Unless those are 100% Biden, it's irrelevant.

Not exactly. I believe I heard around 70-75% of the for now uncounted ballots were sent out to registered Democrats. Which does not automatically mean they all voted Biden, of course, but that would be a high enough number to definitely make it close enough for Pennsylvania to not be called yet.

Even Joe won Pen state makes no difference. Unless Joe additionally won at least one state from WI, MI, Georgia or North Carolina. If the current outcome is correct, it's very unlikely to happen.

But that's just not unlikely at all. He still has fairly realistic chances mostly in Wisconsin and Michigan, not so much in North Carolina. Georgia will depend entirely on how many votes are still coming out of the Atlanta area (mostly Democratic) and Pennsylvania could get close, but is just impossible to say for now.

If Nevada (not sure, mostly rural area to be counted, so Trump) and Arizona (looks excellent) stay blue, Wisconsin and Michigan would be enough to win and Pennsylvania wouldn't even be needed.

 

Trump is definitely the favourite at this point, but it's really simply not decided yet, at all.

When I say unlikely based on AP results shows 94% Wisconsin votes counted and Trump leading 51.0%vs47.7%. If it's not 94% counted but an unknown numbers of mail-in votes to count, then the situation will be very different for sure.

100k lead with 90% votes in. No way.

Again, that too depends on where the remaining votes are coming from. He is the favourite, yes, but both Dane County and Milwaukee County - home to the two major cities - have quite a significant amount to report in yet and both are strongly Democratic (currently 75 and 60 percent Biden, which is expected to be a tad higher in the mail ballots). It's not just numbers, it's also where they are coming from.

 

Like in Michigan, Trump is the favourite, but Biden definitely still has a realistic chance. I mean, if he doesn't, the current betting odds of around 1.7 for Trump must be absolutely free money for anyone who is convinced Trump can't lost it anymore.

I mean given 100,000,000 people voted already (yours truly included) it’s probably already been mostly decided.

 

I think some people on here will be pretty confused by the results tbh.

I am confused about the results.

      Pretty crazy, just imagine if they won the World Baseball Classic (though personally I equate the two pretty closely).

      WWE introduced two new Women's Championship belts. The first one introduced was the Women's United States Championship and not shortly after that the Women's Intercontinental Championship. The Women's US Title will be exclusive to SmackDown and the Women's IC Title will be exclusive to RAW.

      Alpine Skiing FIS World Cup 2024 - 2025

      By copravolley · Posted

      Greece and Portugal also have winter sports centres - but of course these are not homologated routes for World Cup competitions I have never been to Albania personally, so I don't know the country at all. I have been in southern Croatia, though, and there are mountains there but you definitely can't ski there (I was there in the summer, but it's also impossible in the winter). World cup taking place there only in Zagreb.    In general the case of Colturi and Kostelic is completely different: Colturi has no ties to Albania and Janica Kostelic was Croatian and didn't left their country even though at the beginning of her carrier (and also her brother Ivica) her father had to pay for everything and the federation's support was zero. This only changed later. I imagine that the Kostelic family had offers from other countries (Austria, Switzerland, Italy?) to compete for them, which were much richer (at the beginning of the 21st century Croatia was a very poor country and devastated by war). All the more respect for them because they were true Croatian patriots until the end. I can imagine the Colturi family in a similar situation... Her mother would probably negotiate with half of Alpine Europe for Lara to compete for them Which of course doesn't change the fact that the Italian federation completely gave a shit in this situation. They let such talent go in a situation where they hasn`t a single female athlete on the podium of the World Cup in slalom for a dozen or so years. In the giant slalom it's not much better either, only there the older athletes cloud the picture: Brignone and Bassino. However, behind these two there is absolutely nothing...

      Men's Football UEFA European Champions League 2024 - 2025

      By copravolley · Posted

      Atalanta is probably playing the most beautiful football in Europe right now: spectacular and effective. It's nice to watch and they don't have to spend a lot of money for it.   Inter is playing very economically. It's not impressive but it's consistently collecting points. It's also the only team in the Champions League that hasn't conceded a goal this season.   Milan played very poorly yesterday but they won. They have 9 points and are close to qualifying for the play-offs.
