I think the uncounted polling stations are expected to go Trump's way. Even though the count looks close when you look at the NYT prediction it's still wide margin trump. Which is a bit odd as usually it's urban areas with the largest # of votes that lean Dem coming in late, but I trust their projection

Hovering over the cities there is still a lot of votes outstanding. This one could go down to the wire.

Still early, but everything suggests it's all down to Pennsylvania.

What am I missing here? This looks like a blowout for Trump in every sense. People in this thread are talking about Harris carrying Ohio and Ted Cruz losing his seat in Texas. Bizarre.

Because we have no data for Pennsylvania and outside of Florida no real over performance by Trump in Georgia and North Carolina.

So until we have meaningful data to suggest systemic National polling error or local data in Pennsylvania/Wisconsin/Michigan suggesting a Trump win there is no real information to process. It started a toss up and remains a toss up though now with slight lean Trump.

There's a correlation between the votes in one state and the votes in another. Everyone expects Harris to carry New York and California, for example. If the early results were to show Harris winning narrowly in New York, it wouldn't bode well for her chances to win in Nevada, which is expected to be very close.

That's exactly what's going on tonight. Trump is WAY overperforming expectations in Georgia, which is why it is likely he does better than expected in Wisconsin and Pennsylvania.

She can lose Georgia, North Carolina, Arizona, and Nevada, but must win Wisconsin, Pennsylvania, and Michigan. That gives her a 270-268 win. A 269-269 tie is win for Trump.

Yup, Shapiro not getting the VP pick could be a pretty important turning point

If Harris were to win, she needs Ohio and Pennsylvania minimum. Right?

All of these Russian bomb threats should be bigger stories. We're sort of just brushing it off, like we just expect Russia to do something to help Trump. It's crazy.

No. She needs Pennsylvania almost certainly, but not Ohio.

Ohio is gone, won't even be close. Right now the only states that look like they'll be close are the blue wall and Nevada. Any notion that this wouldn't be close and would be a Harris landslide, not so much.
