    Having not a single flip so far has really made this kinda boring

    The market shifted slightly back to:

    Biden: 3.65
    Trump: 1.38


    I think that's just to stop me going to bed though.

    A rare bit of hope for Biden:

    https://twitter.com/Nate_Cohn/status/1323825353052344329

    75% of votes counted in that one. 210k votes ahead with about 800k left to count.

    Trump briefly went 1/5 on Paddy Power, now 4/11.

    AZ looks good for Biden. If he gets that and Wisconsin he'll be one state short.

    Honestly, I give up! Whole planet is a ***** mess: Coronavirus, Trump, Brexit, random terrorist attacks on the continent, probably a massive recession in its way ... grim decade and it will now only get worse with all sorts of conspiracy theory garbage driving public policy in the US for the foreseeable future.

    Any time I mentioned that Biden was just getting the ticket because it was “his turn” and he was too old, a load of American Dems would rip me apart on forums.

    Anyway, here’s to another 4 years of chaos and probably a hard Brexit in January.

    This could be decided in the courts yet

    At this time I think this is the clearest pathway for Trump with the early numbers.

    Aye he needs Michigan as well, he could let Pennsylvania go then and eek a win with some of the the split electoral college states.

    Dems won't take the senate

    NC will likely go for Tillis, Dems will be doing well to win Arizona or Maine at this stage

    Not sure about Tillis, but I'd be fairly sure that Mark Kelly will win in Arizona and Susan Collins will lose her seat in Maine.

    Would Arizona, Wisconsin and Michigan win it for Biden?

    Might be tempted to back him now with AZ news

    My main worry with Trump in for the next 4 years would be US companies pulling out of Ireland...we need them now more than ever..

    I'm too afraid to start having hope again. It's dramatic stuff all the same.

    Can you try to explain it? All I've been doing is paying attention for the last 4 years, and I still have no clue how Trump is doing so well.

    Trump, Johnson, Bolsonaro...
    Racism
    Inequality
    Homophobia
    Ignorance

    Even today in the Dail, someone saying to Varadker, "That Parade"

    Look around you! If the world was the place you thought it was, those three wouldn't be in power.
    Racism, inequality, ignorance, homophobia wouldn't be rampant in Ireland, never mind the rest of the world

    How can people not see this? I know of people who give out about Trump but, will then make a racist or homophobic remark. It's not that difficult to see

    The celebs, they'll say anything about Trump as it appeals to people and gets them air time and clicks and retweets...Think they're telling the truth?

    Do you really think musicians give a **** if Trump uses a song of theirs at a rally? Of course they don't but, because it looks good with the media, they'll kick up a fuss

    Assuming he wins NE02 Biden would win 270-268.

    I’d imagine that would lead to riots.

    I’m guessing you do not live in the US. That would be a good starting point for your lack of understanding.

    Seems Philly's mail ballot count is a bit weird in that it stopped completely, so the Pennsylvania count has been for the last hour and half entirely just votes today

    https://twitter.com/MaxMMarin/status/1323792802233405440

    They stopped counting after just clearing 75,000 of them out of 350k they've confirmed they've received prior to election day + more received today or tomorrow.

    I think we will be alright, but we need innovation in our country and not relying on the yanks all the time...
