The fact I knew what you meant, means it's not just you, Phil. Sadly.

It's early days yet, everyone. I think we'll see things change and change again.

PerkingFaintly · 04/11/2020 00:39

It does. Flowers

NYTimes called W. Virgina and Kentucky for Trump. Not a surprise. Vermont for Biden (so thankfully the Bernie Bros didn't break ranks this time!).

Apileofballyhoo · 04/11/2020 00:42

Panhandle likely to go red. And today's votes too. According to MSNBC anyway. Though I did wonder if the pandemic would make more Republican seniors in Florida vote early.

occa · 04/11/2020 00:42

Yep the panhandle is red so Florida could come down to postal votes again, potentially.

New York Times has Trump winning 2 of 3 key states inc Florida, Biden winning North Carolina. Won't be a Biden landslide.

Apileofballyhoo · 04/11/2020 00:44

I know a shy Biden in Kentucky actually, not that it will make a difference.

managinged · 04/11/2020 00:46

According to the Guardian, the trend in Florida and Ohio is that Biden is leading. Both of those states are important for gaining electoral college votes.

tobee · 04/11/2020 00:48

It's still so early. Isn't it?

Apileofballyhoo · 04/11/2020 00:49

Biden is losing his lead in Florida as today's votes come in.

Trump probability of winning Florida now up to 95% -NYT

colouringindoors · 04/11/2020 00:55

Guardian is wrong. Sadly. Today's votes are swinging it back to Trump Sad

Officials: We won't have the vote count we expected tonight in Fulton County, home to Atlanta and a tenth of all Georgians. Absentee-by-mail processing at State Farm Arena was delayed 4 hours because a water pipe burst in a room. Officials say no ballots were damaged.

Fulton has scanned 86,191 of the 130,517 absentee-by-mail ballots received, which doesn't include the ballots received in today's mail, elections officials said.

One board member thinks we won't have results until Friday.

As of 5 p.m., 14,152 Fulton residents have voted today, with 598 provisional ballots cast. Fulton elections head Richard Barron has been talking about roughly 150K-170K voting today. That's a big difference.

The Guardian is not on the same page as every other news outlet
Delphinium20 · 04/11/2020 00:58

Shit...it looks bad that Floria will go to Trump. I feel fucking sick.

RedToothBrush · 04/11/2020 00:58

This is going to be tight and Trump will win... Again.

tobee · 04/11/2020 00:58

How? How? How?

I know Vermont has already been called blue, but it still amused me to see that their Repub Governor voted for Biden.

I always liked Vermont Grin

WeWantTheFinestWines · 04/11/2020 00:59

Shit scared. And fed up of going to bed on an election night (UK) and waking up to devastating news. I really hope this time things will be different. Not confident. Good luck to us all 😪

lavenderbongo · 04/11/2020 01:00

Florida is back in Biden’s hand now

PhilSwagielka · 04/11/2020 01:00

Well, I’m out of here before all the Trumpers start floating about drinking salty liberal tears.

4 years to go.

managinged · 04/11/2020 01:01

How depressing ... I was hoping the Guardian had it right.

PerkingFaintly · 04/11/2020 01:04

Sitting presidents do usually win, IIUC.

It would be a mark of shame for Trump to fail to win this one.

Days to go before we know, I think.
