    Doctors say Trump has a 50-50 chance of winning, though there's only a 10 percent chance of that.

    He clearly has a 50-50 chance, he either wins or he doesn't, 50-50.

    Science.

    Trump is fine for the GOP, Cuomo is not well liked in Dem circles plus there's the rising left tide in the party, which will push gender and minorities.

    Which would lose them the WH in the US right now...

    If the Democrats want to consistently win in the Senate and indeed win the WH with the ease that they win the overall popular vote , they absolutely MUST find a way to connect with voters outside the Urban/Suburban areas.

    For all their merits , AOC et al are not that connection.

    Look at the Senate and House races - They did pretty poorly because they don't have a message to reach those voters.

    Equally - The GOP will never take back the house unless they find a way to connect with Urban voters.

    There’s a reason why Republican legislatures in these states had it so Mail-ins would be counted last.

    It can't be the same reason as Donald Trump wanted them to be counted last, because the GoP are largely staying silent while Donald Trump rants on about how the postal votes must be fraudulent because they lean so heavily Dem.

    dont get how this is exciting, from wed morning it was obvious biden had it, they really should have counted mail in first, then trump wouldnt be whingeing so much.

    It was all part of the strategy. Republicans in Pennsylvania refused to allow early counting of the mailed in ballots. They knew what they were doing....WaPo predicted this weeks ago:

    October 26th: If Pennsylvania Republicans do the right thing, they might avert an Election Day disaster

    Everything I don't like is either woke or fascist - possibly both - pick one.

    Watching CNN here, talking about Biden being a leader and a hero. Can't be just me, I'm not impressed with Biden at all. I'm not an expert but I would say his victory is more down to people wanting Trump out more than wanting Biden in.

    “Fox News is instructing its talent not to call Joe Biden the "President-elect" when the network calls the race”

    Ridiculous stuff...

    Once inaugurated Biden is going to be the most popular US President in history.

    I agree. I'm not a huge Trump fan myself but it'd be worth another four years of Trump just to see the looks on the faces of the usual suspects in CNN - Blitzer, Cuomo, Lemon and so on, and the ensuing meltdown there, especially after they were so sure Biden would win.

    Yes. Looking at the house and senate races this was more of a referendum on Trump (hence the massive turnout).

    Yeah, I think the Dems have their work cut out to find a path to enough voters. I suspect Kamala will play a big part in manage that bunch of feral cats.

    I feel like he was the beige compromise candidate that was needed to play it safe and win. Rather than appealing to one group of people massively, it's more a case of his not turning off a larger group - like Hilary Clinton did.

    The next election will be fascinating. Whether the Republicans carry on down the Trumpism route and whether Biden stands again .

    Yes, anyone instead of Trump but still, he's not very impressive.

    I know nothing about them but how anybody trusts Twitter sources is being me. Between agendas and lies it's a cesspool.
    And while we all know how it's going to go there's still enough votes for it to change so too early to call.

    Oh yes, but as I said, I think the increased vote is more down to wanting Trump out.

    I'd say it must be absolutely killing Trump with the pace of his protracted demise.

    I picture many things being flung around the White House :D

    There is a delicious ironic beauty in Mike Pence losing his job to a woman.
