Hmmm, the original version was actually more nuanced:

“I think there will be a peaceful transfer of power,” economic adviser Larry Kudlow told CNBC this morning.

I haven't watched the video. He just looks like a ghost.

A bit of a downer post so sorry for ruining the party. 
 

There seems to be around 25,000 provisional votes to be counted from PA. These are votes that were originally made in person but the voter didn’t have the valid ID so they were put on hold. The bad side is that in person voting was mainly going to Trump.

There might be enough postal votes to mean that they don’t matter but it’s back to squeaky bum time. 
 

There’s also been a bit of a mess up in Nevada with quantities remaining. Still a lot of rural votes coming in. It should still stay Biden but won’t be finding out any time soon.

Aren’t there still 30K+ mail in votes in Pittsburg that can’t be counted until later today? And they will skew heavily to Biden. It’s fine, he’s going to get over the line!

Biden has stretched his lead to 13k in PA, with more to come in and be looked from mail in ballots. It would have to be a big stretch for Trump to come back win the state now.

There should be enough Biden mail in votes to beat the Trump gains from the provisionals. 
 

But that will probably mean that the overall margin of victory probably won’t go past the 1% mark needed to avoid the recount which is going to add a lot of delay before we get a final result. 
 

Trump is still on his way out but the party is a little later.

Channel the 100% crew. Trump is losing this election, ironically by the 'landslide' margin he beat Hilary Clinton by in 2016.

If Nevada and Penn go to Trump (not saying they will!) can Biden still win?

Ooh Bob Casey to the rescue. A lot of those provisional votes are from people who wanted to vote by mail but were unable to. Might not be as Trump heavy then.

Yes, if Biden gets Arizona and Georgia.

It’s been a long few days. I feel like I have to keep going though until victory is certain.

Excellent thanks! Amount of coverage I've watched these past few days I should really know the answer by now...

It's so bloody close isn't it. I feel almost elated but just don't want to count my chickens.

I’m thinking North Carolina is still in play. 
 

Take a look at these exit poll figures

There are significantly more female voters who prefer to vote Biden. 
 

NC is still at 95% in. The most votes outstanding are from a county which is currently standing at 60% in favour of Biden.

Am I being delusional and should I be taken to the infirmary?

I think it’ll be close but I think Trump will clinch that one unfortunately.
