    Biden is not winning Michigan. At best he will win Nevada and Wisconsin- not enough.

    I am sorry to break this news- Biden is 2-0 down with 5 minutes to go awqay from home. Sure he may pull it out of the bag but highly unlikely.

    The areas left to count in Michigan are heavily Democratic and mostly mail-in votes which have been skewing more for Democrats too.

    I'm not saying Biden will win it, I'm just saying it could be extremely close.

    Even if Biden gets Nevada and Wisconsin that brings him to 254.

    While it is still close in the other States, Biden is still behind. He needs a fcuking miracle to turn those States around. That ain't happening IMO.

    He'd need a miracle to make up 2.2% in Georgia? That seems very achievable no?

    Regardless of if Biden manages to pull through this election has proven once and for all that Americans in general are idiots. How anyone let alone almost 50% of 140m odd people could think that Trump is fit to hold any office is unfathomable.


    It's not like they were given much of a choice this time or during the last Election in 2016

    Have you seen those videos of Biden?

    America is damned if they do and damned if they don't

    Yeah, not quite real Americans like Donald J. Trump (who's family arrived to the US after many of those 'African' Americans). That prefix will be there just so they always know they don't quite belong.

    The State of Nevada says it won't have further updates to the count until Thursday, and even then ballots postmarked by yesterday will still be accepted in the state as late as November 10th.

    The majority of the the votes left to be counted in Georgia are in Atlanta and Savannah - both urban areas that heavily lean to democrats.

    This would only come as a shock to the crazies who believe that a vote for Biden is a vote for socialism.

    More on topic, I think the first big conclusion we can take from this election is that neither candidate is capable of uniting the country, so whoever ends up winning this, the U.S.A is in for another four years of bitter division and recrimination.

    What's this uniting the country thing about?

    People have different views and political persuasions . No politician can unite a country.

    Gap is narrowing massively in Michigan and Georgia could swing his way too.


    It won't narrow enough in Michigan and Georgia 'could' swing is fantasy stuff. Sorry nothing personal.

    You have to laugh at the Cubans in Miami Dade who thought Biden would bring Castro style socialism to the US :D

    Their count will resume operation in about 3-4 hours.

    Pennsylvania will be collecting mailed ballots until Friday.

    Get your money on it then. You're 2 nil up and you can back yourself at 6/4 now. Screenpic your massive PP wager when you're done

    This is gonna seriously drag on isn't it!

    Bernie Sanders brother says Biden isn't a progressive and is on the centre right of the Democrats.

    Im sure thats why he was a more popular choice than Bernie (who I think would have been a better president imo). Joe more likely to get centre voters, while Bernie could scare off some potential voters.


  • Registered Users Posts: 18,308 ✭✭✭✭namloc1980


    Trump win by 286 is my prediction , NC, MI , GA ,

    I think Trump loses one of Michigan or Georgia. His lead is eroding in both as the urban votes are counted.


  • Registered Users Posts: 32,956 ✭✭✭✭Omackeral


    Rte have Bidens cousins from Ballina on. One lady said a Biden win would be great for ballina.

    Stop the lights.

    They've been driving around the town beeping horns with champagne at the ready.

    Gombeens. Remember they rolled out Obama's 26th cousin in Offaly every other day before as well and had them drinking pints of stout.


  • Registered Users Posts: 27,340 ✭✭✭✭super_furry


    So state of play seems to be that it's mail-in ballots that haven't been counted and they're going to favour Biden because Democrats were more concerned about Covid-19 and avoiding big groups and standing in lines.

    Blacks ffs, it's 2020 dude.

    Yes and they are still black. What's your point?

    Oh I am fully up to date alright. I want to see Trump out as much as anyone but at the same time I am not a straw clutching fantasist.

    This explains why some people didn't bother switching their vote to Biden. No difference to Trump when it comes to economics.

    Other stuff, like "not being presidential" doesn't influence many voters.

    Actually it's POC.
    Who was it that took them away from Africa.
    Who has stopped POC from progressing enough to be able to afford to return to Africa?
    And one last thing, what part of Africa should they return too? You know, since these POC don't know where their roots are, their language was forbidden to be spoken, their hair was shaved (which held patterns of the tribes and locations they came from)

    Its not just as easy as going back to Africa. Ffs.

    And if you don't know this stuff and are spouting nonsense like yours, you are ignorantly Racist.
    If you do know this stuff and spouting that nonsense you are shockingly Racist.

    It will happen in one of them at least. Trump was miles ahead in Wisconsin a few hours ago and now Biden is winning there.

    Covid will pass but you still need a job to feed your children and pay the mortgage

    Very true, Republican state legislature candidate David Andahl may have died from COVID aged 55, but after he passed he still won the ballot and got the job. Much more important than still being alive, I'm sure his family are delighted.
