(7,624 posts)It would be an early night.
Worried about shenanigans, particularly here in south Florida both before and after closing but hopefully I'm just being paranoid.

(12,153 posts)Cautiously optimistic here. One of the most hopeful signs is the expansion of the map. Forcing Rs to compete in so many states spreads their resources thin and lessens the odds of one corrupt state being able to toss it to the Barrett Court.
If Joe wins by 1% he isn't going to "win" Florida.
He needs to win by 3-4 points or so to get the call.

(11,517 posts)I know it's fun to think about their hurt feelings, but from a practical standpoint we just really need to maximize our gains in the Senate and in state offices nationwide. THEN we can start getting the things done that will help families and working people.

(9,263 posts)so you know there are a whole bunch in texas, florida and arizona doing the same and these are NOT caught by pollsters

(53,061 posts)Surprisingly once they flip they are 100% in, quite bitter about Trump.
He reads me their posts and we laugh at how intense they are.

(9,959 posts)And Texas is a tie! Thats why Republicans are trying so hard to get a court to throw out those 127,000 drive-in votes in Houston. Theres another hearing today.

(20,709 posts)I've pretty much given up on doing anything but worrying about the election for the next two days. I'm cautiously optimistic. Hopefully I'll be celebrating with a bunch of drunk New Yorkers outside of Trump Tower in about 36 hours...

(68,539 posts)I believe on the cusp of ridding ourselves of the worst president in history. I have laid in some goodies and various alcohol supplies-hubs and I will be watching. I will look for you to say...we did it on election night around 10-11 PM I think!.

(26,063 posts)And, even though we don't need them, I want at least one of them, which would probably be GA.
I want:
The Big Orange
The Big Peach
The Big Lexington BBQ
and
The Big Brisket BBQ
I want ALL of them!

(43,115 posts)The rest look doubtful to me, this morning. After 2018, who can trust a Florida poll? They could be off by 6-7 points.
lark
(23,083 posts)I have lived here for 48 years, in 2 different shifts, and the FL repug vote stealing machine is well oiled. We can't count on my state, too many ultra rich repugs have greased the wheels too often for me to have any hope. We need to win in enough other places that when the traditional fuckery is done in FL and WI, Joe will still win. I know that will happen. My only question is will the win be big enough to deter drumpf rw fuckery.

(2,690 posts)The actual shape of it will depend on how quickly and how badly the early returns are for Trump. I'm afraid people are going to killed and maimed.
Trump may flee the country. He is definitely not going to refuse to leave the WH, but he will seek a position where he can stir up racist violence and keep his loyalists angry and violent -- maybe a TV show broadcast from Russia?

(64 posts)while these polls are mostly favorable to Biden and I just checked FiveThirtyEight and are already factored in there, Nate Silver considers this pollster a lower accuracy one rating it B/C level.
grantcart
(53,061 posts)Pollster publishing polls (especially the last one) trying to benchmark polls that will match voting to build credibility in the future.
All of the results are credible, but a little too perfect.
Mr. Sparkle
(2,930 posts)John Heilemann just said in the poll of polls that Trump is plus 2 in Florida and that Biden is more likely to win Georgia, according to the campaigns internal polling.

(7,220 posts)We get PA, AZ or NC and it's over. We only need one. And that's without FL and the insanity it brings.
