EVEN WORSE news from Betfair

Betfair (02:35):

Biden 2.94
Trump 1.49

 

[funky]

Why is the BBC having news breaks?!? It’s starting to get ANNOYING.

repeating old news reports from earlier in the day. I've given up.

Texas - 73%
Trump overtakes with 49.4 vs. 49.3

WOW

This is why Dems win the popular vote. Close in Texas but clear winners in NY and CA

 

[POP!]

North Carolina is HOPEFUL

 

[funky]

If NC goes Biden we're in a MUCH better place.

Why is the BBC having news breaks?!? It’s starting to get ANNOYING.

I've given up BBC as well. CNN may be setting off my election anxiety, but I think I like that right now.

 

[Jark]

NYT still saying 94% likelihood of NC going Trump so... that Fox news thing must've been a mistake

 

[AGinAg (37)]

Bad news. The North Carolina votes were post votes.

 

[RJN]

Every source I'm checking has a completely different view of North Carolina. It makes absolutely no sense.

 

[Lucille]

Why has BBC not called Florida yet?

 

[funky]

Yeah I think CNN are being overly positive now to keep their viewers tuned in. NC is gonna flip back to Trump.

 

[Lucille]

Eurgh I want to go to sleep now, should not have had that second coffee.

 

[funky]

Ohio now evens

For fucks sake.

 

[win_the_game]

NYT still saying 94% likelihood of NC going Trump so... that Fox news thing must've been a mistake

Fox News now rating it at 87%

 

[AGinAg (37)]

Ohio gone over to Trump.

 

[VoR]

Oh fuck.

 

[Soldi]

In Ohio, cities like Toledo have only counted 40% of ballots. I’m still hopeful.

 

[dmlaw]

Sounds like Ohio has counted a lower percentage of its early votes, which is good for Biden.

 

[Broomhelga]

Wisconsin and Michigan looking good for Biden.

 

[Soldi]

Sounds like Ohio has counted a lower percentage of its early votes, which is good for Biden.

dmlaw - 11

 

[funky]

Apparently early voting is under counted in Ohio unlike NC, and that favours Biden. So still too close to call.

 

[Dark Carnival]

CNN confirming that votes counted in Ohio are only 41% early vote

 

[Soldi]

Surely if Ohio and NC are going for Biden then that still cuts off a Trump win?

 

[dmlaw]

I have to wonder which of these posts will be being quoted by bastards in 2024 when Eric Trump is standing against the re-animated head of Elizabeth Warren.

 

[GNL]

 

[Jark]

Surely if Ohio and NC are going for Biden then that still cuts off a Trump win?

but there's no sign that they are

 

[Jark]

I'm going to bed at 3.30 if there isn't at least a glimmer of good news

 

[POP!]

Michigan with 3% of Wayne County (Detroit) counted is VERY EARLY.

 

[win_the_game]

CNN confirming that votes counted in Ohio are only 41% early vote

CNN is way behind. 72% of the votes have been counted in Ohio and Trump is leading 50.2% - 48.5%

 

[vespertine]

At what time did Hillary concede in 2016? This time seems much longer.

 

[Kate]

Well Amy Klobuchar is still sounding positive

 

[POP!]

CNN projects South Carolina and Alabama for Trump - neither particularly surprising.

 

[funky]

CNN is way behind. 72% of the votes have been counted in Ohio and Trump is leading 50.2% - 48.5%

what are you watching? CNN is slow.

 

[funky]

Although they did just confirm that Michigan and Virginia are overwhelmingly counting day votes first, so Biden is due a big comeback in those states.

 

[win_the_game]

what are you watching? CNN is slow.

CNN too.

I was looking at the results on the Fox News website.

[Soldi]

what are you watching? CNN is slow.

I was going to say! BBC has 89-72 for Biden.

 

[RJN]

Decision Desk (which 538 talked up) seems to be the most up to date

https://results.decisiondeskhq.com

 

[POP!]

Although they did just confirm that Michigan and Virginia are overwhelmingly counting day votes first, so Biden is due a big comeback in those states.

They only counted the HICK counties in Michigan thus far.

 

[Madison]

You’d expect the swing in Ohio to be strongly correlated with the rest of the rust belt.

Even if Trump wins Ohio by a point or two, it points to Biden winning PA, MI, WI etc

 

[Kate]

Lindsey GRAM leading.

 

[Dark Carnival]

CNN is way behind. 72% of the votes have been counted in Ohio and Trump is leading 50.2% - 48.5%

41% of the COUNTED votes, not total votes.
