Any chance this gets called today? I've got 3 days of work to catch up with where I didn't do anything but refresh this thread.
100k votes or so left to count in Pennsylvania I believe.

It feels like this won't get called today in Europe, maybe early hours of the morning for Europe or American east coast evening time.

I don't think down ballot Dems did particularly poorly, its just that down ballot Rs were the direct beneficiaries of the Trump cult turning out in massive numbers to reelect him, and in the process voting for whoever else was running on the R side.
Just a shame that the Biden campaign and DNC did a poor job in replicating that on their side.

Trump will probably wreck the white house before he leaves it. Biden will probably find an unflushed orange turd in every toilet, and empty big mac boxes in all his drawers.

Her parents divorced when she was 7 and she and her sister lived with their now single mom. Read her Bio, I would not say she grew up privileged.
Meh. I disagree. But my foundations are in soft earth.

I see a well educated and globally relevant biologist and economist divorcing and it doesn’t scream struggle.

With that said, I’m a bit biased as I think she’s a ghoul.

Everything I’ve learned about her I learned in the last hour so me being judgey isn’t productive. I see denial of heritage as being a knock on her but I expect it’s waaaay more complex.

I can’t see her heading the next Democratic ticket though.

Republican lawyer on CNN saying absolutely no proof of vote fraud.
It's such a stupid boogeyman for the GOP (and was before Trump). There are elections all the time in the US, local candidates all care about the races they often spend their personal money trying to win, so they watch pretty close. If there were widespread fraud we'd have cases all the time because of the level of scrutiny. But to the contrary barely any is ever found.

That's because Dems are fairly fractured between progressives and ordinary Dems, while R's generally vote R irrespective of who is on the ballot.

His overall share amongst Latino voters did increase in general though, I don't see that being solely down to Cubans in Miami.
That was more tongue and cheek but I think people should realize Latinos are not a monolithic group in the US. For instance, in states from California to Texas along the US-Mexico border Latinos absolutely despise Trump. Nevada and Arizona used to be solidly red. Texas, where I'm from, is rapidly moving towards becoming a toss-up state. The rhetoric against illegal immigrants was one of the dumbest political calculations I've seen in a while.

Haha I was thinking that we as Utd fans are really missing a great trolling moment/moment of exposure to bombard Trump tweets with GLAZERS OUT replies.

Bet we could bait him into jumping onside without having a clue what it means :lol:

I'm just picturing the cute moment between Biden and Obama in a few months.

"Hello, Mister President!"

"Well hello to you too. Miiiisssssttteeerrr President!!"

*Both laugh*

"Fraud. Get out of my house."

"Did you hear that noise, Mr President?"

*Trump falls through the ceiling*
Never change birdman. Never change.
