Popular Post Jack Mountain Posted November 4, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted November 4, 2020 (edited) 3 minutes ago, dunroaming said: I am watching the reports now, flipping from station to station. Best coverage seems to be the dreaded BBC at the moment but that may change. After Trumps bizarre claim that he had won, Andrew O'Neil interviewed Dominic Raab who evaded answering every question put to him. Same with Liam Fox. They both dodged the issue of Trump lying and how they would fair with Biden over a trade deal post Brexit. Next they rolled out Farage. As you can imagine O'Neil tore him to pieces too. A joy to watch! bizarre claim? Why? All signs on green for Trump. Edited November 4, 2020 by Jack Mountain 3 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In the one I saw he did not ask for all vote counting to stop now. To Quote him " we want all voting to stop" Voting should stop if the polls have closed. Counting the votes should continue. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The pollsters said they adjusted for the mistakes last time. Fivethirtyeight.com apparently got it right many elections in a row...until Trump. What is it? Hillbillies hiding under rocks. I should say Biden is still some chance. I wonder if anyone regrets there vote when they see how Trump carried on tonight.

Why don't you ask yourself why polls have been very accurate for decades and all the sudden they are way off involving two elections with Trump. Go figure that out, and btw it is not "hiding Trump voters", and get back to us with some better informed comments. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If it involves widespread subterfuge by polling companies please provide some evidence. Polling companies succeed based on there success. Credible polling companies make money from being correct. I am interested in what your theory is. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think that for many if you believe in something you don't mind speaking up about it. Polling isn't about shouting from the roof tops - just answering a few questions about your opinion. For some reason polling companies struggle to get the full picture with Trump. Either Trump voters are shy or maybe the polling companies are asking the wrong people. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

melvinmelvin Posted November 4, 2020 Share Posted November 4, 2020 should each of the two candidates end up with 50% of the electors, what would be the formal process to follow in order to end up with a president elect and new president? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Fat is a type of crazy Posted November 4, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted November 4, 2020 4 minutes ago, Yellowtail said: The left attacks anyone that supports Trump as racist, stupid redneck losers and then the left wonders why people don't want to admit they support Trump. People aren't voting for Trump as much as they're voting against left. Clearly the left must understand this, as they are certainly not voting for Biden, but simply voting for the left, yes? I think there's truth that people are not voting for Trump but against the left. I find it strange because Biden's version of left is still fairly right wing compared to many countries including Australia. Having healthcare available to people isn't that left wing in my opinion. He wasn't raising taxes much. Republicans have always been effective at raising fears about the left and it looks like it worked this time. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

melvinmelvin Posted November 4, 2020 Share Posted November 4, 2020 the thread of this thread use the term "betting odds", (yes, I know what that is) however, to what extent are these odds derived from calculated probabilities of lose/win and to what extent just a tally of the number and size of placed bets?
