A rare non-AZ/GA/NV/PA post:

Even though the state of California hasn't finished counting its votes (and likely won't for quite a while), one of the bigger (both in a literal and a statistical sense) county flips of the election might be Inyo County.  



By area, Inyo is the second-largest in CA and ninth-largest nationwide. This is Death Valley country; it was a Trump +13 county in 2016 (though the almost 9.5% third-party showing makes it more difficult to analyze swings).

NYT currently has the county at >98% reporting and Biden leading by 49.1-48.5 (4,495-4,436).  It's a super tight margin, but if it holds, Biden would be the first Democrat to win here since 1964 and only the second since 1940.  And even in the event that it holds for Trump, it would be at least a ten to eleven point Democratic swing.  

Image and information source: Wikipedia

I wrote a few posts about it in this thread. I’m rather puzzled by it myself. Inyo doesn’t have any ski resorts.

But it seems touristy. Corrolation?

It’s funny you should say that. As I was struggling to fall asleep last night/early morning, I did consider that. It’s definitely possible given that Death Valley is mostly in Inyo County, but I don’t know how much of their economy is based on tourism.

And he goes from being one of the youngest people ever elected Senator to the oldest ever elected President.

Do you think 48 years ago, Joe Biden had any idea that he'd go on to become the 47th Vice President and 46th President? Wink

So we call Biden "President-elect"

Can we call Trump "President-reject"?

A bit anti-climactic since it could have been called a couple days ago but obviously very pleased to see Biden win and the authoritarian clown out of office.

It was reported earlier that Trump is at his Virginia golf course.  He's been out of communication since then.

Ok, but this time around that's sort of like congratulating Americans for ending slavery after the Civil War.

I know it’s unlikely to happen but I really hope, for the good of the country, that Trump concedes and commits to a peaceful transfer of power.

Nate Silver does have a point. If you would have told me that this was the map and PV margin a year ago, I'd have been very happy.

There are fireworks going off here. Granted, two nights ago was Guy Fawkes Night, so a lot of people probably already had them laying around, but still.
