Current Affairs The 2020 United States Presidential Election

Sounds like cry arsing in advance to me. Everything is fine unless trump wins then the system is rigged.

The funny thing is that I have never even seen his Twitter before not being a twitter enthusiast.

At this point you have covered far more of his content than I ever have , read far more of his thoughts and come across more of his videos.

Probably twice with your second account as well.......

Unbiased and balanced you said.

What second account do i have?

Any idea what time we start getting some meaningful results, UK time that is? Trying to plan some sleep tonight and thinking I might get up about 4 rather than stay up

11PM UK we will start getting a somewhat clear picture

That's right. Keep an eye in Florida, North Carolina and Arizona, these three states will have most of their votes counted around that time since unlike other states they have already been counting mail in ballots and early votes, although no reporting them yet. If any of these states go for Biden then it will almost be impossible for Trump to win.

That’s probably more to do with people thinking it’s worth a punt seeing as his odds are longer than Biden’s, as opposed to him actually having a better chance of winning. That said I do worry about the fact that Trump still has a chance of pulling this off

Yeah I'd say it's the odds appealing to people.

One of my mates backed Trump at good odds on Election day last time, but says he won't be this time round.

Everyone gets a vote. Therefore the winner is justified.

The system only fails for people when their choice loses.

So every single person has the chance to vote , whoever is there come January they are rightfully there.

Yet, in the last us election trump got less votes I believe.

I don’t mind being corrected if I’m wrong.

You're right. By almost 3 million

Election day is finally here. Four years ago when Trump was declared the winner I felt so discouraged that I cried for a whole day. As an immigrant and a woman of color I couldn't believe people, some of them members of my husband's family, had voted this racist and disgrace of a human being man as the leader of our democracy. Four years later I'm hopeful for a better outcome. The US needs a better result because this election is bigger than just the presidency, our democracy and who we are as a society, as people, it is on the line.

Few nice odds laying around for a few Biden swing states, as well as the Trump win

Hopefully it goes off without a hitch, he actually loses and leaves the office. Though, either way, there will be drama ahead I guess

lol we have already established this yesterday

Conservatives got less votes as well if I recall in total, at least I remember people pointing that out. Despite the landslide.

Nobody is arsed about changing the system until it works against them. Should have raised this issue both sides of the water but noone really has.

Personally I'd rather see a total number of votes wins rather than fragmented but that's the system.

Thank you all for reading my thoughts/reports during this campaign season. What a wonderful community created by GOT, one that goes so far beyond our support of the greatest football club in the world. I'm grateful to be a part and that you've welcomed this bloke from weird and wonderful Texas.

I'm a bit too keyed up to go to bed as I should. It'll be a long day of poll-watching tomorrow. But I wanted to share my map before I forget.

We're going to crush him. It'll be a complete and thorough repudiation with the race effectively over before 11pm EST. 165-170 million will turn out and Joe/Kamala will win by more than 12 million votes.

@BlueTX good luck at the polls today and stay safe.

Your map is the kind of ass whipping I sure hope it happens tonight. Four years ago I wasn't able to go to bed because I felt so disheartening and terrified for our country. Tonight I hope I won't be able to go to bed because of elation. May tonight be the beginning of better things for our country because even if Biden wins we have a long road ahead to heal our country and move it in a different direction but his win will be a good start.

Just out of interest, have any of your husband's family had a change of heart this time round?

 

[degsy]

It will be quite funny if Trump gets in again, all that liberal angst, BBC and Twitter going into meltdown and Hollywood imploding

It'll be even more 'fun' if its undecided or a very narrow...GWB, Florida, a couple of 1000 votes Biden and Trump refuses to accept it.

A couple of them have, and they even voted for Biden, but his mom hasn't so our relationship has been strained for the past four years. Good thing she doesn't live in my town otherwise it could be even worst.

God I hope you're right...

Good luck mate. You deserve it.

(Won't lie though, your confidence scares the living **** out of me)

I’m sure in the uk it’s whoever gets most votes who win.

Weirdly torn between excitement at the prospect of no more Trump, and frustration at the prospect of Joe Biden.

The "no more Trump" part is much, much much more important though.
