IheartIheartTesla Posted November 4, 2020 Share Posted November 4, 2020 Dont think any more votes will be forthcoming from GA anytime soon, but I am extremely interested in how it pans out. I am feeling so much better about Michigan now, and that leaves PA that should (eventually) come through. From now on I think it will depend on how the supreme court reacts.

Fez Posted November 4, 2020 Share Posted November 4, 2020 If Biden does win, and Democrats can only get to 49 senate seats (which even that isn't guaranteed yet, ugh), I wonder if they see if Romney wants to become senate majority leader? Him having veto power over the entire Democratic agenda would suck, but its miles better than the alternative. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah I'm just so depressed and pissed off right now I dismissed the possibility of even Warnock winning the runoff. Just don't see it happening, but obviously a lot can change in two months who knows. I do think Gideon still has a shot. Don't know why the fuck it's taking so long for a small state like Maine to count so much of their vote. 16 minutes ago, Ser Scot A Ellison said: 6% are all late arriving ballots? Yes.

IheartIheartTesla Posted November 4, 2020 Share Posted November 4, 2020 49 isnt that bad if Susan Collins can be persuaded to reach across the aisle (and Murkowski too). I'll let myself out now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IheartIheartTesla Posted November 4, 2020 Share Posted November 4, 2020 Also, if Biden has won Maine, how is Collins so far ahead of Gideon (+13 Biden versus +6 Collins). It boggles the mind there is so much of a split between the 2. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mladen Posted November 4, 2020 Share Posted November 4, 2020 So, MI is swinging... 90% of votes in. Biden is only 12k short of lead. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigFatCoward Posted November 4, 2020 Share Posted November 4, 2020 BBC is reporting Wisconsin as 20000 Biden lead with 99% reported, surely that makes it a done deal? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It boggles the mind there is so much of a split between the 2. She won with 55% of the vote in 1996 (Clinton won Maine with 51%) and 61% in 2008 (Obama won with 58%). It really shouldn't be too surprising. New England's ticket-splitters somehow transcend polarization. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It boggles the mind there is so much of a split between the 2. Biden ran ahead of quite a few Democratic Senate candidates. Looking beneath the hood, this was actually a pretty good night for Congressional Republicans - it's just those Republican voters weren't entirely on board with Trump.

Chaircat Meow Posted November 4, 2020 Share Posted November 4, 2020 If Trump keeps the lead in all states he currently has a lead in but not called (MI, NC, GA and PA) he has won. If he loses just one of them he has lost. So he has very likely lost as the mail-votes are doing demo and MI looks like it show a dem lead soon..

Huge number of mail in votes haven't been counted yet. https://www.nytimes.com/2020/11/04/upshot/biden-pennsylvania-election-ballots.html#click=https://t.co/BIBGIVja4R Its the truest "red mirage" out there. Maybe Biden comes up short, but it looks likely that he can claw out a win. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
