Indiana and Kentucky called for Trump. Not unexpected but still shaking the confidence.

Willing to be laughingly wrong, but I thought they just simply had no electoral votes and don't get a say on president.

Trump has 57% of the vote so far. How is that promising? I honestly can't figure out these results maps. Bloomberg has given Trump Kentucky with only 17% of the votes counted. Fox has given Biden Virginia, but has Trump leading with 54.7% of the popular vote. It's confusing me.

Early returns are displaying that red map predicted. I think it's time to take a couple hours off from this madness and go watch a movie to kill some time. I can feel the cortisol racking my noodle. Enjoy the craziness folks.

Any clues if the vote shifted? If Kentucky moved 5-10% away from Trump, that might be significant for the rest of the country.

Trump is down a couple of points in Florida counties he won in 2016.

The territories vote in primaries, but yes, that's it.

Ah the every 4 year panic over incomplete results. Freak out when we're in the 90% reporting range.

It's because he's (seemingly) underperforming in the reporting counties compared to 2016. And there's a lot of urban votes left to count.


I'm an amateur at this, I could be very wrong.

Where are you guys looking and how the hell are people predicting stuff so fast? The EST polls closed like 15 min ago.

Elections always amaze me.

Trump won Kentucky by 29.84% last election. He's leading Biden by only 12.5% at the moment, a 17.34% drop. That is a significant hit.

Basically, they're using Broward county as a bellweather. Clinton won that county with 67% of the vote, Biden currently has 75%.

But it's only 16% reporting. I don't think much can be read into these early returns, even county by county.

Early results in Broward have Joe at 75%.

Joe at 54 in Miami-Dade with a million votes in. 10 points lower than Clinton.
