Where are you getting this? Google shows Trump with a 3.7 point lead.

Biden now 46% in Michigan (from 43 not two hours ago). 250,000 back. Still just at 77% reporting. He's gaining rapidly.

110,000 votes separating in Wisconsin.

If he pulls those two states out of the fire and Nevada holds, he's got it in the bag.


I haven't prayed in a while, but let's pray.

What am I saying that's not helping anything? It was merely an observation. Edited to add: Oops, and also a bit of a prediction. Ha. (my bad)

The Times, although it has since updated to have Trump at 50.9% and Biden at 47.3%. No more updates from Milwaukee, though.

Tomorrow morning in Georgia and Wisconsin:

Biden should have told them to stop counting when he was ahead is Texas...what a dummy

I know I have to sleep. Just can’t. Work is probably going to be rough tomorrow

At least one guy is all for democratic process, even if it doesn't end up favoring him in the end.

I'm at the point that I just assume Trump will win, I'll have to stop reading about politics on social media for 4 years and just hope the U.S. doesn't destroy it's country and democracy.

If Biden wins I'll be very pleasantly surprised.

Let's hope for the latter.

Too late. They already destroyed their democracy 4 years ago, and it's only gonna get worse from here on out.

Just with a cursory glance at remaining counties and noting the percentage of votes needed in each state as per above:

Trump takes Michigan, Pennsylvania, and (narrowly) North Carolina.
Biden narrowly takes Georgia.

Leaving Wisconsin, which will be very close. Given the purported volume of Biden-probable absentee ballots remaining in Wisconsin, I'll give the nod to Biden for a 270-268 victory.

Let's hope that - or better - comes true tomorrow or in the following days.

Not the Carter type blowout I was hoping for but still a chance for a return to normalcy.

Here is ABC Australia’s updated map.

Looks like we will get Wisconsin vote count in the next half an hour (as per CNN), if I heard correctly.

[calgaryred]

Holy **** has Wisconsin become close

Michigan expects to have 100% votes counted within 24 hours.

[rubecube]

Wisconsin within 1000 votes!

Yeah something is about to drop. News says Wisconsin absentee votes are imminent and the betting markets just swung huge Biden's way (though still an overall underdog).

This is going down to the wire.

[djsFlames]

Biden pulls ahead in Wisconsin!
