Having states like SC and Alabama help decide who the candidate is just seems dumb to me though when the only states that matter are states like PA and FL. Realistically it should be exclusively swing states if Democrats wanted to maximize winning by that logic, but I'm a random jackass on the internet just making suppositions so, lol | ||

Early votes and processed mail ballots, which are likely to be relatively stronger for Democrats, are expected first. Election Day results, which are likely to be relatively stronger for Republicans, will be reported over the course of the night. Postmarked ballots are accepted until Nov. 12, but officials have said they expect 97 percent of ballots to be reported on election night. Per their website. | ||

They counted a lot more votes and it didn't move all that much yet. I'm assuming they count the election day votes first and the mail-in votes are still outstanding. They don't just call states haphazardly. | ||

Anyone got insight on that one? saw a report that it was HEAVILY early vote there so far, not sure how they know tho. I'm also interested in the house, seems hst the GOP may claw some back. also watching VA as a curiosity. | ||

There was a chance he would at least surround himself with competent people and do a good job despite being a bad person. I truly can't understand how it is close this year though. While people might not like Trump, they don't like what the Dems are offering even more. How is that hard to understand? By the way looks like I will be right about FL with Trump at +3%. | ||

I'm just a bit surprised that a 5.3% deficit can be made up with less than 30% of the vote remaining. | ||

It's easy to look at a candidate doing poorly and claim someone else would do better, but in reality that's pretty much a baseless assumption. I voted Biden. I'd vote Trump over Bernie 100% of the time. Bernie 2024. Things aren’t particularly predictable, I mean would anyone have said 10 years ago a Trump that is beyond satire being President would be an eventuality that could possibly occur? That said, the pathway doesn’t look exactly promising. | ||
