Virginia is having trouble with students forgetting their ID and having to have provisional ballots which may not be counted. This covers up to 10% of today's in-person votes.
It's FaceTime or she opened the camera but you can see at the top of the phone that there's a phone call in progress
It’s clearly the camera app.
If you knew anything about what you are talking about you'd know that you can start an audio call either via FaceTime or the phone, minimise it and open the camera. But you don't because you're being silly.
As you know rumours of Trump overperforming in NJ persist. If that happens, the odds that Kamala's medium rank (NH/MN/VA) will fall to Trump is considerably larger, and you can wave goodbye to the battleground states.

New Champions League format is a drag. Its really impacting the teams in it with extra games.
Too much football.....its 7 days a week.
This is why cricket is better. More suspense.
This is an interesting decision from Stokes....
England captain Ben Stokes will not take part in next year's Indian Premier League after opting out of the upcoming auction. Under tighter rules regarding player availability introduced this year, it means the 33-year-old will also be unavailable for the 2026 competition.

All I have seen on here is posts like this and something about two LBC callers saying their mates in NJ are voting Trump. What are you actually pointing to here?
I guess that means he hasn't lost fair and square - if he has lost.
I see trouble ahead.
He's repeatedly suggested he would win nearly all (possibly all) states if it was fair. The trouble was inevitable if he loses.
He's stated that he would win California if it was fair. So it's fair to say he's somewhere between deluded and utterly deluded.
Edit to add:
He's not deluded. He's cunning. He's using anchoring. It's natural human reasoning to hear Trump say "I'd win California if it was fair", and to think "well, he wouldn't win California... but maybe Illinois."

It is VERY telling how much Elon is influencing Twitter that all the replies to the fake news Tweet about Kamala faking a phone call are pro-Elon/pro-Trump and the people calling it out as fake are two page scrolls down.

When so many big strong men come to him with tears in their eyes and say he was the greatest president ever, better than Washington or Lincoln, when they say he did more for black people, Jewish people, Latinos, than anyone and those voting against him should have their heads examined.. well, why wouldn't California be in play?

Please enlighten us.
I am finding @viewcode even more baffling tonight than ever. And that is a very high bar, because he’s stand-out baffling on the average Tuesday.

@jimsciutto On track for record turnout here in MI:
Michigan is already seeing record voter turnout, on track to match its highest election turnout on record, Secretary of State Jocelyn Benson told CNN. There has been “extraordinary engagement and turnout all across the state,” said Benson, who has been visiting polling sites throughout the day. “There are literally parties at the polls – people dancing, people celebrating, which is kind of what today should be,” she said.
Not really, as I think it’s been posted here several times.
And there’s nothing Jill Stein could do to surprise anyone anymore. Other than not run as a spoiler candidate, and hand over the Green party to actual environmentalists.

You are consistently and pointlessly rude to me.
Nothing personal! I just don’t understand what you are going on about most of the time: probably my fault!
And awful lot of it isn’t properly mapped. There are still 24in mains made of cast iron, with lead welded joints.
There’s a rolling program to replace it all - prioritised by leak occurrence. But we’ll probably have stopped using gas anyway before it’s all done.
The stuff outside my house was cast iron, so certainly pre-70s (which was when plastic was first introduced). Probably way older.
There are studies on progress to replace the gas network with one that is hydrogen capable. Apparently the big cost differential is removal of the existing pipework.
I have mainly sat on my hands as I believe Palestine will affect Harris vote by a margin
Finally decided to put my first bet of US Presedential Election as 2.58 was too tempting even though any payout may take weeks to payout.
£100 is the smallest I have bet on a major political event for years but am not at all confident so that's it this time round.
John Oliver's bit on the election looked incredibly reluctant in backing Harris despite his despising Trump. It was heavily about that issue and sure it was endorsement, but it was much more 'we have to do this' than any enthusiasm, which worries me about super progressives

I’d like to see the underlying data and what the comparisons are to. Are they comparing like with like? I’m a bit distrusting of sources that just post data without context.

Fair point. And they are not posting everything. Which means that i) they are cherrypicking posts to put Trump in a good light, or ii) they are posting things at random and those random posts all point in one direction.
Not sure can take too much from CNN first exit poll data. ClifNotes,
People are pissed about current state of things, don't think Biden was any good (but not that bad i.e. not Starmer level bad) and optimistic about the future.
Not enough ballot papers in the polling stations. Always a shambles.
Such big elections always bound to be some issues. I look forward to arguments a potential issue in a small county means millions should have their votes disregarded, as happened in PA last time.

CNN reports "voters have come out today and voted in the Presidential election", "expect both Donald Trump and Kamala Harris to attract multiple votes".
That's very mildly positive for Kamala - because you'd expect her to get the Democracy and Abortion votes, while Trump would get Economy and Immigration.

She's on the phone, that's the end of that conspiracy
He alleges cheating even if he would win, either ignoring his past claim or saying support was so high it overcame it.

That is passing up $2-3 million easy.
There’s still loads of old infrastructure, some of it Victorian.

Anxiously waiting to see how many blue haired lesbians voted in Kansas in the CNN exit poll. @Andy_JS would be a lot more useful.
Specifically the ones about NJ (Trump in lead?) and FL (Trump exceeding expected lead)
Leading white supremacist and antisemite says he’s backing the Jewish candidate over Trump because of former president’s ‘full-throated subservience to Israel and the Jewish lobby’"

A suggestion that they might have released something mildly interesting. Which seems unlikely.
