Detournement Posted November 4, 2020 Share Posted November 4, 2020 6 minutes ago, G51 said: I'm sure that the people behind Biden's campaign will see just as much opportunity in a UK trade deal as Trumps would. Americans don't really care about Brexit. It's extremely difficult to see Biden holding out of a US-UK deal that would give him some positive headlines and allow his donors to make more money just because of it. It's Pouring A Terrible Pint of Guinness lobby vs Military Industrial Complex on the Ireland vs UK issue. Only one winner. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gaz Posted November 4, 2020 Share Posted November 4, 2020 As much as I'd love Biden to win comfortably, it'd be absolute SCENES if it was 270 - 268 and it was won by that Nebraska vote. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think it's 0.7%, but there's nowhere left for Republicans to realistically make that up. Worth saying, this will be the 4th time in 6 elections that Wisconsin has been decided by less than 1%, and last time Trump won it by 0.23%. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, for much the same reason as the other ones on many heavily Democratic mail-ins being those outstanding, but think it is the least likely to flip. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bully Wee Villa Posted November 4, 2020 Share Posted November 4, 2020 2 minutes ago, Day of the Lords said: Is Trump in trouble in North Carolina? Showing him on 50.1% with 95% counted. 1.4% ahead with 5% left. So it isn't 50.1-49.9 (the difference is the Libertarian third candidate). It seems possible for Biden but would expect Trump to hold on. The country featuring the largest city, Charlotte, also has 95% of its votes in so not much left to gain there for Biden. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Bob Mahelp Posted November 4, 2020 Share Posted November 4, 2020 Very difficult now for Trump to win either Michigan or Wisconsin. The vast majority of the votes to be counted will be for Biden. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I heard this morning that the reason Nebraska has that system in place where they can have split seats was that they felt unrepresented by either party so had the split seating as they knew it could sway elections....might well come through. I really don't understand* why the EC seats aren't just split by the proportion of votes cast for each party *...when i say i don't understand, i do but it seems mental that they can't/ won't change it for a more democratic/ representative system 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
