AP called North Carolina for Trump. He won it in 2020.

Minnesota may land close to where NH did... It seems more decoupled from the rest of the Midwest than in 2016

[mtutiger]

Personally think the US House could be very close...

[Motown Bombers]

And just like that, a lot of vote came in from Hennepin and she has a 13 point lead now in Minnesota.

Joe Biden is gonna laugh himself to sleep tonight. Although I doing think he’d have won either…

If Virginia holds, and she gets Pennsylvania Michigan, Nevada, Arizona, Wisconsin, Minnesota, Maine and New Hampshire so she essentially runs the table she wins I guess it could happen.

Looks like I picked the wrong week to stop sniffing glue.

She's going to win Minnesota, Maine, and New Hampshire. It comes down to Michigan, Pennsylvania and Wisconsin. You can sub out Wisconsin for Georgia or Arizona.

Virginia has just been called for Harris

Probably flipping districts in big blue states like New York and California.

At least one check and balance will still be in place.

Senate majority goes to Republicans

She's not looking bad in Arizona.

I have no respect for this country now.

Missouri voted to codify abortion rights but also voted for the people who want to ban abortion. Make it make sense.

Story of the election from the Fox News voter analysis (national): White voters: 53-43% Trump (was 55-43% Trump in 2020) Black voters: 81-15% Harris (was 91-8% Biden in 2020) Hispanic voters: 56-40% Harris (was 63-35% Biden in 2020).

I mean, she's only down 0.5% with half of Maricopa and Pima left. 

[VegasTiger]

Guess I'll just fall back on being old and white. Should be okay.

I hope this place doesn’t become a source of darkness and constant doom and gloom in the coming years or I’m going to have to leave for my mental health.

She may be running out of vote in Pennsylvania. Still a lot left in Philadelphia.

Tom Nicols on Musk’s thingofajig

The irony is that Biden's term wasn't a disaster. Unemployment at 4, inflation at 2.4 - America's economy the envy of the world. As I wrote - long before this election - when people think that's "bad," illiberal populism thrives on fake nostalgia.

I don't think there's much she could have done differently, or any Dem, for that matter, because - as I kept saying - this was always about voters in four or five states. Most people rejected Trump again, but a few hundred thousand in a nation of 350 million can negate that. /1

The Electoral College - which I once defended as a symbol of federalism - is going to produce another minority-vote president, and that's setting up a crisis of legitimacy. American institutions can't keep producing that outcome. But that's a subject for another day. /2x
