Yesterday marks 2 weeks to Election Day. Once all the legal battles are done this is my final prediction. Trump will be able to get just enough ballots thrown out in Key states to win by a slim margin.




Don’t agree? I don’t claim to be an Oracle. Post up your 270towin map for discussion.

lets try to keep this on topic about maps and not sling too much shit at each other

So here's the map before edits



Here's my edits below. Ohio is gonna be CLOSE somehow. Florida is gonna be close d/t large elderly and minority populations. GA large minority rallied to vote so also could be toss up. Interestingly Texas is closer than normal d/t minorities but I'd say it goes red. NC is surprisingly close too. Even my lifelong republican relatives there are questioning trump and still undecided. PA is gonna be close.



If you make me choose an outcome, this is off of recent polls and all the ancillary articles I've read. I'm predicting a surprise in NC and FL but could easily go the other way. Looks like a landslide but many of the blue wins are close in battleground states. Also predicting a close Jaime Harrison senate win in SC over Lindsay Graham.

I'm pretty confident on this one. The only one that can go either way for me is Iowa. Georgia will be close too but I think it'll be red again.

Prediction: Trump will suffer one of the worst electoral losses in U.S. election history (he won't break 115, Biden won't drop below 420), with a staggering 7 million vote loss on the popular and Trump will still bitch about it being rigged.

Bonus Points Prediction: There will be a mass shooting at a polling site on election day by either an incel Trump supporter who believes in Q Anon or a Trump supporter who is just being a Trump supporter.

As much as you annoy me, I actually think this is fairly accurate.

Although I think there will be a shocking amount of third-party votes because people don't understand the fact that a third party can't win.

As for the Bonus Points Prediction, spot-on, that is actually likely

Well I'm partially right. Trump is bitching about it being rigged and Biden is on track to score 7 million in the popular.

3 states off and off by 29 electoral votes (probably). In a year that nothing went as expected, I take this as a win.

"FRAUD MAIL IN BALLOTS" jk lmao.

Honestly it's impressive that Trump expanded his base by 5mil this election considering how much of a dumpster fire his term has been. Speaks to his showmanship for sure (or the stupidity of 5 million people, depends how you look at it)
