He did.

I think there's 50k+ votes left, are those all coming from blue counties or is there any need to be worried?

Not state, overall. They're betting markets from Betfair that show the likelihood of a candidate winning the election!

I remember when it started to show Trump as the favourite, dark days :bradley:

Do you feel him sir?

Y'all are gonna hate me but it must be said:

Dems lost House seats

Dems will most likely not win the Senate

IF Biden ends up winning, it will be an extremely close race

Everyone said Biden was the most electable. The Democratic establishment all convened to hand him the nomination.

But wait, there's more!

These underwhelming results all happened with RECORD turnout, which has been one of the main arguments Dems have been making: "If we vote, we win!"

It also happened with an opponent who is racist, sexist, fascist, a demagogue, authoritarian, nationalist, a pathological liar, violator of human rights, WAS IMPEACHED, tons of his staff are in prison, etc.

What does this say about the state of the Democratic Party?

This party is rotten as well. It’s the reason why someone like Trump got elected in the first place. The Democratic Party is a light version of the GOP. They are all about money and power, the GOP are just much more vocal and „radicalized“ in that manner that with Trump they have someone who doesn‘t give a **** anymore and make people love it what he does. The people give him recognition for being „authentic“ but in reality he is a straight-out fascist who besteals exactly those who are voting him. Dems on the inside happen to be nothing else and make deals with big companies as well but they managed to hide it with strong and charismatic candidates like Obama. He managed to kit the rising pressure coming from the difference between the rich and poor. Trump being elected though made that pressure unbearable and ripped the Dems apart, because he is provoking that corrupt side of the Democratic Party as the main enemy towards his followers and in return Dems are forced to give them proof that they are not but they are not able to reflect in such way. That‘s the main problem. And it‘s also the reason why Biden is now candidate.

Fox (and I think AP) already called Michigan for Biden. If there's a set of votes left uncounted then I'd assume they're from blue areas.

NYT has a good summary of the states still in play: https://www.nytimes.com/live/2020/11/04/us/trump-biden-election#the-path-to-270-here-is-the-state-of-play-in-states-that-could-decide-the-presidency

Summary: AZ unlikely to flip; PA looks really promising; WI + MI are won at this point; GA can go either way; we have a chance with NC but it will take over a week.

Nevada is close: 0.6% lead for Biden. If he loses NV, then it's game over.

If we get PA, neither NV nor AZ matters.

The Dems are projected to maintain their majority in the House but with less seats, and the Republican majority in the Senate is expected to stay in place.
