Biden could actually win

Counting in Wisconsin and Michigan swung in his favor late last night and this early morning, giving him a path to, if he can secure those two states as well as Nevada... a path to victory even if he doesn't win his home state of Pennsylvania.

If you count Nevada and Michigan with the states Biden has already won, he has 270 electoral votes exactly. And remember, mail in ballots which are counted last tend to be heavily Democratic.

Yep.

As it stands now, with who leads in the last remaining states, that is the situation.
I hope it stays that way.

We'll see. I heard something once about some singing fat lady...

I think AP's figures might be more accurate, hover over each state to see state results. They show significantly higher percent of votes counted compared to Yahoo.

Wait, I'm confused... the current 238 elector votes plus 22 from Nevada and Micigan equals 260, needing the third state?

I'm just not that optimistic.

He won in my state, which is just embarrassing. That this even a close election is embarrassing. Just like last time, only one of the candidates is actually qualified. I don't mind that some folks vote Republican, but I do mind if someone votes Republican when the candidate put forth is a psychopathic narcissist. Let's just free all the criminals from jail since we're apparently OK with not holding one accountable in the highest office of the land, kay? At least be consistent.

I was surprised to see this development. That swing Biden needed in those states happened.
But we do know either is going to face a sharply divided Congresses.

Neither candidate is well qualified. Biden is basically an ugly duckling who only looks attractive because the one next to him is so repulsive, foul, crude, and is even less in it for the average American than Biden. The only real advantages of Biden is who won't make waves (which actually isn't good because certain ones do need made), and is capable of acting like a mature, reasonable adult. Other than that he's a pro-status conservative elite as far as I'm concerned.

The question is if you had to put on a $ 10.000 bet knowing the situation as it is right now. Who would you bet on.
I would suggest that Trump is slightly the better bet. the momentum is going his way.

Who ever wins American politics is screwed for another Four years.
Biden would find himself in an an "Obama situation" with no chance of getting anything through legislation. and Trump is screwed both by himself and the house.

So the people are screwed once again....

Last election Georgia, Arizona, Wisconsin, Pennsylvania and Michigan were won by Republicans; Nevada was the only battleground state that was won by the Democrats.

How likely is it that Trump again wins 5 out of these 6 ?

I didn't caucus for Biden and he wasn't my choice of candidate, but I cannot and will not deny he's a competent, qualified politician with decades of experience. So was Clinton (didn't caucus for her either). Dumpster on the other hand had no political experience, has no respect for the system, no respect for the people, and it shows.

The idea that it could all hinge on Nevada adds to the drama. Biden's lead there is teeny and there's a fair bit to count.
All the ballots left in Nevada are mail in that arrive after Nov2, theyre good for up to a week in Nevada, mail in ballots were all leaning democratic so this might not be as close as it sounds.

When I got up this morning Biden was 800,000 behind in Penn with 74.5% counted, now with 80% counted hes picked up 300,000 and is only 500,000 behind, over a million mail in ballots left to be counted

Even if Biden wins, the fact that it was this close fills me with disgust. How did we become a nation of brain-dead bumpkin buffoons who reject science yet accept outlandish conspiracy theories? Who readily discarded their morals and principles for the sake of tribal loyalty? Who wanted to preserve the physical flag yet toss the values it represented to the flames?
Perhaps The South did finally rise again and thus brought America down.
