2020 Presidential Election Results & Exit Polls commentary thread

If Biden wins, GOP has Senate barely, and Dems House, they need to pass bills quickly before 2022----Pelosi, Hoyer and Clyburn should retire and let Dems have fresh blood

There is no reason for Jim Oberweis to be in Congress, no reason for Cheri Bustos to be neck and neck

Pelosi,Clyburn and Hoyer are all retiring by 2022

Any hope we might get NC, or is it completely gone?

There's hope, but it's easily the longest shot of any of the remaining states. In my mind, I gave it to Trump like 12 hours ago or something like that.

Such blatant dishonesty with the intent of creating social unrest.

LOCK HIM UP!!

Btw, the ballot measure in Alaska to install RCV seems to be failing, currently at 57 % "No" with 168k votes reported.

Didn't expect that.

Yeah, I think the main reason it's not being called is the theoretical possibility of late-arriving ballots. But if it's anything like the typical election in Ohio, a huge percentage of those remaining ballots are vaporware.

Antrim Co Michigan has to be some clerical error or something isn't it?



Was 62-33 Trump in 2016.  It almost completely inversed.

Yeah, that looks very odd indeed.

That county cast 13,667 votes in 2016. That >98% reporting is probably wrong. It might be accurate in terms of number of precincts, but no way is there no more outstanding vote there.

The PDF sheet from the SOS site also shows these numbers.

But yeah, a sixty point swing would be the biggest shock on an already shocking night, though it's pretty much 100% certain that this is a data error.

Poor Joe Burrow.

His state of Ohio is a swamp of Trumpism.

You have to feel for him, gives a lot to his poor community and they don't get the message

What an idiot,  there's nothing "magical" or "strange" about it, it happens every fricking election.

Do we know who is up in ME-02 for president? I want as much insurance as possible in case PA doesn't flip and in case Nebraska decides to change its EV split system after the fact.

According to DDHQ, Trump leads 51.8-45.2, with an estimated vote count of >95 %.

The Republicans don't have a filibuster-proof majority in the legislature so they can't change the EV split. They've tried and failed.

+5 shift from 2016, Dems still need to do better in northern rural areas

Yup, and it also happened in reverse in states like Iowa and Ohio, where Biden had huge leads only to see them predictably evaporate as the counting went on.

Give us Texas and Florida too, as Biden was up in those states before he “magically” began to trail in the vote count.

[Del Tachi]

Just out of curiosity...why are Dems still high on Georgia?  Trump has a 100k lead with >90% of the vote reporting, and NYT has Fulton and Gwinnett as nearly fully-in.  The only outstanding vote for Dems seem to spread out between DeKalb, Muscogee, Chatham, Richmond and Bibb, but these are all north of 80% reported already.

Biden probably closes the margin some, but him flipping it this late in the count seems very unlikely to me.   

[ugabug]

If Biden doesn't win Pennsylvania, and squeaks out a 270 win... All it'd take is ONE faithless elector to ruin everything. Just ONE attention-seeker. ONE person out of 270 who wants to be make a name for themselves.

I don't think even a attention seeker is going to want that kind of attention.

[forza nocta]

What are our expectations for the popular vote #? Can Biden win it by more than 5?
