The race is run, the winner declared!

For further discussion of the election:

USA - 2024 US Presidential Election: Trump vs Harris (pt II)

I will be keen to watch the handover on J6 I think, Will the Bidens attend unlike Trump? Will the crowd be the biggest in history, Will there be a magical Mystery victory tour and rallies like 2016, Will he reduce his golf games and stop heading North in the Summer or home to Fl in the winter...

Ted Cuckruz hanging on in Texas

Allred polling 3pts better than Trump. Might not be enough in the end but it's a nice trend.

Probably because the left are generally more educated and know how to use a computer.

Let's be honest, a very large portion of the population are to the left of Donald Trump and his band of idiots

The Republicans have gained a Senate seat. Jim Justice, the Republican governor West Virginia, has won the Senate election after the incumbent, Joe Manchin III, an independent who caucused with the Democrats declined to run again after Mr Justice threw his hat in the ring. Mr Justice defeated Glenn Elliott, the Democratic former mayor of Wheeling. The Democrats didn't spend much money on the Senate race.

If I was going to make up a name for a Republican Governor, it would be Jim Justice.

How on earth are you getting the impression that Harris winning is/was a foregone conclusion?

Even most of us supporting Harris here thought/think it will be tight.

There were a few in here a couple days ago calling it over because Harris had shortening odds. Some of those predicting huge dem landslide.

 

[BOMBERS 4 LIFE!!!!]

Seeing a US election again really makes you appreciate how we get campaign and get results within 6 weeks.

Imagine we become like Americans and start wearing Liberal and Labour merch and go crazy during an election lols

It's insane how patriotic and full on into it Americans get in Australia we don't give a crap we vote and that's it haha

To me, Iowa will be really interesting to watch given Selzer's poll the other day. Trump favourite to win however how close Harris can get or possibly pip will be so interesting to watch.

Iowa shifts towards blue but Trump still wins is what we are looking for.

Will bode well for the other swing states around there.

What even is American TV? I just saw an ad for Jesus.

It's funny and disturbing reading Reddit threads on the World Series and seeing people comment about ads that are broadcast on US television that we don't see in Australia.

Needs to advertise - his numbers are way down

Probably because the left are generally more educated and know how to use a computer.

And watch MSM and believe everything the TV tells them.

We have an increasing number of morons waving around Trump merch, we're sadly closer than you may think.

Sherrod Brown polling five points better than Trump in the Ohio Senate race is good news.

When will the Atlanta votes drop?

They're starting to filter through I think. Good signs in Atlanta with higher reported turnout

There were a few in here a couple days ago calling it over because Harris had shortening odds. Some of those predicting huge dem landslide.

And there have been a few equally confident Trump fans.

Key is just to ignore it.

 

[HirdsTheWord]

Harris starting to really blow out now.

Trump Bibles outselling Jesus Bibles

 

[eaglespremiers]

Trump exactly 16 votes up currently in North Carolina (400,475 vs 400,459).

 

[FlowersByIrene]

When will the Atlanta votes drop?

They already have. Fulton County - 70% in, Cobb 56%, Rockdale 77%, Douglas 77%

NBC reporting that Harris is under-performing in various urban counties in Virginia compared to Biden four years ago, albeit with plenty of more votes to count. Trump thrashes all opponents in the rural/regional areas, regardless of his opponent.

Biden won Virginia Beach County in 2020. Trump is heavily leading Harris in the same county so far.
