Trump has won the states he was expected to win.

Harris has won the states she was expected to win.

Rural counties with fewer people report first. The big urban areas don’t come in until later.

It’s early yet. Check back in a couple hours.

The mostly rural and/or Southern states always report in first. The only states I've seen conclusively called for Shithead so far are the ones Democrats almost never win anyway.

The states Trump won are heavily red states, so there aren't any surprises there.

Yeah, TFG is so far, per The Guardian, ahead but that doesn't include NY/IL/CA, or really any major state.

We're about 10% in, just hang on and keep on!

Trying to stay calm but there is way too much at stake tonight for me to be rational.
