I do think everybody here knows that.

But for all practical purposes....

[LuFins Dad]

Now comes the interesting part...Let’s see what the Republican legislatures do....

[jon-nyc]

You mean gerrymandering post census?

Or do you think they'll try to select rival electors?

[jon-nyc]

I think in terms of actual shenanigans it's far less likely given that Biden's victory is overdetermined.

I guessed 330. Damn.

So you missed Florida. Like many professional pollsters. No need to beat yourself up over it.

Got Florida right. Missed a few others.

And I actually wrote 329 as Jon mentioned in the other thread.

Biden won a couple of days ago. Let’s start talking about his promises and what his first year looks like.

The last two days are fake drama. Let’s look forward.

Sorry buddy, you don't get to turn the page on our gloating that easily.

We get at least until Trump concedes. Then we'll return to our normal levels of obnoxiousness.

You are gloating? Pyrrhic victory at best. Many people believe this is the ideal but formerly impossible outcome.

But you are right, gloat while you can.

Interesting tweet
Native tribal lands vs voting in Arizona

Native vote is clearly Biden

[jon-nyc]

Trump is attracting all the immigrants!

[LuFins Dad]

Gloating over .027%...Nice....

[xenon]

@LuFins-Dad what was Hillary’s margin?

Have to admit, I woke up this morning and the race is closer than I expected! Still don’t see Trump winning though. Odds don’t look good to get to 270 and there’s going to be a trickle in of mail in votes that will favor Biden overall.

Yep, your Biden landslide prediction stunk..

Did it?

“ Biden on path to win 306 Electoral College votes, same as Trump's 'landslide' victory in 2016”

[Copper]

If the recounts gave this election to Mr. Trump

And I don't think they will

Would that be as sweet as the victory over the evil Ms. Clinton?

Wow, tough question.

The delay and the apparent Biden victory would make it extra nice.

I guess it would be pretty sweet, but not as sweet as the victory over Ms. Clinton.

See the other thread. 0.057%. I’ll track Trumps as the votes come in. I think it’ll be close.

[Larry]

[LuFins Dad]

Wisconsin was a lot closer than I thought it would be. Frankly, I thought Michigan would led be closer between the two. It’s closer to blue collar PA and Ohio, which was Trump country.

[Larry]

I have a question for the Trump bashers:

Do you honestly believe people voted for Biden in the numbers being claimed? You actually believe that Georgia voted for Biden? PA??? You honestly believe Michigan voted for Biden???

Jesus....., HAAAAAAHAHAHAHAHAHAAAAAAAAAA||||

[jon-nyc]

I think a goodly number of those people voted against Trump.
