Michigan could flip

I think it's the postal votes still to count and what I read is those favour Biden. Also I read that a lot of the Georgia votes left are from the city of Atlanta which is better for Biden.

**** if Georgia flips I'm going to lose.

In all seriousness though, it's a consolation bet so I do actually want to lose. It's just nice to have a silver lining .

Oh, I would have advised against if I'd seen it quicker. I think Biden is going to sneak it.

well if trump wins second term, then America is one big joke, and politics wise on top of the pile of ****, next to that other trash nation Belarus (can also see Trump doing same as Lukashenko and trying to silence the media )

I did as well in 2016 but I bet pre-election-day at 5/1 which was a no-brainer. I haven't seen Trump anywhere further out than 13/8 until today. I'm not particularly happy with 2/1 to be honest because I'm not putting big bux on it but the temptation caught me.

Meh. It's an amount that I'll be "ahh well at least that's nice" if Trump wins but I'm more than happy to lose to see him gone.

I'm losing hope, I never had much in the first place though, since we all know how rife voter intimidation and suppression is when it comes to Trump. I think he'll steal it.

It also boggles the mind why so many latin voters are opting for Trump.

elections like this make me kinda all stressed


also it means not that much who wins election

since if Trump wins, the democrats are expected still to have more seats at Congress, so they have more power to block any of Trump's decisions

but if Biden wins, and the republicans are expected to have a majority at Senate, well they can block any of Biden's decisions


so if dems want a win-win, they need Biden to win election, and to have a majority at Senate

somewhat i understood this morning from our news correspondent Erik Mouthaan (who lives in America and works there on our behalf as our political reporter/expert)

Odds have Biden at the best odds to win then at any point in his campaign which is a massive shift from odds just hours earlier

I still stand by the fact Trump knows he's lost and that's why he's having another temper tantrum
