Trump has more popular votes at this stage (69 million) than he got when he won in 2016 (63 million) :lol:

 

He got 74 million in 2020.

 

I assume fewer Hispanics & women voted for Harris compared to Biden four years ago.

If you want to see crazy election results look at what is happening in Illinois or Virginia. Crazy big shifts from 2020.

I see Harris has still won Illinois? Obviously losing Pennsylvania & Ohio is the big difference maker.

 

Polish media report Republians have won Miami-Dade county for the first time since 1988. I assume that's a majority Latin county with many immigrants from Cuba and others?

She did, but Trump got much, much closer than anybody expected.

Then why did so many pro-Palestine folks in the US ask people to sit out?

 

(But yes, this is looking quite bad for Palestine and Ukraine :( )

This is going to be a blockbuster win for Trump. He could potentially win all battlegrounds and made significant gains in serious blue states like Virginia, New Jersey, Illinois, Connecticut etc. States, with the exception of Virginia, where he virtually didn't run a campaign at all. 

 

Who knew 10 years ago, that Trump of all people will become one of the strongest political figures in American history. Only the second President to be re-elected in non-consecutive terms. And this after the unprecedented rhetoric and events around his persona.

Probably we won't see a woman candidate for a looong time after this. 

 

Maybe, just maybe next time Democrats can campaign differently than "Women should vote for women, what kind of women don't support other women, if you don't vote for a black woman you are .... etc. "

    • have a new National Team coach,  Hans Robert "Bob" Hanning    despite the amazing campaign that ended with the best performance ever at the world championships by our NT, coach Riccardo Trillini has basically been fired by the new Federation's President after an 8-year tenure   Hanning has had a very successful career as a trainer (especially with junior and low tier teams brought to the top level) first, then he was also a well known TV commentator and finally has dedicated himself full time to the Füchse Berlin, as a youth coach, as a manager and as an official (up to the CEO role)   he also had a major role in the German Federation, leading (as an official, not on the bench) the NT to the 2016 European gold and Rio Olympic bronze   the question is: after a very long time he's not been on the bench, will he be able to find his "magic touch" once again? 
    • yes, that's definitely an Italian sounding name...   but I have no idea if he's potentially eligible for our NT (especially for an Olympic team)
