I like living in a country where elections are short and boring and very little changes no matter who wins.

The highlight of any election in Australia is seeing Antony Green again.

I'd give anything to have a camera on Trump and his flunkies right now. It would be unbelievably entertaining.

GOP deliberately changed laws in select States so that postal votes could only be counted after in-person voting had closed.

Department of home security was in charge of printing ballots. They put a concealed watermark on them. Dems didn't know about this.The ones the Dems printed will be thrown out.
Trump wins in a land slide.
Don't believe anything the media is reporting.
Pretty much anything that twitter removes or Facebook factchecks you can 100% say its the truth.
Dems are getting real desperate

My thoughts on it all (not that they are worth much! haha).

This time last year Trump at a shoe in to be re-elected. The economy was pumping, unemployment at record lows, and while the left found him to be crass, there wasn't a lot he was doing wrong.
Fast forward through a global pandemic where trump put the economy ahead of the frail, and all of a sudden there was an obvious point to attack him on.
Throw in a couple of unfortunate, but not uncommon racial incidents that occurred with regularity over the last 30 years no matter which side was in power and there was enough ground swell to see the white house return to blue.
In the week leading in, everyone was saying it was a done deal.

However, once the votes started coming in, Trump shortened and shortened, $3.50 became $1.40 and there was a feeling he may have done it again.
He gave it a real shake and got close, but ultimately, as was always going to be the case in Wisconsin, Michigan and Pennsylvania, the 'blue wave' has arrived as pre-poll votes are counted last. These electorates where he was looking good have moved back to Biden and Sleepy Joe will hold on.
Calls of 'ballot stacking' were always going to come, but had these been pre-counted like most other states, and added in during the early hours of counting not right at the end, people wouldn't have even noticed.

Still a bit to play out in terms of finalising the counts in Georgia and North Carolina as well, but for now if the undecided states land with their current leader, it will finish Trump 268, Biden 270.

For a man who everyone wrote off a week ago, Trump has pushed this one right to the end, and provided plenty of entertainment along the way.

Now we wait to see if Joe makes it to January 20th, or will his running mate take over before he is even sworn in!

If you have more than one brain cell you would ask how can Biden get 138000 votes in Michigan without Trump getting a single vote.

Well, obviously thousands of Democrat operatives went around collecting postal votes to mail on behalf of people, but then steamed open the envelopes and switched in counterfeit ballots.

I laid Trump last night at $1.41 and then when I 'bought it back' I did it by laying Biden (wish I waited a bit longer! haha). So in effect I've got Harris for Free. It's actually the perfect outcome for me if Joe gets in and falls over before Jan 20th haha

I'm not sure on the process over there but as I understand it parties are allowed to arrange postal votes aren't they?
If the Dems got 130,000 people to pre-fill a postal vote for their guy, its not surprising that when this clump of votes are added in, they have very few Trump votes in them.

You might question if its appropriate that parties can collect pre-poll votes on behalf of their own candidate before hand (as it potentially makes fraud easier), but IF that is the system, then the results showing a big clump of votes coming in for one party isn't surprising.
