Hello to everyone.

I have to wait until midnight Italian time to see the polls officially close in the first states and to see the official results start trickle in and gaaah I'm in for a long night I suppose.

Hey, Atlas hasn't crashed yet. Good job, servers that are currently held together with duct tape.

It's not even noon Eastern Time, I guess the worst will come later.

IIRC, the forum crashed in 2016 not long after we got initial results from Indiana and Kentucky. I know because one of my last posts on record for that historic night was:

Quote
Clinton winning Marion County, KY.

That's it. She's winning in a landslide.

Wink



Was she actually ahead in Marion County at the time or were you just joking? Lmao it must have been a crazy night.

Guam update (61% partially reporting, 14k total votes): margin stays pretty consistent since last update at Biden 55.7, Trump 41.5.

Guam update (73% partially reporting, 19k total votes): marginal improvement for Biden to 55.8, Trump at 41.4.

Appears Guam has a similar pro-incumbent bias that Hawaii also has.

I love that memes that were born here, what, 16 years ago are still going strong.

The memes deserve their accolades Smiley

All hail mypalfish for creating the longest-running meme on Atlas.

This thread is the perfect mix of actual information and de-stress sh!tposting. I approve.

Some people (cough cough yours truly) have no actual information to share, but just want to vibe.

I think this thread will either end up being the longest on Atlas history, or mods will have to cut it into several sections

I agree, lol.

How long are you going to stay up tonight?

Also do the Canaries have the same time zone of mainland Spain or are they 0 UTC instead?

Do any sites have a running map of county swings? NYT has a button that looks like it should show it, but nothing happens when you click on it.

I'm using CNN and it doesn't have one. I have no idea about other sites.

Trump has retaken the lead in KY.

RIP Blue Kentucky, Nov 3rd 2020, 00:20 (?) - 00:54

Sorry for using Italian time I'm lazy.

...These numbers are actually decent for Biden, and I only look at counties with over 75% in.

I will now accept my accolades.

The doomer is doomed.

I'm starting to guess the Miami-Dade/Trump memes will live on Atlas long after 2020.

Biden winning Monongalia County, WV by almost ten points with 76% in according to CNN.

Lol I remember all those "will Trump make a perfect county sweep in any state?" threads.

Lehigh County has to be a mistake right? NYT is saying 98% in with Biden ahead 81-19

CNN is saying the same thing but with only 95% instead of 98%. Still, it has to be a bug.

Argh it looks like Trump is going to carry it by an extremely narrow margin in the end.

F#ck myself.

Is there any information about Nebraska's 2nd District?

I have no idea, but CNN currently has Trump ahead in Douglas County but Biden ahead in Sarpy County, which is totally off, so I don't believe any NE-02 information would be particularly reliable.

Doug Jones could have the worst loss for an incumbent Senator ever.

No, that's impossible. He very obviously can't beat Jacob Javits.

I have no energy anymore for this thread. It's almost 7 am here in Italy. This election has been way more absurd than I imagined it.

Goodbye to everyone.
