The way the final vote totals are trending as the final ballots are tallied it's looking like Biden will win.

By a lot less than he should have won by after the last 4 years, but still a win.

Which means Trump is going to go full psychotic for the next 2.5 months screaming the election was stolen and inciting his supporters to not accept the results because he knows there's a decent chance he's looking at a LOT of prosecutions when that presidential immunity to indictment ends.

Yeah, buckle up is right. The surprise is Georgia. Biden might not win it in the end, but that it was competitive at all sort of ambushed me....

As for Trumps antics, he's really become pretty predictable... and will be right up to the trip to the padded cell. Hope the Court doesn't intervene.

Polls seem skewed on Senate races... wonder what was up with that.

Those are not anomalies. The vote trending that way over time as ballots were counted was entirely expected due to the way the votes were cast and how they were going to be counted in states that didn't allow pre-counting of mail in ballots in very large counties where there was no way they were going to be able to get to the mail in vote until late.

And the mail in vote was overwhelmingly Democratic.

We've known things were going to go this way for weeks. Democrats swamped mail in voting because they take Covid seriously... and Republicans largely ignored mail in voting and opted to all show up in person on election day because they're morons who listen to Trump.

Biden hasn't won yet. Don't jinx it.

To be honest, Trump already won a moral victory, even if not the moral majority. Biden should have taken this thing by a landslide. What the hell is wrong with this country. Trump can still garner that many votes after his handling of the pandemic? I'm really considering fleeing this country before whatever the hell that is in the water supply affects me too.

The Senate race is a total surprise. Mitch McConell winning again is bewildering.

Son, your mother says I have to hang you. Personally I don't think this is a capital offense. But if I don't hang you, she's gonna hang me and frankly, I'm not the one in trouble. —cthia's father. Incident in ? Axiom of Common Sense

What's wrong is that your country is controlled by two dumb, egoistical and greedy monster-parties, who hate each other to the point that no long-therm project or investment is actually possible, but even more hate the idea that you would dare to chose someone else than them.
