Some worrying stats coming out of some of the Florida counties for Biden in terms of vote reversals from 2016.

It's Miami is doing better than Hilary did everywhere else

Cheers, makes sense in a way, I suppose.

 

It's quite staggering, I heard one describe it on NPR radio recently. Went something like this.

"We have seen it all before with Castro, only the elites do well while everybody else gets shafted"

While right in front of their eyes Trump dishes out tax breaks to billionaires and Biden promises to tax billionaires more. It makes me wonder whose arse is your head stuck up? Your own or each others.

Getting exciting now some of the results are coming in.

 

Tennessee with 75% Trump

 

😁


Absolutely meaningless (although Trump will win Tennessee)

That's what I was meaning.  Laughable as a democracy.

Almost time for bed anybody confident that Biden will win ?

 

I am. He is not winning the rust belt and he has to,

  I'm in for the long haul and took tomorrow off.

 

I'm confident of a Biden win in the swing states Trump took last time.

The President will now state his election prediction, ahead of time.

 

310 to 228 for Biden. That's without Texas & Florida.

 

This is the way.

Biden doing well in North Carolina

 

Polls closed 45 minutes late.  I presume NC counted absentee ballots early if they've already got to 60% counted.

It would be hilarious if Biden took Texas after 40 solid red years. Unfortunately large scale civil disorder would probably follow.

I unintentionally had a 30 minute power nap about half 11 and am now raring to go with a bottle of gin. 

 Good timing.

 

I'm on beers just now and will switch to gin about 3am.

Kentucky are some straight up dumb *****.


But so are the people who poured money in there thinking they could unseat McConnell. Money that could have been better spent elsewhere.

Ah, strong gains for Biden in Charlotte and Raleigh - and both were already strong Democrat counties in 2016.  Looks good for him in NC.

Trump pulling away in Georgia now


Again, meaningless this early. And apparently a burst water pipe will delay counts in Atlanta :facepalm:

Hopefully Biden wins N. Carolina and Arizona. If he loses in those two states as well as Georgia and Florida, it'll be looking a bit ropey.

How are this entire family tolerated? Last week Trumps son Don Jr. was raving on Fox about the "fake news" obsessing over the numbers of new cases when it hit a record 100,000 new cases in a single day.

Why are they going on about the cases he asks? Why aren't they talking about the deaths? He then claimed they're not talking about the deaths because "they're almost nothing"u

A thousand people died the very day he said it.

DEATHS IN LAST 7 DAYS
5,783

We need this piece of shit to go tell those 5,783 families that your loss was "nothing"

 

I despise his lala land offspring as much, if not more, than their producer.

Are there any outright, known reasons why Trump is getting the Cuban vote in Florida?

 

No, but all we heard in the primary is how it needed to be Biden in the General because if it was Bernie, the Cuban vote in Florida would be spooked by socialism chat.

 

Worked out well.

Ohio goes blue then Trump is done per CNN. 

And if he just gets North Carolina then it's very very hard for him

I started on CNN but now switching between Sky and BBC. The Americans are a bit much for hours on end. No offence Justin, you seem sound.

Trump will be trashing the Oval office in an epic meltdown if that happens.
