Yup Florida is over. Biden campaign needs to swallow their pride and circle the wagons in WI, PA, and MI. Hopefully nationwide protests after election day can buy enough time for those states to count before the Supreme Court steps in.

Anyone know if NY will be reporting daily voting totals?

For the EV doomers in particular:




Someone in the replies makes the point that, since Trump has demonized mail-in voting so much, the Republicans who actually are voting by mail at this point may be disproportionately Biden voters. Which makes sense to  me.

Really ugly numbers in Florida. Let’s see if the Obama rally this weekend can turn things around but it may be time to consider redirecting resources to GA and TX.

I think the main issue is not counting mail-in ballots, which I agree should basically be counted as fast as day-of ballots, but processing them (which means taking them out of the envelope, checking the signature, sorting them, etc.) which needs to be done before counting. In civilized states this can be done prior to election day, but in PA and WI it cannot be done until day of, and I don't think they're able to process all of these ballots in time to start counting them when polls close.

If Democrats can hold things close to a tie today in Florida that would be very good news.

Wow! Could Biden still have a slim chance in Florida?

VBM ballots are counted before election day ballots in Florida. What the hell is this bozo talking about?

Barrett did not participate.

5-3, the three liberals plus Roberts and Kav in the majority. Wonder what Brett’s game is here.

Democrats winning Florida by turning out hordes of Broward County olds while Republicans dominate with Cubans is a pleasant throwback to the 90s.

Guys, Ralston is an independent journalist in a small backwater state that no one cares about. Let him enjoy the two weeks every two years when the rest of the world pays attention to him.

Agreed, let's all hope he "goes" out of the White House and into prison in January.

Looks like this one is over. The hubris of this campaign, not abandoning Florida a week ago when it was clear what was happening.

Trust the Montana Democratic Party. They know what they're doing.

Early voting has concluded in NYC. First time in a presidential election.

(NOTE: These numbers don't include absentee/mail-in ballots)

Not sure how many absentees are expected but this is pretty pathetic turnout compared to the rest of the country's early voting. NY election administration really needs a total overhaul.

Looks like TX is gone. FL will be a heavy lift too.

I assume all the Florida optimists will be admitting how wrong they were? If only we’d spent all that time and money in NC instead and got Cal over the line.
