We all have different opinions, it would be a funny old world if we were all nodding donkeys...
Thank you for a sensible response and also for pointing out that it seems to be considered okay for others here to "slaughter" a poster if opinions differ.
Strangely that acceptance runs one way only and there is no misundersting just how I was described.
But moving on ..................
Despite assertions on both sides it is quite obvious that this election has been a very close-run thing.
Not only are recounts necessary but it is the press who are deciding a winner prematurely because in addition there are many votes still to be counted (depending where you read it seems that somewhere upward of 6 million votes are still to be counted, possibly 16 million), even in states where the media has announced a winner.
Does it look like Biden has won?
Yes.
But when the GSA insist upon the need for a clear winner and say themselves that this is not yet possible, what they say is what counts.
Not what the media says.
It has taken until December to announce before, as recently as the year 2000 too so don't get too worked up now.
I have said time and again that I have no skin in this "game"; I don't much care who becomes POTUS because despite allegations it won't make any real difference to us here in the UK.
From where I stand each has too many problems to make them truly acceptable as POTUS and I feel sorry for citizens of the USA for being in this position.
But those who do care should probably wait and see who is officially declared President please before proclaiming such exuberant allegiance.
