2020 US General Election Thread XI: Is It Over Yet?

[San Lumen]

she was unopposed

Why was she unopposed? Someone really dropped the ball on that one.

The democrat dropped out

[Valrifell]

With 42% of the vote in, Biden leads by double-digits in Ohio.

It's still early but I'm surprise it' that far apart: I would have thought it be closer.

I'm also surprised it's this far apart, even with the majority of ballots yet to be counted. The signs aren't looking great for Trump prospects in the midwest, on the whole, while the Southeast is shaping out better than expected.

Mixed bag on the whole, I'd say.

The democrat dropped out

*SIGH*

[Valrifell]

The NYT needle is giving Trump a 77% chance to take Georgia.

[Insaanistan]

The Southeast is going eh for Trump, he’s not exactly defying our low expectations. Additionally, mail in ballots have to be accounted for.

[Nanatsu no Tsuki]

Ok, is it me or is AP saying Biden leads TX?

[Kowani]

With 42% of the vote in, Biden leads by double-digits in Ohio.

Yeah, but most of those are absentee.

[Nobel Hobos 2]

she was unopposed

That makes it worse.

No, that makes it funnier. Utter absence of Deep State operatives to keep her out!

Should be one to watch. Asking everyone baffling questions and subpoenaing left and right.

[Definitely Not Trumptonium]

Wait for it....

I have a feeling Northern Virginia isnt in yet

But .. you're wrong



Northern Virginia just isn't doing enough damage to rural western Virginia.

[Picairn]

Looks like Florida will go to Trump.

[Andsed]

Ok, is it me or is AP saying Biden leads TX?

I see it to. I am doubtful on whether or not it will remain though.

[Valrifell]

Ok, is it me or is AP saying Biden leads TX?

No he is, but barely. Urban areas are reporting.

[New haven america]

Ok, is it me or is AP saying Biden leads TX?

Biden's leading Texas atm and I hope he wins there cause that'd be funny.

[Zurkerx]

Yeah, Trump will win Florida but the Midwest is where the bigger bleeding for Trump; Biden is leading in Delaware County in Ohio btw, an area Democrats haven't won since 1916.

[Nanatsu no Tsuki]

Ok, is it me or is AP saying Biden leads TX?

No he is, but barely. Urban areas are reporting.

Oh wow. Like... no, I’m stunned.

[Insaanistan]

Lynchburg is red?

I wonder why...

[Thanatttynia]

The AP map seems to say that Dallas isn't reporting yet, it's mostly Houston and Austin-related areas.

?

Dallas is almost done.



60.8% Democrat in 2016, for context.

For context, all surrounding rural counties are up Trump %+

The shape of western American counties always gets me, literal squares

[Andsed]

No he is, but barely. Urban areas are reporting.

Oh wow. Like... no, I’m stunned.

Keep in mind this may just be a mirage. It is only around 24% right now.

[Definitely Not Trumptonium]

Interesting.

Something happened in Loudoun?

[Corrian]

Virginia is only at 25% reporting but Trump's lead is worrying.

Its already called for Biden.

[Cannot think of a name]

Yeah, this is normal. States that were pretty much a lock going in get called as soon as the polls close. Like, expect that to happen when California closes even though we have 40 million people.

Bah, Mitch McConnell just got declared the winner. Not unexpected but bah.

Don't you think it looks a wee bit odd to call Virginia when the person you are calling it for is down by 21%?

Places like Vermont and Alabama, I understand. I still think it's a bad practice, but I get it. Calling a state when the person you are calling it for is currently noticeably behind is questionable.

Are you asking me like I'm the one who makes these decisions? Most of the time I don't even get to pick the brand of bottled water.

To the question, they have a lot of information going in and the uneven way that precincts report can give false leads. Most of the time they're making those calls based on a preponderance of evidence towards where the state will go and sure, they can wait until it's mathematically impossible for one candidate to lose, but every other news outlet would have scooped you five hours ago and taken all your viewers.

[Xmara]

IDK if it's been reported here, but Jim Justice won reelection for WV governor.

[Thermodolia]

Im wondering what' going on in Virginia. Polls had Biden up by a wide margin. I guessing its rural votes.

It’s exactly that. None of the cities have come in

Biden is ahead by 300,000 votes in Ohio and 140,000 in PA

[The Derpy Democratic Republic Of Herp]

With 42% of the vote in, Biden leads by double-digits in Ohio.

Virginia is only at 25% reporting but Trump's lead is worrying.

Its already called for Biden.

Ye boi

[Andsed]

Yep Biden just lost the lead in Texas. Called it.
