US PRESIDENTIAL NOMINEE Joe Biden cast his ballot in the US presidential race today in Delaware, six days before the end of a turbulent campaign pitting him against incumbent Donald Trump.
The former vice president entered the Delaware State Building in Wilmington where he joined the record number of Americans who have voted early or by mail – 74 million as of today – as people seek to avoid crowded polling stations during the Covid-19 pandemic.
Shortly before voting Biden said he hoped he and other Democrats on the ballot would get elected so that they can “change things” and “make it better” for everyday Americans.

Former president Barack Obama will join Biden on the campaign trail on Saturday in Michigan, the Democratic candidate’s team said, as Biden deploys his top surrogate in the closing days of the election.
In their first in-person campaign appearance together since Biden won the Democratic nomination, the popular Obama will join his former vice president in the critical swing state “to discuss bringing Americans together to address the crises facing the country,” the campaign said in a statement.
Obama in the past week has appeared solo for Biden at drive-in rallies in Pennsylvania and Florida – two states that President Donald Trump won in 2016 but are up for grabs this year - warning Biden supporters against complacency and urging them to vote early.

What’s the betting he voted TRUMP!
@colm mc sweeney: He voted for George
@colm mc sweeney: one of the dum-best comments of the day. Go you
@D H: he voted for kanye…..
@colm mc sweeney: if Trump had any sense of decency he would have voted Biden but probably didn’t happen.
@Will: Not even Kanye will vote for Kanye
With some people afraid to voice their opinions over there, for fear of being labelled racist among other things, don’t be surprised to see Trump win. That’s when the Civil War starts!
@Cupid Stunt: Your comment will be taking down shortly
@Maurice O Neill: *taken. Learn to spell. You even got your own surname wrong.
@Rocky: what’s the notion of the silent majority behind trump? They’re literally the loudest most ostentatious and bad mannered beings out there.
@The Guy is Here: soy much?
@The Guy is Here: as in, I think for all the obvious and loud trump fans, there are a lot that either support him or equally, disagree with a lot of what Biden has said. The BLM movement is part of that. I think people will vote for trump but not admit it
@Keith Richardson: poor spelling is an indicator of poor education and a lack of reading. I don’t really trust the opinion of those who don’t educate themselves. In the context of someone who is trying to sway people’s opinion on who should be the next POTUS, I do believe educating yourself is critical.
@Brian Ó Dálaigh: it’s a cheap shot and it shows your ignorance
@Rocky: Polls show Biden gonna win by a landslide…. he gonna turn USA a sea of Blue and undo the damage by Trumpy.
@Keith Richardson: just like you, he only ever comments on Trump or Catholicism articles, usually in a manner designed to be provocative. This leads me to believe he isn’t who he says he is. I don’t consider such comments against trolls as cheap shots.
@Rocky: they will but Biden has it in the bag. All the polls have him wayy ahead.
@Brian Ó Dálaigh: take your tin foil hat off ye sil ly sausage
@Keith Richardson: tin foil hats are reserved for those who believe in conspiracy theories, as you would know if you did even the slightest bit of reading. My opinion on the above commenter is simply a best guess based on his interactions with others and not some unfounded belief. Unlike those who wear tin foil hats, I am open to being corrected. However, since he never answers those who question him, I doubt that such would be forthcoming. If asked the colour of the sky, I am quite sure, based on his previous interactions, that he would respond with “Trump is great.”
@Alan Gee: Like you I don’t want the Orange fella to win but unlike you I don’t blindly trust the polls.
@Brian Ó Dálaigh: and he would be right
@Rocky: Yes! Worst case scenario, Trump could win, its very close,
Let’s make America Great Again.
Get out and vote!
@The Guy is Here: and yet they aren’t the ones tearing cities up over the last few months.
@Brian Ó Dálaigh: How many times did you spellcheck your comment before hitting send?
Donald all the way. Just watched Fox News and they are predicting The President will win Georgia by 9 points
@Maurice O Neill: from Fox News
“A recent Georgia poll shows the candidates are essentially tied.
A Monday Atlanta Journal-Constitution poll of likely voters found Biden at 47% and Trump at 46%, within the poll’s margin of error. The Real Clear Politics average for the state also shows the candidates neck and neck, with less than half a point separating them.”

@Diaspora’d: Trump all the way
@Maurice O Neill: As soon as you mentioned Fox News your comment was invalid
@Maurice O Neill: from Fox News
Fox News
Fox News
And the bible said Jesus was amazing. Same energy
@Cupid Stunt: More like “as soon as Fox News was mentioned your comment was clearly a poor attempt at trolling…”
@Maurice O Neill: All the way to court.
@Diaspora’d: anymore of them articles dude I must say I’m loving the first 500 of them keep them coming lol
@The Guy is Here: And he was amazing
@Maurice O Neill: totally bias. Polls all showing Biden way ahead.
@Keith Richardson: no need for name-calling. Thats what the polls say.
@Keith Richardson: why does anyone bother reply to the trolls here anymore ?
@ahhhhh its: ya. Trumpy is finished.
@ahhhhh its: I hear ye brother Alan Gee is something else
@Diaspora’d: he also doesn’t need to win Georgia most likely…https://projects.fivethirtyeight.com/2020-election-forecast/ this site is excellent
@Keith Richardson: but everyone says he is done for. so it must surely be so.
@Diaspora’d: seems they may have a solution for tightening polls
https://youtu.be/yM3TO6OkPws
@Cupid Stunt: and that is the left’s problem. Anything they dont agree with and they block it out then wonder why they cant figure out what went wrong.
@Diaspora’d: Fox news is hardly an unbiased poll. lol … seriously?? Did Sean H conduct it?
Trump will be the one term president, what a foot note in history.
What’s funny is the Simpson did predict Trumps presidency but also the fact that when he left the role he left the economy in tatters.
He’s done exactly that.
Mass unemployment
Massive amounts of deaths
More national debt
@Barry: Fake news merchant
@Maurice O Neill: Point out what is fake about Barry’s comment
@Jim Beatty: poor Mo is suffering crom Trump Deluded Supporter, his fake account will disappear next week.
At least he will get one vote
@WreckDefier: painfully stooopid
But who built the cages Joe??
@Keith Richardson: Who filled them Donny?
@D H: No is the answer to your question
@Keith Richardson: Donny is still filling them
@D H: wish he’d swap a few criminals out for you and your buddies because you clearly hate America noting but complaining about how bad the place is
@Keith Richardson: might be something to do with…..how bad the place is?
@Keith Richardson: I think America is or will be a great place again once they get rid of the Great Orange Divider….. In my lifetime every Potus, Red or Blue, who faced a national crisis tried to unite the country to rise against adversity together, then along came orange Donny, and the country is divided by hate. He fuels it. He had a chance to lead, a chance to own the crisis but he blew it and now it owns him. His one term will go down as a failure, not because of what he achieved or didnt achieve, but because he is a hapless leader, a reality show Tee shirt at best. What a waste….
@Keith Richardson: Come on! America is an unruly kip. Run by a dirty fecking little get. But soon we will have Biden balance restored to the universe and we can all sleep soundly again. Till that mad daughter Ivanka one runs in 2024 and makes that gob***** Kushner first gentleman. Not a high school exam between them.
@OnlyHereForTheComments: who runs your state will be the reason your not happy and I’m sure your not going to admit it’s a Democrat
@D H: your entitled to your opinions but that’s all they are because I hate to break it to you not everyone feels the way you feel about our Great president
@Paul Whitehead: so much hate in you you’ve allowed your emotions to control you so sad how weak people are these days
Senate have now said all postal votes must be in by Election Day or they won’t count. All the Dems running around screaming at their supporters to present themselves immediately at polling stations. Funny how COVID isn’t such a big threat now that their political jobs are on the line. Hypocrisy at its finest.
More fake news from you …comment being taken down in 3…..2…..
@Crispy Brown: senate can’t do that .
@Crispy Brown: you can be sure many of the blue wave voters were in early.
There is a huge assumption that trump is gonna walk this.
@Crispy Brown: If you’re going to make up stuff, you could at least let it have even the semblance of reality….
The Senate has no power whatsoever to dictate how postal votes are handled – that’s up to each individual state to set the rules for themselves
@Crispy Brown: I’m betting it’s Russian interference…..
@Crispy Brown: Fake news. Even todays available news reports expose the Supreme Court has allowed more states to allow votes to be counted after the official election day.
C’mon man.
He probably forgot who he voted for .
He voted for Kanye
I hope Trump wins. Not because I like him. I think he’s an eejit. But I want everyone to go crazy and lose their minds. I wanna watch the world burn.
@Jerry Jeff Gomgat: me too but it won’t be the whole world just the liberals and they only exist in 1st world country’s strange one that isn’t it??
@Keith Richardson: they are everywhere
I think America could fall apart, which ever way it goes.
How are they going to fix the postel ballots that were set on fire. What happens in that situation
have your say
