17. I like the way you think!

Thanks for putting that together. I played with the numbers earlier, made myself some lists of states, and definitely see a victory for Harris. I think she may even get more than you predicted. I had 4 states I haven't assigned yet. IA, TX, FL, NC were within a few percentage points in the last election. That leaves room for us to win any of them, but we can win without them too.

Given the recent polling in Iowa, and the overall large turnout by women, not to mention the recent Puerto Rico comments, I think we might see Florida and Iowa turn Blue. I'm hopeful about NC but I live here and have been disappointed too many times to feel confident. And while I don't trust TX or FL election integrity, I still believe there's a chance one or both will flip by the shear numbers. I hope to be pleasantly surprised!

As I type this reply, it's almost 2 am Sunday, so 2 days until the election. I'm also wishfully thinking we may know the outcome late Tuesday or early Wednesday, even without all the states called! There will be enough states called to put her at 270 and declared the winner! The other EVs will follow. Big Blue wave coming!
