All the states that have been awarded to trump so far are expected. It’ll be a squeaker.

But she will win.

Folks are still waiting in line in NC and PA. We can still win this. Be strong, my friend!

all the red shit they are calling are no surprise - maybe I had a landslide fantasy that one or more would flip, but, alas - no - but al this is expected.

That’s the whole race. But her chances have gone down to those 3 probably.

Hoping it’s specific to the south, but I doubt we get GA or NC, so we need the blue wall and western states. That’s the main hope. People in the south want trump back

Back to basics... no surprise outcomes.
PA looking good right now and the ground effort has been impressive.
I think each of GA, NC, WI, MI are about 50-50

Add them up, and I see it coming down to Harris needing two of the four: NC, GA, MI, WI.

It's early. The rural areas count faster. There's literally no reason to get depressed about Florida.

Only one hour after the first polls closed, it was evident that Trump is overperforming where he needs to, and Harris is underperforming. I think he's going to win.

Hillary was going to win, we all knew that. This failed reality TV star and failed NY real estate guy was a joke. Until it got to be about midnight and it was clear he was going to win. I'm reliving that. But now it is a felon racist and rapist taking over the US. And not even him--he will never be in the WH, they will 25th him out immediately and we will have Vance, who is worse.

Our fellow Americans are total morons. Jimmy Carter will die crying.

The blue big cities have the most votes and are normally the last to finish. In 2020 it was about the same thing.
