Anyone think Fox have done this on 'purpose'? Are they ready to dump Trump? Or are they just stupid?

Trump's lead down to 9,500 in GA now.

Do we know the count % mate?

I’ve seen nothing mentioned about Alaska and only 50% counted... obviously it’s as red as they get, but why is it so far off being counted?

49.5% plays 49.3%

I think just stupid. From what I can tell at Fox it's 8-10 presenters who are batshit crazy - at other times of the day the coverage has been very fair balanced/critical etc.

It's just the likes of Twatter Carlson and Shit Hannity take all the coverage.

Still saying 50,000 uncounted, but they did say there were anther 11,000 to add to that earlier.

Maybe they are too busy baking?

Sorry dude, meant left to count %.

President Trump is not planning to throw in the towel simply because Joe Biden declares victory, CBS reports, quoting a senior Trump campaign official.

“In a free and fair election, the president will win,” CBS quotes the official as saying.
BBC Ticker.

Quite right too...after all Biden didn't throw in the towel when Trump declared victory a few hours into counting.

I sooooo need to find out if this is true tomorrow.

Yes, it's true. I saw the story a few weeks ago.

They've still only counted 66% of votes in California.

Biden's popular vote win could be huge.

At 41 years old (am I?) that really shouldn't have tickled me as much as it has.

Cartogram is still saying 76% - but yes, scooting round declared Biden wins have plenty of room to improve the popular vote.

I'm just still amazed Trump's vote share has risen as well.

Anyone seen Trump recently? Maybe he's packing?

Eric's taken over the Twitter bollocks tonight, so I was wondering the same.

I hope he's slipped into a manic depression.

He's washing his hair......

It's in the tumble dryer as we speak.
