I’m literally shaking omg. 

NYtimes says the margin is now down to 665 votes; I think because deep red Taylor county is helping us get there (since the red voters all vote in person).

A snapshot of final polling from FiveThirtyEight going into Election Day showing you just what a failure polling was this year and how badly off it was in nearly every state.

For those who still think they can rely on polling as an accurate indication of where people are.

Because people still believe that the country is not that divided, when half of the country just voted for a bloodthirsty fascist. That's why playing moderate does not work anymore. People are too polarized.

If I was a republican (can you imagine ) , I wouldn't vote for Biden solely because while Biden played a republican in sheep's clothing, Trump simply played a republican and if you were to choose, you'd choose the simpler option. At least that's what I think people do. 

Biden doesn't give people anything to get behind except for "get rid of Trump". 

This is the same in my country as well. Half the country wants me to literally die while people from the other half keep telling me "we should be nice they are people too". Like............... no.

Cindy McCain, Jon Kasich, Colin Powell just to name a few. Just saying stuff like your comment doesn't make it true.

Republicans REJECTED Biden. Trump got a higher percentage of Republican votes than in 2016.

OK, updated figures: Once Clayton county has 92,500 Biden voters, we will have GA and the race (NV ain’t going to flip red guys). Here’s the webpage with the numbers all of the media are using: https://results.enr.clarityelections.com/GA/Clayton/105401/web.264614/#/detail/1?v=269526%2F

Once Biden’s numbers are 92,500, you will know we have GA (unless we get a lot more than 15,324 Trump voters: Not bloody likely).

Will Georgia flip her peach tonight, or it will around early tomorrow.

Clayton county is burning the midnight oil counting votes. About every 70-80 minutes, they spill a little more tea. The last update—15 minutes ago—gave us 550 or so more Biden votes. So, based on that, this should be done in two or three hours. Perfect timing: GA will flip on my birthday. It’s a very very nice bday present to have, especially since I have lived and voted in GA.

If GA flips is it over or do we still need another state?

[Chris Evans 8,919]

let's go Georgia I believe in you

Even if it flips, it's not gonna be called for him. Too close.

So it won't go into his Electoral Vote count total until it is called. Meaning we need another state basically.

[caulixtla 2,170]

No, we don’t need another state if GA flips because we already have NV. Relax on NV fellow Little Monsters: Every time they update the NV count, Biden’s lead increases.

With GA + NV, it doesn’t matter how AZ/PA/NC go.

Also: 3,500 votes left to count, and they are overwhelmingly Biden. We’ll probably get 3,000 more votes for Biden in GA (compared to Trump) before the night is over.

I know, but NV hasn't been called so it doesn't count yet. Nothing will until they're called, meaning Biden isn't the winner until enough states have actually been called.
