US Presidential Election 2020 Thread II - Judgement Day(s)

extra gravy

It's funny thinking back to the Trumpists here that were claiming Trump had done so much for black people and how their support for him had increased so much. Clearly not enough obviously as it looks like their votes in Philly, Pittsburgh, Detroit, Milwaukee and Atlanta will play a huge part in winning Biden the presidency.

interlocked

IF, if they took Alaska, they only need one seat in Georgia in the run offs, for a tie in the Senate and Harris as VP would have the casting vote. That would completely change the tenor of a Biden presidency.

That's one to keep a very close eye on

I can't imagine PA is far from being projected, Biden should take the lead in the next couple of hours.
Earlier in the day it was considered comfortable for Biden. He has since exceeded expectations and it's looking like he'll win big. Iirc MI was projected for Biden not long after he took the lead there.

Once Biden goes a single vote ahead it will be called. Fox have already said they will call the race at that point.

Yep same here. I'm exhausted after 3 nights of this. Sick of looking at the colours red and blue. Those annoying "calm" adverts on CNN. But it's the best (US) election ever!

This is sure to rub salt in.. I'm only seeing it now.

As a side note, there is still 4.5m votes left to be counted in California, over 1m votes to be New York and about 1m votes New Jersey.

Biden is currently winning the popular vote by 2.6% and will likely go north of 3.0% maybe up as far as 4.0%

A 3-day nail biter!

I've watched a lot of sport, and I'm not sure I've watched anything as tense in my life.

Maybe this is the future of sport... instead of having teams actually play football, we set out the 11 on paper, and then all the millions of fans vote on the winner with constant round the clock coverage;
"Cork County historically has been a ManUtd stronghold, but in recent years has begun to flip Liverpool with the younger generation"

Watching Trump's lead in Pennsylvania slowly and inevitably disappear is like New Year's Eve - except that unlike New Year's Eve, it's actually enjoyable.

Definitely going to blast out a bit of Auld Lang Syne on the oul' YouTube when Biden overtakes him.

I want to give that CNN guy in Arizona a hug

He's suffering with the numbers lol

Biden lead shrunk again, AZ is gonna be very tight it seems.

Somebody needs to dub the chant "Biden PA" over the chorus of YMCA

Exclamation Marc

Arizona

Maricopa County
Trump 42276
Biden 31700

Still a Biden lead of 46257

Honestly this is Karma for all the bile and crap he's spewed out for the last 4 years. Sure he COULD run again in 2024 but honestly I think this is the start of a long slow motion train wreck where all the crap he's caused is going to bite him royally in the ass that he'll be ruined by next year. It's exactly what happens when someone takes an important role and runs it into the ground for self gratification. Not generally one for schadenfreude but like Brexit this is going to be the kind of comeuppance that will be VERY enjoyable and satifying.

Ah, let Trump have it.

PA & GA are key now.

Believe this was to be expected though with that county. There's still plenty of lead left it's not like Georgia and that.

AZ do mail in voting and Trump is going well in that but I thought according to Trump that's a scam.....
