Presidential vote: 2,910,053
Senate vote: 2,887,025
The numbers are consistent with people who may not choose a senate candidate, but the thing is that prior to the two latest traunches of ballots, the trend between Biden and Kelly were pretty consistent. So as more Trump vote comes in, and Biden's percentage dropped, Kelley's remained consistent at 52.11%. Those two should be tied together. As Biden drops and Trump rises, Kelly should drop and McSally should rise. That has not happened in the senate vote. I would consider this an "irregularity" that the data should show.

Her map was exactly the same as mine, then, except that I had Trump winning Arizona.

The breakdown is as follows.
45,499 in blue counties
15,868 in red counties
If we assume the votes go 75/25 in each of those areas respectively that will close the gap by ~15,000 in bidens favour.
This is going to be extremely close.

I think GA is coming up short. Trump winning by a few thousand votes. PA doesn't look like its happening either. Unless it is all urban, and most if it from Philadelphia, the break just doesn't seem consistent with statewide results. North Carolina seems still possible, but we won't know for a week. Arizona and Nevada, we should know by this evening. Both are likely to feature some shenanigans. I would like to believe that AZ and NV will stand and be blue, but I think this is all going sideways as the outside interests got involved in "monitoring" elections.

So in other words Biden's seeming win is in serious jeopardy? This is what I am surmising from recent events and the general tone.

Insane. In Canada if you work elections, you can't leave the building until everything's done. Nevada not counting until today, PA and NC counting whenever... these are lawsuits waiting to happen.

It's kinda hilarious to watch New Era go in the complete opposite direction of 2016. When it was obvious early on Trump was trending to winning he tripled down that Hillary was gonna win, and now that a Biden win looks likely he's tripling down that Trump has it wrapped up. Feel free to offer $1,000 bets again.

It's not just the innumerate general public who are skeptical about the accuracy of polling. The people who spend big money on polls, and the new organizations whose credibility are at risk, are raising serious questions about the faceplants pollsters have performed in back-to-back presidential elections.
The Polling Crisis Is a Catastrophe for American Democracy
Quote:
This is a disaster for the polling industry and for media outlets and analysts that package and interpret the polls for public consumption, such as FiveThirtyEight, The New York Times’ Upshot, and The Economist’s election unit. They now face serious existential questions. But the greatest problem posed by the polling crisis is not in the presidential election, where the snapshots provided by polling are ultimately measured against an actual tally of votes: As the political cliché goes, the only poll that matters is on Election Day. The real catastrophe is that the failure of the polls leaves Americans with no reliable way to understand what we as a people think outside of elections—which in turn threatens our ability to make choices, or to cohere as a nation...

I'm not sure I'm buying the doom and gloom. The trends in GA and PA are very positive for Biden.
NV and AZ are very close to being called, with 3 reputable networks already calling AZ for Biden.
The only way Biden isn't president is if there are shenanigans, which I think is possible but not probable.
I just hope the PA & GA counts come in ASAP and we can put this nightmare behind us. I'm legit willing to forgive my Trump supporting family and friends for supporting him too; I just want to put this behind us already.
