John King just pointed out that at this hour in 2020, Trump was leading GA by 220,000. ---

NPR says D Stein took the governorship from R Robinson. Which I would hope would not be too surprising. ---

> [@Smapti](#): > > John King just pointed out that at this hour in 2020, Trump was leading GA by 220,000. “At this hour”? Big fucking deal. It doesn’t matter unless we know apples-to-apples in terms of counties reporting, and the % that they’ve reported. ---

What’s up DC, get your act together. The polls closed 3 hours ago, we know your going to go for Harris by double digits, what’s the hold up? ---

And now he’s leading by 210,000. I’m not sure that difference is enough for Harris. ---

CNN: Harris projected for Delaware. With a whopping 3 EVs. Ummm … New York? ---

This is 2016 redux. VA slow to call indicating weakness across the board. Needle up to 282 EV for Tump. Only hope is super-narrow victories in the blue wall: basically 2016 with just enough suburban and urban voters to change the outcome. ---

And so far it looks like Harris is running behind Biden’s numbers in NC. Not good. ---

NC not looking good for Harris. At least one county flipped to Trump from '20. ---

Kornacki / MSNBC : Union County, NC with 94% reporting TFG at 62.3%, was at 61.4% in 2020. Anson County, NC with 92% reporting TFG at 51.0%, was at 47.5% in 2020 (“flip” to the bad). Vance County, NC with 89% reporting TFG at 43.5%, was at 40.0% in 2020. You get the picture. Not good. ---

I never thought Harris was gonna win NC anyway. If she can continue early returns in PA and MI, and doesn’t lose Virginia, it’s quite possible she could win… 270 to 268. And if that happens, hoo, boy. ---

Wisconsin made my heart leap. Harris supposedly down by a lot, but only 20,000 votes in so far, from 2 red counties. ---
