What is going on in the US election

[cromwell]

Only 3 seats in the House of Representatives have been declared in the lat 24 hours and sod all in the Senate.

Are all the tellers Democrats who only studied grievances at school and missed out on the maths and counting bit? Or maybe inbred Republicans with 6 fingers on each hand so that the adding up is a bit difficult.

Either way, the fun is going out of this election

As Tom Jones sang " it's not unusual "

While election result delays do take place in other countries, the US stands out in terms of the length of the delays - largely owing to its decentralised system. 
The results of Israel's 1 November election, for example, were announced on 3 November. The second-round of Brazil's general elections on 30 October were known on the same day. 
Of European countries, Sweden is considered one in which high voter turnout and close margins often drag results out over a period of several days. The preliminary results of the country's 11 September general election were not available until 15 September, with official results following about a week later. 
In 2019, it took over a month for the results of Indonesia's 17 April presidential election to be announced on 21 May - which was actually ahead of schedule. Vote counting at the country's more than 800,000 voting stations is largely conducted by hand in view of the public.

I heard they've shipped Yaxley Lennon over there to make sure there is no funny business. Sleepy Joe seems pucker, maybe he already knows the result, got an email 2 weeks ago!

No wonder there are allegations of malfeasance!
