Yes I can see that.
Totally off topic, but people should check out that show Braindead on Amazon. Goofy sounding premise (alien bugs eating the brains of people in washington dc), but surprisingly clever and well done.
"I do enjoy Mr Felix posts - and his insults. I never return them because I don't think they're interesting enough to bother with. For a man who says he was a Headmaster before retiring, I'm just glad he wasn't mine. "
Seems like today is Plato's 'gratuitous insult Friday'. I love a challenge. You'd never have been a student at my school - top Kent grammars can be pretty discriminating about who they take and you'd never have made the cut.

I'd quite like the SNP to stand south of the border. They'd get more votes than they imagine.

However Hillary is winning about 90% of the black vote and has a clear lead with Hispanics
The most surprising result was Slough voting Leave.

I'm grateful to other PBers for sharing all manner of stuff that I'd never see otherwise. How dare I complain that isn't good enough unless they shrink a linky that suits me?!
Not sure if it's a Vanilla bug or from the PB Wordpress template.
It's so reassuring as you are waiting in the checkout queue at Waitrose knowing that most of your fellow shoppers were REMAIN voters
I assume it's an Iphone bug, I've never had a problem on my old or current Android.
Which means about 50% of them would be Leave.
different. Regardless of how Slough voted, whites voted Leave by 53% to 47% ie slightly more than the national average, 67% of Asians and 73% of Black voters voted to Remain

A sad reflection on us today that in a pop of 200 million with enormous potential, no Pakistani qualified for the Olympics in Rio.

"Perhaps the hardest thing to do in contemporary American politics is to imagine how the world looks from the other side. I’ve made no secret of why, as a Republican, I oppose Donald Trump and what he stands for. But I’ve also been talking to his supporters and advisors, trying to understand how they see and hear the same things that I do, and draw such very different conclusions..."

This is another way to 269 each if he loses Michigan but must win Colorado and Nevada.

If it's 269-269 on 19 December, or 268-265-3-2 or whatever, nothing officially happens until the votes cast by the electors get counted, which will be on 6 January at a joint session of Congress. At that time, there may be objections.
If nobody has a majority, then the House of Representatives goes into session the same day to choose the President from among the three who received the most EC votes. Each state has a single vote, and Washington DC has no vote. This is how two Presidents were elected in the 19th century. To be successful, a candidate must receive a majority, namely 26 votes out of 50. The House continues balloting until it elects someone.
A VP would be elected by the Senate, with each senator having a vote, but only the top two candidates on the ballot, not the top three. Again, a majority is needed, namely 51 votes out of 100.
