I voted about 30 minutes ago was #114. Turnout is looking good in my small precinct.

Bye bye Claire!

Did anybody have Ohio senate race being this close?

I'm a big fan of Josh Hawley. Wouldn't be surprised to see him in the national spotlight in the future.

How many Republicans in the house that distanced themselves from Trunp ended up winning?

If this were a midterm with Hillary Clinton in the White House, could John James have pulled it out in Michigan?

Tester has broken 50% the first time ever in his elections.

It’s the haircut

A couple notes about the undervote:

Nelson has 10,301 fewer votes in Broward County than Gillum
Scott has 10,647 fewer votes in Broward County than DeSantis

Also, Broward County, as far as I can tell, is not reporting any results on their site for the FL-24 race, but they are reporting results for the uncontested FL-20 race. As far as I can tell, there may not have even been a FL-24 slot on the ballot. CNN reports Hastings with 201,000+ votes in the FL-20 race, but 0 votes for Wilson in the FL-24 race.

wait WHAT

There are 0 votes for Wilson because she wasn't on the ballot. She ran unopposed.

Is that a Florida thing? Whenever there have been unopposed races when I've voted, the unopposed person was still on the ballot.

Same. Half my ballot was people running unopposed but with a write in option underneath.

So do that mean it’s possible that this error is basically a wash in regards to the vote total for each candidate?

[Alabama_Indy10]

1. When will the hand recount begin?

2. If it is proven to be a machine error, how many votes can Nelson expect to net from those 30,000?

Filling in a bubble isn't rocket science people.

There is a separate thread for Florida:

I’m aware.

Pretty funny that in AZ, the Green Party candidate is named Angela Green ... and she‘s black.

Did you expect her to be green?

I’m definitely not a fan of ranked choice voting. But Poliquin knew the rules of the game.
