I can already start to see it. This morning, the Trump campaign complained that Fox News and AP made a bad call for AZ (understandably so), but Fox News still hasn't retracted their call of AZ for Biden.

This is a chance for Fox News to make the first salvo and break away from Trump. Once AZ is called for Biden by the other media outlets, Fox News will stand by their earlier call and take credit for being the first to make the call.

A rift in the Republican Party has begun, and it looks like it will only get bigger and bigger...

I doubt this will be the catalyst, but I definitely agree with your last statement and I think that people are underestimating the intensity of the identity crisis the post-Trump GOP will undergo.


I hadn't seen this when I made my last post, but if the Democrats split apart between the 'progressives' and the liberals, that could easily provide the room for the sane Republicans to split from the Trump Republicans.

I don't think this will happen because the U.S seems to have too many thinks built up to maintain the two party system, but I think it's slightly more than a zero possibility.

Nevada dumped and Biden is now up 22,000 votes.

Wow. If the rest of the Clark dumps look like this, NV may not be that close. Ralston may have been 100% on point saying Biden +4 in the end

You know those people who live their lives basically cosplaying every day as if it's the Victorian era or the roaring 20s? This guy looks like someone who lives every day as like it's 1988 and he works on the production of the 700 Club.

In a way, a 306 might piss Trump off more than a 413 map lol
Imagine the pain of losing a national election after margins of

Georgia 0.3%
Wisconsin 0.4%
Pennsylvania 0.6%
Arizona 0.8%
Nevada 0.9%

Only Hillary can understand what that feels like.

Much of what is left now is out of AZ-6 and AZ-9 so probably not huge amounts of votes left out there for Trump.


was anyone watching to see where those last 60K came from, which AZ cong district?

I hope some of you find this as exciting as I do.  As the head of the Procrastination Party, I am pleased to announce that we will be nominating our candidate for President for the 2020 U.S election next week.

LOL at all the love for McCain. Dems are now the party of Reagan/Bush.

Indeen.  The first line in Mark Kelly's election night speech was that he'd be a senator "like John McCain."

Is that what Democrats want in 2020, lol?  I mean, I guess it may be the best you can get in Arizona, but it certainly doesn't sound like Kelly will be a reliable vote for Schumer on big issues.

The DINOs in the Senate will be Manchin, Sinema and Kelly 

John McCain wanted to do what is the right thing in his mind, regardless of the party.

I didn't agree with many of his positions, but I respected him.

Then you have been fooled.  McCain was a Grade A a[inks]hole who shilled for the MIC and was a reliable vote for American Empire during his 30+ years in Washington.  Moreover, in one of the most consequential decisions of his entire political career he chose to elevate friggin' Sarah Palin to Republican stardom, and I'd argue you can draw a pretty direct line from Palin --> Trump through the "birther" movement

The reason you "respect" McCain is because he's notorious for being a media manipulator.

Biden should be up by around 4000 votes after the next dump of Gwinnett County votes this morning.

I love the symbolism of the 306 map, but it is too bad Biden couldn't take ME-2. Getting one more EV than 2016 trump with also be absolutely delicious.

Vox and Decision Desk are the only somewhat-major media groups to call it so far.

From what I can tell it was mostly from AZ-6.

Very disappointing that the Democrats couldn't even defeat the corrupt Dave Schweikert in Arizona.

You telling others they "have been fooled," when you support the biggest Presidential Clown ever to lead the  US, and the Triple-A-Grade a**hole that he is.
Are you kidding?
