Someone in Great Britain apparently bet $5m on Trump to win the election today.

Sounds like the gambling has all shifted in favor of Trump. Apparently the Chinese yuan is crashing because of the way the election looks
Don't want to get cocky cause it could swing again, but that's apparently what the money people are thinking.

I'm not convinced yet. CNN still saying that PA also has early votes that will increase as a percentage of votes counted.

Yeah I wouldn't be cocky at all. But it's kind of crazy how the results coming in can swing so much making you think you're doomed, you won, no you're doomed. But I'm watching with intrigue for sure.

Ain't that the damn truth. 2 hours ago I was pretty bummed. Things look good now, but I know how fast that shit can change. That electoral and popular count are gonna take a hard dive in the wrong direction once cali, oregon, and washington numbers start coming in. Just gotta snatch up enough of these smaller EC states and swing a few others our way to stay far enough out in front where it won't matter.

It's always funny seeing these states almost entirely red with a couple blue blips. But those blue blips are the big cities.
wonder what makes big cities lean dem?

Also, why do democrats vote early at such a larger percentage than republicans?

Betting odds are already creeping back down for Trump.

The Trafalgar pollster flatly said Trump needs to win PA by probably three points to overcome the late crooked votes. Sad but I guess true.

The left coast is irrelevant. We have always known how it's going.

These are the states that matter: Florida, Georgia, North Carolina, Pennsylvania, Ohio, Michigan, Wisconsin, and Arizona.

Trump needs most of them. And he's leading in most of them right now. But it's close.

PA has already announced it's not likely to call tonite.

Right now as it is, every state is following along with 2016 except Arizona and Iowa with Biden in the lead, and Virginia with Trump in the lead. That would be a +4 EC votes for Biden if it stands.
