Election Day [Week][Month[s]] [Year] 2020 follow-along thread

Illinois has gone blue (again, no surprise at all).

When they are projecting these wins, are they considering that a lot of the absentee ballots are from Democrats? Or are they just assuming a split proportional to the votes counted today?

The county in Texas to keep an eye on is Tarrant. (That’s where Fort Worth is.) It went 51-43 for Trump and it’s a valuable county and interesting - it’s urban-ish but kinda white. No reports from it yet but a surprising Biden showing there could make Texas interesting.

Really good numbers coming in for Biden in Texas. Denton and Williamson county both went hard for Trump in 2016 but with 85% and 95% of the vote in they are both strongly going for Biden. By 6-7% of the total vote reported. Harris County (Houston) is showing stronger numbers as well.

I can’t believe I’m saying this but it looks like Texas will be close. Hope this holds.

Mike, I don’t think ABC is saying these things.

I corrected myself above. Try and keep up with my mistakes LOL

Rather, I should say I was corrected and asknowledged

McConnell will keep his seat. Fuck.

I was wondering the same thing. Between early voting and mail-in ballots, this election could be a very wild ride.

CNN just called Kentucky for Loser Donald.

It looks like the vast majority of the vote so far are from Dallas and Denton (a large suburb of Dallas) counties. Biden is running ahead of Clinton’s 2016 numbers in both counties.

Arghh!

I think I despise him more than Trump.

About Florida: 538 gave Biden a 69% chance or so as I remember. If Biden loses it, my confidence will not shall we say, be increased as to their other calls.

Loser Donald also, predictably, wins Tennessee.

If Biden loses Florida, it will be due to losing votes in Miami. My guess is the large amount of actual fake news targeting Spanish speaking only voters is to blame.

McConnell is the worst.

I want Biden to win TX because I want him to win big - but now I want him to win TX because I want to see you eat a bug. Make it a big, fat beetle. :smiley:

North Carolina is looking very, very slim indeed.

NC has 55% in and Biden is up by 12.

I’m watching this Google map from the AP. They’re saying at this moment 85 to Biden and 55 to Trump.

Texas just turned pink from light blue as I was writing this. Florida is pink.

I’m scared again. I told my wife that for some reason, I can not control my panic. I just can not get through this night.
