This would be the next thing to cheer for. Trumpists create a divide between them and the GOP, further weakening both.

Actually, I would bank on this...which is delightful.

12:30 to 2:45:

Pennsylvania
The most recent Pennsylvania batches of 32,000 resulted in a net of 13,000 for Biden (71%). Trump's lead decreased to 95,500 with 560,000 to go.

At constant splits, Biden should be getting another ~65,000 net from Philadelphia + Delaware alone.


Georgia
The most recent Georgia batches of 3,700 resulted in a net of 50 for Biden (50.x%). Trump's lead decreased to 12,750 with 43,500 to go.

What are the odds on a perfect tie!

That looks like Trump probably wins Georgia no...

15,375 for Trump (35.4%)

vs

28,125 for Biden (64.6%)

Feels like Trump has GA at this point.

Possible but I don't think there are that many true Trumpers. People voted Republican, not Trump. In a two-party system in the States, they'd have to eventually run back to one of the main parties. But even if the Democrats could grab a percentage of that, it'll be something.

From Trump's perspective the GOP overperforming on Tuesday is the worst case scenario. They overperformed, so they are far less likely to care about him. Had they gotten beaten as badly as was expected they'd probably be right there with him. But they've used him for the courts the last 4 years, they don't care if he's back or not.

Just doesn't fly in the States with the electoral college. Maybe in a system like France it could work. Also Trump really doesn't have any money.

at this point, it's not unrealistic that Biden ends up with 306 electoral votes (more than Trump had 4 years ago), which just goes to show you how much the late counting of mail-in votes in certain states has skewed the perception of this race.

Lol people are still saying both sides! One side is trying to start riots because he is going to lose bigly and can't admit it. Biden is pretty close to the center...he defeated the far left quite easily in primaries. GOP will now come back closer to the center.

It depends.There are about 43K votes left and Biden is behind by 9.5K. If you take the # of votes remaining in each county and apply the existing vote share in each county to those ballots, Biden would gain 9K votes. But then it depends what kind of ballots they are. If they're primarily mail-in ballots, Biden might outperform. If they're primarily military/overseas, then Trump might outperform. Either way, it's going to probably be ridiculously close.

You'd think the Trumps would understand a relationship that is strictly transactional.
