[MaryMagdaline]

14. TY for those tweets!!

[The Velveteen Ocelot]

4. I hope somebody calls it soon.

[Meowmee]

5. I was just watching cnn for a bit and they said he was only ahead 7000 now,

I hope this is correct. I am exhausted maybe, I was confused.

[The Velveteen Ocelot]

6. Maybe they didn't include the 9,000 or so from Kenosha.

[Meowmee]

7. Maybe

Each channel has such different results and the announcers are so stupid for the most part. The man explaining the counts was good though, lol but he kept getting interrupted. I better get some sleep.

19. Last I saw, Kornacki was updating Biden from +11,000 to +20,000

WI is looking very good.

[octoberlib]

8. CNN needs to update their numbers.

[Meowmee]

10. Yep

[octoberlib]

13. Pretty sure there's a lag. MSNBC has been behind calling states all night. Probably because

they have to verify.

[Tommymac]

16. They NEED a Horse Race. Ratings and all.

They are not going to call it until they can wring out every last Advertising $$$$$.

Fucking MSM.

[gordianot]

20. You are exactly correct Andrea Mitchell and her protege the Toad are perfect examples.

The one commonality the News division has with another NBC reality star Donald Trump is ratings.

[The Velveteen Ocelot]

22. Well, they sure as hell got one.

[kitron]

9. We are up 21K in WI

[Meowmee]

11. Great!

[MustLoveBeagles]

15. I hope so

[onetexan]

17. woohoo!!

Biden/Harris!!

21. CNN just now, MI has just turned blue. nt

[The Velveteen Ocelot]

23. Excellent!

25. What does a Biden Presidency look like without the Dems in control of Senate?

[bucolic_frolic]

26. It could play to one of Joe Biden's strengths

jaw-boning. Negotiating, cajoling, arm-twisting, public opinion shaking with Senate interface.

But also EO's. It will force a more moderate cabinet, but Joe is a little bit of that too.

Republican Senate can only stonewall for 18 months before they're campaigning for reelection, 23 of 'em.

And the country may not now be in a mood for more partisanship.

One wild card: Joe's communication skills. Clear, whole sentences, delivered earnestly. Almost Reaganesque, yet cagey with a hint of FDR.

Don't underestimate Joe Biden!

[Tommymac]

27. It's going to be tough the first 2 years.

We'll have a pretty good shot at taking the Senate in 2022 if we don't this year.

But less economic relief, Judicial inequality, legislative gridlock, more dead then if Joe has a Blue Senate.

Same as it was for Obama after 2010.

[Yavin4]

29. At the very least, we can get this pandemic under control.

That's my biggest worry. Also, the ACA should be safe for a while with a Biden presidency.

[Pepsidog]

31. Yes against great resistance, Joe will try to keep Rs alive.

[Darkstar53142]

28. I'm happy about Biden's supposed win in my home state,

...but disappointed that my home county (Kenosha) has turned fascist, mostly because of the law and order brainwashing from cheato's people.

[BobTheSubgenius]

30. I hate to be this ignorant, but I just woke up, and the meds haven't cleared out yet.

How did it happen that, when I went to bed last night, the networks were calling the state for Drumpf, and now it seems Biden has won it? That's a pretty big turnaround. It's like Ohio in 2004, except the inverse.
