But since it's all mail in votes now I believe, chances are Biden will hold that lead. This map is interesting in that it shows what's going on in the Senate and the House as well.

Yeah, I agree with this. I think Biden is going to pull it out based on the above.

I am extremely angry and depressed. How the hell could over 65 million Americans vote AGAIN for that monster. What does that say about our country? How is anything going to get done if we don't have the Senate? The Repugs will want Biden to fail.

Maybe Biden will win Georgia. That would be a bright spot. I will feel a bit better once Biden wins.

From NowThis Politics:
LIVE RESULTS—BIDEN WINS MORE VOTES THAN ANY CANDIDATE IN U.S. HISTORY: We’re tracking the latest 2020 results. Overnight, Joe Biden developed narrow leads in key battlegrounds Wisconsin and Michigan, with Trump’s path in both states ‘looking bleak,’ according to a NY Times analysis of the outstanding votes. If Biden were to capture Michigan, ‘he would have the advantage in states that would push his total past the 270-electoral-vote threshold’ to win, the Times noted. Nationally, Biden has now received more votes for president than any other candidate in U.S. election history, with over 69.5 million. He leads Trump by roughly 3 million votes total, with millions more left to be counted. If the current trend holds, Democrats will have won the popular vote in 7 of the last 8 presidential elections (1992, 1996, 2000, 2008, 2012, 2016, 2020), despite not holding the White House for 12 of those years.


I think we need to look at changing this ridiculous electoral college. I do agree with BullDog though, it is depressing to realize that so many American could vote for Trump...AGAIN. But looking at the popular vote is heartening.

Another thing I think that could use a tweak is polling. I think we can all agree polls are not terribly reliable.

I got to thinking about that last night. The how and why, the many reasons why people will vote for someone who deliberately incites violence at the expense of others and assaults women, assaults the very social institutions that comprise the frame work of our society.

I think it can be traced back to ones roots: like, where you grew up, maybe.

I think it is traceable to ones perception of social rules and decorum, maybe even other reasons too.

But I feel there is an incredible burden to teach people why authoritarian values and tenets is not a good way to live life or such.

We have many examples of why authoritarianism is not the answer to solving problems in life.

Not sure if others would process this like I do. But this is just my thoughts.

Thank you Cin and Bulldog for uour posts today.

Just saw that Wisconsin went Blue. Way to go, Wisconsin!!

Now to pick up more senate seats. Atm, we have 44 vs 47 (gop). We need to be in the majority, in the senate too.

Go Blue!!!

Go Blue!!!

Great news on Wisconsin.

NBC has called Michigan for Biden! Almost there!

Some networks have called Arizona for Biden already, NBC has not.

He just needs Nevada, Pennsylvania, or Georgia (plus Arizona).

Indeed!!

I saw that Biden leads in Nevada, so it wont be long before Biden has the Electoral votes needed to hurdle us to the win.

He's not going to get PA soon, if at all, but Arizona is surely in the bag. I don't think he's getting Georgia, but he doesn't need it. He will get Nevada and that's game, set, match.

True story, Cin!

Secretary of State for AZ was just interviewed. Voters are over-performing in 3 major counties for the Biden win.

Also, Georgia voters are over-performing in favor of Biden, in the Atlanta area.

Georgia just might go Blue, soon.

I feel the excitement as we watch history in the making.

What a fabulous moment of joy, once we cross the finish line.

Biden and Harris are showing up as Leaders of the American Democracy, and heart felt thanks go out to all voters and organizers who put in over-the-top efforts to help save our country.
