mail in vote caused it.. Also they didn't count votes until voting stopped
Re: US Presidential Election 2020 (Live Updates) by kelvindj98: 2:52pm On Nov 04, 2020
Still about 400,000 mail-in ballots yet to be counted in Michigan.

enter illegally? You should have said, They entered legally but refuse to leave before their visa expires.. It is the Mexicans that entered American illegally. True be told, Nigerians are not the only one guilty of this.. Other countries stay back too
So you expect trump to turn a blind eye to this?

Why will you refuse to leave after your visa expires? Blame your people not Trump.

Mail-in ballots should have been counted before the polls closed like in Florida and Ohio.

Correct
But the 0.5% difference is just about 20k+ votes
Detroit with about 300k votes is yet to be counted

Michigan will most likely swing blue at the end of the day

That was the gameplan for democrats reasons why they all kept shouting go and send your votes by mail early. They have been in politics for decades and cant or let me say shouldn't be beaten twice by someone that is just coming into the game. But still dont rule out Trump in this race

Pls explain more I'm confused

The US Presidential election is by what 'they' call an Electoral College and not solely through the popular votes.

Each state has electors which is arrived at by adding the number of their Representatives in the Senate and the House of Rep. An exception is their capital DC, which has 3 electors. The total number of electors is 538.

Now ideally, the popular winner of a state takes all the electors for that state except for two states which has a separate rule. A number of posts on this thread already mentioned that.

The formal process where the 538 electors cast their votes takes place next month.

But irrespective of that, if the popular winner of the different states are known/declared, it is easy to deduce the overall winner of the electoral college, even though they are yet to formally cast their vote since electors in 48 states (out of 50) are to vote for the winner of their states

Republican led legislature in Penn, Michigan and Wisconsin refused to allow mail in ballots and absentee ballots be processed and counted before election day.

They know that's a democratic stronghold and want to suppress and undermine those votes.

I find it very interesting across the last few hours how Trump has stopped tweeting. Feels like America is waking up to a brand new day with possibly new hope and a new leader #elections2020

Biden will definitely win Michigan. I just checked the map. He is trailing by 19,000, after Trump increased it to nearly 30,000. But now all of Trump's counties have been counted while 3 counties leaning toward Biden are yet to be completed.
