Election Night (+4) in America - Result: Biden Elected President (24 Viewers)

[GrandAdmiral]

I'll probably be flipping between CNN, NBC, and probably PBS if they have coverage.

What station you got?

The first polls will close with Kentucky and Indiana. Trump won both those in 2016.

KY:
Trump 62.5% 1.2M
Hill 32.7% 629k

IN:
Trump 56.5% 1.56M
Hill 37.5% 1.03M

These aren’t great bell weather states but could be good for seeing if the difference between R and D shrinks.

Exactly. No one is expecting Biden to win, but if Trump loses support from 2016, it could say something about where we might be going.

CNN does a good job of showing it by county. Suburban counties is where it is at.

Trump will obviously win Kentucky walking away. Will be interesting to see the margin in Indiana, though. Single-digits would be a fairly tepid showing for a Republican.

We also can watch the down ballot races in the early states to get an idea if the votes are all aligned or separated.

Indiana sucks. I live in a blue county and a blue neighborhood, but I only know three white, male, Democrats.

At least from this early indication, Republicans are turning out. That's a lot of voters at this early stage.

 

[CoolBrees]

So this is one of Nate silver’s dudes. Encouraging at least

Doc gave me benzos before my vasectomy. I absolutely loved how I felt. I didn't care about anything.

Let me tell you about this cruise I took once I found a good pharmacy in Mexico...

 

[GrandAdmiral]

Two minute warning on the first wave of poll closings, including Florida and Georgia...

 

[GrandAdmiral]

CNN calls Indiana for Trump (expected).

 

[DaveXA]

Fox

Biden: VA, VT

Too early to call: GA, KY, SC, IN,

 

[GrandAdmiral]

CNN is reporting early numbers in Florida show an under-performance by Trump from 2016. Still early.

 

[B4YOU]

CNN has looked at 3 counties in FL and Trump is down from 2016 based on percentage of vote.

 

[DaveXA]

Fox calling KY for Trump now.

Edit: KY as well.

No real surprises yet.

 

[GrandAdmiral]

CNN has looked at 3 counties in FL and Trump is down from 2016 based on percentage of vote.

And Biden is currently leading in Pinellas County (St. Pete and Tampa suburbs). Trump won in the county in 2016.

 

[GrandAdmiral]

Biden is now leading in Florida per CNN. Still early...

 

[Saint by the Bay]

I hate MSNBC's election night anchors but Steve Kornacki is an absolute beast on the big board.

 

[B4YOU]

It looks like there is almost zero 3rd party votes in FL 2020 and the 2016 3rd party voters are going Biden. With Pinellas at some 80%, that’s a flipped county.
