Fizzzzle Posted November 5, 2020 Share Posted November 5, 2020 4 minutes ago, Brick said: So what happened to having to count all the votes taking days, or possibly weeks? Seems like, at least from what I'm gathering in this thread from skimming the posts, is that by tomorrow we'll know whether or not Biden has won. Is it just that the remaining votes in the states that have already been called are not enough to swing the outcome either way, and it's just about finding the final numbers? I'm still not liking how close this election was, and fear what the Republicans are going to do to try and steal it. Most states that haven't reported full numbers yet are decidedly blue. Like New Jersey, Maryland, Washington, and California. The red states are all pretty much counted. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chairslinger Posted November 5, 2020 Share Posted November 5, 2020 Also, I think a common thing to say was days to count, weeks to know the results. Knowing the results can include recounts and court battles depending on how close things are. It could definitely still be weeks before Trumps legs stop kickin.

Ricofoley Posted November 5, 2020 Share Posted November 5, 2020 Another thing that's making me feel... better-ish today, aside from the obvious of Biden seemingly being on the cusp of clinching, is that it looks the drop in the margin of the House majority won't be as bad as what the worst case scenario looked like. This is a lot like 2018, where early on on election night it was looking much more disastrous than what the final outcome was. A 52-48 Senate would still be a huge bummer for obvious reasons though.

Ricofoley Posted November 5, 2020 Share Posted November 5, 2020 Best case scenario for the next few years is Trump launches a Fox News rival and ends up completely splitting the audience and they both lose influence compared to what Fox has now.

That's when they expect to be completely done, but I would expect the networks to call it as soon as Biden's in the lead, yeah? I think the expectation is it's going to steadily move in Biden's direction from now on and it's just a matter of whether enough is left for him to overcome the deficit, which most everyone seems to agree by now is almost certain.

I think its an ultimately unsolvable problem for Democrats. Republicans can toss out whatever generic whitey that toes the party line but Dems have to carefully tailor their candidate to the district they're running in.
