Here's a prediction that probably ends up mostly incorrect that I could see unfolding, hour by hour only displaying network calls of states & CDs.

9:30 PM ET:



Biden: 118
Trump: 94

11:30 PM ET:



Biden: 203
Trump: 119

2:30 AM ET:



Biden: 289
Trump: 137

3:30 AM ET:



Biden: 295
Trump: 181

2 PM ET (11/4):



Biden: 296
Trump: 184

By the end of the following week:



Biden: 307
Trump: 231

I could also see networks being even more cautious than this, and each of these calls (regardless of who wins the state) being postponed by an hour or longer. I'm assuming that networks will reasonably call states like OR and TN immediately, which may not be the case.

Florida counts mail in early and releases them in big batches relatively early in the night.
