News coverage scared to call Florida for Trump in fear people will tune out. Biden surely is sleeping peacefully knowing the inevitable is coming." I don’t think anything is inevitable at this stage | |||

"if biden does win arizona, which is now looking likely.... it gives him more paths to 270...... michigan, wisconsin and arizona would leave biden on 269......... then looks for nebraska and maine...... they both do their votes by congressional districts... maine 01 and nebraska 02 are both leaning biden and give him the extra 1 to get to 270 and he wouldn't then need pennsylvania! " I hate to say it but Trump is going to sneak it, either way it’s going to be close and judging by Trumps attempted tweets it’s going to be carnage | |||

S All very predictable, I predict a riot " I think what he was getting at or trying to intimate was that in individual votes he is so far ahead that if they gave all the uncounted votes to Biden then he would still have more votes. He may be right but that’s not the way it works & by that reasoning four years ago he wouldn’t have been president. Been flicking channels most of the time, my vote goes to CNN for coverage S | |||

"What I’ve gleaned from a long night (ok I crashed at three & woke at six) is this Called it the “United” anything is a farce. What needs sorting is the differing voting rules, capabilities to count & the opening & closing of both polling stations & postal ballots. Pennsylvania is v.important but it’s a disgrace that they are talking possibly FRIDAY before all votes are counted. They also reported on CNN of voting being allowed in some States after stations were supposed to be closed or after postal deadlines. It’s a farce no matter who wins.. S" It looks like its true some have stopped open after closing time. Is this a way of getting extra votes for one party or is it giving people arriving late to vote. The closing time is clear though so you decide. The bigger issue is postal votes being found on Thursday and Friday which strangely are not in on time these could have been posted 4 weeks ago so no reason for them being late if they are genuine. | |||

No they can't start counting but they can get them all in at the counting station on the day of the election or today latest. There is no real reason for them turning up at the end of the week. | |||

"I wonder why they stopped counting hmmm WISCONSIN -2016: 22,748 -2020: 104,963 (77% reporting) MICHIGAN -2016: 10,704 -2020: 289,703 (61%) PENNSYLVANIA -2016: 44,292 -2020: 696,960 (66%)" because they are "human beings" and they have been counting all day... so they called it a day and most of them are starting again tomorrow..... the reason i am semi confident is that the outstanding ballots out there seem to be mail in ballots from big cities when are democratic... which is why when the dump from milwaukee came in it flipped the wisconsin lead from Trump to biden.... it looks like the outstanding from wisconsin now is in green bay, and Kenosha... , if you think you have heard of kenosha it was where jacob blake was shot 7 times in the back by a policman, which led to far right kyle rittenhaus shoot two people dead.. yep thats kenosha! anyway.... in michigan the outstanding mail in is from detroit and the suburbs, and the big college towns such as lansing, Kalamazoo and grand rapids.... in pennsylvania it looks like the big cities mail in haven't been counted yet... so philadelphia and its surburbs....and pittsburgh and its surburbs! same with georgia.... mail in ballots outstanding from metro atlanta and its suburbs and a lot of "black" georgia (Albany, Macon, Savannah ect).... all that is likely to be heavily democratic! | |||

(actually you make not know.. but the course if this is following the path of what happened in the wisconsin governors race in the 18 midterms!... the republican was ahead and the democrat got huge gains in milwaukee to win!) in michigan... its the vote in Wayne County, which includes the city of Detroit!!! again heavily democratic!!! that brought down that lead! and before you start complaining what is about to happen in pennsylvania... the sec of state there, who oversees the election, says there is approx 1.7 million mail in ballots to process.... at the moment the mail in ballots have broken 80-20 for biden!.... if that holds that is a net 800-850k advantage for biden, remember the lead for trump at the moment is roughly 650k... | |||

"Senate looks like it stays red. Right so by how much? Will it make it difficult for Joe? It will" Its never good if there is a week government. From what I understand if its a red senate and Joe as President little will get done for a while. I really hope this doesn't end up with more job losses there and more antisocial behaviour. There is a lot of hatred though even from people over here its a concern that people will loose it and take matters into their own hands. | |||

" Even if Biden wins, Trumpism has not left the stage. These results show there is a demand for Trumps style of politics. The republicans will have to choose (if they lose the WH), do they go all in with someone like Don Jr or Tom Cotton or move back to a more conventional candidate like Nikki Halley. Even if Trump loses, other countries will be thinking it could happen again. Unfortunately he's not an aberration. | |||

"I’m not a fan of Biden I think I’ve made that clear often on here. If him becoming president calms it down in the US then that’s a good thing. This result isn’t progress nor would be the other. Looking forward to a non event four years of senate blocking. America is the loser here whatever happens. " It's a bit shocking if the best candidates out of the whole country are doddery men in their 70's. | |||

"Why would the postal vote make any difference? Surely people are just as likely to vote for either of them via post or in person. " People in urban areas are more likely to postal vote. And people from urban areas are statistically more likely to vote Democrat. Not sure why postal voting is more popular in urban areas though, maybe something to do with access to polling stations? | |||

"Why would the postal vote make any difference? Surely people are just as likely to vote for either of them via post or in person. " Because unlike us haranguing people going to vote is common & with the violence of this election people have chosen to vote by post a lot more to avoid it. By & large postal voting all over is coming it at around 80/20 in Biden’s favour. Not 50/50 as you might expect. S | |||

"Arizona, Nevada, Wisconsin look like they're going for biden, that leave him 16 short. Michigan or Georgia would do. NYT still predict Biden will take Georgia." Biden just took the lead in michigan with a shed load of mail in ballots left... he will win that one going away! .... so now the question becomes does he take georgia and pennsylvania and make the victory margin look a lot larger... | |||

Now watch trump go all out in the courts to stop the count in PA. Biden has to win all the remaining votes in GA to take it. Still too close. | |||

Looking forward to a non event four years of senate blocking. America is the loser here whatever happens. " Nicked this off my social media which explains my point better. “Biden plus a Republican senate is a dream scenario for a campaign that pledged nothing would fundamentally change. Gives them a perfect excuse to do the nothing they had planned” | |||

"@_abio can people vote across state lines? I read somewhere that lots of Californians had gone to Texas to vote..." no..... what they mean is that a lot of californians have moved to texas... hence making the state more "purple" | |||

"All these games won’t really matter. Unless a huge amount of votes get found out of nowhere it’s going to make zero difference. This will be a waiting game. Which is slightly annoying as PP won’t pay out until it’s conclusive. " the outstanding votes in georgia are roughly from metro atlanta, and there are still about a 1-1.2 million pensylvania mail in to be counted... and they are apparently breaking roughly 6-1 in bidens favour! he could still win both..... thats why they are turning screws.. they want to muddy the waters before any organisation can call biden at 270 to call him "president elect"... | |||

" They are saying a recount in Wisconsin will take two weeks... what's your take on that?" happened last time..... trump won by 23,000, hillary actually conceded but it was the green party candidate that asked for a recount! they ended throwing out about 120 votes! you are not going to get 20k turned over! | |||
