Are you thinking of David Wasserman?

Wait maybe I am. 😫😫😫😫☹️

I thought the same, no worries.

Also ... how are these states being called right now? Are these states which were able to count their mail-in ballots before today and they’re just adding in-person votes from today to that total?

Omg, if Gardner doesn’t lose I will freak out. What the fuck to it being too close to call!?!?

DH is singing Blame Canada from South Park. It is nice.

I have. My first election voting was 2000 😭

Mine too. I’ve never had faith in Florida after that.

I just texted a work buddy “Florida is dead to me after 2000.”  And is all Florida Florida Florida on tv

Biden is underperforming in Rio Grande Valley in Texas. Too early to assess enthusiasm among Latinx voters but I’m wondering if that’s the connection with Miami-Dade here and if we will see similar numbers in other areas with large Latinx populations.

Something you have to remember about Hispanics is that they are mainly Catholic and therefore single issue voters (abortion). Then you have a big group who are single issue for pro-gun. 

my IL’s voted trump back in 16. They are Hispanic and in the rio grande valley. Not Catholic, but southern Baptist. 

not sure who they will vote for this year as we rarely talk to them. But BIL says they were disappointed in trump.

So far I’ve seen Biden doing better when compared to 2016 except for southern TX...which is weird to me.


But also I feel like most of these results aren’t valid until the mail votes are counted/reported.

I haven't seen turnout info for the valley. COVID is RAMPANT there.

The margins are shrinking in TX. The false hope was nice while it lasted lol

Should we have separate threads for House and Senate?

And then maybe one for random local elections?

I would love another thread for House & Senate races!

OK, looks like the yeses outnumber the no-es. I started a new thread for any relevant House/Senate updates.

If no one uses it, it can die a quick one-post death.

Reminder: This is them (I.e CNN, MSNBC, NPR, etc.) “calling” results based on a combo of what they anticipate, see in early results, analytics, etc.

Not the actual VOTING final tally results.


Which is why I don’t plan on going to bed/sleep for at least the next 5 days.

I’m seeing Hickenlooper with a strong lead, but just under 40% of the vote.

1. Fox? Really?
2. AP hasn't called it with only 35% counted

Seriously. I’ve never said that word in my life, but when DH mentioned Hickenlooper and I said Cory Gardner, I had to pause to make sure I didn’t say his “full” name.

I was talking to H about that earlier. Some of it is solid states. Like MD. That can be called with 95% confidence at 8:01pm with 0% reporting. Heck, it could be called at 8pm yesterday. 

[AAM2012]

MSNBC just called Colorado for Biden.

[underwaterrhymes]

Colorado!

I’m feeling that awful panic. Eternal optimist that I am expected better results.

[AAM2012]

It is still so sad to me that there’s this many (or ANYONE) who votes for someone who stands for what Trump is, stands for and has done in the last 4 years.
