Let the games begin!

Will be interesting to see if there’s any effect on turnout from the recent virus hysteria, especially in 99% election-day-only states such as MO.

What time is Dems Abroad poll closing.

[Illiniwek]

My absentee ballot was received in Michigan today. Cast my vote for Biden. You can add it to the projection!

3 AM Eastern Time, Wedsneday morning

[No War, but the War on Christmas]

Well, if Bernie doesn’t pull out some surprising victories tomorrow I’ll be officially changing my signature to this and endorsing a Biden/Baldwin ticket.

Polls are closing at 3am in MI and MO ?

So, no need to get up before 5 or 6am this time I guess.

We might not know the winner in WA for at least a few days if it’s close, since we vote by mail. So get ready for CA slow counting part two .

I feel sorry for anyone voting there. Washington is not that much smaller than Michigan, but whether it hands a huge win to Sanders or an upset victory to Biden barely seems to matter at this point.

It wouldn't be an upset victory for Biden at this point, he leads in all of the recent Washington polling (granted there hasn't been much).

Anyway, I'm not looking forward to this. I'm just hoping Sanders can maybe pick off one state, most likely Idaho or North Dakota.

So at 8pm est, we may have instant calls for MO, MI, and MS

Seventy years after Korea, General MacArthur will finally get to see the defeat of communism.

MI won't be until 9PM EST, they won't call the state while the couple counties that are in Central Time are still voting.

Are you sure? They called North Carolina at 7:30 when voting was still open in a few counties until 8

Another day where the transition from caucuses to primaries will really hurt Sanders.

Voters at the poll booth today:

Great.  Now I want ice cream.

what's so good about Baldwin for veepstakes? I don't think she is even that well-liked in Wisconsin outside Dane county.

FWIW, Marquette Law had Baldwin's favorability at 44/40 in January.  For comparison, Tony Evers was 45/37 and Ron Johnson 39/29.

Putting Baldwin on the ticket is not worth having to risk the seat in what would be a hostile environment for a special election.

Well it's a good DEM year, and FWIW, I think she is among the bottom unpopular Senators by approval ratings in his/her home state. I'd rather have someone who's much younger and dynamic with good name recognition or someone who is a minority.

[Xing]

Yeah, while I think Baldwin would be a great choice in a vacuum, holding down her seat with a Democratic president wouldn't be easy, and we do have to factor these things in.

Not to mention, while Wisconsin is arguably the most crucial state in this election, that 55 to 45 win two years ago was in a democratic wave year against a really bad far-right candidate.
