Everything is going against Trump - except Miami-Dade.

Biden is overperforming across the board - in Ohio, Virginia (which wasn't called for hours in 2016), Georgia and North Carolina compared to 2016.

But Miami-Dade is going to cost him a chance to wrap up this election right now.

George W. Bush used that to trick people into believing that he had won.

Bush knew perfectly well that a full vote count would clearly demonstrate that he had lost. But he didn't care. He wanted to be president, democracy be damned.

as in 2016 took a long time for Hillary to get it, even with Kaine on the ticket.

And the fact that Biden over preformed all over Florida except for Miami-Dade also gives me hope.

ballots and send them in.

RW Cubans and Venezuelans went hard for Trump, likely bought into his 'Dems are socialist' message.

Latinos in general are trending rightward, is worrisome.

I’m a FL native, cast my first votes in Pensacola in the early 80s. Then I moved to B’ham, AL. Alabama is a red state, however, B’ham is in a historically blue congressional district. We recently moved back to the FL panhandle, OMG we weren’t prepared for the onslaught of trumpets.

CNN shows 89% reported there. tRump is under a lot of other places in FL, M-D seems kinda like an outlier.

off, so throwing out as many ballots as possible looks to have paid off, too.

Of course, they are not complying.

Don't concede Florida until these ballots are counted.
