So - let's say that our man Joe gets AZ, NV, PA and GA [View all]

works out to 306 EVs.

After what was (and in a way continues to be) an incredibly harrowing roller coaster ride, the 2 main misses will end up being Florida and North Carolina - those two would have led to the 350 that many pollsters and aggregators predicted. I am just so disappointed in the state in which I now reside. And Florida is....well, Florida!

It was - and is - a very 2020 flavored version of 2018, in a way, after getting way to close to a 2016 experience to all of our liking, I suspect.

After 4 hours of sleep last night, today was surreal.

But the (near certain??) reality of being done with Trump (and Pence) is such an incredible relief that it is hard to put into words.

Can't say enough about what it meant to have DU up and running with lightning speed last night - and to have all of you DUers to banter with, sweat with, share the roller coaster,.....and annoy (I am sure some of you!)

I can only imagine what the time between now and next Jan 20 (guess what I will get for my 65th birthday? Joe and Kamala!) will be like.
