yep its too close it will go down the wire lol

the final result of this election is projected to be called tomorrow evening so there is a lot of vote counting to do still especially the mail-in ballots that heavily favors Biden


Yeah, I expected nothing less to be honest. Which is why I was surprised by the stark difference earlier.

Since I live in the eastern part of the world, I suppose that means nighttime for me? Well, I wouldn't mind that personally. It'll be interesting to see if the mail-in ballots voting go as expected by many (=> Biden).


lol im also asian living in south east asia that is its just that i was expose to international news early in life and most of the world news is about USA and it become more entertaining with Trump this past years

and yep expect it tomorrow evening GMT+8 in my timezone that is

Wow guess I missed that, good job on making the right choice.

Ditching MAL for 4 months right when the rioting started was the best choice I've made, the political situation is far too distorted for debate online to be constructive and it's only going to get worse, regardless of who wins.
Debates online are never constructive though what do you expect? Its only good for gaining better speech skills.
I think some times it can be constructive if you find someone actually willing to get deeply into to it and lay out all their points and exactly what they believe and why they believe it and having them answer some of your questions about it.

For example there was this anarchist on reddit who was posting 20+ paragraphs of his beliefs and he actually wasn't afraid to answer questions and while I of course completely disagreed with everything he said it was quite interesting to see in-depth what he believed in and he went about it in a very professional way and it never descended into the warrior battles of my beliefs vs yours defensive and offensive struggle like seen on here and elsewhere. It was more of a intellectual pondering of ideas which I admit I was surprised to find on reddit of all places lmao

Right, lol. I can relate to the entertainment factor doubling over the past 4 years or so thanks to Trump's ascendance in particular.

Oh well, I suppose you'd know better then. I was thinking it'd be over if 4-6 hours honestly. Same timezone for me too, by the way.

Man if Biden comes back in Wisconisin and Michigan; and Trump holds Pennsylvania and Georgia. And Nebraska is outright Republican, and Maine, Trump gets the one vote split. My 269 will happen LOL
Michigans going red though so its probably not gonna happen.


Well if that happens, then let's go for Biden completing a Patriots style comeback (ironically in Atlanta), Trump holds Pennsylvania; the vote split of Maine goes 1 Trump, and All Trump in Nebrask. 269 :D

There is no reason to call any state so early except solid states where there is a quite large lead because of conditions behind this election.

Mostly depends on where Georgia lands since it has 93% accounted for and is still considered a toss up. If it goes to Trump then Biden will need 2 states and if it goes to Biden he needs 1. Specifically the states it will be between are Pennsylvania, Michigan and Wisconsin. It's likely going to come down to absentee ballots but at least for Michigan they're still waiting for results for 3 counties around the Detroit area which notably lean democrat.

Definitely not the "blue wave" people were hoping for. Though mail-in ballots and other votes in the remaining states still need to be counted...

Even if Biden wins he's dealing with a rep senate and won't get shit done until 2022 from the looks of it.

It is statistically impossible for Biden to win Pennsylvania, Wisconsin, North Carolina, or Georgia.

Georgia: 4.6 million total votes cast, 94% in, this means there are 310,000 votes remaining to be cast. Trump leads by 100,000 votes. Biden would need to receive 210,000 out of the 310,000 to win.

Wisconsin: 3 million total votes cast, 94% in, 180,00 votes remaining, Trump is ahead by 110,000 votes. Biden would need to win 150,000 out of 180,000 remaining votes in order to win Wisconsin.

There's no way Biden is going to get well over 80% of the remaining vote. I have no idea why they haven't called Wisconsin yet, this is fucking ridiculous.

Pennsylvania: 5.3 million total votes cast, 64% or 76% in (sketchy as hell that they can't figure out what to say). Trump leads by nearly 700,000 votes. Even assuming the 64% figure, Biden still needs 1.8 million of the next 2.7 million to win, and with the 76% figure his chances are virtually zero with needing 1.3 million out of 1.7 million votes to win.

Michigan: 4.2 million total votes cast, 78% in, Trumps leads by 240,000 votes. Biden needs 625,000 of 1 million remaining votes to win.

North Carolina: With 5.4 million votes cast and 320,000 votes remaining. Trump is still ahead with 80,000 votes meaning that Biden would need 210,000 of them in order to win.

In every current state right now, Biden needs well over 60% of the remaining vote in order to win and in many cases more than 66% of the remaining vote. There's no way in hell he's gonna win Wisconsin. Georgia and Pennsylvania are extremely unlikely unless the Dems pull out some dirty trick and file 100 lawsuits. Those three states will bring Trump to 269 votes and then Alaska will put him at 272 even if he loses North Carolina and Michigan.

Those three states will bring Trump to 269 votes and then Alaska will put him at 272 even if he loses North Carolina and Michigan.

It could be possible that most of the remaining votes are in heavily Democratic areas like Atlanta, Milwaukee, Philadelphia, or Detroit. Nevertheless, Trump does seem to have a good chance of winning. Whether he wins or loses, it's going to be another close race.


The Democrats are placing their hopes on Detroit but Detroit didn't go that blue this year. Only 60% of Detroit is voting for Biden so far. An unusually large number of black voters in Michigan seem to be flipping and the white voters are probably angry at Governor Whitmer.

Philadelphia has already cast nearly 400,000 votes. They'll probably cast another 400,000 with 75% going to Biden but that stills only eats up about 200,000 of Trump's 700,000 lead and pretty much the entire rest of the state is red with the exception of Pittsburgh which isn't big enough to make up for the rest of Trump's lead.

Holy shit...just woke up to this chaos now!

Ok...so here is what the New York Times says...

There’s an 8% uncounted ballot total in Georgia right now...almost all of it is from Atlanta which voted HEAVILY for Biden...for that reason alone, the NYT says Biden is favored to WIN Georgia!

Meanwhile, Biden has taken the lead in Wisconsin!

Also, Michigan has 22% uncounted votes...almost all of this is Mail-in ballots!

Folks...it’s very possible Biden has won these Three states!

Trump is threatening to take this to the Supreme Court...but the counting hasn’t even finished!!!

Holy fuck...we have FULL chaos right now!

From a non-US point of view, this is certainly interesting.

As things stand, Biden's got the lead but Trump in a few hours is expected to come out on top.

I doubt things will end in a dull fashion so I'm kind of curious to see how it goes.

Arizona has indeed been called For Biden.

So that means Biden has 238.

Biden leads Nevada right now....that would be 244 if he wins.

If Biden holds on to Wisconsin that means 254

If the uncounted Michigan mail-in votes skew towards Biden....that’s 270 for Biden!

And like I said...The final 8% in Georgia is almost all Atlanta which heavily voted for Biden...,that’s 286 for Biden.

And I didn’t mention Pennsylvania, but of course that has a ton of Mail-in ballots that is not counted yet either!

Well I guess you'll have to wait a few days then - until every single vote is counted. If it is that close it might be dangerous to expect a win for one of both if technically (even if it is unlikely) the other one could still win as well.

Also those guys that need to elect the president at the end ... if it gets really close ... couldn't something funny happen? I mean didn't the last time a few not elect as ecpected? Imagine one has 270 the other one 269 ... but one or 2 of those 270 vote different at the end. :D

At least I can stay calm about it - since I'm not from the US. But I guess international press also willl enjoy the news about the trouble later. :P (If Trump loses close and tries to contest it at the Supreme Court and stuff.)

When all the votes are counted we’ll know who wins...it’s that simple.

The Supreme Court can’t do shit about that.

Trump is SCARED ...it’s that plain and simple.

This is the way it goes....you count all the votes and the one with the higher count, fucking wins.

What’s hard about that?

I KNEW this was a possibility...that’s why I named this thread “Election WEEK” it’s right there in the fucking OP.

Better than having the man-child Trump declare war on China. The US would lose that war.

True Now it's Chinese time era



Gongratz BIDEN he has wwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwoooooooonnnnnnnnnn
As someone well versed in Chinese history and their modern culture I can't see them winning any military battles tbh, only reason they've gained power is due to their economical reforms and the undermining and snake-like economical invasions of other countries.

Military wise though? The only recent war they fought was their complete failed invasion of vietnam after the US pulled out and most of those people are either retired or well-past their prime if they stayed in the PLA.

Which leaves their entire military as a bunch of brainwashed novices who's only military experience has been rounding up uighurs or suppressing unarmed rioters. No prior military legacy to speak of and even the "greats" of mao's era only really fought themselves who were equally as unarmed and inexperienced.

Sure you have the korean war where they pushed south koreans and the US back but even then most of those vets are either dead or retired by now.

Then you have the US, the British, Canada and many others who have a rich military history and culture and recent on the ground experience in regards to the war on terror.

It seems people like to play up China as a potential military threat but these people only know of the "super power" China and don't realize just 40 years ago they were nothing.

Michigan is turning blue as I type...

There are 11% remaining ballots almost ALL are Mail-in...which means they favor Biden and now Trump’s lead is less than ONE point.

So...Michigan + Wisconsin + Arizona (already called for Biden) = Biden Victory!

Again tho...we still have 8% remaining in Georgia and as we have been told over and over that is mostly from Atlanta which is HEAVY Biden.

Which would push Biden into 286 assuming he holds on to Michigan + Wisconsin.

One thing is true tho...IF Biden wins Michigan + Wisconsin he will do so by 3 or less points...which means once again the Polls were OFF....he was winning those states in the last polls by bigger margins.

Conversely, Pennsylvania still has a TON of Mail-in ballots to count as well...so there is still a chance Biden also wins there which would give him a good cushion so Trump and his fans don’t try anything.

BTW....other things happened on Election Day, not just the President race.

Oregon becomes the first U.S state to DECRIMINALIZE hard drugs like Cocaine and Heroin

Source: https://www.foxnews.com/us/oregon-first-state-decriminalize-hard-drugs-heroin-cocaine.amp

^WOW, amazing!

This is the first step forward to ENDING the nonsensical “war on drugs”.

Imagine living in a society that punishes humans as harshly as murderers and rapists for fucking smoking or inhaling or injecting something the government doesn’t like!

Congrats to Oregon....hopefully more states follow in their path.
