This really reminds me of when Alan Partridge sacked everyone at Pear Tree Productions by buying them treats and then locking them all in the office while he ran off.

America will end up in civil war .Trump is the most dangerous man in the world right now .How can America preach to the world when the world can see she is a hypocrite and corrupt .Sad and scary times I can see right wing groups making their power plays on the back of this .What has gone on today from Trump is one of Americas saddest days and the fallout will start straight away .

Trump’s clearly in stage 1.

Stage 2 could be scary.

Anyone know how you get the vertical line for one cadidate like the one about 5am for Biden?

Genuinely, there may be a good explanation.

It will be one of either the Deep State, Hillary, Obama, antifa, some woke folk, China, Ukraine, Ocasio-Cortez, QAnon, Sorros, Gates or a shadowy combination of all of them trying to cheat Biden in to the WH.

From FiveThirtyEight.com

Here’s the latest picture in every undecided state:

Arizona: Biden currently leads here by 93,518 votes, but there are around 600,000 left to count, according to the Arizona Republic. About 450,000 of those are in Maricopa County, which says it will release two batches of results tonight: one at 9 p.m. Eastern and one sometime after 12:30 a.m. Eastern. Some outlets, such as Fox News, have already projected Arizona for Biden, but our colleagues at ABC News have not yet done so.

Nevada: Biden leads here by only 7,647 votes, and an estimated 14 percent of the vote is still uncounted. However, those votes will all be either late-arriving mail ballots or provisional ballots, which should lean Democratic. We won’t be getting another update here until noon Eastern on Thursday.

Wisconsin: The Wisconsin Elections Commission has announced that all votes in the state are counted, and Biden has a 20,510-vote lead in the state. The Trump campaign has requested a recount, but that has not stopped some media outlets like the AP to project Wisconsin for Biden. ABC News has not issued a projection here, as the decision desk won’t project races that are within 1 percentage point.

Georgia: Trump currently leads here by 79,509 votes, and the secretary of state said during an 11:30 a.m. press conference that there were still 200,000 mail-in votes and 50,000 early votes to count, mostly in Democratic-leaning counties like Fulton and DeKalb. Fulton is hoping to finish all its counting by 9 p.m. tonight.

Michigan: Biden currently leads here by just 37,350 votes, but it will be difficult for Trump to close that gap because most of the uncounted ballots are in very blue Wayne County (Detroit). At 2 p.m. Eastern, Wayne said it had only 16,000 ballots left to count, which it plans to complete by 6 p.m.

Pennsylvania: Trump currently leads Biden 53 percent to 45 percent in Pennsylvania, but this one is a long way from over — 19 percent of expected votes are still uncounted, most of them Democratic-leaning mail ballots. Counties are working around the clock to finish counting, but we’re looking at Thursday or Friday before results are semi-final.

North Carolina: North Carolina has counted every ballot it had in its possession as of yesterday, and Trump leads by 76,737 votes among them. However, the state has announced that about 117,000 mail-in ballots are potentially outstanding, plus an unknown number of provisional ballots. Mail-in ballots have until Nov. 12 to arrive, and only at that point will more results be released.

This was from 15.22 ET (so 20.22 here)

Does sound like Arizona isn't certain for Biden after all, that may have been a premature call.

Likewise Trump shouldn't be calling Pennsylvania at this point, I don't see a reason to justify that yet.

Time for Trump's Proud Boys to stand up and undertake their patriotic duty to prevent these votes being counted.
Trump's campaign manager and Trump's son have tweeted that they have " Won Pennsylvania".... Despite the facts that there are still 1 million votes to count and that Biden seems to be leading.... Looks like the Trump strategy is to claim they have won a state before a result is officially declared and then, if the state swings Democrat, say that there has been voter fraud.... Not really a surprise, Trump is SO desperate to avoid the shame of losing at ANY price.

This is exactly what he is doing. I am fairly, not entirely, but fairly confident that US law is robust enough to ignore the inevitable Hillbilly protests and cries of fraud.

Biden speaking to the nation now, flanked by the next president of the United States.

Very smart to pledge his support to Republican voters telling them he’ll work for them as much as Democrat voters.

Makes a change from the Orange bungle**** inciting his mobs to protest and possible violence.

An adult speech rather than one from the mouth of a spoilt child.
