Election Results and just the results

Went overnight from being a nailbiter to just plain irritating!

If Biden wins Wisconsin, Michigan, and Nevada, he'd have exactly 270 electoral votes.

Hoo! Hoo!

Trump won Maine's last vote.

That would make it 271.

I feel like Biden still has a chance in Georgia----perhaps more of a chance than in Pennsylvania. He's 500,000 votes behind in Pennsylvania at this point. Let's hope the Philly area is like 75-25 for Biden.

I would just like to point out that, whoever wins, that this election turnout has been massive. Biden has surpassed Obama's record and has surpassed ~70,000,000 million votes to achieve the highest popular vote of all time (by total, not necessary percentage of eligible voting population). Trump himself has smashed his prior record of ~63,000,000 to reach ~67,500,000 votes so far, which is only behind Obama's record of ~69,000,000 (and Biden).

There's still a lot of votes to be counted

Biden won Wisconsin.

In Pennsylvania, absentee votes are 78.3 % for Biden so far, so based on this the remaining mail-in votes are likely heavily skewed toward him.

Biden went from being approx. 680,000 votes behind Trump at 75 % counted to approx. 460,000 behind at 80 % counted. If this development holds for the remaining 20 percent, Biden might win Pennsylvania.

Yep. Just like the last election.

My mom is going to pieces because Trump lost.

I wish I could say he's lost----but he hasn't lost yet.

Biden has won Wisconsin, according to the Associated Press.

So far it's a pretty tight race and that should be condolences enough for both sides whoever wins.

This isn't like last time when most thought for sure Hillary would win by a landslide.

I think also it being dragged out like this is going to take the steam out of whatever potential rioting there might've been.

Personally I think people make too big a deal out of both these men and go overboard in vilifying them. Neither one of them is going to bring about the end of the world. They'll serve their term like the others before them and that will be that.

They're counting votes from Detroit and Grand Rapids.....Democratic strongholds. It looks good for Biden in Michigan.

It seems likely, at this point, Trump will get AK, GA, NC and PA.

MI and NV seem to be the most neck and neck at this point.

Nevada is usually a blue state far as I know, so I'm expecting Biden to take it.

Probably MI also.

Unless Trump wins MI, he'll lose 268 to Biden's 270.

That's mighty darn close.

North Carolina is funky because they count mail in votes sent out on election day (not received) for 12 days after. Could be a while before we hear about that state.

I don't know why Nevada is struggling to finish counting their votes. They've delayed until tomorrow morning.

I'm confused about Nevada too.
