Think it's going to be 51 49 to GOP

Yep looking at that data Biden has Georgia

No. The pollsters really got it wrong. Just a few days GOP senators launched a stinging attack on Trump claiming he had hurt some of their chances. They must be feeling pretty shy right now. Trump really seems to be carrying them.

It does, that's what swung back to Biden.

Could be. I'm just wondering if the GOP belongs to Trump now, whether or not he wins. What happens to Repubs uncomfortable with him? Do they just suck it up or just slide across to the Dems? And on the other side, blue collar Dems, how long will they remain Dems? Trump seems to have done much better with minorities this time around.

“ What a great tale of a man thinking of voting for a man who thinks only about himself, who suddenly decides to vote so he can go back to thinking only about himself. 'Merica. God bless us.”

Michigan has tightened significantly.
Trump only 64k up. The biggest county Wayne county only 63% counted. Biden has 30%+ margin.

Some Michigan vote is released and what do you know, Trump's lead down to only 65k votes. Still lots of votes to come in. They're only counting mail in ballots now in Michigan.

Biden must be a favourite for MI now. That, along with WI, GA, AZ and NV should be enough. I wouldn't rule out PA either.

It's not really. It's just it has "sunshine" laws which means we get all the "Flordia Man" headlines.

As have Georgia and NC. Its still anyones.

Why is everyone so invested in this?

Wayne County (Detroit) just reported roughly 150K ballots, and nearly 140K were for Biden.

Just this update cut Trump's lead in Michigan by nearly two thirds.

It's on a knife edge, plus Trump is a pretty good villain. It's entertaining.

Definitely, I saw Trump was 1/7 to win it on paddypower last night at one point, now Biden is at 1/2

538 say they are expecting another 300k ballots from this county.

Cos many think Trump is a dangerous plum, some love "owning the libs" and some are racist fash boys and girls.

Either way it affects all of us, I'd be just as invested if Russia had real elections.

It will determine world politics for generations. The US under Trump have decided to be friends with the dictators in Russia, Turkey and even China (until the pandemic). Any ground given will not be easily won back. Dictators around the world are flocking to do deals with him. We need the US to champion democracy and equality under the law.

Plus he's suppporting industries over environment. Then there's the racial/religious tensions he's fanning.

This is a very significant election worldwide.

Crikey, if that holds up in Penn, they are also still in play (I doubt it though)
