It's looking a little brighter JRB than it did 90 minutes ago. Probably going to end up in the courts in at least 4 of states

No one stateside, that I'm aware, is calling it.
However it's looking like Biden by a margin of about 20.
The postal votes are having a big impact on the last few swing states.

Georgia will be a very interesting count, Atlanta area seems to be the highest remaining count which would be predominantly JRB.
Tally now stands 225/213
This is how I see it falling (https://www.270towin.com/)
JRB to take Arizona, Nevada, Wisconsin, Michigan, Maine = 47
Adolf to take North Carolina, Pennsylvania, Georgia, Alaska= 54
Totes: 271/267

Regardless, it looks like the Republicans held the senate so the Dems are f%~ked.

House of Representatives bot senate.

NYT gives Dems a 75% chance of winning the Senate. Mail in ballot should work towards Dems in a few places Like Georgia, not over yet.

Guardian has Biden on 264. Any one of 4 battlegrounds left wins it for him.

Anyway. Gonna be tight in Georgia. Biden needs ajust under 40k votes from about 100k left in districts trending +75% Dem. PA has been chuggin along at the same rate for over 12 hours now and it looks like Biden will win out 60k-80k more than Trump. MI is outside the margin for a recount at the moment and growing. Glad I called it a night at about 2am last night when twitter was freaking out.

I think Georgia is gone even if Biden were to pick up 75% of remaining Ballots (Count is at 98% now) he'll finish about 40k short. Pennsylvania on the other hand with 11% still to count Biden could finish 150k ahead with 75% of the remaining Ballots.

Ehhh - Biden is about 18k votes behind at the moment with somehting like 100k votes to be counted (last I saw - could be less) in mainly urban centres.
I like your right leg. A lovely leg for the role.
I've got nothing against your right leg.
The trouble is ... neither have you

He was picking up 93% in some districts. 3 of the districts were breaking
75-25
93-7
81-19

It was reported 18.5k deficit with 25k votes to count about an hour ago. Now it's estimated there's 70k ballots in total mostly metro Atalnat and Savannah which should favour Biden heavily

Think he'll win PA with no recount. It's heartening after all the screwing around with voting etc that so many went out to vote. I think the probable upshot of this is that the federal govt will put in place rules around counting absentee ballots so that it's done like Ohio to stop a repeat of Trumps antics.

I've been following stats on Politico, they may be slower to update than where you're reading. There was a 97,433 gap at my time of writing.

Deficit down to 14k. he'll need more than that to stay out in front when overseas(Military tend to lean R) ballots are accounted for.

PA deficit is less than 120k.

Georgia down to just over 3,000 with 18,000 in mainly dem leaning counties left and Pennsylvania continues to edge closer. Trump is gone, if he continues with the "if you count the legal votes I win big" nonsense you'd have to think at a certain point he'll be ditched by senior Republicans looks like it may be happening. It's tinpot dictator stuff.

2016 was close and in hindsight the main reason Donald won was because Hillary didn't get the vote out in the states that mattered whereas Donald did.

2020 A low poll would be in Trump's favour he will get his vote out but this time round the democratic vote will definitely be out.
In that situation there can be only one winner.
The end of an era 😂😂😂
You're gonna miss him (like a hole in the head, I know) but life is going to be a lot duller (Thank God).
I'm hoping for the Gerard Butler ending. Trump goes for the nuclear football, Butler guns him down, hands it to Biden and says "I believe this is yours Mr. President" Biden replies "Where the heck are you from with that accent, oh and call me Joe"
Roll credits
I know I'm a bit out there sometimes, but if this plays out I'm buying a lotto ticket for the first time
