True. And they routinely vote against their interests every cycle. Then blame the "dumbocrats."Somewhat true, but also keep in mind that these areas are often a lot poorer, and with worse services and higher unemployment. It's easy to understand why they feel left behind by the rest of America. That makes them easy prey for authoritarian populists like Trump.
I think the state law there requires a recount or to triple check it due to how close it is.Any idea why major news outlets are not calling Wisconsin yet?
it’s1-2 at half timeBeen asleep, is Biden still winning?
Certainly interesting, can’t quite get my head around it. Has changing demographics played a role?It’s just staggering. The PhD’s written on this will make very important reading to understand the human mind.
The curse of living in the South. Living in Birmingham meant that 90% of every flight we took went BHM -> ATL -> Anywhere elseIf Georgia goes for Biden then I'll maybe forgive all the hellish stupid flights I've ever had to take from Atlanta Airport where for some reason I had to go from New Orleans > Atlanta > West Palm Beach > Atlanta > London
Big cities are bad and colleges look down on them. They tend to think education is bad and science is negotiable.Rural America has a massive inferiority complex. They're stuck in their ways which have been taught to them by parents, grandparents, peers, and clergy.
And MI and PA if he loses it.Apparently Trump wanta a recount of Wisconsin?
Yeah, I have always found that weird. From what I know, e.g. hispanic people in the US, especially recent migrants, are relatively religious. As such, they'll find more common ground with the Reps - as long as they can live with the racist undertones. And then of course there are many shades within that group, and within everybody else.The biggest mistake that people make time and again is assume that because X person is X race or from X cultural background they will automatically react in the same way as everyone else "like them". So when Trump puts kids in cages or calls BLM protestors criminals some people automatically expect Latinos or African Americans to all attend a massive group meeting where they all agree to hate Trump.
Calling minorities rapists, dirty, from ****hole countries, thugs, and sons of bitches works. More politicians should try that.Tweet

You're in Delta country. Everything flows through Atlanta to go anywhere if you're in the South.The curse of living in the South. Living in Birmingham meant that 90% of every flight we took went BHM -> ATL -> Anywhere else
My Mum lived in Alabama for a while in Alabaster so yeah I know the joys of flying from BirminghamThe curse of living in the South. Living in Birmingham meant that 90% of every flight we took went BHM -> ATL -> Anywhere else
Totally. It's also ignoring that a person isn't defined by their race. Someone might look at something Trump's done that targets specific groups, and that person is probably going to dislike Trump for it. But it's not their biggest priority. Maybe they're better off now than they were before? Maybe they've fallen for his divisive tactics? We don't know.Absolutely. I mean that itself is also a kind of stereotyping.
I think they have to jump through some hoops to verify or something. Their election manager or whatever she is called was on CNN a bit earlier. All normal they say.Any idea why major news outlets are not calling Wisconsin yet?
I don’t understand at all how any non white first generation migrant on USA could vote Trump.We can't say yet whether they got it so wrong. This counting process is just super chaotic.
It's not so much of a conundrum. It probably shows the growing integration of minorities into the wider society. It is just normal that some of them fall for the same propaganda as many white folks.
No?What's the deal with Arizona? It's swung the way of Trump now all of a sudden?
SORRY ITS THE PHONEI don’t understand at all how any non white first generation migrant on USA could vote Trump.
Hearing that Cubans got scared Trump ads that claimed that Biden would turn USA into a commie state is just nuts.

Nothings changed?What's the deal with Arizona? It's swung the way of Trump now all of a sudden?
Rural votes?What's the deal with Arizona? It's swung the way of Trump now all of a sudden?
Now that it looks like Biden will win, I'm more sympathetic to this generous view.Somewhat true, but also keep in mind that these areas are often a lot poorer, and with worse services and higher unemployment. It's easy to understand why they feel left behind by the rest of America. That makes them easy prey for authoritarian populists like Trump.

The prism through which they view their own lives must be something to consistently have this disconnect.True. And they routinely vote against their interests every cycle. Then blame the "dumbocrats."
