    Yup, 3rd party from last time seems to be going D. If that continues it looks good for Biden.

    If Ameri-Cubans could vote for a free market fascist they would. No one is right wing/anti-state enough for them!

    Between the catholic church influence and their historical grievances with communism and Castro they are one of the more rabid right wing groups in the states

    The CNN coverage is very map heavy. As a GIS analyst, this is the place to be clearly. :)

    NPAs crucial here. I have read they would lean more towards Biden than Trump

    That R advantage will include many Seniors- registered Rs who will have voted Biden.

    Even the voter analysis exit polls on Fox favouring key Biden issues.

    63% saying the country going in the wrong direction

    72% say move to a government funded healthcare plan

    72% say illegal immigrants should have pathway to citizenship

    61% believe abortion should be legal.

    Of course they are but it is fun to see how much and then have the Trump side to say CNN is the worst


  • Registered Users Posts: 431 ✭✭Vital Transformation


    Trump has 2/3 of vote so far in Indiana, around 70% in Kentucky. 2 and 3% of the count completed in those states.

    Alex Jones put a video out saying he'd be doing his own show tonight, though I wouldn't be surprised if he popped in for a bit. He was never intended to be a guest, he invited himself.

    Alex Jones is a fake. He dramatizes conspiracy theories to gather support and financial backing.

    He's the American answer to David Icke -- another man who has made an enormous wealth through the spread of conspiracy theories.

    Why people cannot see through the likes of Jones and Icke is beyond me. They are charlatans of the highest order.

    Biden team apparently very confident about what they are seeing in NC, PA, WI, AZ and Texas which is surely a bit of a piss take :D still down on Florida.

    I guess you'd expect nothing less from either campaign other than to big up the chances at the minute so as not to discourage potential votes still to be cast across the country.

    as opposed to what exactly? listening to either cnn or fox **** lies about how great their respective absolutely shít candidates are?


    i'd guess you're just giving a knee-jerk reaction as well as kyle kulinski is one of the best and most respected political commentators on youtube

    Wolf Blitzer getting a horn on CNN about Biden leading by 20k votes with 8% of the vote in in Kentucky.

    It's an awful pity there isn't such detailed coverage available elsewhere on a network without that level of baseless hype and nonsense.

    The early votes being counted first so a big, big caveat with the initial count returns.

    Although it does show early voters favour Biden.

    I know it's VERY early voting and I know Trump will win Kentucky as expected, but still lovely to see Biden leading all the same :)

    I'll be watching for Kyle Kulinski, have been following him on YouTube for years.

    Joe is Joe, he will divide people naturally but he did make at least an effort to fact check and hold Alex to providing some proof of his lunatic spiel.

    To be fair if you have an idiot and reality denier like Alex Jones on your podcast you need someone like Kyle Kulinski to balance it out.

    either I'm very tired or the lads in the CNN studio are on cocaine/speed....... wolF Blitz might have done an E tab judging from his reaction to Kentucky

    He's hardly doing that, he knows it's a red state and isn't pretending to say otherwise.

    That's the fun though. The Alex Jones episode was hilarious.

    I think it's a case of giving him enough rope to hang himself. Anyone who believes his **** has more problems than just believing Alex Jones.
