Yup! We know.  We've just been waiting for a major network to make the same call.

I thought only 7 sources had the privilege to call the race?

Someone said AP has a rule against calling races that are close enough to go to an automatic recount. PA is 0.5%, so they might be waiting on that.

Not sure if this is old news, but just noticed Biden is now leading by 4,235 votes in GA.

Yeah, it jumped over 4K when Gwinnett dropped their absentees.  It's been fluctuating a bit both ways since then, presumably as small amounts of overseas and/or provisionals are added to the count.

Yes, AP won't call until PA is over .5%

The other networks are doing the same, most likely.

Yuma, AZ just reported 4.8K ballots and BIDEN netted 24 votes.

Arizona and Nevada are over 0.5%....

I honestly think networks can call AZ and NV now. They might be waiting for the next Maricopa drop tonight, but that Yuma release is not good for Trump.

I think this might be referring to the Allegheny drop coming, but who knows at this point.

The networks not calling Pennsylvania is sort of understandable even though their reasons are flaky and largely driven by self interest but not calling Nevada yet is inexcusable.

And now the CNN team are trying to justify it and .... I kid you not ... with one of the reasons John King giving being what the Trump is telling them.

I will join the criticism train if the next Maricopa (AZ), Clark (NV), and Allegheny (PA) dumps go as expected (good for Biden or general wash), and they don't call it then.

Until now, there have been so many unknown factors, and this election does not have a precedent. It's better to play it safe when the country is already on the verge of falling into the abyss.

The media called the election for Trump on election night in 2016 based on even smaller margins than this.

They didn't have as many mail ballots then.

This should make the networks even more likely to call PA and NV sooner, since we know the remaining vote is much more heavily tilted toward Biden.

To be fair to AP, they've called Arizona.

This is kind of interesting:



It seems like Native Americans (and Pacific Islanders in Hawaii) are the only minority group that trended sharply AWAY from Trump for whatever reason.
