At this point though it's looking like a bigger win for Trump in Ohio than that. His lead keeps increasing as time goes on.

NC is still tight, which is somewhat good news if it stays that way.

Pennsylvania, Ohio, and Wisconsin are all pretty much neck and neck now. This is gonna end up in court, isn't it.

One of the most interesting things about a potential Trump re-election will be what it will sound like when Deutsche Bank instantly spins 180 on their heels regarding Trump's loans.

Will it be a *fwip*, a *zoopzoop*, a *skush*? Who can know?

It is shocking how much the establishment missed this election. Even if it is a narrow Biden victory, it is shocking.

Yeah I back off my earlier comment that Trump would win. I think smart money would move to Biden now especially with those odds.

... Are all accounted for in most of these states.

You can say this when Michigan and Pennsylvania become central in an hour or two.

It is going to come to what Amy Coney Barrett's interpretation of "state legislature" is.

PBS just stated Wisconsin, Ohio, and Pennsylvania will not have results tonight because of absentee votes. Predictable.

Why is that every channel is talking about how they are being counted? Especially in some of the states that matter?

I don't get this. Because they will count them tomorrow?

Why can't they keep working? Half the country is still just starting to report in but hey, we're going to bed!
