Allegheny PA has 35K votes left to count but they won't get to them until tomorrow because elections staff have an "administrative day" today.
Can't make this crap up.

I still can't believe after 4 years and more specifically everything that occurred in 2020 that it's even this close.

It's rather insane that the entire game plan for all this was divined before the election, and was summarily denied by the president and the party, and yet, here we are, with the exact thing we were told.

NYT blog says:
Pennsylvania election officials plan to hold a news conference this afternoon. Democrats here are increasingly confident that Biden will have a big lead when all votes are counted. All I've got to say is less talky, more count-y

It's time for an entire new generation of leadership across the board quite honestly. I'm a 45 yr old man, and the only politician who has even come close to representing my generation is Obama.

I'm 51 and have long asserted that the biggest existing cultural divide between generations is the one between GenX and Boomers. We're the first generation to start kindergarten in integrated schools, the first generation to have computers in our schools, the first generation with hip-hop music, and nearly the first generation with a large proliferation of mainstream "R" movies, and, as we discussed at FOFC maybe 3-4 weeks ago, our view of what constitutes humor differs vastly from Boomers as well, but is still quite mainstream for today. Those are all *gigantic* cultural shifts that the generation above us didn't experience. And in many cases, not only did they not experience the tech/race differences, in the case of movies and movies, in most cases they out-and-out rejected it, whereas the average Gen Xer has familiarity with the music and movies of the 2 generations beneath us. I can have a conversation about race, music, movies, or technology with the average 30-year-old, where the average 70-year-old would be completely lost.

A lot of these pundits keep saying they think Biden is going to win by 500K plus votes in PA.
In 2016, Clinton got 584K votes at 82% in Philadelphia. Right now, Biden has 488K at 80% with 17% of the county left to count. Biden is down by 115K. Where are they getting a 600K vote swing from?

Right and also look at Michigan - as more absentee ballots get counted, the more of a gap Biden leads by. He's at +3% lead in Michigan now.

PredictIt right now:
NV - Biden .91 AZ - Biden .76 GA - Biden .68 PA - Biden .82 NC - Trump .90 FWIW, I think that NC number is way too confident.

I agree with all. Maybe a little high on Georgia (I'm just skeptical there). I don't see a reasonable path for Biden to take NC. I believe he'd need to make up 77k+ out of the 117k outstanding ballots which we're not even sure how many will get returned. |

Makes sense because the contract wording says we need a call from both CNN and Fox News. CNN has been super conservative on their calls.

I don't see it on their site either. Looking at this line tracker, I see Pinnacle changing the line at 10:01 am this morning to Biden -800: https://www.sportsbookreview.com/bet.../line-history/ Having checked that throughout the process, the sbrodds version was consistently updated ahead of the Pinnacle site, which makes me think it was accurate at that time. I think they have access to what a logged in Pinnacle customer sees, and there's been a lag to what we've been able to see on the site. That said, the sbrodds tracker doesn't necessarily pull a number down if the book pulls the line, so there are dead numbers up there. In other words, I'm pretty sure Pinnacle had Biden -800 at 10:01 AM, but I don't know if that's still available or what. |

Being as I'm not even quite there myself (40s and more an "Oregon Trail" micro-generation dweller): is this something every generation experiences or is it unique to the Boomer/Gen X divide? Like the tech native/non-tech native and integrated schools divide are both huge. But, does every generation get to their 50s or maybe 60s and is like "I can converse with people younger than me on a reasonable level"? I have no idea and I don't think we have a lot of people on this board old enough to answer this question (maybe that does answer the question). SI

Nevada should be called soon. Washoe was Trump's only hope and it went to Biden narrowly in the latest batch.
Fox probably holds off as long as possible on calling it through because they'd be calling it for Biden. |

The degree differs between generations e.g. between Gen Y and Z are not that wide (or at least I don't think so). However, I think there was a comparable great divide between the silent/greatest generation vs boomers. The former had the Depression and WW2 to deal with and boomers had rock & roll, Vietnam etc. |

If I could sign a petition that would replace both McConnell and Pelosi, I would do it in a second. But with Biden, Covid and a struggling economy, McConnell is licking his chops. Like the old Heston saying, you will have to pry the senate leadership from his "cold, dead hands".

I don't think it's anything special about us as individuals; I think it's just a pure timing thing. The things I mentioned were all revolutionary shifts that sort of just cut off the Boomers, and since then there have been more just gradual evolutionary shifts.
Another silly one... Boomer Women: "A lady never tells her age!" Gen X Women: "GOOD MORNING, FACEBOOK AND INSTAGRAM!!! TODAY I'M FIFTY AND FLY, BITCHES!!!"

Why would they call Nevada? Less than a 12,000 vote lead with over 150k still to count. Easily swingable, theoretically.
They should call NC before they call NV with these numbers.

Sure we are... certifications don't have to be done until December. It's just that we aren't built for every vote counting 3 days after election day. Votes generally change through November as they keep counting votes (esp once that come through mail that are postmarked by election day)
