Its the questions...they are overwhelmingly against the standard trump positions....like massively...illegal immigrants, deportation vs pathway to legal status, 72% for the later.
As I have no real clue whats going to happen in FL I've decided to use this tweet from Wasserman as my gold standard tweet on how Florida will vote based on the Sumpter result which should be in pretty quickly after polls close. https://twitter.com/Redistrict/status/1323739073912147968 My money is on the 'Florida will be Florida' % So wont tell me anything
Agree. However, I can’t see the average surgery having the storage technology. And, as one of the commenters said, there’s got to be a time allowed to get the individual doses....... ?preloaded syringe ..... to get warm enough not to have a deleterious effect on the patient! Maintaining the cold chain will be difficult, although not impossible. Case as stated, not easy, but not impossible, and, of course, very welcome.
The U.K. government was the largest global buyer of fridges earlier in the year
Can confirm that this news about vaccine is circulation widely officially within the NHS. Although you presumably need some pretty powerful fridges to store a vaccine at -70 degrees.
Standard -80 at any uni biology/ pharmacology dept.
Liquid nitrogen dewars go down to -190 degrees!
We got to play with the liquid nitrogen in second year experiments.
Having used it for 25 years the novelty wears off. Still like making snow in summer (ice formed on transfer hoses) though...
Did you ever play "how long can I stick my finger in the liquid nitrogen"? Probably just as well we aren't allowed to use it in schools...
That's reminded me of a story my son tells of a party he went to as teenager. A dare went wrong and one of his friends got erm "part of himself" stuck to the freezer.
based on that Biden needs a 8%ish lead in the NPA votes (54%46%)
Based on no Republicans voting for Biden. I think there will be a lot of registered Republican seniors in Florida who have switched to Biden because of the virus stuff.
Who exactly have they polled? The numbers seems way more radical than I would expect, even with Trump on the ticket....or maybe Trump has made them far more radical.
By those Fox questions Trump is going to lose bigly.
Logically yes, but a large number of people are so partisan that they will vote for a candidate or party despite disagreeing with much of what they stand for.
Not really, the GOP is split between people who want a pathway to citizenship (your Reagan and your Bush types) and then the other portion of the party.
Really racist policies is a minority American position, they just form a very large proportion of one of the parties.
None of the vaccine trials have been unblinded yet. This is good news, but until enough people in the placebo group get CV19, there is no official news.
Statistically, we're any day now for Pfizer/BioNTech, and probably a month away for AZN/Oxford and Moderna.
Hopefully not a month away from the completion of the British AstraZeneca trial. The implication seems to be that the UK may authorise the Oxford vaccine on the basis of the British trial without waiting for the results of the US trial.
They are the same trial, but I guess you could close early if you had hit sufficient patients to get statistical significance
Why do you think they're the same trial?
Because that’s the standard approach between the US and Europe these days. Single trial with recruitment from 3 geographies.

Wasn't the figure quoted earlier from a poll showing Biden +14 with NPAs?

That is true. there's a good chance that more Reps vote Dem than Dems voting Rep

Though less in Florida than elsewhere as there are still a few Dixiecrats in the panhandle.

How are people watching Fox in the UK (assuming they are)? It would be amusing to see the Fox anchors rationalise these results, or rubbish their own poll.
Change to government run healthcare, is something like 70% for.
Looking at Fox News exit poll numbers, seems like America wants radical change, not just get rid of Trump.
It's the start of a 2020s leftist wave, starting I hope in the USA and ending here in 2024. We're coming back!
Biden is leftist?
He's got some leftist policies in there and compared to Trump he's a leftist absolutely.
If politicians like Biden were elected in European countries I don't think people would be calling it a leftist wave.
Biden isn't, but i would say his platform is a lot more left wing. Massive increase in minimum wage, phase out oil industry, ban paid bails, legalize weed...all Sanders stuff.

He is the rejection of right wing populism. I am under no doubt if he wins this starts leftism returning in Europe.
Don't forget he was the anti-leftism candidate in the Dem primary. What he potentially represents is a rejection of populism and polarisation, not particularly left/rightism.

They are totally ignoring it, showing viral animal videos and talking about dog parks.

I don't see how you can be so assured of that to be honest.
I hope it's the start of it, I don't know for sure. But I think with Arden winning and Labour coming back here, something is happening in the world.
I think you are extrapolating those who handled covid well e.g. labour won state election recently in Australia more easily than normally, but nationally the right leaning parties are well ahead in the polls...both regional and national governments are credited with a very good response to COVID.

Politics in different countries don't impact one another like that. A shift leftwards in the UK or other places in Europe will happen due to trends closer to home, I am sure.
I mean, the Spanish socialists had a big increase in the first of the 2019 elections, so why does leftism have to wait for Biden to return?

If Biden wins the biggest impact here will be on Brexit and Boris Johnson especially, including the Good Friday Agreement. For the UK, this time is massive.

You just said that you were under no doubt!
If Biden wins it will not be an indication of a desire for "leftist" politics, more a rejection of divisive childish populism that is personified by Trump and to a slightly lesser extent, Boris Johnson. It will be a desire to return to having grown ups in charge. The Tories need to ditch Johnson and his lightweight entourage pdq.

Just saying. I have a vested interest

My money is on the 'Florida will be Florida' % So wont tell me anything
Very good for the democratic process.
I am not sure Biden is radical enough.
66/1 the other day.
Really racist policies is a minority American position, they just form a very large proportion of one of the parties.
Is a Biden landslide on the cards?
Biden Electoral Votes:
(a) 270-299: 8.6 / 9
(b) 300-329: 7.8 / 8.2
https://www.betfair.com/exchange/plus/politics/market/1.170917778
Obviously if the non-party votes split in line with the national ratings, it would cancel that lead out.
If its 67% of Registered voters its only 142m
There was that stuff earlier about their being pessimistic on GOTV on PA.
I mean, the Spanish socialists had a big increase in the first of the 2019 elections, so why does leftism have to wait for Biden to return?
Arf!
