The 2020 Election: Delaying the Inevitable

Decision desk, but they’ve been wrong a lot.

NBC’s coverage is insufferable. Maybe they’re punchy like the rest of us but the happy talk is making me ill. Chuck Todd is not good at this.

what in the fuck man

Most updates have been arriving from Trump counties.

Biden still doing well in those updates because the Mail In in PA was super blue

I think their % reported is wrong. Someone earlier said Philly got 346K ballots returned. They’ve reported counting about 230K in Philly. I think there’s only a little over 100K left.

Philly doesn’t have 244,000 outstanding absentees. It’s like 100k.

yup, thats pretty close to my ballparks.

I still think there’s many fewer left in Philly than NYT shows. I mean, the SoS numbers say so. Unless somehow there is still in person vote outstanding, which I didn’t think there was.

There’s also a lot outstanding in Buck, Delaware, Allegheny, and Montgomery.

Also the other areas, even a lot of Trumpy areas, are gonna be bluer than the in person votes and may skew Biden.

Biden is a stone cold immortal lock to win PA only question is when it gets called

Yeah, this is the part the talking heads keep not fuckign getting. Like even on Cnnthe election guy keeps zooming in on the red counties in PA and being like “but Trump can get help here.” No, asshole, he can’t. Trump lost the mail vote everywhere. There’s a reason Idaho popped fucking blue last night when they dumped their mail votes first.

So the MAGA armies chose Phoenix, where the count is bringing them back, instead of Philly, where the count is evaporating their lead?

(ponied on the good shit)

I just wonder sometimes what data they’re using. If there’s only mail in left, the estimated outstanding vote in Philly is clearly wrong on NYT site. I am probably worrying myself unnecessarily.

Yeah, that’s entirely possible. He’s been winning some of these mail dumps by like 10:1 margins. It’s insanity.

I know Frum - but this is pretty funny.

How come we on the left don’t get to base our entire political philosophy on being called mean names once?

“Why are you for Universal Healthcare?”

“Trump called me a looter!”

Yes. Philly mail in that has been counted is 93% Biden. No reason to believe the outstanding will be materially different.
