Fox News do like to be first about things, but AP is apparently an odd one as they are often more conservative with their calls.

(I'm parroting 538 here, I don't know these things well enough myself)

Fox are directly using AP I believe for their updates? I think I read that somewhere.

Well Penelope said this morning that Biden had already won Penelopsylvania

Penelope already announced Biden’s win in September!

 

[Iguana]

Amazing

Clicking on the Nevada map on The Guardian, it is borderline hilarious how all counties are massively Trump with tiny vote amounts, aside from Las Vegas and Washoe County (basically California) with ALL the votes and a Dem lead.

Somewhere called Esmeralda County () had less than 500 votes

I found a county in Texas with 4 votes for Biden! I did think it surely concerning for data protection when the numbers get that small.

 

[cwej]

If you like that, you'll enjoy Loving County, Texas. 64 votes. 4 people voted for Biden.

Oh didn’t see this already!

How reliable is this account?

 

[RJN]

How reliable is this account?

I don't know that account but those numbers make sense. Philadelphia voted 82% for Hillary in 2016, and mail in ballots favor Democrats heavily (especially in Pennsylvania)

 

[cwej]

95 really is massive.

 

[win_the_game]

Didn't the Pennsylvania Secretary of State say earlier on CNN that there were 100,000 votes to count in Philadelphia?

If those are all mail-in votes then FUCKING HELL THIS IS MASSIVE!

 

[AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAaAAaaaA]

How reliable is this account?

How is that even POSSIBLE in a city of that size?

 

[AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAaAAaaaA]

Is there a UK city/town where 95% of people voted Labour?

Surely Hackney’s 77% (?) most be one of the highest tallies

 

[Dark Carnival]

Yeah, I wouldn't believe these numbers.

 

[cwej]

Is there a UK city/town where 95% of people voted Labour?

But we're not saying it's 95% of the city that vote democrat. 95% of the mail-ins are democrat... which is biased towards democrats.

 

[win_the_game]

Biden looks like he could exceed Hilary's 82%. He currently has an 80% share of the counted votes in Philadelphia county (488k votes) to Trump's 19.1% (117k votes).

17% of the county vote is still to be counted according to the New York Times.

Even that is wishful thinking.

A quick scan reveals nothing above 80%, although a few CONSERVATIVE constituency’s that are just shy.

77% is also the average for the five Liverpool constituencies.

I think he definitely will exceed it there, and probably also in almost every major city in the country.

Edit: I think he will exceed Hillary's share in almost every major city, not 82%.

 

[cwej]

Even that is wishful thinking.

Yes but just factor in a bit of exaggeration from someone who probably wants that result and human estimation can easily go up a bit. I read 9 for every 1 earlier from a different source.

 

[Lucille]

I CAN’T BELIEVE NOTHING’S HAPPENED TODAY.

 

[RS]

Just crown this gorgeous man already!

 

[RS]

Looking a bit like Justin Theroux in my avatar.

EAT MY ASS JOE. x

EAT MY ASS JOE. x

He's nearly 78, he can barely eat soup.

SLOWER THAN KALAVISION

 

[Madison]

Georgia looks like it will be ridiculously close. A few thousands in it.

I just want to say that every single post in this thread you have been wit-tastic Octy.

 

[AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAaAAaaaA]

Hope you're all ready to TRUMP IT UP in 2024

 

[AGinAg (37)]

Interestingly Trump hasn't been seen since election night.

 

[VoR]

CNN are having a lot of fun speculating that the White House team are doing everything they can to PREVENT Trump from appearing on television

 

[K.C.]

Joe Biden's middle name is ROBINETTE

 

[big ron]

If something doesnt happen soon I’m closing this thread

 

[Dark Carnival]

Vote big ron

You're very kind. It's been an effective cover-up for my lack of knowledge as to the political make-up of the various states still to declare.

I'd vote for this if I could :emoji_thumbsup:

Arizona’s Secretary of State’s best guess is that we will likely know the result there 2AM (GMT) Saturday morning.

 

[ButterTart]

Less than 100,000 votes behind in Pennsylvania now.

They've really shit down their own legs on this one. They could have been last minute tastemakers but nobody will care once Pennsylvania has been called.

It would make sense. If they're wanting to use various legal machinations and exploit potential loopholes, the last thing they want is Trump going on mic and blabbing about it all.
