Populism is in many ways more symbolic than it is a matter of specific policies, which explains how she can vote for two candidates on polar opposites of the spectrum. It’s just what she sees as the protest vote. The fatal error IMO is seeing Trump as a protest vote in 2020. Plus she’s prone to George Soros-type conspiracy theories, which tends to go with voting for Trump. 1 Link to post Share on other sites

Ace Nova 3,737 Posted November 6, 2020 Share Posted November 6, 2020 3 hours ago, downzy said: Biden is up by 12k in PA. There's still 4 percent of the vote left outstanding. That works out to 240,00 votes. If Biden wins 75-80 percent (which is in line with the current trend), that should give him a cushion of 140k-160k votes. We'll see if my math holds up. Maybe...and if that's the case, the election is over and Biden will be the next president of the U.S. (Other than the fact that he may not even need PA) there's a zero percent chance Trump can get 150k votes thrown out and/or voided through lawsuits.

Biden made up over a 500k vote deficit in Pa over the course of a day or so. The vast majority of Democrats, especially in populated areas, mailed in their votes or voted early. So in states where they weren't allowed to count them beforehand, the 'late count" of those votes will obviously lean heavily Democratic. This isn't rocket science.

arnold layne 1,540 Posted November 6, 2020 Share Posted November 6, 2020 Put it this way. I am a gambling degenerate. The books I used closed last night with Biden - 1200. They are no longer taking bets. The only reason why the election has not been called is because Trump hasn't conceded and most likely will never concede. 2 1 Link to post Share on other sites

I know 95 percent of what Trump says is utter bullshit and he’s all bark and no bite, but I really want this to be true. I really want him to stick to his guns on this one. And i really want to have it captured live on national television: 2 4 Link to post Share on other sites

Not sure if it's fair they wait for some and not others when they've heavily pushed postal voting as the preferred method of voting. Regardless, there's no real winner here. Trump is a moron and needs to be removed, Biden was at one point competent (not a good politician, but coherent) but he is no longer. I really don't think Trump and Bidens policies are really 'that' different though and that's the issue. Nobody should care about the personality of the candidate! it's all about are they going to do things that make living standards better! For those that think that's the case... Biden will not be doing that, if he follows the course his political career has taken for the past 40yrs, it'll be big business first, the people last. Biden is change in that he's a different president, but he is not the change or bringer of unification that some people are suggesting. Trump didn't create this division, this was a problem in America long before he took office, he just used it as his advantage... and 68million votes later it shows that the country is and will remain in big trouble for a long, long time to come! with or without him! I'm glad Trump will be less of a presence in our lives, it was an embarrassment he got in the first time! he shouldn't have even come close to getting it this time! Don't feel too bad! It's no better in Ireland 9or anywhere else really), we have idiots running the show too! and a media that purposefully protects or destroys depending on who the owner of the channel / newspaper decides. 3rd option please!! 2 Link to post Share on other sites
