Any news from TX, GA, AZ, NC

Guys

Very nervous about Florida. GOP has overtaken about 160 K and not enough Dems coming out. Will they come out in couple of hours? Hope independents go overwhelming for Joe.

How are other states?

[ChazII]

1. Arizona has already begun counting early ballots. n/t

[sfstaxprep]

2. On The Bright Side

Joe doesn't Need Florida. But Drumpf does, so he should be terrified that it's even close.

[apnu]

7. Yup, if Biden gets FL, this is over.

Florida, interestingly enough has been counting early votes since 22 days before today. (Seen at the link below.)

I expect Florida to start announcing votes as normal.

https://www.ncsl.org/research/elections-and-campaigns/absentee-and-mail-voting-policies-in-effect-for-the-2020-election.aspx

PA, on the other hand, couldn't start counting early votes until 7 AM today. I expect they will announce much later tonight... really late.

So if we see FL go to Biden Trump is done.

If we see FL go to Trump, no big deal, we don't need that state. If NC and/or GA flip, Biden also wins (plus MI, and WI are needed there)

3. Do you have to tell poll workers in Florida if you're a Democrat

or a rePuke in a general election? That seems very strange to me. Why would they need to know?

[OriginalGeek]

25. I didn't tell them but

when they look you up your voter ID card is on their screen so they see it anyway. Could have avoided that by filling out the mail-in ballot and dropping it in the collection box.

[Glorfindel]

30. I see. Thanks a lot

for the explanation.

[OriginalGeek]

31. any time!

4. Texas Tribune reports..

After 9.7 million people voted early, some experts believe Texas might be on a path to potentially surpass 12 million voters when all is said and done.

Also from Adam Bennett: To the 1 million or so registered voters in Harris Co. still needing to cast their ballot:
You can go to ANY of the 800+ polling sites (check locations/wait times below

At 11 a.m., more than 75,000 votes have been cast in Harris County so far on #ElectionDay

Harris Co. Clerk says he'll release the unofficial tally as usual: Early voting + mail ballots (1.4M+) around 7p, the rest of the results as they come in. @cghollins
: “We will not have an election week here in Harris County, we will have an Election Night!

[apnu]

9. Do you think Texas will flip?

The volumes in Texas are insane. How many of these "new" voters could be for Trump? How popular is he in Texas for real?

I wonder that many of these new voters are Dems motivated to go to the polls when Texas for us is often so depressing when voting.

[ananda]

14. I have no idea only because..

I got my hopes up for Beto defeating Cruz,
only to be dashed!

However, here's hoping!!!

5. Before you totally freak on FL

Scott Rasmussens last poll had Ind voters breaking hard to Biden AND 10% Republican defection. So say of the 2M early cast Vite you have 200k Rs voting Biden and maybe 50k Ds voting Trump. That squares things. Then you give 10% of Indies to Biden and that gives Biden a 200k lead. Then if you really want to go crazy, take another 100k of Rs abstaining or voting third party.


In other words, f*cking close.

[lagomorph777]

11. And Rasmussen is hard right-wing

Add +5D to anything from that outfit.

[getagrip_already]

6. Where are you getting that?

I see only 50K more GOP votes for TODAY only. They are still only at 52% of todays vote, and they NEED to be over 65% to catch up to our early vote advantage.

And Miami Dade hasn't even reported yet.

8. This poster for the last week has been posting

this type of fear posting.

[Aepps22]

18. Pretty Much

Seen these posts for the last couple of weeks.

[AmericanCanuck]

19. IKR?

[obamanut2012]

24. 100% this

And, some of us on here have actually worked EV polls the past two weeks and have told them they are 100% wrong, and they insist WE are wrong.

At this point it is just annoying, but they are scaring some posters and they need to stop now.

[lagomorph777]

13. Yeah, it's a load of crap.

OP is "concerned."

[MineralMan]

10. What is your source for this?

Do you even have a legitimate source?

[kansasobama]

12. Thanks my fellow DUers

You know why I am freaking out. Dems are underperforming in Florida and I just don't get it. It is life and death and all I see is GOP are ahead. Just want it to go for us. Hope independents help. Some of you helped me freak a tad bit less.

Also Florida has perfected the art of suppression. How many Miami Dade ballots will arrive from USPS tonight

Thanks

[getagrip_already]

16. BS on the underperforming!

The gop is underperforming. They need 65%os todays vote. They are 52%.

They are way behind the firewall right now.

[Sunsky]

17. Posters presented you with data contrary to your assertion

about FL and you ignored it to post more doom and gloom. I know where this post belongs.

[obamanut2012]

27. You are 100% wrong

But, you know that.

You have been told by those of us on the ground here you are wrong, but you ignore it.

It isn't working, so stop.

[Demsrule86]

15. More doom and gloom?

[MFM008]

20. PS

we can win without Florida.

[mcar]

21. Hmmm, and I'm reading big turnout

In Broward and Dade.

[obamanut2012]

23. It's a refrain with the OP

Over the last few days. I'm on the ground here, and did poll work here in SOFL, and what they generally say is either 100% wrong, or creatively skewed.

We are kicking ass here in SOFL.

[kansasobama]

28. Thanks and great

I had some positive calls to Texas, of all the places.

[mcar]

36. I've noticed

Thanks for your work in SFL!

[obamanut2012]

22. lolz

[kansasobama]

26. Hmm we all have the same objective

Sorry some see it as gloom and doom. Far from it. Just worried. We all have the same objective-some are over-confident, less confident, nervous, brave, foolhardy, all strands.

Anyway, here is a source:

Link to tweet

Feel free to comment

[obamanut2012]

29. 1. He isn't from FL 2. he isn't an actual analyst 3. there are zero numbers

The numbers that are REAL and real time are OPPOSITE of what you say.

Typical for this OP. All of it.

Stop it.

[kansasobama]

33. Okay thanks for the info

Is this a Trump person based on your experience?

[Aepps22]

32. Stay Calm

I understand that you're nervous but remain hopeful and stay positive.

[kansasobama]

34. Thanks for the support

I am sure Biden will win. I want Biden to smash him so that the country never comes this close to dictatorship.

[dustyscamp]

35. Wish I had posts like this in my Cali thread

[mcar]

37. Why should we care what this guy says?

[Renew Deal]

38. That tweet says nothing.

It’s BS.
