Confused by what this means. NYT data reports about 720K votes counted in Wayne County, estimating this is 76% of the vote. That would mean 227K ballots in Wayne Co alone to be counted/reported.
Unless their estimate of total vote count is way off.
I will chamber my own celebration gif then so that we may blast them out of the cannon together 
Yep, itās going to be another one of those weird Florida things where they somehow have to vote on it twice before it really passes.
My Dem state senate choice was polling +7 as of Nov 2nd. Lost handily. Florida legislature firmly in GOP hands another two years. Gerrymandering ahoy.

PONIED by literally seconds. Could be an omen 
Just about the only positive about it looking like the GOP will hold the Senate is that they now have absolutely no incentive to rig this for Donald at any level. We arenāt going to pack the court, shit Mitch isnāt going to let us seat a justice if thereās a vacancy. They arenāt at any risk of any of our policies getting through the Senateā¦ And in 3-4 months if Trump was still in office heād be getting blamed for this winters obscene death toll when instead heās going to be tweeting about how much worse Bidenās COVID numbers are than his.
They cheated as hard as they could and they got the best case scenario for themselves. Thereās absolutely nothing for them to gain by sticking their necks out for Trump here, and if they wouldnāt stick their necks out to stop him I donāt think they are going to discover courage to help him out now.
Seriously this outcome is the best one for Mitch McConnell. Heās overjoyed Iām sure. Heās now the leader of the GOP, has a 6 year term as a man in his late 70ās in seemingly poor health so reelection isnāt a concern. Biden and co will govern the country day to day in a much more effective way than Trump, but theyāll get zero credit because Mitch can just choke off the stimulus because heās rediscovered his fiscal conservatismā¦ Yeah.
At least Iām 99.9% sure weāre done with Trump.

Maineās lock blue 3 EVs hadnāt been called yet?
MSNBC is pretty good when they get into the data. Kornacki has to be the best at this. Chuck Todd was so awful on the map on the national coverage.
Checking out FNC to see how theyāre handling it right now.

It could be that those calls are based on data being uploaded to official sites and Wisconsin hasnāt done that yet.
It has. Biden get 3 EVs and Decision Desk called ME-2 for Trump a few hours ago.
Is AZ planning to ever finish counting? Has MI given a timeline?
I legit am starting to believe we played ourselves with mail in voting. Itās too confusing for too many people and too easy to fk it up. And nobody is as obsessive as we here are about it, they fire and forget, once itās in the mail itās all over and forgotten for most people. I bet 10% of our sideās votes werenāt even counted at all, maybe more.

They said Friday earlier this week
Has Steve Kornacki been on non stop since last night? What a legend. He was on until 3am when i went to bed and was still going hard when i woke up five hours later.

Kornacki amazes me how he knows geographic areas and their politics so well. Some of the areas I know down to a micro / precinct level he just reels off and Iām like how the fuck does he know about those suburbs? But he knows it everywhere in the entire country it seems.

MI said Friday but updated it to say most likely they would finish today. PA and NV probably not though.

Per the NY Times chart, MI expects to have āa very clear picture, if not final pictureā of the results by tonight.

Sheās wrong. The single biggest takeaway from this election so far is that turnout isnāt going to save us. Thatās obviously bad for her model and bad for her career, but sheās wrong. And not a little wrong, very wrong.
