Oh no, the riots we were warned would happen have begun.

You of course have it backwards. If Biden wins, Republicans go back to work. If Trump wins, Democrats riot. Luckily Biden won so store owners can take off the boards from their windows....

By the way, it is quite embarrassing that none of the networks or ‘news channels’ have called this election for Biden yet. He has clearly won Ga, Pa, Nv, and Az. They ‘called’ other states with similar data. My Trump hating son believes none of the media outlets want to be first. Pathetic.

Let's assume Trump gets Alaska and North Carolina.

To get to 270, he needs PA, GA, and at least one of AZ and NV.

If Trump gets PA, NV, and AZ, but not GA, then it would be a 269-269 tie, which would likely cut his way in the House.

It is just a matter of time now. One network said they want to be 99.5% sure before they call a state.

The betting markets still give Trump a 3% chance, but I suspect anyone betting the Trump side of that is also hoping on the courts.

I think Fox screwed the pooch with their early call of AZ (Biden will still probably squeak it out - but it will be close). Spooked the other networks.

NBC says they'll call PA when Biden's lead reaches 35,000 votes.

PA alone gets him over the goal line. Without PA he needs two of the remaining three.

I don’t think Trump has a path to win NV or PA. I believe he’s still alive in AZ and GA.

Well, enjoy your expating in style.

Think it is still a good investment?


Bitcoin will probably spike to six figures then collapse to mid-$20000s. The others will have their own spikes. Sell on the spike. Last spike I did not have enough to make it matter. This time I do.

I have been avoiding the talk here for the most part, but PA might go back to SCOTUS. SCOPA did the same as SCOFL in 2000, making law as they went along what with the deadline extension. If the late ballots get tossed by SCOTUS then Trump takes PA.

May you live in interesting times.

What late ballots? They haven’t even begun counting any ballots that were received in the mail after Election Day in PA.

Those ballots are most likely going to be irrelevant when all is said and done. Biden won’t even need them. He’s already ahead.

The late ballots are not included in the current count with Biden leading by 14,000. I think Biden wins PA without them.
