Well good night folks. I hope blue wall results trickle in over the night paint a more positive picture.
Because the picture uptill now, especially considering many ballots counted during the day were prioritised EV or vote by mail ballots, is looking pretty grim.
Texas didn't turn blue, but some inland states that were red did turn blue

Which would those be? Canadian asking.

Anyone got ten bucks right now on Trump declaring victory in the next 2 hours (from 6:21 pacific time) and saying everything after that is stolen?
Yeah I think that's the plan. IDK enough about states & timezones to say exactly when but surely we're approaching that time.

I hope fivethirtyeight’s caveman election model is more accurate than the NYT one.
There is a somewhat close battle in Texas over the electoral college
I know it’s too early to tell but Tx being blue is making me so hard 😂
It’s leaning red again, but only 11% reporting, so it’s still too early.
Unfortunately (but probably not surprisingly) AP just called Texas for Trump.

God this hurts to watch right now. There's too many data points to comprehend but too few for commentators to tell me the trend.
I'm multi-screening about five different media sources and am letting you know that The New York Times just updated its live presidential forecast to predict a 67% chance of a Trump victory.
The day started out with the NYT in a toss-up position, but as the count has continued, it has started to slowly creep towards Trump.
Let's remember that many votes are yet to be counted and that in 2016, this same tracker at The New York Times was predicting a Clinton victory with 95% certainty.
So far, no real surprises.

a lot of crushed teeth tonight
Looking forward to checking the results on my next break and seeing trump winning every swing state. I knew he would win, it is both the funniest and worst outcome, it was meant to be. We're gonna watch his brain turn ever more thoroughly into goo for the next ~4 years and make even more insane headlines than last time.
