    Quickest way to poor house betting in running what you see on tv is 200 yards behind real time

    Congratulations, you have officially "Done a Wednesday" (a newly developed slang term for any action that involves reducing something by half).

    Is that because of the way they counted the trump votes yesterday?

    What happens if they both die of old age before the result?

    That's an easy one - I know the answer!

    They get to have another election, including the 6 week build up :)

    Only joking :D

    The answer is actually “nobody knows”. There’s no rules for what happens if someone dies between the election and the electoral college vote. It would probably be up to individual states to decide what they do. Would be a mess, either way.

    There's enough skulkduggery in the US elections without tainting the integrity of the BBS vote!!

    Not sure if someone else has said this... Piers Morgan granted is a bit of a tit to put it mildly but he was asked on Radio 2 about a month ago and he predicted if it came down to being close and postal votes proved crucial expect court cases.

    And that c.nut would know about court cases. I imagine Giuliani will be straight on the blower.

    You obviously didn't see their very public falling out? I'm sure they're still friends but doubt Tiers for Piers gets a phone call these days
