Anyone know when they’re bothering to start counting the mail in votes in Alaska and begin the long March towards Biden taking that one as well?
Have you considered that the pattern of mail in votes in Alaska might not follow the same pattern as elsewhere, at least to the same extreme of polarisation that we've seen?
Alaska is rather different to the rest of the US, especially in November, and I suspect they might do things differently there. eg. What if there are places where you can ONLY vote by mail?
Can we be clear. Those 8-9k potential ballots in Georgia are a) OVERSEAS and military (I.e expatriate voters) so won’t all be military and b) not actually delivered yet so we don’t know how many will actually arrive. We don’t know how many will arrive and what their composition will be. My hunch is the US military is pretty organised in getting those ballots back to the states so I’m guessing most outstanding ballots are from expatriates. That is just a guess.
You know, the flips announced by CNN really will go with the WI/MI/PA theme...
How is your NV ls 50/50 to NV leans Trump journey looking Robert?
Oh, I moved to Likely Democrat last night, and it's "Almost Certainly Democrat" now.
Yeah, almost all the mail ballots are in Clark and split Biden by 11 points so far. Hard to see Trump coming back. AZ is closer but the AZ data peeps seem bearish that Trump can keep the momentum he needs to win it. Likely Biden is the estimate. Georgia will probably stay blue but that’s a bit less certain. Once the remaining 10k odd mail ballots are counted there are 9k possible mil/overseas that might arrive in time (hard to tell lean, possibly a wash), 2k mail ins to be cured (probably lean D), and 5k provisionals (also probably lean D, won’t all be counted).
In 2016, the military ballot went for Clinton, which I suspect is an artifact of the Georgia military being majority African American. Simply: I can't expect it to have an impact.
It is possible that the recount changes things, after all there was the whole county where votes were the wrong size and had to be manually recreated. BUT I'd reckon it's less than a 5% chance.
As it stands, Biden is 99.9% for PA, 98% for GA, 95% for NV, 85% for AZ, and 40% for NC.
I think that many soldiers have little time for Trump.
Notable this year was another resounding Republican success in the State legislatures. It looks as if they will hold 59 out of 100.
by-election in Aberdeen held yesterday. Kincorth / Nigg / Cove ward
SNP 1661 (47.4%, +6.7) Con 709 (20.2%, -1.3) Lab 429 (12.2%, -5.3) Ind 367 (10.5%, -0.4) Lib Dem 128 (3.6%, -1.6) Greens 58 (1.7%, +1.7) Ind 92 (2.6%) Ind 31 (0.9%) Libertarian -16 (0.5%) Ind 16 (0.5%)
SNP hold.
THanks for that. On checking, I find the election is caused by Stephen Flynn becoiming a SNP MP for Aberdeen South in place of Ross Thomson the Tory. Mr Flynn was top of the slate at the previous cooncil election so we are comparfing like with like (sometimes a problem with interpreting by-elections in those multimember Scoittish local cooncil elections, of course).
Doesn't promise much for the Scottish Tory fightback - fishing area, too - and still less for SLAB, their local Unionist Alliance partners on the council and the supposed penal battalions for the Union over the next year or so. Still less any tactical voting from Tory to Labour, though that's hardly to be expected here when the Tory was No. 2.
Aberdeen South has an SNP MP and an SNP MSP so it really just signals no change
Only had a SNP MP for less thjan a year. The NE fringe is supposed to be a Tory stroinghold. All those fisherfolk, remember.
Aberdeen South is more a suburb of Aberdeen than a fishing port, next year the Tories should focus on holding the MSPs they have, the gains necessary to deprive the SNP of their majority will need to come from SLab in the central belt winning over Tory and LD tactical voters where SLab are the main opponents to the SNP
The best bet I totally failed to make was this. i'm pretty sure i was reading it right but it was a bit mad at the time. I'm not clever enough to post this as a picture and not sure exactly when i posted it. maybe around 3.30am. if there are any of those vote graphs still around it might confirm what the lead was then.

The changes compared to last time are computed summing together the 2 SNP 2017 candidates: Flynn polled 27% and Alex Nicoll polled 13.7%
Do we figure that GA is settled yet, what with those 8000 military ballots? I know the military weren't polled breaking so much for Trump this time, but I wonder if there is still the possibility of some reverse ferret value here?
Georgia military went for Clinton in 2016, so I suspect they'll go for Biden this time around.
THAT SAID: I doubt the State will be called until after those are received and tabulated.
Thats why I cashed my profit out Cant see Betfair settling in November
National calculated R from the ONS data is 0.9-1.1 depending on the region.

I've been reliably informed from family and friends who are doctors that the NHS is basically giving remedial training to all medical staff to administer vaccines as they expect to need to administer 150m doses within 6 months for it to be effective which is a huge task.
Re the uncounted Pennsylvania late arriving ballots, I can't see the Supreme Court accepting them. Simply, the legislature said the end of election day, and the Supreme Court changed it to Thursday because of postal delays. The SC will say that the Pennsylvania Court had no right to allow that change.
This will be the only challenge the SC will hear in Pennsylvania.

I agree with this Robert, I think Trump will get a win with this but not much else, and those votes wont make a difference of course.

There are another 4,000 mail in votes plus up to 8,800 military ballots in GA to count. (The real number will be smaller.) I suspect that means the overall Biden margin will be in the 4-5,000 vote range.
While there will be a recount, GA is a Dem pickup.
Trump has paid the price of alienating moderate Republicans (and I'd be in that category if I lived over there). It may be his appalling boorishness and his other grotesque character traits play better in the States than they do here but frankly few people of reasonable intelligence could put up with such a twat in the White House for another four more years.

It was my fault for getting people excited about Alaska.
The nimbers do not seem to be there on second look
Trump only 52% in latest Maricopa. Not good enough. GG.
Down to 1.05 with Bf now
Worse for Trump that drop was some ratio of late-mail in (strongly R, closer to 15 points) and on the day drop off. That suggests on the day was very D leaning. Biden could actually extend his lead in the next set of drops.

Almost all the permanent Alaskan population is around Anchorage and Juneau, isn't it?
Mail in voting in AK doesn't even start until next week. The Senate race *might* be interesting, and the state is trending Blue, but I'd be very surprised if it didn't stay Red at the Presidential level.
Still, who the fuck knows. This election has thrown a ridiculous number of curve balls.
Adonis is an arse, but there now a serious problem re: brexit, no?
Why? There’ll be no US trade deal, which was always going to be the case, but with the advantage of not even being offered a shit one by Trump we’re pressured to accept. The grand strategy is, presumably, to become part of the Pacific deal so that ultimately we get the US through that route by default.

Indeed and a number of my right-leaning friends are commenting on how dignified and, well, Presidential Joe Biden is being. They seem as pleased as I am.

That assumes the US rejoins the Trans Pacific Partnership. (Which would be amazing for the world, if it happened.)

Well, there’s a good reason for that: Both states accept absentee ballots that arrive as late as next week, and they won’t provide any updates until Nov. 10 (in Alaska) and Nov. 12 or 13 (in North Carolina). In fact, Alaska hasn’t released any absentee-ballot results yet, so that state (and its surprisingly competitive Senate race) is still up in the air."
And whatever Thom Tillis thinks, he hasn't yet defeated Cal Cunningham for the Senate. The Alaska Senate race is also not a given.

Can't see Trump getting close to 60% of all those 220,000 left in AZ, but I do expect once it gets to a point where he clearly cant win there he will raise some spurious legal issue there. Regardless if Biden is heading for 306 Trump , at least for now is going to cry foul. Losing is bad enough, for him losing to Biden is humiliating so he's just going to keep making more and more erratic claims

Alaska is weird. We have some equipment there supporting the oil industry (I get to go to the middle of nowhere to upgrade it at some point). Almost none of the oil guys live in state, but it’s very important for the local economy. On the other hand the Alaskans can be very environmentally minded. It’s probably the most ideologically unique state in the union, which is how Lisa Murkowski can win as a write in.

Biden and the Senate candidate are running neck and neck
I wonder if Trump being behind by thousands (and more) in several key states will restrict the fervour of the post-election litigation. It's so unlikely to change the overall result that I suspect some key allies will step back from supporting/funding some of it.

They get super kudos for having GA as a 56% Dem chance on their needle when it was at about 9s on Betfair.
