Trump's Georgia lead is shrinking. Might just scrape the state.

Looks like Nevada's going to take all day (all night for me in the UK).

About 500,000 votes left to be counted in Pennsylvania now. Trump is ahead by 114,000.

Hopefully these new voting methods won't be necessary in 2024.

On CNN they say it's only 369,000 now.

They said 500,000 number was misreported.

However, they said a lot of votes could be from Philadelphia which is running 90% for Biden.

Trump is ahead in Georgia with 12,764 votes... and 47,277 to go.

By my calculation, Biden needs to get 64 % of the remaining votes to win, which seems bit of a far fetch. He's not that far ahead in the mail-in ballots in Georgia.

So my guess is that Georgia will - tentatively - go to Trump, but with a high possibility of a subsequent recount.

Trump leads the popular vote outside of California.

So, Trump has more votes than Biden in all other 49 states combined + DC.

Actually, I wouldn't be surprised - which the article also points out - if Trump *also* breaks Obama's 2008 record when all votes are counted. The increase in population and higher turnout since 2008 makes this a very likely scenario.

That's gerrymandering. If you remove Texas (after removing California), then Biden again has the popular vote, and so on back and forth removing states.

If you remove everything except Wyoming (the most pro-Trump state), then Trump has 69.9 percent of the popular vote.

If you remove everything but Crook* County in Wyoming (the most pro-Trump county in Wyoming), then Trump has 88.6 percent of the popular vote.

At 92 percent counted, Trump's lead in Pennsylvania has now dipped below 100,000... (97,908).

It doesn't matter if you "remove California."

The fact is----California is a big part of this, and Biden is leading the popular vote, and will win the popular vote----just like Hillary did in 2016.

I'm looking forward to Arizona and Nevada being declared for Biden---then, he wouldn't have to win any other state. If he wins Pennsylvania, he needs no other state that's "too close to call."
