I guess it’s not 90-10.

Fox has now brought on another member of their decision desk to argue about Arizona, and that guy is also saying nope, it's over. I mean, I'm looking at the numbers and I'm a lot more bearish but they're the experts.

They say that there is a 1 in 1200 chance that the Arizona call is wrong. That is... comforting.

Supreme court is going to toss out legally cast votes? Have you seen Trumps record in the courts the last couple weeks? The most likely path to victory for Biden still exists. What shocker has Trump won tonight?

Not surprising, but had to add this since I think Katie Porter is awesome.

It's 2020. One in 120 is cold comfort.

The 90% chance of victory 538 assigned to Biden is the percentage of times he wins in all their simulations. It never meant it would be a guaranteed blowout.

Yes, they will on the basis of mail in ballots being invalid. Yes, I’ve followed along, recent Court win did not have the new chick voting. I’d say the shocker Trump won given the last 4 years was, just about everywhere? Florida, PA... Michigan?! Ohio? Wisconsin? All of these are kind of surprising to me. Just goes to show how seriously uneducated, manipulated, racist and disconnected from reality so many Americans are.

If someone says the Lightning have a 90% chance to beat the Red Wings it doesn't mean they will win 9-1 obviously

When is this bloated orange turd going to speak? This is getting late even for the West coasters among us.



He's probably berating his underlings because none of them have found a media outlet to point to as proof he's already won and that the vote counting should stop....

Georgia is getting REAL close. 50.4% for Trump now, 48% for Biden. NYT ticker has it tilted 59% for Joe.
