Pennsylvania is seen as the tipping point... but if Biden takes Florida it's (pretty much) over. I'd rather it went that way, because we'll have the Florida results on the night.

Always keen to hear your informed analyses.

In which states are you expecting Trump to pick up the extra 125 electoral college votes he needs to get to a margin of +320?

In fact I'll be generous and assume that the 2 faithless electors who didn't cast their vote for him last time fall into line this time round... So just the 123 required.

Look forward to your response.

Stop falling for it.

 

[BirkenheadBlue]

Stop falling for it.

Yeah... "falling for it"... because I REALLY think he's going to be able to name the States Trump's going to pick up to reach +320 lol

Wow, what a complicated way to decide a new president.
Why not try, after preliminaries, a two way national vote, on its own day.
The winner simply the candidate with the most votes.
Like France does.

We're working on it. There's a not insignificant portion of the country that benefits by this stupid crap who push for it constantly.

No, but you are reacting to someone who is clear on the wind up. Just ignore his drivel.

Need something to distract from working. Come on now...

Ummm, because if we did something crazy like that, then my vote in Tennessee would matter just as much as a vote from someone in Wisconsin. Get out of here with that common sense.

Im genuinely shocked anyone is doing mail in ballots this year. Especially with one party literally saying the quiet part out loud how they want to invalidate those votes because they probably go against that party.

They could lose a lot of overseas military as well

An 1884 map ; are these nicknames still apposite ? Obviously not much happened in Utah lol

Major east coast bias in this map

Amazing that. Is Election Day just likely to be relatively quiet, or is turnout going to be through the roof? Do we know how many voted on Election Day last time?

When you look at this site, which compares the early vote to the 2016 total votes cast, it shows that it's not just Texas close to if not exceeding their 2016 tally. Plenty of other states in there where over 80% of the 2016 total has already voted, a few of them battleground states as well, which if we go off the idea that higher turnout favours Biden, then it's looking good for him.
