(16,201 posts)My younger years in Virginia were always nail biters because of that. For instance in 2016, Drumph was ahead by 5% until NorVa dropped their counts.

(42,424 posts)Broward is at 50%. Dade now at 75%. It still looks good for our Dems.

(4,558 posts)May swing a few more times. Panhandle closed and bumped the rumpers, but Miami/Dade is still around 30% reporting, and has huge populations.
Still too early.

(6,979 posts)A buddy from Florida just called me to sooth my mind
He said what you said, and it's that there's a LOT of big blue counties haven't been counted yet. He said he feels good about Florida. I'm a nervous wreck. I'm here in California
I'll defer to my buddy ....

(14,565 posts)That's what I was concerned about. This is identical to 2016 when everything looked fine for Hillary until 8 PM.
I still think we might hold on narrowly.
But any polling with 3+ margins in Florida is a laughable poll.
Steve Schale is disturbingly quiet on twitter, just like this point in 2016.
Bottom line, Republicans are maximizing Florida better than we are. If we win it is solely due to independents favoring our side.

(31,261 posts)The red county vote is close to exhausted. Lots of blue county vote still to come.

(14,565 posts)There is a reason Steve Schale hasn't tweeted for 45 minutes. He is every bit as stunned at the Florida rural turnout and percentages as he was in 2016.
I suppose you still believe the genius polls giving Nelson the lead of 3-7 points?
If we win it's incredibly close but Florida races very seldom change hands after 8:45 PM

(6,253 posts)Gillum will lose.
It's purely a race thing. He had the excitement, but less votes than Nelson on a straight D ticket.

(26,164 posts)Old white Dems would vote for Bob Graham's daughter, but not Andrew Gillum.
