Biden to Win -Just

Why has this descended in to left vs right?

It's the US election, so far right vs slightly right. They've never had a socialist government, probably why half the country can't afford healthcare.

Lots of posters who used to be Trump supporters, but who have recently pretended not to be, are getting worried.

Biden ahead by 38,000 in Michigan with only 54,000 left to count now apparently. Looks like they will probably call it for Biden fairly soon?

They can't without Nevada declaring for Biden. Without Pennsylvania he needs Nevada's 6 electors and, I believe, they've stopped counting until tomorrow.

I'm not sure if they've stopped counting or if they've stopped updating the results.

I think the idea was to take the pressure off the counters so that they have more time to get the results in accurately, given how close it is that's not unreasonable.

They've stopped counting.

Because some posters only absorb political activity in a left v right context.
 
Nevada wants to make sure all postal votes are in before they call - Nevada laws mean that anything with a postal stamp on or before Election Day can still be counted. Should be a safe Biden state though.

So, could be back to the drawing board in Wisconsin then. My source is Sky News. Just sat here watching the drama!

It looks like they’re possibly on with the recount.... Only a matter of time I would say ... fingers crossed
 
Trump is the worst kind of egomaniac. He wants to stop counting votes when he is ahead and threatens to challenge a result if it does not go his way. They will need a coup to get him out of the White House and he does not care that any refusal to accept defeat will trigger possible civil unrest.
 
Just watched a press conference from Philadelphia and the team Trump. Gonna be taking legal action as dead people have voted, and the Trump camp weren't near enough to observe all ballots being counted. Getting quite amusing now.

There is a livestream of the Philadelphia counting. Not sure how you can be more transparent than that.

Gonna go to supreme court about it apparently. Team Trump call Pennsylvania Trump Country. Think they may be wrong!

They can't call a recount until the result is officially declared which takes a week or two. Past recounts in Wisconsin have moved votes by a few hundered votes at most so very little chance of being overturned.

Does that mean that they might yet accept the result and bow out gracefully?
 
Nevada is now the key to presedency. 6 sets could swing it either way.

And its almost split down the middle.

Can you imagine Trump bowing out gracefully? 😀

So long as nobody dies it will be very entertaining watching his temper tantrum.

Anyway: let’s not get ahead of ourselves. Biden hasn’t been declared the winner yet. And Trump is still in the White House.

But Trump is pissing PA !!
 
It is possible that this will end up not being all that close. Of the states still outstanding, Trump is assessed by Nate Silver as being favourite in one (North Carolina), in a dead heat in another (Georgia), and probably second favourite in all the others.

There's still a way to go, and the lawyers are involved now. But the tide seems to be with Biden. We might know tomorrow.

Actually, his votes have been counted first because most of them were cast yesterday. It will be close, but most of the pundits think Biden is a slight favourite there because most of the uncounted vote is his.

And it was the GOP in PA who mandated that postal votes could only be counted after in person voting.

I assume you mean "suspicion". 😀

It would be ironic if it did. There are two major reasons why we are seeing a lot of this sort of thing. One is COVID, which persuaded a lot of Democrats to opt for what they saw as the safer, healthier voting option. And the second is that in some states, the rules on when counting can start are quite restrictive. They include the Republican-run state of Pennsylvania.
