    Biden may still likely win. I cannot imagine a sitting president surviving 2020. Mail in ballots may yet turn things in Biden's favor. However it looks to be either way a narrow as all fuck election. Which is shocking given how 2020 alone has played out. I mean, the economy is in straight up ruins. A disease has killed what? 200k people? And yet.... the Dems are unlikely to win the Senate, couldn't unseat Mitch and might go down in flames to Trump. I still cannot believe it though and think a lot of hyperventilating should wait a week and then go into melt-down mode

    On MMO-C we learn that Anti-Fascism is locking arms with corporations, the State Department and agreeing with the CIA, But opposing the CIA and corporate America, and thinking Jews have a right to buy land and can expect tenants to pay rent THAT is ultra-Fash Nazism.

    Yes a primary is actually a general election even though plenty of states have closed primaries and Independent voters decide the general election, which means Bernie actually lost to Trump even though he literally never ran against him. Makes complete sense, and is totally why Democrats should just keep doing the same thing running neoliberal moderates like Biden and make 0 changes, clearly a winning strategy as we've seen two presidential elections in a row now.

    If you do the math, if Trump wins PA it's over even if Biden wins Wisconsin and Michigan. It's highly likely that the other counties Trump won in 2016 look similar.
    Actually not true. Biden can lose Pennsylvania if he wins the other states. In fact, he can afford to lose one of the other states, too. It's Trump that needs a trifecta or he's out.

    So... you are counting on independent Trump voters, to vote socialist?

    No, we still have the dump trucks of extra ballots for Biden that haven't been counted yet.

    Ya they just need to up the bullshit to massive levels and get tons and tons of morons to believe in conspiracies and ridiculousness.

    what a great massive reform, just what our country needs!!
    Buh Byeeeeeeeeeeee !!

    Minnesota, Wi, Michigan, and Pennsylvania.

    It'd be close, but not impossible:

    I guess they underestimate how bigoted Republicans are? Like they actually expect them to look at her policies and not her gender or the colour of her skin.

    But yes, Biden is a safe pick and he picked a safe VP. "Safe" in the terminology of Democrats means most likely to appeal to conservatives.

    You can check here:

    If you put in Texas, Florida, and Pennsylvania for Trump (he's already won Texas and Florida), it's like an 85/100 chance Trump wins.

    I think if Biden wins Arizona and Georgia he might have a shot, but I think it's highly unlikely if he loses in Pennsylvania.

    They're currently on Twitter begging Trump for handouts.

    They love "socialism", they've just been trained to be afraid of the word.

The GoP will continue to suppress votes and keep people uneducated because that is their fucking base and if the dems don't get power and raise everyone up then this shit will keep happening. This is absolutely un fucking believable ZERO HOPE FOR YOU PEOPLE.
    Coastal elites have been trying to get the rest of the left to buy into their 'referendum on the right' for about 6 years now without while still being friends with their red centrists buddies and not giving anything to the people who they needed to carry to vote for them. run-on sentence...it backfired.

    Here a mail-in vote is treated like a traditional vote. In some states, there's a distinction between mail-in and absentee where you need a 'valid reason' for either and they can reject ballots on grounds more than say a signature like we have here (which isn't as harsh as some states).

    Are those remote ballots already approved and just not counted or can they still be thrown out?
    In Wisconsin, we have to apply and submit ID. Once you receive the ballot, you're golden.

    Counting the ballots is interesting; for many areas, no mail in ballots are applied to the total until all of the mail in ballots are counted. This means you go right from 0 to 100.

    Milwaukee is one of those areas, the largest source of votes in the state. They won't be posting mail in ballot results until at least 4am per the Mayor.

    Requiring an about 10.5%/3.5% split of remaining voters...
