2020 US Elections

[Damocles]

I think it's going to be 296-242 to Biden.

Sorry, official results are already in.

 

[aguerrrroooooooooooo]

Georgia, Michigan, Wisconsin, Nevada, Arizona.

I think we will end tonight/tomorrow morning 276-242 and then without chance of winning, trump & the supreme court won't be able to fuck up Pennsylvania, so that will go Biden on Friday.

I'll hand it to you and @SWP's back you've both been consistent. I tipped Biden for a narrow win beforehand but I honestly can't make my mind up now, my nerves are totally shot

It does, but it didn't address the wider issue that I pointed out. Not so much about your history with Bigga but about how dissent from the mainstream opinion is attempting to be silenced (for lack of a better term) for rationale that are not applied to others.

If nothing else, you can see how people who talk about how Trump is bad all day calling for Bigga to stop saying Biden is bad because they've heard it, is hypocritical and selective? If absolutely nothing else, you can presumably acknowledge that there is a hypocrisy there.

Exactly what I was thinking.

Wisconsin looks tight. Will depend on what’s not been counted... I’m hoping they are absentee ballots. I think Georgia is still in play.

 

[Bigga]

Ripping into Biden isn’t a problem. There’s a Biden thread where it happens a lot.
There’s a Trump thread where he gets ripped.
We are all guilty, it’s true of bringing it into every thread, but really this is all about the election race and we are counting votes now.
We are long past the primaries, and the campaign.

So, when people ask why 'x' is voting a particular way, the only resort is to label those people as 'stupid'?

If they've asked a question, you can offer an opinion on the question, surely?

If that bleeds into reasons on the candidates, so be it.

[bluesy]

Biden is almost caught up in Michigan. I hope Trump is raging.

 

[Uncle Wally One Ball]

Is it coincidental that at this stage we're only left with mainly the states that could go either way?

What a staggeringly stupid post

Mate, they're hypocrites.

They don't like an opinion shining a light on the issues of their guy as well.

Doing so has them accusing me of being a supporter of the Gimp.

False equivalency, but they're too busying frothing at the mouth to understand it.

It's cool though, bud.

Cheers for posting.

Flip that @Bigga
Are you not lumping all of us that express a distaste for Trump as a Biden supporter.
It feels like it to me.
There is more than two points of view in here. There are various.

And nobody likes being called stupid.

Once again Trump being Racist in chief by trying to stop black Americans postal votes being counted.

This is how the Guardian sees it as of an hour ago....

The race stands at 238 electoral votes for Biden to 213 for Trump, with six battleground states outstanding. If Biden can hang on to a narrow lead in Nevada, and seal the deal in Wisconsin, any additional state – North Carolina (15 electoral votes), Georgia (16), Michigan (16) or Pennsylvania (20) – brings him victory.

Although they might be wrong, north caroline would not be enough, has to be one of the other 3.(I think)

 

[meltonblue]

Think it’s over bar the shouting (which is going to be horrific)

Really ? Jesus

 

[Coatigan]

Of those called, he's mathematically behind.

The margin IS suggesting Trump loses given the types of ballots still to be counted. We've seen it all night in the ikes of Virginia.

I meant of the votes counted so far, but yes touché.

Time will tell if the predicted trends are worth anything.

 

[Lovebitesandeveryfing]

Probably posted at some point over last few days but he may yet have called it right, fingers crossed he didn't though.

Don't want to derail the thread, but I couldn't help thinking of the Brexit debate and the way the referendum went, right the way through that rant.

 

[Corky]

It's a penalty kick now.

 

[TheRemainsOfTheDave]

Biden extending lead in Wisconsin to 20,700 (92%). Also cuts deficit in Michigan to 27,000 (86%). Shouldn't be this close, really.

I can certainly understand someone calling it hypocritical yes, but everyone's prone to hypocrisy at some point.

I think my issue with Bigga critiquing Biden rather Trump as the "true evil" is that Trump obviously (in my view) represents the greater danger to wage equality, worker rights, the environment, Covid etc than Biden and Bigga would be joining in IF his preferred nominee was opposing him. So, funnily enough, I find that somewhat hypocritical in and of itself. Bigga would raise my chagrin far less if he was a Trump supporter who supported Trump's policies and actions.

As I've said, Bigga is entitled to his view, no one will stop him telling us his view and that's fine and dandy by me.
