There is a reason Trump wants the counting to stop. The last places to report are typically the biggest cities which skew heavily Democrat, and mail in votes, which so far appear to favour Biden by a 60% margin. This is going to the supreme court I can feel it.

The Senate maybe an interesting one if no party has an overall majority the others may have a part to play which may see Mitch out

Even if Dem's don't get Majority if they get the White House and 50 Senators they still win as VP is the tiebreaker.

Looking at the results so far it's tight but there's a good chance Biden has it as looking on this:

https://www.wsj.com/election-results-2020/

Wall Street Journal has a paths to victory in it, Biden has 18 way's Trump is down to 9. That's not good for Trump as he's fewer options and he's trailing as well in the EC votes. Biden has also got the popular vote Bagged he's passed the 50% Mark as well. Can't write off Trump though until all the vote's are counted he's a stubborn turd to flush but he needs to be if the US has any hope of getting a competent leadership when it really needs it right now.

This should clinch Nevada for the Democrats then.

Say Biden has it. He should with the postal votes. Interesting times ahead.

So where are we at the moment?

I feel it's changing by the minute and I was offline for an hour or so and feels like things have changed so much

Are there any states we're expecting to hear 100% of the results for today?

Biden only needs Wi and Michigan to swing his way and it’s done.

PA is obviously going to take a long time to fully count, and it may not even be necessary for Biden to win, but here’s where it’s at:

It's looking positive for Biden now. Biden is ahead in Nevada, they just have mail in votes to count. Michigan is looking good for Biden, Trump has a slim lead, but Biden has lots of urban votes that should swing it. Biden is ahead in Wisconsin with very little to count. If he wins them he gets to 270.

Ok, I can understand Nevada taking some time off from counting, but a whole day? They're not starting again until 9am their time on the 5th? Can't they restart sooner?

That was quite the hour!

Literally, every hour last night from 10pm Irish time onwards it has flip-flopped.

This hour has been no different.

I dread to think what we'll be like come lunchtime.

I think it’s possible we’ll hear WI called today, and maybe even GA too.

People are dreaming, CNN trying to not declare anything, lets just squeeze another few hours, another few minutes with this dream of winning. Tears in their eyes. It's done, Trump won, and got more votes than last time.

It's a disgrace that Trump has got so close but it will be sweet if Biden wins after Trump was so triumphant last night. Fingers crossed for Biden.

One of the initiatives that will have an interesting outcome in the next few years is in Virginia. If you look at the electoral map it's been gerrymandered so much it makes absolutely no sense.

"Virginia Question 1. Establish Redistricting Commission
Moves the drawing of the state's congressional and legislative districts from the state legislature to a redistricting commission composed of state legislators and citizens."

Passed by a landslide.

Do you think they should declare States that haven't counted their substantial urban areas?

Seems a bit premature.

Anyone with this level of certainty has no clue what they’re talking about.

It can go either way.

Trumps lead is enough to call it, they know he can't lose .

It Trumps lead was enough to call it, FOX news would have called it.

You're factually wrong.

It really isn't though.

He could well have won it, but eh, it isn't close enough to do so.

If you're taking that logic you may as well call AZ, WI and MI for Biden. You won't do that of course.

States dont really declare until much later, the get called based on the fact that there is no path to victory in that state for the individual who is trailing
