Current Affairs The 2020 United States Presidential Election

In a run off scenario?

Yep. Anything less than 50% in Georgia makes for a run off.

In a run off scenario?

Yeah. Got no chance of winning outright

Sounds about right, they've been hijacked by the very idiots they've cultivated and manipulated into voting for them over the last 30 years.

Voter suppression is a big deal.

This is a more subtle way:

@TN Toffee As a Titans fan I have an affinity for Tennessee even though I've never been there (I plan to when the world hopefully returns to normal). But this is depressing. Hopefully it's just because it's such a safe red state so people are messing about

sake lad, TN is a fine place but not in the top dozen or so US visits, less’n yer big inter NASCAR and maybe even then not top 3.

small protest of trump voters at one of the polling tabulating places in Arizona.

CNN Anchor: "uh what are they exactly "protesting" they are counting the votes there and isn't that what they want"

Reporter: "well they are chanting Fox News Sucks"

I'll be in Memphis this weekend which isn't a half bad city. Nashville definitely appeals only to a specific audience.

never bad, and Memphis is great, but for an overseas visit? Like taking a holiday in Hull?

I've been to the US a lot. At least 10 states I think. Mainly been to the coastal states though. Tennessee appeals because of Nashville and potentially getting a Titans game in. Then I'd like to go to Texas which I've never done. Louisiana is on my list too

 

[Rook]

still cautiously optimistic but not ready to start celebrating or anything.

What needs to be more efficient? Each state is following their laws. We all knew the laws/regulations at the outset so we knew how long it could take. States actually have a mid December deadline to submit official tallies. I’d say having results weeks before the deadline is damn efficient especially in the middle of a pandemic.

Listen if you are happy with the way your country runs an election them fair enough tell me to mind my own business.
It's just from the outside looking in all I see is television slanging match between 2 old farts who are both older than the president who left the office in 2001.
One who's answer to a pandemic is too get some bleach down you and the other who doesn't appear to know which state he is in from one day to the next.

Embarrassing and worrying what is going on outside the place where they are counting in Maricopa County

I feel sorry for Phil on CNN. He is like a young John King but he has to deal with Cuomo who seems pretty clueless

Interesting list Wiz but New Orleans, LA is 100% worth a visit. French quarter is the spot if you go. Bourbon street is a dirty overrated mess though.

If you’re into the outdoors at al, give Colorado or Utah a look. Beautiful places with some friendly people.
