NYT flip on GA has to be DeKalb and Fulton county having such low reporting numbers so far, right?

Yep. And apparently Gwinnett and Cobb have gone heavily for Biden this time (even Cobb!!) before all the mail in are counted.

Biden with a 10 point lead in NE CD2 with over 80% counted

Galaril 11-03-2020 11:25 PM

Also Senate looks lost to Rs so even if Biden is to win he won’t get anything done including court packing or even get Breyer to retire and put a young liberal on the SC. God Democrat’s are such a pointless party. Shit even with the country going less white I have little optimism since we have Mexican Americans at the Rio Grande voting for Trump among other groups that are voting against their own interests. I am also similar to people here in the north of $300K income and being white and straight if I was to vote for my own selfish interests Trump would be the way to go.

Nebraska is weird, but I guess it's better than it all being red.

After that debate in Georgia, I thought for sure Ossoff would win. Amazing he is getting his ass kicked.

He comes off as a guy who will have a checkered past in the future if he were elected.

Dems need to do something about the pervasive disinformation that Dems=Socialism and Communism. It's that simple. They've got to get better at combating social media narratives, straight up. Not more radical.

Minnesota called for Biden by Fox News

BillyMadison 11-03-2020 11:31 PM

Cant wait to hear how Bernie would have gotten even more crushed than Biden just like y'all said in 2016 begging us to vote for Hillary. We got behind your bullshit candidate both times. And in 2024 y'all will be asking and pleading for us to unite and back the candidate and talking about how socialism can't win...

Fuck off.

Dems are horrible at framing shit. "Defund the police" will never win. But neither will "play the middle" and vote the moderate. Y'all Doubled down on Trump hates M4A and lost bigly on that messaging. Get strategic.

Fire Tom Perez. Fire all the Dem establishment. Blow it up. AOC for Prez 2024. Fuckl if you say it cant work because clearly your best fucking lame ass centrist Biden can't either even with the entire party behind him.

I saw snippets of this debate, Graham, and McConnell and all of the Republicans performed miserably. And it didn't matter. Perdue sat there and took the soundbite moment from Ossoff and then sat back and watched the votes pour in.

Just wait for the older generations to die out. The US is still decades behind in terms of socioeconomic politics. Once millennials become the bulk of voters, it's over for the republicans.

Strangely, Pedro, Puck and Judd would have probably all been voting for Trump this year.

tarcone 11-03-2020 11:34 PM

Im thinking 2024 will be a battle fo young, charismatic people. I cannot see another election of 70 year olds.

I am pretty excited about 2024.

I suppose one way to combat the Dem = socialism narrative is to just lean into it and put a socialist up. From the standpoint of name calling by the GOP and how voters view the candidate, Bernie and Biden are basically interchangeable.

Although I do wonder if Biden's age and the whole "proxy for the left wing" thing was a way more legit concern than Dems realized.

Don Jr v Chelsea?

Arles 11-03-2020 11:38 PM

It looks like more and more that:
1. mail in ballots = more Democrats
2. Poll voting = more republicans

So, Biden could end up winning some of these states more convincingly after the mail in votes get counted.

LOL. Im here for the long haul. Had a few drinks and am enjoying myself. Throwing shit against the fan and seeing what sticks.

Look, I will admit it, I voted Biden in a state that is really red. I voted for the D Governor, as well.

I get it. But this is a country that is white centric and afraid of reality.

Im sorry I am irritating you. But the reality is what it is. Sad but true, we have a CRAZY motherfucker as our president again.

But I will say, I am having fun with this thread. This is a legit great thread about politics. We should have our own show on TV explaining WTF is going on.

I’d like to see the margin in Wisconsin under 100,000 votes before the Milwaukee dump comes in.

Exactly the way the GOP that controls the state wanted it. They couldn't even begin processing the votes before election day (something just about every other state allows even if counting doesn't begin until election day). PA is going to take a few days.

larrymcg421 11-03-2020 11:49 PM

Ossoff isn't done yet. His numbers are only slightly behind Biden's and Perdue would need 50% to avoid a runoff.

tarcone 11-03-2020 11:50 PM

Wiscys House races went 5-2 GOP. Not sure what that means for the presidential election, but that cannot be good.

It's trending that way, now 113,000 difference. I believe the Milwaukee votes are supposed to come in by 6am.

Do you know how they are counting the vote? Like in person vs absentee?

SI

No surprises. The districts are gerrymandered and the only semi-competitive district this time around looks to be won by the Dem.

You know the longer this goes on, the greater chance Trump does stupid shot.

The world as we know it is only going to get crazier.

Biden had to win in a blowout or shit is hitting the fan.

It was rigged. Both times. Definitely in 2016 and likely in 2020 when Buttigieg and Klobuchar conspired to endorse Biden after Clyrburn's South Carolina deal which was his first, desperate and honestly, pathetic win. They both dropped out and it was over from there. People WANT a MOVEMENT not a CANDIDATE. Trump is a MOVEMENT. BIDEN is a CANDIDATE. AOC is a MOVEMENT. Bernie is a MOVEMENT.

I know you think you're fucking wise and smart but you're 0-2 the past 8 years and even if you're right next time I'm not buying in.

Good luck trying to get that messaging across. Ill vote Trump 2024 over you fucking telling me to vote your stupid ass moderate establishment DNC candidate.

Maybe this is the reckoning we all need. If we survive 4 more years of this.

Cant wait til Van Jones pronounces that Trump is "presidential" in his acceptance speech either.

Jesus Christ. Who has a good number for a mail order bride?

Lucky. It took 2 years for Medical in Missouri to be voted in until the first dispensary opened. And most doctors will not prescribe it.

I think we're still here. I definitely get tarcone's doom and gloom, I think its a bit overboard but I completely get it. For me I think I had bought into the idea that NC was a pretty easy win for Biden and others would be close that it turned out aren't so much. But overall we've ended the night where a lot of people predicted, and we're probably in tossup land. We'll see.
