  • This is Trump's isn't it?

    More than likely, yes.

    Georgia and North Carolina are the closest two left and therefore they'll determine the winner.

    That Grauniad link currently has it Biden 238 - 213 Trump with Biden taking Maine and Arizona.

    If Biden does take Nevada and Wisconsin that's only another 16 electoral college votes giving him 254 (he needs 270).

    That means he'd need Georgia (16) which is slipping away, 2% behind with 94% counted.
    NC is only 15. Biden is 1.4% behind with 94% counted.
    In PA (20) there's very little chance. 12% behind but only 64% counted.
    MI is 16 but he's 5% behind with 81% counted.

  • Considering we've spent weeks talking about mail-in ballots affecting the state swings dramatically, it seems everyone has forgotten this on election day.

    There's a reason Trump wants counting to stop; we're expecting a heavy Democrat vote in those uncounted ballots; some in the region of 10:1 in favour of Biden.

    I think it will be incredibly close but I think Biden might sneak it.

    Horrible that Trump has increased his actual vote count over 2016 though. America is truly fucked.

  • True.

    But even if Trump "wins" by stopping counting it'll get overturned in the courts eventually.

    Checking the numbers it seems that to overturn the results Biden needs ~60-62% in those remaining states (except Georgia where he needs 67%) of the remaining ballots (numbers according to Grauniad).
