    Michigan should be known later today,

    absentee ballots massively in favour of Biden - nearly 5/1

    edit

    absentee ballots massively in favour of Biden - nearly 5/1 in PA

    That would make it very very close I guess. Think Hillary got 80% of the absentee votes in 2016.

    Clark county completely out of step with the rest of Nevada, are they counting the early votes first....still a good few yet to count.

    What do you mean "out of step"??

    And it's irrelevant.

    thats the mad thing with the US election. you can win with only 23% of the popular vote, and also irrelevant but pretty crazy!

    It's kinda funny that Trump is going to lose this election the same way he won the last one.

    By being hated.

    I don't think Trump had that much support in 2016, but people despised Hilary so Dems didn't turn up to vote for her and Republicans turned up to beat her.

    This time, Trump had more support, but his obnoxiousness has mobilised the Democrat vote to bring him down.

    For me silver lining is, at least now the media will be more honest about the likes of Antifa - the whole "Enemy of our enemy is our ally" will no longer apply when Biden is POTUS - a small silver lining ...

    It might reign in the throwing about the word "racist" everywhere too ...

    Time to start booking the holidays in Connemara lads :D




    Feck Connemara. What's wrong with Clare? I know of a little place down there that might be coming to the market soon in a firesale in order to pay back called-in debts and legal bills. A grand little golf course.


    Accepting bids on here for the place. Comes with a great CCTV monitoring system. Installed by the Russians so you know it's good.

    Not important in itself but

    Says a lot about a country that the person who received the most amount of votes in the history of voting mightn’t getting elected.

    Would be some victory for Trump election staff to get elected twice without the popular vote going his way.

    No, it just shows how incredibly unpopular Trump is, outside of rural areas, of course.

    Don't like anything about him but nearly 50% of American voters have voted for him in two elections so hardly unpopular. Shows how divided the US is.

    Lot of trump supporters here called a victory and went to bed last night. Wonder will they show up today?


    I'm here anyway. Went to bed at 5am looking like it was a clear POTUS victory.
    Still holding out for a PA/MI/NC/GA victory for Trump to gain reelection.

    Would ~70 million people vote for you?

    If Biden pulls it off after Trump declared victory it'll go down in history as a massive moment.

    The US has been divided since inception. This is no surprise. The surprise is that the utter state of the Democrats, and yet they have managed to take an election from an incumbent GOP president who has massive successes in the last 4 years.

    he is merely the symptom, not the disease.

    I mean this page : Wiki has 164 entries! 164!!!

    These things dont matter to them.

    That county has the vast majority of the population of the state. So what if the people are voting a different way from how a few sand dunes voted? Elections should be based on how people vote, not deserts or corn fields or mountains.

    Clark County is literally Las Vegas and surrounding suburbs, population 2.5M.
    The rest of Nevada is a few rural settlements, population in total of about 600K.
    It' be a surprise if two such diverse groups were 'in step'.

    The declaration of victory was merely getting the first shot in in a potentially long drawn out battle. It was laying the groundwork for a claim of impropriety. A call out to supporters.



    It was an indication that that might be the route they will go down rather than a simple clean transition. It wasn't about an incorrect projection

    Why? Trump was always going to do that even if her performed like Walter Mondale or Barry Goldwater?

    It'll go down as one of countless moments where Trump has talked absolute s**t :)

    I love the way Trump supporters always come in and say "no what he actually meant was......" and proceed to put their own spin on what they "think" Trump meant.

    Assuming Nev (but Nev is still tight) & Wis in the bag it looks like it is down to Mich & PA but more likely Mich.

    I think Georgia & NC are out of Biden's reach.

    It never ceases to amaze me how so many people don't understand that this is what a lot of America is like lol.
