John King is back presenting on CNN doing the map thing. He's brilliant at his job.

I reckon John King went home last night after his shift and just screamed into his pillow before coming back in now.

Also - is there a very small chance Trump keeps his lead in PA and somehow nabs AZ or NV??

Nevada has a lot of Clark county votes to some in, which Las Vegas is a part of. Leans heavy democrat so Biden should be over the line there. PA defo could stay Trump. Probably will. But Biden doesn't need it.

I'm following it along here and it's as convoluted as fuck, whoever wins. So far it looks like no-one has a clue anyway.

Edit: I will say it looks extremely fishy that all the newly counted ballots are for Biden. Looks, not saying is, but certainly gives Trump ammo for calling fix.

It only gives him ammo in a superficial sense really, I don't think there's anything fishy about it.

This is not a normal election, with the pandemic. It makes sense that people would be opting for the postal vote more than usual, to avoid crowds. Unfortunately it seems the pandemic in general has become a partisan issue among voters, one which seems to skew more towards Trump voters being less likely to be as concerned with precautions.

That's how it appears to me anyway. I spose that's still ammo, but it wouldn't be the first election that things have changed as the counts progressed, not by a long shot. It's close as fuck at the moment though. Main thing is it's not done yet.

Yeah that's true. Was only reminded a few minutes ago about GW Bush's win after the mail-in count and the controversy it generated at the time. It does seem that the main battle lines have been drawn along the covid response for better or worse for each candidate. Trump has surely lost some older supporters for his plans to open up, but I'd be surprised if Biden hadn't lost a good few young and carefree voters for his plans to continue the shutdowns. Biden is a real Hobson's choice for democrat voters though. He will only get in because Trump is so reviled. Very poor choice for US president, although the same argument can be levelled at Trump I guess and I also doubt he would be complaining if the late counts were going his way.

Have to say personally if it was this country, I wouldn't trust posting in my vote in a million years. Not that the evidence of shenanigans is actually there but the potential for it would put me off big time.

How long do we all reckon before this is done and dusted?

Lol. I don't think the pillow got off that lightly.

Some states could be counting till Friday but I'd say by the end of today you'll have enough counted to say who'll win.

"Just let these people do their job and count the votes... We should be skeptical of what any campaign says right now."
Okay, this King fella has my vote. Nice one man, will follow on CNN so.

"They are finding Biden votes all over the place — in Pennsylvania, Wisconsin, and Michigan. So bad for our Country!"

One of the latest Trump tweets.

Ya it's a big conspiracy that mail in votes being counted now favour Biden.

I can't be the only person here that for a split second picture our own top drummer man Johnny King presenting the map thing on CNN. That would be incredible television.

[Cailleach]

So mail votes, which were always likely to favour  Biden, are part of a conspiracy to deny Donald re- election. I'm sure the republican leaning  supreme court will uncover this grand conspiracy and vindicate Donald.

Trumps supporters remind me of those remoaners who could not accept the Brexit vote

If Biden gets in no way is Trump gonna go without a big fuss about it.

This I would pay to watch.

Be pretty funny if he still won but it is looking increasingly unlikely. How much is the republican-led senate likely to hamper Biden's policies going forward? Will it be the case that he wins but can get fuck all done?

I guess it makes sense that the mail votes would favour Biden but the landslide of them is something to behold. Trump's twitter page is also something to behold. I wonder also what significance there is in Trump getting Coney-Barrett into the supreme court when he did. I don't give a lot of time reading too deep into the machinations of US politics but some of ye lads here might be able to shed some light on some of that.

It's entertaining at least.
