I think Trump takes Florida and Arizona tonight. I am a little worried about the rust belt and North Carolina but it will be a lot closer then the rats think.

Wait, you think those numbers are GOOD for Trump in AZ? That's pretty terrifying numbers for the GOP in AZ. Look how small that partisan gap is and how many indies there are.

If you assume AZ Rs all vote R and AZ Ds all vote D, or at the very least there's zero net crossover vote (an unsafe assumption, but whatever), Biden just needs to win those Others 53-47 to win the AZ. That's hardly an impressive hill.

Texas is not a purple state.... yet!

I mean, you could definitely call a state Trump won by 5.6 "Purple."

People who lean left really didn't mess around this election. Howie Hawkins only got .25%. That's the worst performance for the Green Party I've ever seen. Howie Hawkins doesn't even seem that bad, he's not a clown like Stein but still, rather impressive how united the left was this election.

Worst for Green Party since 2008.
