Did everyone forget about the delays counting mail in ballots or are we just pretending the sky is falling because we’re used to it?

Look at every major election since 2016. Trump gets repudiated at every turn. He lost a senate seat in Alabama, and the House in 2018. He’s on track to lose the Senate and House again.

He’s going to do all this losing and still win the White House?

I dunno. Seems dubious.

Everyone relax. Did people miss the discussion about the red mirage early on? This was expected. The mail-in won’t be counted for a while more. Yes, this is discouraging, but the numbers are closer than expected with the red mirage.

Different Hispanics. Mexicans versus Cubans

Florida Hispanics are dominated by Cuban descent. Not at all related to each other.

I wouldn't be so sure of that. Hispanic voters in Miami-Dade are largely from Cuba and Venezuela and are far more likely to respond to Trump's "Biden = SOCIALISM" messaging. Hispanic voters in Arizona are largely from Mexico and Central America where Trump is absolutely loathed.

I find it offensive when there are really important things at stake and someone cares about being “right”.

There are fewer Cubans in FLA than there were four years ago, and yet his share of latino vote got better.

Last time the entire campaign was about immigration and the border, and this time he's barely mentioned it. I think that has an effect.

It's appearing like the polls in swing states were off by about 5%

They couldn’t,

The key in those states is they give good location data with reporting, indicate if it’s main in or in person and count mail in early.

So the data for this doesn’t exist for Pennsylvania and Ohio.

If so, Trump wins with a margin basically the same as last time.
