    It's possible, a little more so since Trump over-performed among Latinos.

    But that possibility doesn't seem to be animating the knowledgable election watchers. Even that GOP-leaning polling firm that called FL, MN, MI etc for Trump predicts a Biden win there.

    Only non-witches get due process.

      There's still a decent chance Biden could pull ahead in PA.

      Almost by definition the counties that take the longest to count are the populous ones, where Biden has commanding leads.

        The betting odds favor Biden in PA.

          Now we'll see which side planned ahead.

          Then we'll see how fast the other side can catch up.

          Will we get a concession speech before or after Thanksgiving?

            CNN called WI.

            A little anti-climactic since Stepien effectively called it 2 hrs ago.

              @LuFins-Dad I think you're underappreciating how much the new media landscape has broken the dominance of traditional media. (and this will continue to be the trend)

              It's the same thing that led to wokeness / mass protests without even a figurehead.

              51% of Americans get their news online, 35% from tv, 9% from radio and 5% from print media. Many of those online are visiting sites such as NYT or CNN.

              If the vast majority of all types of media were biased against Trump (they were), how does this effect the vote? If Biden is elected, it is in large part due to media bias and Trump's personality. The media has helped elect a dementia patient as POTUS.

              But, there is a silver lining. A Biden presidency is going to be a disaster, if he follows through on his promises.

              “Cry havoc and let slip the DOGE of war!”

                The msm won't let Mr. Biden do anything wrong.

                They can guarantee it.

                He is all set.

                And the Harris presidency is even more iron clad.

                What racist misogynist will dare say a discouraging word?

                      If this ends up 270:268, how likely would it be that one or a few faithless electors would appear?

                        American elections are like NASCAR (the alternative to motor racing) - the rules are tailored to guarantee the maximum amount of uncertainty so that it isn't until right at the end that some guy who doesn't appear to be quite all there is declared the ultimate victor.

                                        @LuFins-Dad Is that an issue that they've been dealing with? Non-postmarked ballots? How do they get to their destination without a postmark?
