Trump

[BGreenWolf]

Just so I’ve got this right...Biden wins if he gets NV, WI & MI? He’s up in 2 of them and only narrowly behind in MI.

Correct. He's scything down Trump's lead in MI too- he was 300K down a few hours ago.

The red mirage was a real thing.

I slept okay but had the laptop on the bedside table, tuned in to the bbc site. Every couple of hours I had a look.

8am this morning Trump was Even money with the bookies now at 3/1.
Biden gone from 10/11 to 4/1 on.

So if you follow the money then Biden should get it.

Well Kanye West has conceded defeat so not all bad. He has announced he will be wasting his money again in 2024 though

Will he have a hologram as a running mate?

Well if people who have died are getting enough votes to be elected then the Hologram would probably get in as President on its own

I read that and thought WTF?

It's an actual plot from series 3 of the West Wing!

Its happened before in the States.
Their names can't be pulled from the ballot papers if they die within a certain amount of time before the election. Why people rock up and think "well my guy is dead but I can't vote for the other guys on the list, will pop a cross against my guy anyway" I don't know

So what happens? Can the Republicans put in a replacement, or do the Dems win by default?

 

[Sniffer]

I think that the Republicans can name a replacement after the result.

Think the runner up will generally take the result to Court to be announced as the winner

 

[Sniffer]

William hills are doing him 50-1 to win, stuck £20 on it, if he doesn't it's only £20.

Did you cash out this morning?

This happened in Georgia

"

Supreme Court Justice Charles Bethel wrote the opinion for a unanimous court upholding a decision by the Athens-Clarke County elections board to void ballots cast for incumbent commissioner Jerry NeSmith, who died three days before the June 9 election. Although a dead man may get more votes in a Georgia election, the surviving opponent wins the race, the Supreme Court of Georgia ruled Monday. "​

This is like a re-run of history. I just checked out the first 10-12 pages of this thread. Theres me saying Trump can win , Clintons crap, its a juggernaut that is going to take some stopping and theres others agreeing Clintons crap but she should still win and not one person has said they would like Trump as president, yet he got in. Lightening may well strike twice.

 

[Johnny75]

You know it's bad form to say 'Look at me I was right' don't you?

...or are the rules different in other states?

08:52

A “Trump Republican” who died of complications from Covid-19 one month ago has won a state legislature seat in North Dakota.
Politico has the story:

David Andahl was 55 when he died on Oct. 5, after winning a heated primary with an incumbent committee chairman. Sen. Kevin Cramer (R-N.D.) had endorsed the Bismarck rancher, saying, “we need more Trump Republicans in the State Legislature.”

The state Republican party is expected to appoint a replacement for Andahl.

Not when your whole being depends on it.

I'm honored to get my own channel

I did my best, but Trump carried my county with 80% of the vote here. Disgusting.
