I have to admit it may actually end up being a comprehensive electoral college win for Biden. I expected him to win the popular vote by more than Clinton did but electoral college to be low 270's. Could be above 300.

I've been wondering how Biden will approach his Covid response. Being the US I can't see him trying to put in some lockdown given the economic effects, plus he'd be starting off his presidency on a very unpopular thing that would just fan the flames more. But he can't just let the situation...

If you're arguing studs raised technically they both had them raised going for the ball. Just Walker got there first. It looks outside the penalty area so only a free kick, and he's going wide so not an obvious goalscoring opportunity and therefore red card for that. It was definitely a free...

It may be more of a case of behind closed fingers if we give them too much respect and go back into our shells after Wed allied to basic defensive errors.

His biggest prob will be the Senate being Rep controlled. They block and filibuster everything they can under a Dem adminisitration so they can say how ineffective the President is. It's what Mitch McConnell does. Not saying the Dems don't do the same to an extent - they'd gladly vote down...

Happy with a draw, expecting a defeat. If we can at least put in a good showing that'll be something. Also really hope we don't lose due to another self-inflicted wound. No idea on the team with injuries etc.

We don't elect an individual to be President or Prime Minister. I've said before our elections need constituencies to ensure every area is heard. But at the same time we need a method which is more representational of the populace overall hence why I think FPTP is fine to elect the commons and...

The other dodgy thing is why was it made so that voting of the mail in ballots couldn't begin in certain areas until after the on the day votes had been counted? Only rational I could come up with was it was in areas where it was likely the mail in vote would favour Biden and would give Trump...

Wouldn't surprise me. Probably against Harris who I reckon will end up being President over the term assuming Biden wins. If not I would really love to see Michelle Obama take a run at it. I wanted her to go against Trump this time round because to see his head explode losing to an Obama, a...

Remember Bush and the 'hanging chads'? That was ongoing for months.

While ignoring the fact that without it Trump could very well have won. So if it's punishment from God it's punishment he's aiming at Trump.

That's crazy. Why do it in a state the Dem's are likely to win reasonably comfortably anyway. If you were going to do this you'd do it in swing stats like Penn and Wisconsin. Be like us saying we're going to cheat for a penalty in a game we're 3-0 up in but not do so in a game that's 1-1.

He'll still be in the West Wing, just one in a prison.

I get the argument but a lot of it is disingenuous. For example in the rust belt many programmes were put in place by the Dem's under Obama for retraining in things like tech and in some small cases renewable energy (not a massive thing over there as yet) to replace those lost jobs and it worked...

I do see your point and like with the Georgia vote counters all being sent home with 10% to count it just looks dodgy as fuck even though that isn't necessarily the case. Maybe postal voting should have an earlier cut-off (if you've not done it by the day of the election it's kind of on you and...

I agree with the overall assessment but the thing about being a defender is you can be immense for 90 minutes, lapse for one second in injury time and lose the game. We're doing that too often. It was to a certain extent there last season but we got away with it as the lower level players...

In a way this is possibly why no crowds could help. Make that error with a crowd and the anger/disappointment from the stands and probable booing at th full whistle when on the whole the team played pretty well could affect the players and make them scared of making errors in the future. Without...

As far as I'm aware they can COUNT votes received up to 3 days after the vote BUT ONLY if it's post-marked on or before the day of the election.

A bit of German dwarf tossing always cheers me up too.

You're having a shit one tonight aren't you? However, is your missus available to play at the weekend? It might be the best chance we've got of keeping a clean sheet.
