OK, what's going on at 270towin? They have Biden at 278!!!

The consensus "starting" interactive map shows Biden at 278, already winning.



Not sure I believe it, and I don't know what state(s) have flipped from red or tossup to blue of the top of my head. Maybe Wisconsin?

We need to keep working though, I want 400+ EV this time, no chance for them to cheat.

Focus on FL and AZ to get to 330 and then Ohio and NC to get over 350. Spend some money in TX to help in the congressional seats..... but the important thing is to nail down the win, winning big matters less than winning at this point. Lock down the lower hanging fruit.

This is why trump is freaking out (more than usual)

He knows he is toast.

And he knows he is going to die in jail.

On that map, they still haven't called AZ yet, which I expect to turn blue this cycle.

405!!!!

Okay, I'll settle down. Lots of work to be done, lots of time left.

Last week Texas was blue by 6 points. This week a new one must have popped up.

On May 18th it was 372 D to 141 R, 25 undecided.

Yes, it's the current "consensus" map. I think it's great.

I just want people to stay focused, and don't get complacent like so many did in '16.

We need max turnout.

So far, that is firming up in our direction. Everything else is gravy and makes a Senate takeover look very promising.

Go Blue!

I keep trying to remind people of that.

There was no Trump landslide!

We outnumber them!

With some due diligence we should be able to flip them back. Biden seems to be leading currently, which is good news.

Need to keep at it, though. No rest for the weary. We need every vote.
