I really hope Kelly Loeffler loses tonight. I can't stand her.

This GT has been aptly named.

Yeah they're saying Dems will maintain a majority. R's lead in called races but there's lots of blue states that haven't even started reporting yet I guess.
EDIT: Maybe called is the wrong word here, the article says "predicted".

Not exactly, if Rs have more state congressional delegations, (which they almost certainly will, despite having fewer congressional districts) they win the tiebreaker.

Note: Fox News explicitly telling viewers that Pennsylvania will not be decided tonight. At least that is a positive.
|
As it stands right now Trump is almost 6 points up in Pennsylvania but only 39% decided.
But yeah, kinda weird how things aren't moving anymore.

There are a LOT of mail-in votes that won't be counted until later tonight or tomorrow or Thursday, and a huge chunk of those will be for Biden. No point in declaring Trump a winner quite yet (even if he will later just because ), I'm even quite calm right now and might even go watch a show or something for a bit just for a break. Long ways to go.

Just trying to catch up on everything now. Clearly this is not going according to plan. What states are we relying on at this point?

The urban/rural divide looks like it is strong as ever. I am thinking COVID might play into as smaller centers haven't seen the problems that larger cities have. To them, COVID restrictions are too much and they prefer Trump's DGAK attitude.

Yes, I went back and they said congressional delegations not districts.
The analyst also make the mistake and corrected himself. I don't know what congressional delegations are :/

Yup, this is correct. Each state gets a vote in Congress, not each district. So a Republican will just about always win a tied EC vote.
On another note, I think we can pretty safely call that it's going to be a GOP Senate. So no sweep.

This election could come down to a congressional district.

If Biden take Arizona and 2 of Penn/Wis/Mich I think he's golden.
There's a bunch of different scenarios that could happen. It's going to be close.
Stupid Florida.

PA, MI, WI. AZ to a lesser extent. There's also still an outside, but diminishing, chance that Biden can win NC and/or GA.

Every time I change to a Canadian channel they are still talking about mail in ballots. Doesn’t seem to be talked about too much on the American channels.

I'm puzzled by popular vote, with Trump leading by 2.5 million (3 points). I guess the west, Cali mostly, swings that to Biden, but probably not decisively?
