I put a bet on Trump at 2.55 a few days back, on TAB.

Just checked online, the odds have flipped, Trump is now 1.58 and Biden 2.40. :shock:

I care little about our politics and less about theirs, but it seems to me, in very simple terms, that it really only matters who wins 4 or so states, the rest don't really come in to it? Is that sort of how it goes? Biden seems to be leading to me, but apparently Trump is the favourite. :?

The numbers for Biden and Trump are for Electoral College votes. Different states deliver different numbers of Electoral College votes. Small states less, bigger states more)

(You're forgiven for being confused. I don't undestand it all myself. Each state has its own way of conducting the ballot.)
cheers ta, ta to Jezza too, i really cant stand the thought of another 4 years of trump! i just hid hubbies flag!

Georgia has gone from a near-certainty for Trump to suddenly tilting towards Biden again, if The New York Times needle is anything to go by:

Trump campaign pissed off that Arizona has been called by media for Dems while 700,000+ election day votes still to be counted. Most of these game day votes would be for Trump.
