Well, if 2016 didn't convince me to ignore polling, tonight has.

...and what's with all the praise of democracy I'm seeing? Bunch of sickos.

I guess it's going to depend on whether there's a blue wave with the pre and postal votes.

Biden is well up on the popular vote so far.

Don't believe it rEv. Americans have decided they like Trump. Even if by some miracle Biden wins, this is a disturbing loss for the US.

Yeah, I assumed all the extra voters would be appalled by Trump and would come out for Biden. Doesn't quite seem that way at the moment.

I guess a lot of people don't tell pollsters how they're really thinking of voting. :dunno:

He comes out to speak. They shout out "We love you!" He thanks the American people and goes straight to accusing Biden of trying to "disenfranchise us". "We're winning everything." They clap and whoop! They swoon when he says that they can't be caught in the South and descend into uproar when he says "We've winning Pennsylvania!" He tells them they don't even need all the States. Nobody has never seen anything like this, "We've had such a big night." The margins are YUGE I tell you, YUGE! "They knew they couldn't win so they're going to take us to court - I've said this all along."

At the moment The Guardian website has Biden with 1.5m more votes and 225 electoral college votes to Trump's 213.

Don't worry. If Trump gets another term he'll have whatever semblance of democracy there is in the USA binned before the end of 2024. You'll love the coming dynasty, the unbridled nepotism and corruption to come. You better. There's nothing you can do to prevent it. But there's a bright side to it: You'll no longer have to deal with that odious form of government any more - democracy.

And then he says he's taking it to the court. He really is a fucking idiot.

AP (and Fox earlier) just called Arizona for Biden. And the egg-heads at our ABC reckon Biden could still easily win Pennsylvania. It's not over yet.
