Thus far........it really feels like 2016 all over again

Said it numerous times - the whole world has implied anyone that votes for Trump is a racist ahole; thus people keep their trump card very close to the chest and it is very difficult to get good data on it.  Just like 4 years ago - it continues to look better and better for Trump.  In general - not seeing much signs of a blue wave. I don't give a rip about the blue wave - cause I"m not a democrat...but I do care about getting us a blue president.  I'd actually prefer a temporary blue wave just so I can get some real stimulus (even if I won't fully agree with the method - our economy needs it and it will only happen with that).

If I'm looking at this right, Biden can win Arizona, Minnesota, Wisconsin, Michigan and Iowa......and still lose Ohio and Penn while claiming an electoral college victory

He needs Penn, he wont win all of WI, MI, IA.

But PA is acting normal big dem parts are coming in slower.

I agree with a lot of this. Looks like Trump will win Texas, but I would have been thrilled if Trump lost Texas but Cornyn won. Trump would go away and any honest reflection would tell President Biden that he’s only there because he’s not Trump- no progressive mandate, just a bit of calm.

If Biden/Cunningham both lose in NC, that makes it increasingly unlikely that you flip the Senate.

Graham already won quite easily in SC, despite being in a race with record-setting fundraising for Harrison.    Same with Ossoff in GA, KY for McGrath, spending doesn't equate to victory (or Ted Cruz's Senate race last cycle),

If you substitute Iowa's 6 for let's say Michigan's 16...

And Biden wins AZ/WI/PA...

 

That gets you to 268...

Wisconsin is already closing the gap, down to Trump still up 1.7% with 35% reporting.

He is not getting Iowa.  I don't think it will happen.

All those farm subsidies and Christian fundamentalists holding strong in western part of state I guess...it's crazy a state that voted twice for Obama (including caucuses) voted for Trump last time at 8-9% or whatever the final tally turned out to be.

Right now, looks like you gain AZ (Kelly), maybe Iowa (Greenfield over Ernst), Bullock/Daines and Collins/Gideon races just have no idea how to call them.   Hickenlooper over Gardner the only flip for sure and in the books so far.

Cunningham's scandal might be the tipping point there in NC, Cooper wins governorship but perhaps Trump the state overall by a few points.

Very easily ends up 50/50 tie in the Senate the way things are looking right now.

Arizona update hasn't changed in what seems like 30 minutes after originally showing up with such a high percentage already in...also, looks like Georgia is going to join the crowd with WI/MI/PA of counting into the night and subsequent days.
