Proabably paranoid but after an attempt at impeachment and hounding smear campaigns I can't say I wouldn't feel like he did haha. As it stands now would much rather be in Trump's position than Biden's. Not sure this thing gets done tomorrow either. Has to be the most important election in my lifetime for sure.


Welcome back mate nice to see you around, here if you ever need a chat. Nice to see some of our better posters coming back.

Thanks George , good to be back.

Election will go down to the wire. Trump barely hanging onto North Carolina & Georgia. But he can still take Wisconsin & even Nevada. Flip of the coin. What a ride!

Wisconson called for Biden, Michigen has turned blue, Pennsylvania down from 620k Trump lead to 450k trump lead after 5% of Postal votes counted, 20% to go, if that rate keeps up Biden will win Pennsylvania, too close. Georgia too close, NC too close.

If Nevada and Michigan stay blue Biden has 270.
 
Pennsylvania looking more and more positive for Biden.

Hard to see how Biden loses it from here.

But then you also have Trump wanting to not count a whole bunch of legal ballots, so there is that lol. He has some galaxy brain logic going on - keep counting in Arizona and Nevada but voting should be stopped in Pennsylvania and Georgia.

This exact situation has been flagged for months.

Pandemic raging in the US.

Democratic voters are majority who are taking precautions and voted by mail to be safer, Republicans listened to Trump to vote on the day.

As the vote unfolded the Red mirage came into full effect, Virginia looked to be turning red and as the night went on went as the polls predicted.

lots of too close to call in the rust belt leaning red.

Trump comes out and says they won and the Dems are trying to "steal" the election.

Tries to stop counting on mail in's being counted.

From what i have read on the election, this was the scenario since July.

Not if he flips AZ which he is on track to win.

Really? IF they've already called it, how would it flip? Even the AP has called it
 
Really nervous about Nevada, if that goes blue it's all over. But if Trump wins it, then he just needs to hold on to the remaining 50/50 leads he has.

I am expecting that Biden wins Nevada but Trump holds on to leads in Pennsylvania, North Carolina and Georgia (this one is surprisingly still wide open) which ends us with a 270-268 margin with Lincoln Nebraska of all ****ing places essentially casting the deciding vote.

I was extremely confident coming into the election that Biden was going to win on 290, if all the currently undecided states stay at the current margin I would have just tipped Pennsylvania wrong.

Election day votes have essentially all been counted. If Trump isn't in the lead at the moment, he will not gain it from here, this rule applies to every state remaining (with the possible exception of Nevada).

Trumps path to victory can only lie through winning Nevada and his election day leads outlasting Biden making ground in the mail-ins.

Essentially this is the 4th quarter in the Bulldogs qualifying final, Biden's doggies have all the momentum but Trump's saints don't have to hold on for much longer.

.... I immediately apologise for associating that individual with our club even in a hypothetical analogy.

Nevada is mail in heavily favouring dems.

He was referring to Arizona though - how can Arizona flip if it's already been called. Never mind what Fox said, the AP has called it and they pride themselves on "only declaring races when they are won"

Yep, I had a look through some of my chat logs with people I've been discussing the election with.

For over three months I've been trying to prepare people for the fact that Trump would appear to be winning on election night, he would declare victory knowing it's too early to tell, would send his militias to obstruct and intimidate the election officials (luckily doesn't seem to have occured) and then take any close states, likely to be Pennsylvania or Michigan to the Supreme Court.

This has been the slowest moving car accident of all time.

I am honestly impressed at just how well the Trump campaign knew the votes were going to play out, they even knew which states to take to the state supreme court ahead of time.

This isn't a socialist or republican issues, this is a world leader trying to circumvent the democratic process. The doubt that he has cast on the election process will likely last for a generation, this should be condemned by all involved.

Anybody who is still defending Trump at this point, is merely defending their own ego.

The Associated Press, Fox News, ABC, NBC etc. they all get provided the raw data. Not only the total vote tally, but also the district by district breakdown. It then comes down to the team at the organisation to make the call. If you see that Biden has a lead of 100k when there are only 50k votes left to be counted, you can declare with 100% certainty. Others declare when it is still a mathematical possibility that the result can go the other way, however using their modelling based on demographics etc. they can say that Biden is up by 100k in this state, with 200k of votes left to come. But the only uncounted disctrict is largely black and historically votes blue. Based on those demographics some news sources might be willing to declare, others might not. Most are being more cautious than usual.

Just remember that the results being "declared" by any news source is not the official ruling.

Is American politics a fascination for some or is it a genuine hobby?

All my time away from work goes into sport, but admittedly not one thing about Australian or World politics interest me.
For me it is merely fascination but election day is kind of like sport - you're watching the numbers and generally barrcking for one team so it's kind of exciting.

Or maybe I just make it exciting lol


As for who wins, couldn't care less. I've said numerous times, both candidates are awful BUT better the devil you know. So I guess you could say I'm a Trump supporter. Will I cry if he loses though? Hell, no.
 
Proabably paranoid but after an attempt at impeachment and hounding smear campaigns I can't say I wouldn't feel like he did haha.

Welcome back mate nice to see you around, here if you ever need a chat. Nice to see some of our better posters coming back.
"hounding smear campaigns"

Something about pot kettle black.
 
Well looks like we are back to the complete deadlock of the obama years. Dems winning but don't have control of the senate or a mandate to do much really.

Looks like giving more support to the economy could be a big issue and the debt ceiling will also be a big issue.

This does not look fun.

Fair play mate.

Was honestly a genuine question, I see the people that support politics, the ones that rock up to all the rallies and I wonder how you can honestly want to be that involved.

I guess it’s no different to the people who look at us funny who have zero interest in sport.

There's still hundreds of thousands of votes left to be counted in AZ. They've called other states prematurely over the last couple days too. Fox News initially called AZ but Trump is down 91,000 votes with 605,000 left to be counted.
