Biden will probably make up minor ground in NC as well.

It will be interesting how these states trend moving forward. Trump did very well in FL and earned a 3 pt win. In Texas the R win shrunk to less than six points. If those two states tighten up 2-3 points (Texas following its current trajectory and Fl going back to a tight state) t2024 Democrat will have a chance to earn a one to two million vote lead outside of Ca.

you have the final numbers? Biden spent the most money in election history, surpassing Hillary in 2016 and she spent a lot. He had the media and wall street on his side. This is going to get ugly before it gets better. There is no way half the country will allow the media to protect Joe for the next 4 years.




this wasn't a landslide with the advantages the Dem have. This is a very divided country.

Not a landslide but a clear and decisive victory. Good God man, just concede already.
Learn the law. Those numbers are irrelevant.

I never said it was a thrashing, but that being said, people dont vote for divided government. Thats a lie people say to themselves when they forget House elections are decided on a district by district basis, not national party basis. Same with the senate.

We have fraud in Medicaid of 57 billion a year and Social security fraud of 1.3 trillion a year and Democrats pretend there is no voter fraud?

I wish they investigate this like the 2 1/2 years of the Russian hoax. How many dead people voted. How many people voted in multiple states and how many fake ballots. Whoever wins, we should get to the bottom of this.
California is 10% of the population, you cant discount it just because you want to.

And in 2016 there were only 136,669,000 votes. Now there are already over 152,800,000. Probably at least a million and a half left just from California.

Be interesting to see the turnout by state.

If this was a popular vote election, the campaign style might be different (both candidates would likely do a 50-state tour) but the result would be about the same. In-person rallies make little difference. People form their opinions based on national media, social media, websites, cable TV, all of it by instant electronic communications. Debates are broadcast nationally.

If there was a national popular vote Oklahoma would still vote red, Massachusetts would still vote blue and Florida would still split the vote. Very little would change.

Republicans outnumber Democrats in my city. Another detached from reality Trump supporter are we? I only know Biden won because I apparently only watch MSNBC?

I've tuned out the cry babies for the past few days. Have they come up with anything significant? A signed affidavit from a rabid Trump supporter is hearsay. Courts do not over turn elections based on hearsay, they've already made that ruling and will continue to make those rulings.
