24. Florida should be settled early in the night....

They count the early votes ahead of time. So the results come in quickly.

Win, lose, or too close to call, we will know early in FL. If FL gets called for biden, the race is over.

I'm not expecting that. They have all but invited hackers in and they are actively tossing ballots based on whatever. And you can bet the gop gets constant feedback how the daily totals are stacking in every county, giving them a chance to try to react.

We won't get FL as long as it has a repug gov and ag.

But NC will count its votes fairly. Don't know how they count early votes, but it isn't a big state. It should call early.

PA is fugly. It will be contested and the gop legislature may submit it's own slate of electors. Everything not counted on election day will be challenged in court.

We may not where PA is until december's senate rollcall.
