Mega-Thread: 2020 United States General Election

[Xeones]

My biggest fear is Nevada that's it in terms of the Presidential race, am I wrong to be concerned?

I'm worried too, it's a state that went in Hillary in 16, but the fact that Trump is still so close to Biden means I don't believe in any state to do the right thing.

Shame liberals who gave them money. The Lincoln Project raised almost $70 million from mostly liberals.

Endus is right it's called a coalition something more rare in the states, more common in other democratic countries. The point is Republicans against Trump Showed up, considering how difficult that was concerning a nearly 90% approval with Trumpsters.

Should Biden WIN, I am alright with having worked with Republicans.

google says its 248 v 214 , doesn't that mean 214 has to be very lucky to win?

not sure how usa voting works...

If Trump takes 4 out of the 5 remaining uncertain states + Alaska, he can win. Biden just needs 2 out of 5, and right now both MI and NV are leaning towards him.

Are you trolling? The internet is literally full of information on this. I'm not sure why you have to come here with shit one liners asking completely basic questions repeatedly. This isn't google.

Reported for being very rude. Not everyone knows about other countries election systems.

You got a receipt on that?

Thats all I can find, as I am terrified myself. So Biden was 5.3 going in, its close now. Can anyone expand on this?

For the xth time. The outstanding votes are mostly in LV and reno. I don't know why people are having trouble with this.

Again, that was literally always their goal.

Heck, a lot of them are probably liberals, given that classical liberalism is right-wing conservativism.

Their short-term goal was defeating Trump. Sharing that goal justifies aiding them in achieving it. It doesn't mean you support their long-term goals.

Well when they said they will wait until tomorrow to give us a final count is when my worry was realized, I also know they allowed some polling precincts to stay open later because of some issues.

I am really hoping the only votes left to count are mail in and lean Biden.

That doesn’t say what you said.

It's really fun that ever 3 page is dedicated to answering all the same questions.

[Blur4stuff]

I'm seriously looking forward to unplugging after this and forgetting that politics exists for awhile.

"Democratic donors giving lots of money and resources to Republicans who support Republican candidates for future elections is actually fine"

do you people even hear yourselves

do you even want Democrats to win????

[Paranoid Android]

Pennsylvania Democratic officials are privately telling Biden campaign officials that they believe final margin of victory for Biden in Pennsylvania will be 100K-200K votes when the counting is finally done

The best info I can give you is Hillary won the state by like 2 points. I think Biden has won all the states Hillary won by a somewhat larger margin than her so far? I'm hopeful, but I'm not confident.

HAve they stopped counting in Nevada for a break or am I looking at the wrong sources, seems to have been on 588 v 580 for hours now...

[DarkAmbient]

Sky projecting a Michigan win for Biden.

Yea, NV has already reported all in person election day results, and any early voting or mail-ins received by 11/2. I think the update tomorrow is for additional legal mail-in ballots received post 11/2. I think I heard additional counting will start 9 AM pacific time tomorrow with results later in the day.

You realize it's not a promise of continued support, right? It's a one-and-done donation.

If they continue supporting the Lincoln Project as they turn their sights on Democratic candidates, you might have a point, but that's not a reality we're living it.

This is kind of like when Romans paid off a minor power on their borders, so that power would stop raiding the Roman border and aim their forces at another target, one giving the Romans even bigger problems. It doesn't mean there's an alliance. It's "the enemy of my enemy" stuff.
