(28,928 posts)1. The rustbelt may trend differently than the SE. Lets wait and see. nt
Claustrum
(4,845 posts)2. My prediction was 320 votes, Biden winning NC, GA, and AZ.
I wanted it big too but it was just unlikely.

(115,669 posts)3. Hell, I'll take 270. 310 would be great, though.
Polybius
(15,381 posts)5. 270 would make me a nervous wreck
One Faithless Elector and it goes to state delegations.
The Velveteen Ocelot
(115,669 posts)8. Good point. Let's hope for 310.

(15,805 posts)4. I'll take 270
Im not that picky.
Polybius
(15,381 posts)7. With 270 we might lose
One Faithless Elector.
MissB
(15,805 posts)10. Ok, 271 then.

(29,322 posts)6. This reminds of me 2018
So many freaked out because Florida didn't go our way but we still won the house by a large margin.

Florida was a pipe dream and Trump spent everything there.

(25,960 posts)11. Guys, GUYS! It isn't even 9pm yet.
There is a whole lotta vote counting to go.
Polybius
(15,381 posts)13. I'm not really panicking
Biden will still win with 310 EV's or so. I'm just saying there's no way we're getting a landslide now.

Ok?

(7,365 posts)14. Not getting Texas either
Harris county is good but not good enough. Its going to be close, rust belt states will win or lose it... just like wuth Clinton
Codeine
(25,586 posts)16. Texas was a dumb fantasy.
I wish people would be realistic. nt
