Half of Texas votes in with Biden still squeaking a lead

cnn saying biden ahead in texas 52/47

If Biden wins Texas....

It's so weird. I think Biden's shit and hate that whole 'voting for the least worse candidate' thing but still like staying up and getting pissed and watching the results...

Bit of a shift..

 

[nogojones]

It’s cos we can’t believe Americans are nasty enough to vote for someone who can’t condemn white nationalism [he rationalises]

Yup, but IIRC Beto had a similar lead, before Cruz came and cleaned up the late-declarers.

cnn saying if biden wins ohio he wins the election, biden ahead at moment

 

[Nine Bob Note]

That's bigly.

Not unpossible, but those California tech pros flooding into Austin make it cromulent at least

Georgia looks to be going for trump.

It does now.

Dunno. I find American politics unfathomable. I mean I just don't understand any of it.

 

[Ted Striker]

McConnel won his race. Not too surprising, but has implications if Dems don't get the Senate - nothing will get done.

Well yes because if he gets Ohio he almost certainly gets Pennsylvania, Michigan and Wisconsin

I think CNN are too partisan to be given much credence tbh.

what you think JTG ? They just seem to be counting votes and predicting from that.

No panic yet.

cnn also saying some states have more democratic votes because of early voting ie. mail-in

It's all too much, this seems way closer than 2016 though where it was off to a bad start from the beginning. Oh no he just got Arkansas. Isn't that Bill Clinton's old state?

Yeah re B Clinton but he was an exception it is a red state, nobody even had it as an outside switch this time.

 

[Ted Striker]

Ok now I'm scared

Texas is big and the blue bits are the big cities that can count votes faster. A bit like Flórida, the slower counties are the most rural and conservative

Tish and covfefe!

 

[Kaka Tim]

ohio look to be going for biden - but its very tight in texas.

 

[not-bono-ever]

got a bad feeling on this

 

[Sue]

Ok now I'm scared

Trump has to win Florida to stay in the race, Biden doesn't. Who knows though.

 

[Kaka Tim]

fuck. its going to be close isnt it?

 

[belboid]

We’re up to page 281 of the 2016 thread now, worry starting to set in.

 

[Lord Camomile]

fuck. its going to be close isnt it?

You would hope either way it'd give establishment Democrats something to think about.

Don't hold out much hope that they would, though...
