Think you could tell from Trumps "Victory" speech this morning that he knew he had lost,

Looks like Biden will sneak it at this stage.

Hilarious that. "I'm fairly sure I've won, so we can just stop counting now yeah?!"

Stop counting, except in Arizona cos I might win that one. 🤣

 

Ridiculous

Reminds me of the other day when i was playing a board game with my 3 year old niece. She kept claiming she was winning, even though I clearly had more bits of pretend food on my pretend plate. 

She'll go far...

His last few tweets have been beyond stupid. 

Biden has gained a lead in WI that they think should seal it, and he's snuck ahead in MI too.

If those two come through and he holds AZ and NV, which he currently does, he's won it.

Although they don't have the senate so at least 2 more years of all bills dying at McConnells desk.

The worst is yet to come. Either way it goes we are going to see America’s un- silent minority causing violence, carnage and death on the streets of the US. Sad times

I think there is too much of a gap between the 2 in Pennsylvania.

Just an update on this, when 74% of the votes in Pennsylvania had been counted, Trump was ahead of Biden by 12.7%.
80% of votes have now been counted and Trump's lead has been slashed to just 8.3%. That's a voting swing of 0.7% in Biden's favour for every 1% of votes counted. If the trend continues at that rate Biden will win Pennsylvania too!

I don't think it'll be as drastic as that, but it certainly shows just how divided and polarised the US is at the moment.

I reckon we should give it a try with the Football League.  Just tell them we're sure we'll get promoted and see if they buy it.

Yes stop the league now. We have won it. No need for more games 🤣🤣🤣 Maybe that’s what Woodgate meant when he said that the table was lying 🤥 🤔🤔

See Pennsylvania have found a dozen "mislaid" sacks of votes...  after a judge ordered a search

Sounds like they found them yesterday during final searches of Postal processing sites. The judge that ordered the last minute searches is apparently going to open a court hearing due to the postal service's "lack of compliance". Hopefully it is a genuine mistake that they were not sent until the searches took place, rather than a more sinister reason.

It does sound like if they weren't found it would benefit Trump more. Which would be ironic considering he has claimed the election "fraudulent" against him.

Michigan is now projected as a Biden win. Over a 1% winning margin, which if I am right in thinking, means they cannot ask for a recount. 

Trump's lead in Pennsylvania has been chipped away massively. Now only 4.9% ahead, start of the day today he was 12.7% ahead.

Trump's lead is now only 4.5% ahead.

It's gone down but I suspect Trump still has it. It would be nice if Biden can take somewhere like Georgia just to make it feel like more of a success and not just feed Trump's cult followers into thinking the election is still on.

Either way, it's dreadful after the last 4 years that this is as close as it is. It's dreadful after the last 6 months even. It really goes to show that whilst Biden is doing a better job than Hilary, the Democrats can't put a decent candidate forward. If they're worried about socialist Biden in Florida then thank God they didn't select Bernie in the end... or maybe America really is just 50% happy to be led by a white supremacist. Maybe they've just been made to feel more human the last 4 years in their beliefs.
