Thread: 2020 US Presidential Race

Ageing One, you have just redeemed yourself. I had rather taken you for a frazzled redneck peckerwood geriatric. Well done and carry on!

What ever else, I have to admit that trump called the outcome spot on. By this I mean the outcome in critical states possibly being determined by late counted mail in ballots. It is possible some of his leads get overturned, and with it the election. He has been banging on this for months.

I really can see blood in the streets if it goes that way.

A sad day.

Sincerely, thank you.

I feel bad for arguing with Snub about boomers, for the most part he hit them right on. They either sat on their ass or voted for the orange kunt.

If I was an American I would be a republican voter but I wouldn't have been able to make myself vote for Trump as the only moral trait I hold holy is telling the truth and he "can't handle the truth" to quote a movie line. Well what I really should have said is that he handles the truth very carelessly.

I suppose the only take out of this is that it proves 50% of Americans are not so smart, that can be either the 50% that voted for Trump or the 50% that voted for Biden.

Just the opinion of a dumb Aussie.

He's a liar who cheats in order to achieve an outcome that he in fact ill comprehends himself and usually becomes a position from which he then detaches himself after it fucks up.

He's a fucking idiot who uses cheap inflammatory rhetoric to pander to his natural constituency of the moron.

He is utterly worthless.

Christ, Dubya even thinks he's a cvunt and not worth supporting.

No other functioning democracy in the world would countenance his appointment to run anything.

biden is up in WI.

Are you sure?

Is BoJo much better?

milwaukee (city, not county) just released a lot data......biden is currently up 20,000 votes.

Yes there is ... about 65,971,208

trump is a feral animal.....he can sense danger that others can't.

he illegally investigated biden months and months ago because he saw the threat biden posed.

he ranted and raved about mail in ballots because he knew they would threaten his chances....and the votes yet to come from WI, MI and PA will very likely cost him the race.

if all the votes are counted (semi-big if), i'm growing more confident that biden is going to win this election.

I am afraid it is worse. Many of his voters must be aware that he is a cheat, a liar, a tax evader, a misogynist and they admire him for it.

Milwaukee county Wisconsin just got a big hunk of early votes counted. Biden now leads by just 10,000 votes with 90% counted. Keep it up

WI is going to be crazy close....and it appears biden is going to take it.

Interviewing the Milwaukee county election commissioner. Biden won 69% of the vote Trump at 29. But conservative counties are coming in. Hoping for a big turnout in Green Bay much more Democratic.

AO....where did you get the 90% figure for WI?

somebody can check my math, but it seems to me that biden gets to 270 if he wins NV, MI and WI

Looks like Oregon prepared itself better than anyone.

Oregonians made their state the first in the United States to decriminalize the personal possession of illegal drugs, including cocaine, heroin, oxycodone and methamphetamine. Measure 110 was passing Tuesday by a wide margin in unofficial returns.

The ballot measure would reclassify possession of small amounts of drugs as a civil violation, similar to a traffic offense. The penalty would be a $100 fine, which a person can avoid by agreeing to participate in a health assessment. Selling and manufacturing drugs will remain illegal.

“It takes a lot of courage to try something new, and I’m really proud of our state,” said Haven Wheelock, a harm reduction specialist at Outside In and one of the petitioners who filed the measure. “I’m excited to be a model for other places to show that we don’t have to harm people for being sick.”

It does appear that way to me as well.

Fuck that shit I'd be taking all of them.

a few positive tidbits from the NY Times



Nate Cohn, in New York 4:37 AM ET

This is vaguely reminiscent of 11 p.m. in 2016 ... but in reverse (and in slow motion): Biden’s the narrow favorite in PA, WI, MI, AZ, NV, GA, and it could take a while.
