“Both Culver and Lynch are considering moves abroad if Donald Trump wins, but Lynch concedes that it would be difficult for him.

“Being someone who works in the service industry, and pretty much living paycheck to paycheck right now, it’s not financially viable. It’s honestly a nightmare scenario.””

The question isn’t that.
It whether the voters will believe the outcome if there is a steal.

Trump nicely up in North Carolina & Virginia and that would get Trump to 234.
A lot has to go right for Kamala from here. Georgia win would be 250.
She needs nearly all the west plus Penn & Wisconsin.

Had blood test. No Cellutlitis, thank the Lord. The Emergency clinic at Macquarie Park top drawer – you are on a bed, with canula in, blood taken, blood pressure taken etc within 10 minutes. Blood results within 30-40 minutes as a recall. Meantime tea & bickies.You pay a hefty up front fee, but it is worth it. Excellent doctor says it is an allergic reaction, but prescribes Keflex in any case, as well as anti-histamines (these already taken).

Will stay in Sydney overnight to watch the duel in the USA.

Some things to watch:

  2. Same late changes with % of votes in one direction well above any level showing up in other States at any other time.
  3. Same changes occurring, completely coincidentally after voting is claimed to be closed for the evening.
  4. Claims of “for security, everyone must leave” before counting continues.
  5. “Investigations” which involve asking the people who are accused of doing the wrong thing if they have done the wrong thing and then accepting whatever the response is.

When the big vote dumps finally get loaded from Atlanta, Philadelphia, Detroit etc, Republican leads tend to wither away like they did in 2020. For very obvious and logical reasons, notwithstanding your pathetic bleating.

Trump leads in all key battleground states

Ellie Dudley

Donald Trump is now leading Kamala Harris in all key battleground states.
The Republican candidate is ahead of Kamala Harris in Georgia by 3 per cent, where 88 per cent of the vote has been counted, and North Carolina (3 per cent) where 84 per cent of the vote has been counted.
He has taken the lead from Ms Harris in Pennsylvania (3 per cent), where 58 per cent of the vote has been counted. Pennsylvania, the fifth-most populous state in the US, holds 19 crucial electoral votes and stands as the largest of the seven swing states. 
Mr Trump is also leading in Michigan (less than 1 per cent) where 24 per cent of the vote had been counted, and Wisconsin (1 per cent) with 5 per cent of votes having been counted.
In Arizona, he is ahead by less than 1 per cent. Half of the stateโ€™s votes have been counted.

Lol Sanchez.

Trump or one of his surrogates (canโ€™t recall who) said that Rudd will be unacceptable. Heโ€™s fired, I think

Trump said it himself.
Described Kokoda Kev as “not very bright”.
Ouch!
Trump is just as likely to just ring Luigi directly … if he is bothered about Australia at all.

In between checking the action here, I’ve been mostly watching the Daily Wire Election podcast on YT. Thought I might flip over to The Young Turks for a change of pace. It was fantastic – I got there just as Cenk was having a massive head explosion cursing the Dems into hell for all eternity. Even better than his 2016 rant. Definitely the cream on top of a very satisfying afternoon’s viewing. Ah Donald, you champion!

MI margin: ~228k
MI votes left: ~1877k
MI Harris margin required: 56:44

AZ margin: ~16k
AZ votes left: ~1680k
AZ Harris margin required: 50.5:49.5

NV margin: ~37k
NV votes left: ~429k
NV Harris margin required: 54:46

More doable but Harris would need all three of these to hit if one of PA and WI donโ€™t.

Hereโ€™s my summation:
The cities are full of lousy, woke and resentful lunatics.
The USA has been saved by a handful of remaining sensible decent folks in the countryside.

Telling husband – well the West might just survive. The USA will – but the UK, I think, is doubtful. And many European nations are on the brink.

Oz will almost certainly be LNP – with Dutton facing an enormous job to restore any sort of prosperous nation.

We need to support him. One Nation has been gazumped by the courts, the Nationals are trying to handle the rural issues with energy stamping on farmers. So the LNP have to stand up.

The ABC dolefully reports:

Kamala Harris’s election party empties out

By Emily Clark at Howard University in DC

The Kamala Harris event is almost empty now.

If anything, it’s mostly journalists here.

 Campaign and party staffers and VIPs left the seated area a short time ago. There were a lot of hugs. I think it’s fair to say they appeared to be in disbelief at the results so far.

The change in atmosphere here happened really quickly. The mood had been excited and hopeful all night.

The music and performances were keeping supporters’ anxiety at bay, but in a matter of minutes things changed when CNN swept through the swing states about two hours ago. It was just too much red.

Of course, there are still many votes to be counted and states to be won, but the thought of a second Trump presidency was impossible for so many people here tonight, and they’ve left knowing a large proportion of the country has supported that idea.

The bleachers have emptied out, staffers and officials gone home, journalists will no doubt be the last ones here as we all hit our deadlines in different time zones.

As I was chatting to some young Democratic supporters on their walk out a short time ago, they said to me: “It’s Hillary all over again.”

How is that popular vote going? At this time, the only point to late night dumps is to keep the 55 California EC votes from Trump.

Easiest way might be to cook the books there.

I won’t believe it until his lead has survived the witching hour.
At least 7 hours to go before the threat of a Harris Hump dissipates.

There’s shenanigans in Wayne county (Detroit). Counting stopped at 23%. [This was the county where the muslims and Auto Workers Union refused to endorse Kamala].
