    Good man.
    Pieta is a great charity so I was always going to donate anyway. I worked with them at a charity event (providing tech support as I work in that field) in 2017.

    Trump ahead in NC , PA and the state a poster said to me they'd eat a hat if he won , MI . Very optimistic for don. Already smashed the ‘landslide biden win’ some projected

    You understand right that ahead means nothing at the moment because the blocks of votes depending on where they came from swing heavily in one direction?

    Why did the poles get it so wrong does anyone think?

    Kickbacks from fund raising. Money likes to back winners, when the polls show your party ahead the money rolls in from donors. You will notice as they get closer to the election the results always tighten so they have cover to run the schemes again.

    Net Zero means we are paying for the destruction of our economy and society in pursuit of an unachievable and pointless policy.

    Biden has already smashed the "landslide Trump win" that Trump predicted and is still claiming.

    No. But they did vote for a racist misogynist.

    It sort of dumps the scweaming and scweaming over the court, doesn't it?

    Trump will find those justices have no loyalty to him. They have a lifetime appointment. They'll rule on the law albeit with their own interpretation but they won't pull a stroke for him. The legacy of Supreme Court justices is hugely important and none of them, including Coney Barrett, would want their legacy smeared by accusations of doing favours for Trump.

    Its safe to say Biden has turned the tide,
    Obviously he has not won anything yet but its looking likely,

    Been a lot close than anyone thought which is a bad thing , a very clear win for either side would have been the best outcome ,

    Feels weird watching CNN when I'm not hungover in a Spanish apartment on holidays because it's the only English channel on TV.

    The polls were always reliant on the Ned Flanders Democrat and the ‘Gonna git me my guns’ Republicans. There are more Ned Flanders willing to take calls and filling in tedious internet polls.

    When has anyone predicted a landslide trump win... everyone here (leaning trump) and some braver polsters all predicted a very slight win for him.. which looks to be happening

    The market has gone to record levels by some distance looking at any of the indices under his presidency to be fair and that's held up through a global pandemic. I'm no Trump fan but that's a fact.

    Haven't markets been supported by record borrowing and quantative easing though?

    But WI "only" has 10 EC votes. PA has 20 and GA has 16, and Trump is leading in both those areas. I don't know how Biden will do it if Trump takes PA and GA?

    If Biden wins Wisconsin and Michigan it looks like he won't need Pennsylvania or Georgia.

    Trump has been good for blacks. People presume black people aren't smart for some reason and can't see through the media BS about the President, they can and realize he's doing an outstanding job.

    Also the majority of blacks aren't interested in the Democrats defund the police message. They want security not anarchy

    Blacks ffs, it's 2020 dude.

    Bernie Sanders brother says Biden isn't a progressive and is on the centre right of the Democrats.

    It's close but there are 75k mail in ballots left and so far they've been skewing towards Biden dramatically. Unless the later mail ins are way redder than the earlier ones, he has it.

    Yes very little to do with Trump. Record low interest rates for the last decade and Central Banks dumping trillions into the economies of the world has fueled Stock market growth - nothing to do with Trump (or Obama for that matter).

    Even if Biden gets Nevada and Wisconsin that brings him to 254.

    While it is still close in the other States, Biden is still behind. He needs a fcuking miracle to turn those States around. That ain't happening IMO.

    OK but Trump is currently ahead in MI - saying that the NYT states that 80% of votes have been counted but the rest will favour Democrats.

    Jesus this is stressful!
