Well, one can always hope. I've heard the Michigan and Ohio SCs flipped to the Democrats this year so maybe we'll have some progress there, as it happened in NC.

I think the house elections should give you a general idea of how that would play out. In which case, the democrats would have a slight lead. However, this year a lot of congressional candidates outperformed Trump in their districts, so, if they elected president that way, Biden would probably win by a bit more than Democrats won the house.

Wondering what would have happened if the vaccine news had come out a week ago. It definitely shouldn't have made a difference (I think literally anyone in office would have funded vaccine research and Pfizer actually was not a part of operation warpspeed), but people tend to give the president credit or blame for whatever happens regardless of whether it's rational. 

Either way, amazing results that will hopefully get us back to normal faster than expected. Huge debt of gratitude owed to the scientists and doctors who made this happen.

Need to give Biden an actual chance first before you start complaining on apparant lies... Because the world gave Trump a chance despite him lying about:

That massive wall that never got built and Mexico never paid for it.
Hillary never got jailed.
Didn't repeal and replace obamacare.
Didn't deport all immigrants.
Didn't fix the debt problem. (It actually got worst.)
Didn't ditch Nato.
Didn't reinstate torture.
Trump didn't invest heavily on infrastructure to repair and modernize the US's antiquated airports, roads and rail.
Didn't bring American troops home and end the "endless wars".

And lets not start on Trumps downplaying and lying about COVID since the start of this year either... Jesus christ, what a mess.
No wonder he got booted out on his ass, deservedly so.

I am talking about the land yes because people live on it. All people deserve some sort of representation if their political views are say 100% opposite to the winning party.

However, I ain't talking about 100s of areas.  Virginia for example has 13 seats, you would have 13 areas. They don't even have to be the same size. In Australia they try to group them roughly by the same population size within that state, so the country areas may be 5x bigger than say a city area. Every now and then redraw the boundaries based on population movements and growths. 

So using Virginia's counties as an example,  On the west side maybe say 15 counties make up one seat, where the city is, it could be another seat just for the metro area.

However if this is too complex to work out and because of america's history perhaps it easier to do it the other way as Ka-pi96 pointed out, maybe just split the seats based on percentage on the total vote. 

Agree with you that everyone who wins should get a chance to show what they can do.

Sadly politics seems to have become more and more personal. The media is majorly to blame for that as they encourage divide y party instead of policy. Lot of people draw a line in the sand and are salty. They can no longer look at the policies objectively and make a decision.  The only real difference I see in America is the number of voters changing each election because of personal hate of someone so they want to make sure that person loses.  

Even when Trump won, lot of Democrat devotees kept trash talking him for 4 years. Now you will see the Republican devotees will do the same.

One great thing as you know that we have in Australia is they mandate us to vote. That way the only way a party changes power is if enough people decide they want change and swing their vote. Even in the last few years it is clear that most people are sick of the major parties (with their bullshit musical chairs being the biggest problem) and have been voting for greens or independents.  It forces them to both look at each other and go shit maybe we gone too far with our views and then next election they readjust to something closer what the people want.

In regards to the polls, the media did the best they could with the data they were given. The methodologies weren't good enough, sure, but it is especially difficult, when a candidate shows up, who is so different from what has been seen before.

For sure, the media need to improve on objectivity and limit bias.

But if you want to cure bias, you don't do it with worse bias, as is the case with these social media frauds.

I honestly think, far from an underwhelming candidate, Trump was lightning in a bottle for Republicans with how many non-college-educated Whites, invisible to the polls, that he managed to turn out with his firebrand populism. Even then it wasn't enough to win the popular vote, not even close. But it was to flip the electoral college once because they are overrepresented precisely at the states he needed.

Trump was willing to pander to kinds of voters that other republicans had too much integrity to pander to. And, he was a pathological liar, so he was willing to tell them what they wanted to hear. 

Oh, I certainly don't, but its been reported by several other sources, including President elect Biden.
