Tell me about it.
I've got AZ, NV, WI & MI going for Biden, and PA, GA & NC going for Trump, making it 270-268 in Biden's favor.
True. And they routinely vote against their interests every cycle. Then blame the "dumbocrats."
The recounts will be a delaying function while they attempt to build court cases
I think the state law there requires a recount or to triple check it due to how close it is.
it’s1-2 at half time
Certainly interesting, can’t quite get my head around it. Has changing demographics played a role?
The curse of living in the South. Living in Birmingham meant that 90% of every flight we took went BHM -> ATL -> Anywhere else
Big cities are bad and colleges look down on them. They tend to think education is bad and science is negotiable.
And MI and PA if he loses it.
Anyone mention Betfair has seen a massive shift in favour of Trump last few mins. Was 4-1 now in to 5/2
Maine 2. Worst sequel ever.
Yeah, I have always found that weird. From what I know, e.g. hispanic people in the US, especially recent migrants, are relatively religious. As such, they'll find more common ground with the Reps - as long as they can live with the racist undertones. And then of course there are many shades within that group, and within everybody else.
Still, if Clinton and O'Rourke did so much better, you can wonder what went wrong for Biden. Too muted, too anti-Trump to appeal? Or are there recent developments that will have changed things for these voters?
Calling minorities rapists, dirty, from ****hole countries, thugs, and sons of bitches works. More politicians should try that.
I am guessing Trump campaign did something to attract them. Does anyone know what it is?
Back to the Atlanta metro area... while they keep posting about Fulton they need to look at DeKalb where Biden is 83% of the vote with roughly 55K votes unaccounted. Not sure if that also takes into account a portion of the 200K.
You're in Delta country. Everything flows through Atlanta to go anywhere if you're in the South.
My Mum lived in Alabama for a while in Alabaster so yeah I know the joys of flying from Birmingham
Totally. It's also ignoring that a person isn't defined by their race. Someone might look at something Trump's done that targets specific groups, and that person is probably going to dislike Trump for it. But it's not their biggest priority. Maybe they're better off now than they were before? Maybe they've fallen for his divisive tactics? We don't know.
If people are really being truthful when they say that the economy is the biggest factor in deciding their vote (and that it's not just a lie to cover up their true reason - which is because they are just some Trump nut job) then the Democrats need to get their shit together and start swaying those voters. This election is clearly not just those sycophantic Trump base voting for their guy not matter what, and nobody will ever be able to persuade them otherwise. There's definitely a load of swayable voters our there to try and persuade to vote Democrat next time around.
Over a million votes left to count in PA
I think they have to jump through some hoops to verify or something. Their election manager or whatever she is called was on CNN a bit earlier. All normal they say.

SC dissent on PA deadline extension.
SC may judge it to be incorrect but likely won't overturn it as that would mean invalidating votes, which is not fair on voters who have done nothing wrong.
In ideal situation if maps stays as it, this would not matter...but if a swing state flips, this could get ugly.

What's the deal with Arizona? It's swung the way of Trump now all of a sudden?
I don’t understand at all how any non white first generation migrant on USA could vote Trump.
Hearing that Cubans got scared Trump ads that claimed that Biden would turn USA into a commie state is just nuts.
Hearing that Cubans got scared Trump ads that claimed that Biden would turn USA into a commie state is just nuts. Majority of American Indians seduced by the Modi Trump bromance also voted Trump too.
SORRY ITS THE PHONE
You can tape what john King says on CNN on a 10 min loop and repeat it. He is offering no analyst. NONE
bring back the other guy. Miles better

Why didn't Beto run this time around?
Also, should Biden's team have considered him as a running mate? He seems quite popular. Or was he too "radical" for a centrist Dem campaign?

Nothings changed?
Rural votes?
Now that it looks like Biden will win, I'm more sympathetic to this generous view.
In the early hours of last night though I was thinking of them as a drunk driver who got behind the wheel and plowed into innocent bystanders, spent four years hearing about the damage they wreaked on those innocent people's lives, then immediately got behind the wheel shitfaced again and did the exact same thing. Sympathy for their problems becomes increasingly difficult to sustain when they show such scant empathy for others.
He's 15/8 on bet 365 he was 4/1 a hour ago . What's going on ?
Enough with the fecking betting 
IRT Arizona, does anyone know if early voting and absentee ballots were counted first or still being counted?
That could alter how the remainder plays out.

It'll be that Arizona tweet from half an hour ago
The prism through which they view their own lives must be something to consistently have this disconnect.
Sleepy joe coming back hard at in PA
News about Arizona got people putting money on him. Probably fake.
